Insider 4,775 Report post Posted September 4 Stable Update - 04 Sep 2024 04 Sep 2024 Hi Liz, I would like to officially confirm a new training partnership with my sister Michelle. Forming a partnership would come as no surprise, Michelle and I have been working closely together for the past 6 -8 months, feeling our way to discover our strengths. We believe our strengths complement each other, we enjoy hands-on horsemanship, horse development, and strategic race placement. By combining our efforts and ideas we expect to develop and strengthen our operation, and the combination will allow me to continue a hands-on approach to training. The combination of my training facility at Plumpton, agistment property at Miners Rest and the relaxed country environment of Michelle's property Nottingham Farm will add to what we believe is already a proven and versatile training operation. Michelle is a talented horsewoman with a bright personality, and we expect her expertise will be a welcome addition. Our aim is to maintain an impressive strike rate and to enhance the ownership experience. The training partnership of Patrick & Michelle Payne has been approved and we expect a seamless transition over the coming weeks. Thank you for your continued support, we look forward to the season ahead. With regards, Patrick Payne Black Kirrama 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Kirrama 1,768 Report post Posted September 4 I agree. From what I've seen they will have terrific placement of their horses, Liz, and hopefully your own one in the stable fulfills her early promise and pedigree.
