Scampi
- Sire: Nayef Dam: Preveza
Very sadly Scampi has recently been retired due to a career-ending injury, but he will always be remembered as a flagbearer for RaceShare. In a truly outstanding season in 2023, he registered his first win of the campaign at the prestigious York Dante meeting. Scampi then went on to finish second in the £150,000 Old Newton Cup at Haydock and then sixth in the £200,000 John Smith’s Cup at York, both at very high-profile Saturday race meetings. In mid-August, Scampi landed his second win of the season at the Shergar Cup, running to a Timeform rating of 103. A very large group of owners were there to see him at Ascot and Lee Mottershead, writing in the Racing Post, reported that the eruption from the crowd when he was called the winner in the photo finish ‘exceeded any heard at this year’s royal meeting’. Then on another memorable day, he returned to York for Europe’s richest handicap, the £500,000 Ebor- he travelled very well through the race but failed to stay the extended distance. Scampi has proven the calibre of the RaceShare buying team and their ability to purchase high quality bloodstock. He now heads off to an honourable retirement, never to be forgotten by his owners and all the RaceShare Team….
