Edmond Kent of Ballyhampshire Stud, breeder of Grade 1 Christmas Hurdle winner Verdana Blue (Getaway)

Vincent Finn , breeder of Grade 1 winners Poetic Rhythm and Waiting Patiently – both by reigning Champion Sire Flemensfirth

“ If success is measured by strike-rate, surely the jumps breeder of the season is Vincent Finn. The County Wexford farmer produced just three foals in 2011 and two of them – both sons of Flemensfirth born in midsummer and sold within 32 lots of each other at the Tattersalls Ireland Derby Sale three years later – turned out to be Poetic Rhythm [Challow Hurdle] and Waiting Patiently [Ascot Chase], who each landed Grade 1 prizes in the space of seven weeks this winter. ”

“ Verdana Blue was a queen, she was always really good looking with a lovely temperament. To breed a Grade 1 winner at this time of year is fantastic and to beat Buveur D'Air ” RACINGP O ST.COM , 26 Dec 2018
