Hannah's First Winner
Saturday, July 09, 2011 RSS Feeds

Thursday was a day we'll all remember for a long time: the day that Hannah rode her first winner aboard our stable favourite Kadouchski.

Anyone who watched the race will doubtless agree that Hannah, who turned 17 on Monday, gave him a very cool ride indeed, sneaking up the inside rail in the home straight to beat former champion jockey Seb Sanders on the favourite by three and a half lengths.

We're delighted for Hannah, who has been riding out here since she was 14 and started full-time the day after her 16th birthday last July.

It's also fantastic to get another win on the board for Kadouchski. He's won five times now, on the turf and all-weather on the flat and three times over hurdles. After schooling really well over fences with Will Kennedy last weekend, he will be facing the bigger obstacles once the ground softens up a bit.

He's a wonderfully versatile and consistent performer for a small stable to have. Hannah had her first ride on Kadouchski back in December, so we're thrilled that he has also provided her with her first winner. There'll be plenty more to come.
