John Thompson Racing

WINNER | YVONNE’S JOY ⭐️🐎

The 3yo daughter of Written By braved the gloomy Newcastle weather and finally got that maiden monkey off her back! 🙌

She was given a peach of a ride by Kerrin McEvoy, who had her in the right spot when it mattered to get the job done 💪

Fabulous to get another winner on the board for owner Neville Begg and connections. A patient ride has certainly paid off with Yvonne’s Joy!

Huge congratulations to connections! 🎉🥂🐎

Winner | Clear Proof ⭐️🐎

What a way to start Winx Stakes Day at Randwick!

Great to see Clear Proof back in the winner’s circle for back to back wins, and what a fabulous partnership he’s formed with Dylan Gibbons. Missing the kick, it was a tougher run than he’s used to, but credit to the horse for getting the job done.

Congratulations to all connections — fantastic to get another win on the board 👏

Congratulations to connections, a fabulous way to start the weekend 🏆

DOUBLE WINNERS | CLEAR PROOF & DORADUS ⭐️🐎

A fantastic afternoon at Canterbury with Clear Proof and Doradus both saluting for the stable! 🙌🏼

Clear Proof kicked things off with a dominant performance. The 5yo Justify gelding was given a fabulous ride by Dylan Gibbons, who now knows him like the back of his hand 💪🏼

Doradus settled beautifully for Zac Lloyd, maintaining a strong gallop throughout to lead and win by almost 2 lengths. A terrific ride from Zac and a great result for his connections. 👏🏼

Two winners on the card and a great reward for all the hard work that goes into getting these horses to the races.

Congratulations to all connections! 🥂🐎

🏆 Winner | I’m Relevant ⭐️
A terrific victory and the maiden is out of the way for the exciting two-year-old son of Written By, carrying the famous Begg family colours. 👌🏻

The penny is well and truly starting to drop for ‘Neville’, who put it all together at Wyong with a confident, well-judged ride from Dylan Gibbons.

Congratulations to all connections on a deserved result. We can’t wait to see what the rest of this preparation has in store! ⭐️
