🏇 Racing Overview

Georgie’s Malt is a five‑year‑old National Hunt horse who has competed in both National Hunt Flat (bumper) races and novice hurdle contests. She has raced mainly over staying trips around 2 miles to 2 miles 4 furlongs, where her stamina and staying potential have been tested against her peers.

As a young mare still gaining experience, she has put in a number of respectable efforts, placing in bumpers and showing promise when stepping up in trip for her hurdle starts. While a win has so far eluded her, her progression suggests she could continue to improve as she gains confidence and race‑craft over obstacles.

🧬 Pedigree Notes

Georgie’s Malt is by Order Of St George, a stallion known for producing horses with stamina and staying ability — ideal attributes for National Hunt racing. Her dam, Mrs Malt, adds further National Hunt influence and a staying profile that suits longer distances and the physical demands of hurdles.

This blend of staying bloodlines supports her adaptability over extended trips and provides a strong foundation for continued development over obstacles.

🏠 In Training

Under the care of Ewan Whillans, Georgie’s Malt is being carefully campaigned with a focus on gaining experience and enhancing her stamina and jumping confidence. Whillans has run her in races that suit her staying pedigree and allow her to progress at a natural pace, aiming to strengthen her overall performance as she continues her National Hunt career.

Connections are likely to keep her in staying hurdle contests and bumpers where she can build on her form and potentially secure her first success under rules.
