Horses in Training


HE’S A GENTLEMAN (IRE) (2019)

Dark Angel x Cut No Ice

Trainer, Hugo Palmer says “He’s A Gentleman is an old friend of ours and has been in the yard for a few years. He is a tough, consistent horse, who goes well on the AW and most grounds on turf. He is a very consistent horse and has three wins on the board for the club so far. He is a really fun horse to train and can hopefully he can pick up some more victories for the Michael Owen Racing Club”


No Nay Never x Moment Juste (2022)

No Nay Never (USA) x Moment Juste (GB)

Trainer, Hugo Palmer says “She is by No Nay Never, who stands at Coolmore and is one of the leading European stallions at the moment. This filly didn’t race as a two-year-old but she is a strong, good-looking filly, who I expect will make her debut on the track during the summer. I think she has a really exciting future and I am delighted that she is part of the Michael Owen Racing Club.”
