We are absolutely delighted that we have bought Surrey Lord at the Goffs Doncaster Store NH Sale to go into training with Toby Lawes at his Henfold Stables (the yard where Rough Quest was trained to win the 1996 Grand National). Toby thought Surrey Lord was one of the top 5 movers at the sale and was amazed when Alan King the underbidder pulled out especially to let Toby buy the horse for £35 000 although it has cost us a crate of wine!

This Getaway gelding is one of the most stunning physicals I have ever seen, he is a big 16’2 with bags of scope, he is beautifully balanced and covers the ground with incredible ease. Despite being big, he is so well put together that he won’t take years to come to hand, especially with the forward pedigree that he has. I think this horse is unbelievable value, I thought he was worth double what we paid. This horse is every inch a Saturday performer, I can’t wait to see how he develops”  Toby Lawes.

Lord made his debut coming 3rd in a bumper at Uttoxeter, and then backing that up with a close 5th at Warwick. Another close up 4th in his final bumper has given him the track experience to go novice hurdling in March.
