Join our racing club for enjoyable days at the races
YARD NEWS
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.
Happy Horses – Happy days
- Take a look at the two new stars joining us this year!

Coffee Morning. May 23rd 2026
We had an enjoyable Coffee Morning on Saturday 23rd May
It was nice to see our horses at Langton Wold Gallops in the morning. Doing a nice breeze together with positive feedback from our Jockeys. Drinks and refreshments followed back at the yard where we had a lovely catch up as we’re getting ever nearer to the exciting times ahead at the races!
Welcome to Newstart Racing!
HEY CRACKERS!
It's good to see that HeyCrackers is now reaching the later stages of his recent medication programme, and we will be looking forward to seeing the results of his next scan within the next 4 weeks. I am hopeful to get a clear result as he is showing no concerns around the yard or with his daily exercise on the Walker. When he returns to training, he will be the judge of his own progress and we will take the time with him as he needs and deserves, with a hopeful return to the track for the All-Weather season. We’re looking forward to being back on the track with our team this month.

Pinpoint (GB)
Sire Due Diligence (USA)
Dam Primrose Place. (GB)
Sex Gelding
Date of Birth 09-04-2021
After a pleasing piece of work with our potential runners on our Coffee morning, Zak Wheatley (3lb) felt Pinpoint would come on for the work, and just needed a little more time with a further edge of fitness, rather than taking the plunge for our first time out, with the entry we had in place, at the front runners track, Beverley. We have continued with his work, and we are learning more about his character all the time. We now have further entries in place this month to give us a couple of options, but we are aiming towards the 5½f Sprint at Wetherby, a track where he has previously run and finished 2nd/10. This gives us confidence that he can handle the track when all the conditions are right for him. His form on paper suggests he really can be quite a versatile sort. He has Won at 3 different tracks and been placed at a further 6 different tracks in total. Local Jockeys we often speak to who have ridden him on the racecourse before, say he has more ability than his handicap rating suggests, so hopefully we can keep him sweet and willing to show us what he’s capable of for our team.

Sally Anne's Dream (GB)
Sire Wusool (USA)
Dam Mey Blossom. (GB)
Sex Filly
Date of Birth 02-04-2021
It’s nice to see we now have some dates in the diary for SallyAnne’sDream. She really is a sweet filly to be around, so much so, it seems she has previously been miss understood with her little quirks and characteristics, which have not always been the easiest to understand and overcome. We still have plenty of work to do with her towards her confidence and overall enjoyment. Certain things she has come accustomed to, from possible previous discomfort, over time can become habit, which can take time and continued reassurance to rectify. We are now at the stage where we can be confident we have done the best we can for her to make her feel as comfortable as possible when she’s out on the track. We are at the point where she can hopefully feel less anxious and that racing is more enjoyable for her now.

Little Vitty joined us in April 2014, Finishing the turf season with a great win at Redcar that year. He has continued to show his form throughout his time with us, winning 4 times and being placed in the first 4, visiting the winner’s enclosure and bringing home the prize money, for a massive 50% of his runs with us.
On New Year’s Eve 2020, Vitty ran at his previous winning course for his 100th run of his career. He now reaches his teenage years and having had 4 wins for us, will now have a happy retirement here in the yard. He continues to work with our younger horses.
Ad Vitam continues to be the legend of the yard and we have been asked to make an honourable journey out for a family who are very close to our hearts. Vitty has been working through faultless training for what will be an emotional, but very rewarding day to be involved with.
