The Club Horses

Strong Team

Strong Team has won 4 hurdle races 2 of these for the Chris Grant Racing Club, he gave the CGRC members their first 2 winners in the Clubs 1st year. 

He likes good ground and is very adaptable as he can mix it up on the Flat, over Hurdles & Chasing. 

Ballingtogher Boy

Ballingtogher Boy was the 3rd Winner for the Chris Grant Racing Club, winning a Handicap Chase at Newcastle he also had 2 placed runs a 2nd & a 4th both at Sedgefield.

We always thought he liked soft ground but his win came on good ground so he may be more versatile than we thought!!

Knight of Magic

Knight of Magic is the newest CGR Club Horse was bought as a 4 year old in Ireland during the Summer. He was already broken in so gave us a head start, we gave him an easy couple of months to settle in to his new home when he arrived here. He is an enthusiastic horse who is enjoying his work.

He is going to run in bumpers over the winter and is hopefully one for Club Members to look forward too and have a bit of fun with.
