Is everything okay at your end Bert? You haven’t updated for a long time.

Good to see Swindon Town continue their strong start to the season, you must be very pleased.

Hope to see you at the County Ground soon.

Agree he shaped well and the further they went the better he looked. Think it is a good idea to start them opff over a shorter trip as it learns a horse to jump at a quicker pace. Look forward to him in big staying races over the next 2-3 years.

Promising start over fences, finishing fourth behind some very useful horse. Looks like he needs further though as he was quickly outpaced down the back straight and if Nick can brush up his jumping he could have a decent chance on his next start.

Theo needs as much rain as he can get - he’d also like a few more furlongs. If it continues to rain then he might have a chance. He’s a very decent animal who we’ve liked from day 1 but he’s still inexperienced and this is his first run over fences.

One positive - he’s a natural chaser and hurdles was never going to be his thing. He may take to fences better than some others.

Oops - forgot to mention him. I was really pleased with his run last time - he seems to have grown up a lot this year. I’m hopeful of a result today but I couldn’t truly say I’m confident as his last run was the first one back for a while and he might get hot again today. Fingers crossed.
