It's always exciting time for owners when the task of naming their racehorse comes around. Naming horses is a real perk of ownership and many of our owners put plenty of time to find a good racing name. The horse's name stays with them for life so it's important to find a good one. We do now and again get the odd silly name suggested or come out of a syndicate draw and roll our eyes but at the end of the day it's the owner's call. However, we think that the three new names here are excellent.
A latest name on the list is Alpha Magic, a fine gelding by Ardad out of Piece Of Magic. He's a half-brother to one of our best known horses, the one and only Where's Jeff.
Now in his eighth season on the track Where's Jeff this year passed the £100,000 prizemoney milestone when recording his tenth career success.
Alpha Magic will run in the colours of Andrew Pollock who also owns Where's Jeff. We hope that his new recruit turns out to be as good as Jeff who has now raced 58 times and has an amazing strike rate of 17%.
