I’ve been ringing around today and the news is mixed.
Lilac Moon has jarred one of her feet and it’s badly swollen. It’s probably nothing major but we’re having a scan to be sure - she was down to run at Lingfield on Tuesday, but has obviously been left out. It’s annoying as she’s been in […]

I’ve been busy this week working on something that I’ll publish some other time. Kings Head was supposed to run on Friday but we pulled him out after the overnight rain. Lord Snooty ran in the US last night coming third.
My first four bets of the week, all at decent prices, all came second - I […]

It was a big night last night, with Lord Snooty finally justifying our belief in him by winning his maiden in the US in smart style. I went to bed feeling exhilirated. My Blackberry rang early this morning, showing Pete’s name.  Pete never rings early unless it is bad news - as I picked it up I was […]

We’ve had a decent offer for Lord Peter Flint which is subject to a vet’s exam - if he passes he’ll be sold. […]

Captain Hurricane died of a heart attack this morning on the gallops. He had recently been transferred to Tom Dascombe and was doing his first serious piece of work this morning. He ran a bit flat and the jockey decided to get off and walk him back to the stable - a few minutes later […]

I have a few interesting runners coming up. Shepherd’s Warning runs over a mile tomorrow at Ayr - she is carrying far more weight than she would do in a handicap and will no doubt be a very big price but could run well. Lord Snooty finally comes out on Friday at Newmarket and I’m […]

Nothing runs for me during the week, but a fair bit of action at the weekend.Â
Prince Ary is down to run on Saturday at Market Rasen in a race that the Pipe’s have won on several occasions. He ought to have a decent chance. Baldovina has two entries for the Saturday and one at Windsor on the Monday […]
