'Funny little live wire' Bulmer Bank in retirement in Leicestershire



'Funny little live wire' Bulmer Bank in retirement in Leicestershire


Posted: 09.54 • 10 Jan 2026 • Rehoming


Bulmer Bank joined us as a yearling from Goffs in 2021. Making his debut at Pontefract in July 2023 he carried in the colours of owner Brian Padgett and latterly David Scott.

Bulmer Bank raced 14 times at nine different tracks, including three runs at York and earned £9,253 in prizemoney.

Unfortunately Bulmer Bank fell out of love with the racecourse and he was rehomed to Leicestershire with Clare Bunn in summer 2025. Clare renamed her gelding 'Dash' after the white dash-shaped star on his forehead.



"Dash has been enjoying the snow with his friends," says Clare. "He's started his retraining now after his holiday and is such a funny little live wire."

"He's a bit of a hooligan but there's no malice in him at all, so you can't help but laugh at him."

We look forward to hearing how Dash progresses and if you have an ex-Mick and David Easterby racehorse please do drop us a line and some pictures!
