John Leeper, is a colt very close to our hearts. Named after my late father, John Leeper is by the undefeated champion, Frankel, out of six-time Group One winner Snow Fairy.
In 2020, John Leeper made a creditable racecourse debut at Doncaster as a two-year-old towards the end of the season.
However, it wasn't until his reappearance at Newcastle in April as a three-year-old, did we get a glimpse at his breath-taking ability, when he stormed home to a four-length victory under a hands and heels ride from Hollie Doyle.
Next stop was the Listed Fairway Stakes at the Rowley Mile where William Buick took the ride. After taking a keen hold early on, John Leeper travelled strongly to take the race by a length and three quarters.
