Toby Moore to Make Kempton Debut for Godolphin on Valdorcia

The Godolphin apprentice steps up after experience at Charlie Appleby’s Moulton Paddocks, including work on Newmarket’s Rowley Mile.

Overview

  • Moore is booked for Friday’s 4.05pm 6f fillies’ novice at Kempton Park.
  • He partners Valdorcia for trainer Charlie Appleby and will use a 7lb apprentice claim.
  • Valdorcia, a daughter of Oasis Dream, finished third on her sole start at Kempton in September when ridden by William Buick.
  • Moore joined Appleby’s yard this season after pony racing and showjumping, riding out with senior jockeys and gaining racecourse practice in May.
  • Reports differ on whether Moore is 16 or 17, and his father Ryan has been sidelined since August with a fractured femur.
