Bouggler, who is trained by Emma Lavelle, won the John Smith's Mersey Novices Hurdle at Aintree on Saturday.  He was the least experienced of the 17 runners but showed great courage by winning this good quality race.  This has supplied Tobougg with his first Graded winner over hurdles and Bouggler looks a great prospect for the future as he is only four years old.

Home Page

East Burrow Farm was established as a Thoroughbred Stud some 20 years ago alongside a commercial farming enterprise. The farm became solely dedicated to horses in 1999 when Double Trigger arrived here to commence stud duties.

Before the arrival of Double Trigger the stallions Out of Hand, Jester and Opera Ghost all stood here and alongside Double Trigger the stallions Gorse, Systematic and for one season, on behalf of Darley, Bests of the Bests stood here. Although the form is entirely geared towards the production of Thoroughbred horses, a small herd of North Devon cattle graze the paddocks and our own hay and haylage is produced.
