RIP Juggles

Mar 7, 2018

It is with very sad hearts that we had to make a very brave decision and kiss goodbye our dear little Juggles last night.

Many of our owners, friends and family have got to know this little rascal over the past 12 years and appreciated what an instrumental part of our team Juggles was.

The best babysitter on four legs, his calm presence would help keep any race day nerves at bay for his big companions.

Over the years he was a compulsory wingman with horses such as Special Scene, Golden Charmer, Bahamas, Tuscan Fire and his most famous companion, British General – even the bravest of soldiers need a Lieutentant. 

His most recent project was our quirky Near Queue, one which he conquered in his usual no fuss manner. Simply give him a brush and bucket of “big horse” feed and he’s happy!

Around our stables and home he has been a friend and entertainment to so many children, especially our Alex, and he worked his way into the heart of many of our past and current team members.

Thank you Juggles, for all the love, giggles and nibbles you have provided.   Waddle over that rainbow bridge and find yourself reunited with a few special friends. We love you and will miss you.
