26th July - BLACK TYPE FOR FIRST SEASON SIRE INDESATCHEL
Following Bold Bidder's close second in the £200,000 Weatherbys Super Sprint, Galtymore Lad gets his sire on to the black type scoresheet with a brave second in the Listed Winkfield Stakes at Ascot, and up to seventh place in the European first crop sires' list.
21st July - MAJOR CADEAUX - THE NEXT GENERATION
The retirement of CADEAUX GENEREUX (by Young Generation) has been announced. A Champion 3yo Sprinter he has had a long and memorable stud career, being a broodmare sire of note, as well as a Sire of Sires. We are delighted to be standing his multiple Group-winning son MAJOR CADEAUX at a realistic and competitive fee. He's a gift!
19th July - BRAVE BIDDER!
BOLD BIDDER was making a lightning fast reappearance, only 4 days after her victory on Tuesday, when taking part in the super competitive Weatherbys Super Sprint on Saturday. It was a big ask for the flying filly and she had to yield in the last 100 yards but put in an incredibly brave performance to take second place, thus propelling her sire into the top ten European first season sires list, from limited opportunities. "[She]...showed tremendous speed up the middle of the track....Her natural pace should see her pick up black type" Racing Post
14th July - TWO WINNERS IN TWO DAYS FOR INDESATCHEL.
The Kevin Ryan-trained BOLD BIDDER "who continued on the up....and showed good attitude under pressure" won her second race last night by 1½ lengths to justify favouritism and give her sire his second winner in two days.
13th July - THERE IS NOTHING LIKE A DAME!
Winning debutante TEDSMORE DAME vanquished 12 other runners by a length to become another winner for her Classic-placed sire INDESATCHEL. She is a half -sister to Alexander Ballet (dam of Gr.1 winner HEARTS OF FIRE), and Day By Day and Thought Is Free, both Listed placed.
8th July - RED HOT SON OF FIREBREAK!
FIREBACK won the valuable Totesport Stakes Heritage Handicap at Newmarket yesterday, a race that has been won by some smart sprinters in recent years. His trainer believes he's still unfurnished and there is more to come from this fiery sprinter.
23rd June - Another winner for INDESATCHEL. Home-bred BOLD BIDDER won by an impressive 3½ lengths at Carlisle over 5f. She's a half-sister to four winners, including the Stakes placed Right Answer and her dam Quiz Show is a half-sister to the dual Gr.2 winner and Gr.1 broodmare sire MIND GAMES.
18th June - Royal Ascot boost for INDESATCHEL'S sire Danehill Dancer as LILLIE LANGTRY won the Gr.1 Coronation Stakes.

8th May - ANOTHER WINNER FOR FIREBREAK - FIREBACK won in convincing style on his first time out this season by 3 lengths at Lingfield and there is a chance he could head to the Britannia Stakes at Royal Ascot.

18th January - HOT OFF THE PRESS
HEARTS OF FIRE is likely to head straight for the 2000 Guineas on 1st May. The son of FIREBREAK is currently a 25-1 shot with Bet365 for the first British Classic of the year and underlined his credentials with victory in the prestigious Gran Criterium at San Siro in October. The form of that win has been franked by the second, Vale Of York, who subsequently landed the Gr.1 Breeders' Cup Juvenile at Santa Anita in November. RP
