Estijaab was a fantastic win although unsighted since, announced the other day it was being spelled again until the autumn.

btw - I own and race Ch. More For Me, it was the first start for me after buying him from Steph of Fox Run

And the amazing [color=blue]GCh. Palermo wins Golden Slipper Stakes! Congratulations Cricket Hill! Will he become another FFChampion?
