Back in August this year, we broke the news that our star jumps mare, Annie Mc, had been covered by top-class French stallion, Doctor Dino, as part of her first steps in her new career as a broodmare.

Fast forward a few months, and we're delighted to bring you this latest update as Annie continues her journey back on British soil at Carisbrooke Stud Farm.

Situated in the beautiful and peaceful Wiltshire countryside, we sent Coral Ambassador and Annie's number one fan, Chris Hughes, down to meet Martin Grassick [Stud Director] to find out how things have been since Annie's arrival, and to learn all about what's likely to happen over the next few months as she continues her pregnancy.
