Our Coloured racehorse placed 4th in his first race

Postby angrovestud » Wed Apr 25, 2012 10:00 am

Just thought I would share our Joy as our Homebred coloured racehorse Angrove rumbaba was placed 4th in his very first race here in the uk in a open national hunt flat race.
The going was terrible heavy ground on turf it had been raining for a fortnight on and off.
The syndicate members had a wonderful day and are very much looking forward to him racing again in the near future.
This make's Angrove rumbaba the first highest place coloured horse in the UK.

Angrovestud,

Excellent...great!
Would you like to document the race along with the participants along with their pedigrees. This event is worth a very good documentation. This is history in the making.

Thanks again for sharing this valuable news.

Excellent. This case is worth all the added information we can supply.
In fact, his next start should be posted here in this thread in order to provide continuation to his groundbreaking career.
Once again, Angrovestud, congratulations!

Angrovestud,

Yes, I watched the complete video and really enjoyed every second of the race. Certainly ANGROVE RUMBAMBA performed very good for a first starter. I think we should document his career for future references.
Thanks again!

Well Done Heather that was brilliant :)

I've only just managed to watch the video and that was very impressive for his first race!

He is definitely a racehorse..no doubt about it.

Your preserverence has paid off..you found the right trainer and you found the right type of race for him.

That was heavy going over that distance and he stayed for sure :)

I hear more champagne corks popping in the future :)

You must feel so proud and I'm so pleased for you...I got quite emotional watching that and especially hearing you all cheer 'Come on Rummy!' xxxxxx
