Ridden by Chris Catlin the horse was returned at a good each way price of 25-1. Posted 18 August 2008 Welcome Approach returned us to winning ways today by taking the opener at Wolverhampton in a close finish.

Posted 16 August 2008 Paddy Jack finished a good 2nd at Ripon today and finished only a neck behind the eventual winner after being caught inside the final furlong. Paddy Jack was returned at a generous 10-1. Posted 12 July 2008 Paddy Jack and Casino Night gave us two second places at Hamilton today, finishing at 5-1 and 9-2 respectively. We are just missing out so the next winner cannot be far away! Posted 8 July 2008 Paddy Jack kept on gamely to finish 2nd to the 7-4 favourite at Pontefract this afternoon. Ridden by Chris Catlin the horse was returned at 25-1. Posted 26 June 2008 Just Joey ran a tremendous race at Bath yesterday to finish 2nd just a length behind the favourite who finished very fast and just caught our horse close to the line. We had to change jockey when Chris Catlin fell ill and Alan Daly took on the ride at the eleventh hour. Posted 28 May 2008 Almaty Express gave us our first win at Great Leighs, and our 3rd winner this month, when coming home under Darryll Holland today. Almaty was returned at 9-1 to follow our 25-1 winner last Monday. Posted 26 May 2008 Just Joey, running in blinkers for only the second time, ran on gamely at Carlisle this afternoon to win by 2 lengths.

In an open betting race, Almaty, who gives us our 4th winner of the year, was returned at 7-2. Posted 9 February 2008 Another Rum ran a courageous race from the front at Ayr today only being overtaken by the 11-10 favourite approaching the last fence. Another Rum still finished a creditable second at 5-1 in very testing conditions. Posted 20 January 2008 There will be a memorial service for Brenda in Middleham Church next Thursday, 24 January at 1.30. All are welcome.There will be family flowers only at the funeral but any donations may be sent to The Brain Research Trust, 15 Southampton Place , London, WC1A 2AJ. Posted 16 January 2008 On behalf of all of us at Ashgill, particularly Brian (Smiler), we would like to sincerely thank everybody for their kind messages of condolence and offers of help following Brenda's tragic death yesterday. We are all obviously still in a state of shock and disbelief about the untimely nature of Brenda's passing but we will keep everybody informed as best we can and will advise about funeral arrangements at the earliest opportunity. Posted 11 January 2008 Almaty Express made it 3 out 0f 4 for us in 2008 by leading all the way in the opening race at Wolverhampton today. Almaty finished 2 and 1/2 lenghts from the second horse and was returned the 11-8 favourite. Posted 3 January 2008 2008 got off to a double start this evening with 2 winners at Wolverhampton. Almaty Express was the first to triumph winning the opener at 9-2. Elusive Lady then won the second race in good style to complete a double for us and a hat trick of wins for her, this time being returned the 11-8 favourite. Posted 26 December 2007 Elusive Lady triumphed again at Wolverhampton on Boxing Day to finish our Christmas on a high and become our 16th winner of the year, a new record for us. Elusive Lady won comfortably by a length and a half and was returned at a generous 5-2 after her win at the same course last month. Posted 23 November 2007 Elusive Lady became our 15th winner of the season by storming home at Wolverhampton this evening. Elusive Lady tracked the leaders before going clear inside the furlong to win by 4 lengths. The horse was returned at 100-30. Posted 21 November 2007 Another Rum finished a very creditable 3rd in the Northumberland National at Hexham today. The horse finished only 4 and 5 lengths behind the second and third finishers after 4 miles. The race was won by the 5-2 favourite and Another Rum was returned at 40-1, an excellent return for any each way backers. Posted 28 October 2007 Elusive Lady gave us another 2nd place at Wolverhampton last night, our third this month, finishing only 3/4 of a length behind the winner. Elusive Lady, who was ridden by William Buick, was returned at 10-1. Posted 26 October 2007 Rue Soleil ran a very game race at Ayr today to finish 2nd at 9-1, beaten only 2 1/2 lengths.

