Sadly this morning we lost Balladonia- the dam of Group 1 winner and French stallion, Wootton Bassett- to laminitis. A lovely , kind mare and wonderful flagbearer for LCS, she left her mark on the breed.

Santa comes early to Laundry Cottage Stud Farm thanks to Patrick and Maria Bryceland’s Bluebird Cafe Ice Cream, Nougat wafers, Flakes and Raspberry Sauce...!!

Every time I hear the hated word”quarantine” I am struck how phonetically close it is to - the much preferable- “ Carntyne”. Of course , it was from there that Billy Connolly’s “3 men” set out to join the parish. Well worth a google!!!

Last night I watched ,on GSOperaTV ,the D’Oyly Carte 1966 film of The Mikado with the incomparable Valerie Masterson,John Reed, Kenneth Sandford etc. Great escapism back to better days!

Congratulations to Stephen and Rebecca Hillen for their Group 1 success with Via Sistina, bred at Laundry Cottage Stud Farm.

Laundry Cottage Stud Farm - breeders of the sire of the winner of the Qipco Champion Stakes ( King of Steel by Wootton Bassett), and breeders of the second horse, Via Sistina. To keep it in the family, the winner was bought for owner Kia Joorbachian by son in law Alex Elliott.

Great weekend for Laundry Cottage Stud as Via Sistina wins Group 1 Cox Plate in Australia, top sire Wootton Bassett also bred here has two Group 1 winners in France and That’s Amore ex Rubira wins impressively first time out at Newbury.
