Paul’s success raging on

Paul’s success raging on New

Date: 28-Aug-2026

PAUL Butterworth’s career has a habit of turning on lucky moments, such as trainer Barry Miller offering the then 31-year-old greenhorn a job.

Butterworth bought Whistling Loren cheaply in 2020. Two years later, after 11 starts and four placings, she fractured a knee and her racing career was over.

Paul and her other owners put her through the sale ring. There was no interest, so they bought her back.

Paul told the story in the raceday stalls at Ipswich recently, after his filly Raging Raider, the first foal out of Whistling Loren, won her first race.

Whistling Loren is by Vancouver out of Miss Loren, who has also produced the Paul Snowden-trained Raging Force, by Cosmic Force, and Vantorix, by Captivant.