Posted 30 August 2007 We returned to winning ways today when Linden's Lady won the apprentice handicap at Musselburgh after being given a very good ride by Alan Creighton. Lindens' Lady was returned at 14-1. We nearly had a swift double when Welcome Approach was just nailed on the line to finish 2nd in the following race. Our day at Musselburgh finished with another close second when Crosby Jemma just failed to catch the winner of the 1 mile handicap, finishing 2nd at 10-1. A very nice place treble for the day including a 14-1 winner. Posted 25 August 2007 Welcome Approach ran a great race at Beverley today and held the lead coming to the line but unfortunately was just pipped at the post to finish 2nd at 10-1. Posted 22 August 2007 Paddy Jack just missed out on a win at Carlisle today in a very close finish to a good race. He eventually finished 3rd only a short head and a head behind the winner and second. Posted 14 August 2007 Ginger Pickle stayed on well under top weight at Nottingham this evening to finish in a very good 3rd place. The horse, who did not get the clearest of runs during the race, was returned at 10-1. Posted 11 August 2007 Elusive Lady gave us another horse in the frame when finishing 3rd but being placed 2nd at Redcar this afternoon. Elusive Lady was returned at 11-1.

Posted 8 August 2007 We just missed out on another winner this afternoon when Welcome Approach was narrowly beaten in a photo finish at Pontefract. We had earlier had a 3rd place with Paddy Jack at the same meeting so another place double for the stable. Posted 5 August 2007 Last nights winner was our 13th of the season bringing our owners prize money so far to over £50,000. To a £1 stake we are currently showing a profit of £67.12 for the year to date. Posted 4 August 2007 We had another winner at Hamilton tonight, this time at 28-1, when Miss Havisham stayed on gamely to hold off the challenges of a number of the more fancied horses. Posted 3 August 2007 Willyn gave us another winner today, staying on well in the claimer at Thirsk to win by 1 3/4 lengths. The horse was claimed by Jim Goldie for £10,000 and we wish him every success with the horse in the future. Willyn was returned at a starting price of 7-1 and paid £9.80 on the Tote for a £1 stake. Posted 2 August 2007 Linden's Lady ran very well at Musselburgh this evening, finishing 2nd at 7-1, beaten only by the 5-4 favourite. Posted 31 July 2007 Bret Maverick was placed again today, this time staying on well to finish 3rd in the first race at Beverley. Our second runner , Drink To Me Only, managed to come through to also take 3rd place in the final race at the meeting which was a bit chaotic after a flag start. Our 2 runners therefore gave us a place double on the day. Posted 28 July 2007 Jim Martin gave us another 33-1 winner today staying on well to win on his debut at Newcastle. Posted 27 July 2007 Willyn finished a good second to the 4-1 co favourite at Wolverhampton today with the other co favourite unplaced. Willyn was hampered 5 furlongs out but then made headway on the outside and was ridden out to take 2nd place near the finish only 1 1/2 lengths behind the winner. Posted 17 July 2007 Ginger Pickle triumphed at Beverley this afternoon to give us our 5th winner in 9 days and was returned at the magnificent price of 33-1. We came very close to having our 5th winner last night at Wolverhampton when Attacca, running off a mark of 48 and carrying a 6lb penalty, missed out by only a length and a quarter to finish a great second to the favourite who was rated at 71. Posted 14 July 2007 We had another magnificent double at Hamilton this evening. First Rue Soleil ran in at 10-1 closely followed by Simply St Lucia at 2-1 to give us a 32-1 double. Only 5 days ago we had the double mentioned below and that same evening Bret Maverick finished a close second at Ripon to just miss out turning the 407-1 double into a 2039-1 treble! Posted 9 July 2007 Attacca stormed to victory to give us an 11-1 winner at Musselburgh today and Drink To Me Only followed up by winning the next race at 33-1 to give us an incredible 407 - 1 double at the meeting. Posted 8 July 2007 Paddy Jack made a very promising debut at Ayr today finishing 3rd only 2 1/2 lengths behind the winner. Paddy Jack was returned at 14-1 so a good return for anybody who had an each way flutter. Posted 4 July 2007 Rue Soleil finished as well as anything today to finish 4th at 10-1 behind the even money favourite. The 2nd, 3rd and 4th horses finished together only a couple