[Outsider]

Summerghand has been retired and is moving to Newmarket to help young riders.
Won me some money over the years.
Hope he enjoys his new career.

Yes, he was a very difficult horse to catch right. The last thing you wanted was for him to sneak a place, and him going up a couple of pounds.

But a well earned retirement.

Impressive Badger Beer winner Al Dancer has been retired.

For me, that was a career best from the grey and I was looking forward to seeing where he went next.

But it's great that he's getting out relatively unscathed and can enjoy a long and happy retirement.

That’s good to hear, DO. Yes I think his finest moment too...what a lovely note to go out on!

He was a proper horse -disappointed loads of times but had an incredible ability to bounce back.Great to see him go out on a winning note.
