A half-share in the group-placed Zoology (GB) (Zoustar {Aus}) has been sold to Australian trainer Ciaron Maher, Qatar Racing announced on Thursday. Trained by James Ferguson for his first five starts, the 3-year-old broke his maiden at Yarmouth in September and won his sophomore bow at Southwell two starts later in an all-weather novice in April.

New Energy (Ire) (New Bay {GB}), the 40-1 runner-up behind Native Trail (Ire) (Oasis Dream {GB}) in the 2022 G1 Irish 2000 Guineas, will be gelded and will ultimately continue his career under the care of Ciaron Maher and David Eustace in Australia after being acquired by Jamie Lovett's Australian Bloodstock following a lengthy courtship.

Star Of India (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}), who won the Listed Dee S. at Chester for Aidan O'Brien before disappointing in the G1 Cazoo Derby, has been snapped up by leading Australian trainer Annabel Neasham.

Following a record 2021 season, the Henry Cecil Open Weekend will be held Sept. 17-18 at Newmarket. Each September, racing and equine enthusiasts descend on British racing's headquarters for a behind-the-scenes look at Britain's best-known racing yards. Last year featured several training yards, including George Boughey and Harry Eustace, Charlie Fellowes, James Ferguson, Roger Varian and Simon & Ed Crisford. The highest number of yards opened to the public in 2021, and record crowds raised £60,000 for the event's chosen charity partners. The 2022 Henry Cecil Open Weekend will continue...

NEWMARKET, UK--It's not often that a camera crew follows a filly on her way into the ring but the confidence behind Crystal Estrella (GB) (Iffraaj {GB}) was well placed at Tattersalls with Sir Michael Stoute's charge selling to Team Valor for 275,000gns on the final day of a record-breaking July Sale. An impressive winner of a 10-furlong novice at Goodwood in May, Crystal Estrella will remain in training with Stoute, resuming her career under the banner of Barry Irwin's operation, who recently stated their intention to concentrate on racing in...

Within the same week that Thady Gosden joined his father John on the joint-training licence at Clarehaven, across town a metaphorical baton was passed from father to son at one of Newmarket's most historic stables, Park Lodge.  This has been both home and place of business to James and Gay Eustace for a little over 30 years and the time has come for their eldest son Harry to convert his extensive and diverse apprenticeship into becoming a trainer in his own right. James has thus stood aside for Harry to...

James Eustace, who has trained for 30 years, will be followed by his son Harry, 32, at Park Lodge Stables early in 2021, Racing Post reported on Tuesday. Harry Eustace has been an assistant trainer to William Haggas for four years. "I've had a wonderful time with William and Maureen Haggas but have decided the pandemic was not a good enough reason not to start training," said the younger Eustace to Racing Post. "It's been long in the planning to take over from dad and I'm very much looking forward...

The temporary suspension of racing in Britain has been a blow but two British-trained runners flew the flag high on the other side of the world when William Haggas's stable enjoyed a group-race double at Rosehill in Sydney in the early hours of Saturday. He may have had only a few hours' sleep but Haggas was all smiles on Newmarket Heath later that morning after Young Rascal (Fr) (Intello {Ger}) won the G3 Iron Jack NE Manion Cup followed by a hard-fought victory for yard favourite Addeybb (GB) (Pivotal {GB})...
