Trainer Tom Dascombe will leave Michael Owen's Manor House Stables after a 12-year stint.

Dascombe's greatest success during his Manor House tenure came when winning the G1 Irish St Leger with Brown Panther (GB) (Shirocco {Ger}), the popular stayer raced by Owen and Andrew Black whose numerous group wins also included the G2 Goodwood Cup and G2 Dubai Gold Cup and placings in the G1 St Leger and G1 Gold Cup at Royal Ascot. On the opposite end of the distance spectrum, Dascombe trained Angel Alexander (Ire) (Dark Angel {Ire}) to win the Ayr Gold Cup, and Kachy (GB) (Kyllachy {GB}), a group-winning sprinter who placed behind the likes of Blue Point (Ire), Battaash (GB) and Quiet Reflection (GB).

Owen said in a statement, “After more than 12 years as trainer, Tom Dascombe will be leaving Manor House Stables in the new year. We have shared many great times and races together and created memories that will last a lifetime. I would like to place on record my own personal thanks for all his hard work and support over the years. We part on great terms and everyone at MHS will miss him and wishes him the very best for the future.”

“Colin Gorman and the rest of the MHS team will naturally oversee things once Tom departs and it will be very much business as usual until we appoint Tom's replacement,” Owen added.
