LandnStars


Both Land 'n' Stars (left) and Sergeant Cecil (below) had illustrious careers on the track earning respectively £211,513 and £726,531 in prize money.

However although they only met twice on the racecourse, it is a wonderful coincidence that they both now find themselves enjoying a second career at The British Racing School.

Sergeant Cecil


Both horses have settled in well to their new life at The British Racing School.

The first time they met at Sandown in July 2006 in the Listed Addleshaw Goddard Stakes where Land 'n' Stars, at 16/1, got up on the line to beat Sergeant Cecil by a neck. Rivalry was continued a month later in the Goodwood Cup where Sergeant Cecil was able to turn the tables and finish fourth behind the top stayer Yeats with Land 'n' Stars finishing 6th. However that season Sergeant Cecil went on to land the Lonsdale Cup at York, the Doncaster Cup and the Prix du Cadran at Longchamps whilst Land 'n' Stars went on to finish a creditable 5th in the Melbourne Cup in Australia at 200/1.