of lengths behind the winner. Posted 28 June 2007 Miss Havisham came from last to first in the final furlong at Yarmouth today, under a strong ride from Darryll Holland, to give us a 5-1 winner. The filly showed good promise at Carlisle last time out and proved that form by today's victory. The filly was bought in so we will be able to carry on working with her as she continues to grow and strengthen to hopefully go on to more success in the future. Posted 28 June 2007 Welcome Approach ran on ground that does not best suit him at Carlisle yesterday but still managed to finish 3rd only 1 3/4 lengths behind the winner. Welcome made good headway from 1 furlong out and kept on well to be nearest at the finish. Posted 25 June 2007 Linden's Lady ran a great race at Musselburgh this afternoon in ground that does not particularly suit her. She finished 2nd only 3 lengths behind the 3-1 favourite. Another runner returned at good each way odds, this time 20-1. Posted 24 June 2007 We had 2 good 3rd places yesterday at different meetings. First Welcome Approach made good headway in the final furlong to finish only a head behind the 2 horses who dead-heated for 1st place at Ayr. Later in the afternoon Rue Soleil put up another good performance to finish only a short head and 1 1/4 lengths behind the winner in her race at Redcar. Both horses were returned at good each way odds of 16-1 and 12-1 respectively. We hope to get that little bit extra very soon to return to winning ways. Posted 22 June 2007 Willyn ran a promising race at Ayr today finishing less than 2 lengths behind the winner. Willyn keep on going to the line which is a good sign for future races. Attacca also had a pleasing run looking more like his old self when finishing a good 3rd at Musselburgh this evening. Posted 8 June 2007 Simply St Lucia ran another good race at Uttoxeter yesterday finishing 5th. Posted 23 May 2007 Simply St Lucia ran a really good race at Kelso today finishing 4th in the novices hurdle at 33-1. The horse was running on well at the end. Posted 22 May 2007 Welcome Approach was very unlucky at Beverley today. Pinned against the rails by the eventual winner, jockey Phillip Makin had to stop riding for a couple of strides. The horse rallied well after this set back and only failed to win by the slenderest of margins finishing 2nd by a short head at 50-1. There was a stewards enquiry but the positions remained unchanged. Posted 14 May 2007 Rue Soleil ran another solid race at Musselburgh today finishing 3rd. She was running on at the end and only finished 2 1/2 lengths behind the odds on favourite. Posted 9 May 2007 Just Joey came in 3rd today at Beverley, what a price, 40-1! Posted 8 May 2007 Crosby Jemma ran a fine race at Catterick this evening to finish second at 14-1. Crosby Jemma was only beaten by the very well fancied favourite, which statred at odds on of 4-6, by 1 and 3/4 lengths. Posted 26 April 2007 Limestone vastly improved on his first race by running into fourth place at Beverley today at 12-1 and shows promise for the future. This latest result means our last 3 runners have finished 4th, 2nd and 4th. Posted 25 April 2007 Rue Soleil ran a great race at Catterick today to finish second at 33-1, beaten only by the 9-2 favourite. Our horse stayed on well to take 2nd place close home. Posted 24 April 2007 Willyn, our second 2 year old runner of the season made a promising debut at Pontefract yesterday. Whilst finishing 7th, and placed 6th after a stewards enquiry which she was not involved in, she finished within 3 lengths of the winner. Willyn was slow into her stride but was finishing like a train at the end and could well have won had the race been a little bit longer or she had started better. A very promising first run. Posted 20 April 2007 Crosby Vision made his seasonal debut at Thirsk today. He ran a very promising race finishing a close 4th beaten only by 2 necks and 1/2 length. Crosby made headway from 2 furlongs out and stayed on to be closest at the finish. Posted 4 April 2007 Come and visit us at the Middleham Open Day this coming Friday, 6 April, we would be delighted to see you. Posted 28 March 2007 Attacca ran a very creditable race at Wolverhampton yesterday to finish 3rd on his first appearance of the season. Darryll Holland was very pleased with the ride and is convinced that Attacca is a sure fire winner for this season. Posted 9 March 2007 Grand View ran a superb race to win for us at Lingfield today. In a very competitive race Grand View was returned at 6-1.
