Nick Gifford Racing Club
3rd January 2012
We are very excited to show you Horse number 2 for our racing club. Moy River is a three mile chaser in the making, he is at least 16.2hh and by the french stallion Indian River out of an Old Vic Mare. He was recently second in a point, that he should really have won! We have an official launch morning on the 29th January with a morning on the gallops, a glass of fizz and nibbles for all our members. For those that cannot make the 29th we are having a smaller gathering on the 15th January also. We are very looking forward to seeing you.

Old Dreams is officially the first Nick Gifford Racing Club horse and will be in the yard for Christmas. She is by the stallion: Old Vic and out of a 3 times chaser winning mare called "I Can Imagine" . We are very excited about her, she has an excellent pedigree and looks like a very hardy sort. There are still places left in the club if anyone wishes to join. Nick is having a look at a potential second horse for the club next week.
