Darryl Rows It Alone!

Moore passion will result in more success

After 30 successful years of training horses, Ivan Moore has decided to retire and take up a more passive role in his recently licensed grandson’s yard.

The Sporting Post reported in August 2017 that, in what was thought to be a first for the local racing scene, popular member of the KZN training ranks, Ivan Moore, had joined forces with his grandson Darryl.

Warren Lenferna writes on www.goldcircle.co.za that young Darryl Moore has now taken the plunge and gone on his own.

Darryl says that he is extremely grateful to his grandfather for all the support and guidance he has given him over the years.

Moore said that this had enabled him to step up and take the yard to the next level.

Ivan will still be active in the yard and Darryl will be able to call on his expertise at any time. “I do believe that I have youth, experience and a huge amount of passion and hopefully this will bring new owners into the yard as well as the racing industry,” said Darryl.

“I have a solid base of current owners and would like to take this opportunity to thank them for their continued support and trust in me. I look forward to growing the stable along with my grandfather,” he added.

Darryl said that he was excited for the great things still to come.

He was also an assistant for many years to the now retired Charles Laird and Darryl’s father, Robert, is the chief riding master of the South African Jockey Academy. He is based in Gauteng.

Two of the stable’s shining stars are, Ballymaine and Unbelievable Lad, and there is no doubt that when racing is in your blood, it is in your blood.
