Candy

Shanghai Candy litter sister to Rovera, flew round also today at Towcester in 28.69
Candy will stay all day like her sister and will be a great purchase.

Zebo

After a sensational 28.57 trial at Towcester on Sunday, Long serving owner Pete Symonds has took a 50% in Whizzing Zebo.
This 750 winner at Thurles runs on Friday at Perry Barr in a 660 maiden and should hopefully get Pete off to a winning Start.
50% share still available in Zebo @ £1000
First come first serve as always  

Marathon Message!

Due to the Coventry Half Marathon on Sunday the kennels will be closed to all owners, all roads in the area are closed.

Express/Magic

Shocking weather today at Towcester but a couple of winners helped warm the cockles.
Dublinhill Magic showed an iron will to deny Vanbasten in a good Open and in the last race Express Foster got out on a rubber band (3.99 sectional) to lead all the way and continue his rise up the ranking with a bloodless win over his rivals.
Special mention to Cluxtons Free who made Cloudbursting pull out all the stops in the Sprint Open

Apache scalps 'em

We scored a nice double at Towcester tonight, debutante Rusheen Black held on by the narrowest of margins to win his A5 and Holdem Apache showed real staying power to collar long time leader Ickle Tipp on the line for another short head victory

Cape flying again

Our bomb proof Cape Impact wins again!, this time at Perry Barr last night. This fella needs highlighting for his achievements since coming to Westview Kennels at the start of 2013.
Cape has run in 79 races all of which were Opens and has won 22 of them at tracks such as Perry Barr, Sittingbourne, Towcester, Monmore, Sunderland, Nottingham, Coventry, Crayford and Hove....take a bow son

Master Class

Express Master proves he can do it from an adverse draw, last night at Monmore from T4 he blitzed a good field to win as he liked in 27.93, the only surprise was how he was allowed to go off at 7/1 in a five dog race!

Pastures New

Long term friend and Assistant Trainer Paul Anderson has moved on from West View Kennels.

Paul has been a real back bone of the business for many years, but has set his sights on other things.

We are still good friends and I wish Paul all the best of luck in his new career.

Zebo


WHIZZING ZEBO,Black dog, March 12,

Bred Droopys Scolari x Express Spirt.


Zebo is not a flying sprinter, like his  Irish name sake, rugby union winger Simon Zebo,

But Whizzing Zebo is real stayer, who always gives 100% being placed in 50% of his races and will give his new owners some great nights out.

This fellow is a solid performer who runs a1 over 4 bends, but due to lack of 6 bends races in Ireland, he is wasted over this trip, He shows his true colours over 6 bends and has won a 750 open competition at Thurles.

In the UK Zebo will win many opens races over extreme distances and will be a real asset to West View Kennels.


Candy for sale

SHANGHAI CANDY, Black Bitch, Sep 12,
Bred Farley Blitz x El Torres.

Candy is a full Sister to one of Irelands leading stayers Rovera and recently contested a big final
At Newbridge,after winning the heat and semi final Candy finished second to the talented Pennys kazi in the Final.
This September 12 lady, is finishing like a steam train and  when stepped in up trip,She could be equally as good
As Rovera her sister.
Candy has only run 11 races, winning 3 and placed 3 times, she has yet to run over 6 bends, and i have no doubt
She will win many opens over 6 and possibly 8 bends.
If you want a top class stayer at real value for money, don't miss out on Shanghai Candy.

Freeeeeeeezing

The night started well at Towcester when Georgie Girl did everything right in the first race, coming through late and fast to win well, sadly due to the freezing conditions the meeting was called off after the 5th race.

At the same time in Birmingham the ultra consistent Cape Impact won again, a sprint Open at Perry Barr in a good 16.11

Sunday at Towcester

Prominent showings from our runners at Towcester today without getting their nose in front. Kippers Usain did everything right but peak fitness told on the run in, same comments applies to European Queen who could not quite match strides with the on fire Mash Mad Blackie but will come on a ton for the outing and Cluxtons Free ran well in defeat and despite running wide finished third to Mays Teejay.
