Argento and John Whitaker Win the Ivy Stakes at Olympia

It has been another fantastic day at Olympia for AES horses, with John Whitaker and his famous Argento ending the day as victors in the 1.50m Ivy Stakes, jumping clear in the jump off and a second faster than their nearest rival after taking and perfectly executing a particularly tight and risky turn. Bred by Keeley Durham and owned by Clare Whitaker, Argento is an Elite stallion with the AES, which means that breeders using him are entitled to free foal passports for his offspring.  

One of John's close rivals was Kevin Staut with the 9yo mare S&L Through the Looking Glass (Arkan x Hairos) who ended up in 4th position after having one pole down in the jump off. Bred and owned by Jodie Sizer, Through the Looking Glass is a highly promising mare who won the CSI5* in Oslo earlier this autumn.
