Stables P. Merven

P. Merven

Stable manager: M. Patrick Merven

Trainer: M. Patrick Merven

In his first year as trainer for the late Wahed Essa Stable, he did fairly well but he went through a rough patch the following year when he opened up his own stable. He could only saddle one winner.

From then on, things got better for him. In 2011 a massive injection of funds infused new life in the stable and, despite some bad luck stories, Patrick Merven realized his best season so far.

Started training : 1995 (absent from 2004 to 2006)
Record (at 31st December 2011) : 145 wins and 485 placings for 1652 entries with a total prize money of R. 22,819,250
Best season : 2011 ( 19 wins and 87 placings for 213 entries with R.5,511,000 in prize money)

Jockey: C. Segeon
Cédric Ségéon, At 19 and at his first attempt at the Champ de Mars, he was victorious on West Bar None while competing in The Young Stars Competition in 2002. Since then, he has become such a very skilful rider that his trainer has signed him for a third consecutive season. Last year, he had another successful season for Maingard Stable. Born in France, he has ridden most of the time overseas. He has thus ridden at numerous equestrian centres in South Africa, Belgium, Tunisia, Malaysia and Macau and has recorded about 400 wins. He is rarely called in the Stewards’ Room as his rides are mostly very neat. This 28-year old French rider is a reputed hard worker with an eagerness to win. He rides at 54kg.
