A beautifully-balanced, good-moving individual, Sir Canford is a dual winner for Select on the flat and has achieved an impressive rating of 117 over hurdles in just two starts over timber to date.
The second dam is littered with black-type. Not only is Alexander Divine a half-sister to three black-type performers on the flat, including Group 1 winner Ambivalent, she is also a half-sister to a Triumph Hurdle winner, Made In Japan.

Ali & Sam Stronge
Though the training licence is under former event rider Ali’s name, this burgeoning training operation based at Castle Piece Stables in Eastbury is very much a partnership, together with husband and ex-National Hunt jockey Sam.
With nearly 100 winners so far, Castle Piece Stables has seen a significant increase in capacity and Ali & Sam now have over 35 horses in training for 2021. With the use of private gallops, as well as all the facilities that Lambourn has to offer, it is a wonderful setting in which to train and we are delighted to have an involvement in the yard.
