BIG RACE SUCCESS

Potters Corner was the first horse to take Christian’s training career to next level and allow him to really establish himself, earning £226k in prize money including significant wins of the Welsh and Midlands Nationals in 2019. He continued to run with credit in cross country races, losing out by the narrowest of margins at Cheltenham in 2021, before being retired in the Winter of 2022, to live a quieter but just as content life with Harriet Tudor.

Horses as special as Potter are hard to come by, but since his retirement Christian has proved he is no one time wonder…

2021/22 was a landmark season for Christian. Less than five years since sending out his first Winner, he celebrated 34 Winners and over £659k in prize money. He landed the Vertem Eider Chase with Win My Wings and 10 minutes later the Coral Trophy with a 1-2 from Cap du Nord and Kitty’s Light. And later that season celebrated another memorable 1-2 in Scotland’s most prestigious jumps race, The Coral Scottish Grand National, courtesy of Win My Wings and Kitty’s Light.

Christian’s forward thinking and driven mentality has ensured his big race success didn’t stop there and he backed it up last season when winning The LK Bennett Swinley Handicap Chase with Cap du Nord, and then The Vertem Eider Chase, The Coral Scottish Grand National and 7 days later The Bet 365 Gold Cup with one horse - Kitty’s Light.

Once again showcasing his remarkable ability to outline and execute a plan to the minute.
