ONE thing I am sure about the Kavanagh family is that they know how to party, and I can only imagine their joy at the weekend when the father and son team of Peter and Roderick recorded a Group 1 double, with a difference.

In the instance of the Group 1 Juddmonte Middle Park Stakes winner Vandeek, this was a case of Roderick’s pinhooking skills being put to best use, purchasing a yearling son of Havana Grey (Havana Gold) and reselling him for a sale-topping amount at this year’s Tattersalls Craven Breeze-Up Sale.
