Race Update

from Bermuda Racing 22/05/2026

Sea Venture made a highly impressive winning debut in a notably strong 6f EBF Fillies’ Maiden at Haydock on Friday, a race with an excellent recent record including Group 1 winner Wild Beauty and last year’s Group 3 Princess Margaret Stakes scorer Fitzella.

Despite showing signs of greenness leaving the stalls, the daughter of Sea The Stars travelled strongly throughout before producing a devastating turn of foot to win by an extending three lengths under Danny Tudhope. The Listed Chesham Stakes at Royal Ascot looks to be an exciting next step!

Bermuda Racing’s Simon Scupham reflected: “We knew going into her first start that George thought she would give a very good account of herself. That turned out to be some understatement! It is a little bit unusual to have a Sea The Stars filly open her account over 6f so early in her two-year-old career. We are certainly all now ‘seeing the stars’ after that performance… Royal Ascot here we come!”

Training Update

from Bermuda Racing 04/05/2026

Sea Venture, the smart two-year-old daughter of Sea The Stars, is taking everything in her stride as she continues her education with George Scott. Settling in well at Eve Lodge, she has been enjoying her canters around racing’s headquarters in Newmarket and continues to progress well. A very straightforward filly with a promising future.

Naming History

As with each horse under the Bermuda Racing banner, the Scupham family pay homage to the beauty and history of Bermuda through carefully considered naming selections. Sea Venture takes its name from the famous 1609 English vessel deliberately grounded by Sir George Somers upon Bermuda’s reefs after sustaining damage during a hurricane in the Atlantic. It was a courageous decision which ultimately saved all those on board and led Somers to discover the beauty of the island he became so deeply fond of, that he would later return there, eventually dying in Bermuda. The event became one of the defining moments in the island’s history, helping shape Bermuda’s mythology and even inspiring elements of Shakespeare’s The Tempest. The story of the ‘Sea Venture’ became one of resilience, survival and new beginnings - the moment a crisis turned into the founding of something enduring, and an apt inspiration for this exciting filly, combining adventure, determination and a spirit of discovery.
