Sales, Runners, Dancers!
We had just the three runners last week and while Order of the Dance could not back up his Ffos Las win, Harry Junior made a pleasing handicap debut at Worcester to be second. Hindsight is a wonderful thing and we should have taken Order of the Dance out following rain on the day, which softened the ground too much for his liking. Jockey Callum Pritchard did the sensible thing in pulling him up and we will make sure he is back on a sounder surface next time. Read more...

There is a good day of racing to look forward to today, with the first day of Wetherby's Charlie Hall meeting, the first day of a big jumps meeting at Down Royal, jumping at Uttoxter and the first day of the Breeders Cup at Del Mar this evening. We have one runner today, Mancero at Uttoxeter. He runs in the 3.40pm handicap hurdle over two miles and Jack Tudor rides. This will be his first start in a handicap and he gets a nice three year old allowance in this race. He does have to bounce back from a disappointing run at Newton Abbot last time but that was too bad to be true and he has had wind surgery since. He was never going the last day, which is unlike him as he shows a great attitude at home so hopefully we can put that down to an 'off' day and see his true colours this afternoon. This is only his fourth ever career start, having won on debut in France, he ran okay to be second on his British debut. His handicap mark looks fair and I would hope he will be thereabouts come finish. The original favourite for the race is already a non-runner and we are currently 6/1 fourth best in the betting.
