We wish all our followers a Happy and Successful 2026
Welcome to Newstart Racing!
Looking forward to a New Year in racing in 2026. Although we seem to have had a quieter season it's nice to know that we have horses within our team that are versatile and able to show their potential on local turf tracks such as Beverley and Doncaster for the future, with more great days out to share.
Hey Crackers and Very Classy are a great pair to work with, going out together or on their own, whichever suits best at the time. A very enjoyable pair to look out for
Happy Horses – Happy days

HEY CRACKERS!
19.12.25 – Southwell. 1m – 4th/9. btn: 2¼L J: Zak Wheatley (3lb)
From a fine draw of 4, HeyCrackers jumped sharply, being one of the first three horses out of the gates, and was then able to tuck in nicely, gaining the cover we wanted. They settled comfortably into 4th place, although a little keen in running. As we headed into the home bend we were travelling strongly, just off the leaders. The eventual winner tracked our early pace, tucking in behind us early on. As we were still running a little keen, we just didn’t travel as easy round the bend as ideal, but this will just improve over time. Swinging into the home straight Zak (Wheatley) was able to pick up the pace once more and HeyCrackers straightened up well. As they were starting to come under pressure up the home straight, they momentarily looked as if we were going to loose some ground, but with a strong ride from Zak (Wheatley) HeyCrackers stuck to the challenge, and although approaching the final furlong he became a little intimidated by ‘Latin’ (Winer), he stayed on gamely for 4th place. The improvement he has now shown is just the start of an exciting career for him, and all of us involved with him. We have options in the future of stepping up in trip and various tracks, as he has proven to be a rather versatile gent so far. Looking forward to the future with this young man!

Very Classy (4yr Filly) (Aggie)
It will be nice to see VeryClassy back at the track throughout January, to get the season started and no doubt her trusty companion AdVitam will be taking the journey with her. Looking forward to working throughout the year with our current team and meeting new faces and friends along the way! With many thanks for all your support throughout the year!
