Legal Rights is a 3-time winner on the flat and a 3-time winner over hurdles and has recently moved to trainer Toby Lawes. He was our star of the 2021/22 National Hunt season and we hope a fresh approach in a smaller yard will see him bounce back this forthcoming NH season.
Legal Rights is a very consistent 7-year old who raced 10 times in Germany and France before joining the HOTSR string, and he finished out of the Winners Enclosure on just 2 occasions! His 3 wins were eye-catching on soft ground which saw the horse battle very gamely, sticking his neck out for each victory over 1m2f-4f. He was recommended to Gary Moore and HOTSR and ticks a lot of boxes.
On arrival at Gary’s stables Legal Rights transformed physically hugely and after two hurdle runs under his belt Gary decided to give the horse some time, geld him and put him away for the summer to mature – and it really was the best thing for Legal Rights!
The 2021/22 season was his best and after two encouraging races on the flat it didn’t take long before a return to hurdles meant Legal Rights was on a roll with his winning ways! He relishes the softer ground conditions and did just that when winning for the first time over hurdles at Fontwell Park on Boxing Day and then at Hereford under Niall Houlihan on 4th January. He wasn’t quite 100% coming out of his subsequent race at Huntingdon, but after some time to freshen up he returned to Fontwell Park on 27th February and showed class as he won the Class 4 contest under Josh Moore well.
Unfortunately Legal Rights lost his way a little last NH season so it was decided he’d enjoy a change of scenery for 2023/24 and he’s now in training with Surrey based trainer Toby Lawes. The fresh approach and new routine seems to be one Legal Rights’ is enjoying and we saw a marked improvement in his attitude when he made his debut for the yard at Huntingdon in November 2023. He’s since had a minor wind issue that has been rectified and hopefully we can see Legal Rights back to winning ways in the New Year!

Hunter’s Light by Dubawi
Hunter’s Light was a fantastic racehorse over 9-11f and after winning his first race at the age of 3, his successful career took him all over the globe! He won numerous Stakes races including 3 Group 1’s and was rated 119.
Hunter’s Light is a young son of the sensational Dubawi and from the same family as Darshann and Too Darn Hot. He has already proved he can produce decent types, being the sire of high class Group winner Irska and two particularly impressive French Novice Hurdlers. He retired to stud duties aged 7 and his stock share his head-down attitude to racing (something Legal Rights does too!)
Lutindi by Adleflug
Lutindi won on her racecourse debut over a mile before being stepped up in trip to 10 furlongs and being placed twice, including a Listed race. She has produced 3 foals of racing age Legal Rights, Larry Lobster (3yo) who has raced 4 times and was placed twice, and 9furlong winner Lubiane.
Her Sire Adleflug was top class over 12 furlongs winning a Listed race and the Group 1 Deutsches Derby in Germany as a 3yo before winning a Group 1 in Germany at the age of 4 and being placed in 3 Group 1 races. He went onto become the leading sire of 3yo’s in Europe.
