👑 KING SNITZ 👑

An exciting c**t with a bright future!

King Snitz gets the job done at Warrnambool today, putting together a really nice performance to secure a well-deserved win.

A big thank you to Tony Ottobre for his continued support of the stable — it’s fantastic to get another winner for him.

A great ride from Declan Bates, and as always, a huge thank you to our team at home for all the work that goes in behind the scenes.

We’re really looking forward to seeing what’s ahead for this exciting young horse. 🏇

🏆 HIGH FALLS — WINNING DEBUT!

A perfect start to the career for High Falls, getting the job done impressively on debut. 💥🐎

A lovely ride from John Allen, giving him every chance and guiding him to a fantastic first-up victory.

A big thank you to owner Gerry Ryan for his continued support, and to our whole team for all the work that goes in behind the scenes.

It’s always exciting to see a young horse deliver on race day — especially at his very first start! Plenty to look forward to with this boy. 💚💙

A very special honour for our team, with Shane crowned JJ Houlahan Champion Trainer and Andy Win named JJ Houlahan Champion Horse. 🏆

To have both awards come back to our stable is something we are incredibly proud of. Andy has given us some unforgettable moments this season, and to see him recognised as Champion Horse alongside Shane receiving the Champion Trainer title is a huge reward for the work that goes on behind the scenes every single day.

These awards carry even more meaning because of the name they bear. Jim Houlahan was a legend of Australian jumps racing, and to receive awards created in his honour is a genuine privilege. His contribution to the sport, and particularly to jumps racing, leaves a legacy that continues through generations.

congratulations also to Tom Ryan on being crowned JJ Houlahan Champion Jockey — after another outstanding season in the saddle. 👏

Congratulations to all of the other award winners and everyone recognised. Jumps racing is made special by the horses, jockeys, trainers, owners, staff and supporters who put so much into it, and it’s an honour for our team to be amongst them.

Most importantly, thank you to our entire team and our owners. These awards might have Shane and Andy’s names on them, but they belong to everyone who has played a part in what has been an incredible season for Shane Jackson Racing.

🏆🏆 ANDY WIN — GRAND NATIONAL HISTORY 🏆🏆

From a maiden hurdle winner in May to a dual Grand National champion in August.

It’s hard to put into words what Andy Win has achieved.

Just two weeks after winning the Grand National Hurdle, Andy stepped up to the bigger fences today and produced an incredible performance to win the Grand National Steeplechase — completing the coveted Grand National Hurdle–Steeplechase double.

In doing so, Andy becomes just the third horse since 1930 to win both Grand Nationals in the same season.

What makes it even more remarkable is where he started. Andy won his maiden over the jumps at the Warrnambool May Carnival only a few months ago. Since then, he has continued to rise to every challenge we have put in front of him, culminating in two of the biggest prizes in Australian jumps racing.

Maiden winner in May.
Grand National Hurdle winner in August.
Grand National Steeplechase winner two weeks later.

An extraordinary horse and a season we will never forget.

A brilliant ride from Tom Ryan, who has been with Andy throughout this journey and knows him so well. To share a piece of Australian jumps racing history together makes today incredibly special.

To Andy’s owners, thank you for trusting us with him and enjoying this ride alongside us. And to our entire team — this achievement belongs to every person who gets up early, works late and puts so much care into these horses every day.

Only the third in nearly a century. Two Grand Nationals. One very special horse.

Andy Win. Grand National hero. 💙🏆🏆

Andy Win Etches His Name into Grand National History🐎

What a special afternoon for our team as Andy Win claimed the time-honoured Grand National Hurdle, delivering the stable back-to-back victories in one of Australia’s most prestigious jumping races.

It was a faultless ride from Tom Ryan, who produced Andy at exactly the right time to score a memorable win on the biggest stage.

A huge congratulations and thank you to Andy Win’s wonderful owners for their continued support and faith in our stable. We’re incredibly proud to share this special moment with you.

As always, a heartfelt thank you to our dedicated staff whose hard work and commitment behind the scenes make days like this possible.

To win one Grand National Hurdle is special. To win two in succession is something we’re immensely proud of.

Congratulations to everyone involved! 🏆💚
