Graded Success


      Kingston Queen Winner at Warwick

It was a good week for the yard with three winners on the board from six runners at a 50% strike rate but as usual, things did not all go smoothly! A typical racing week!  Our first runners of last week did not come until Thursday at Doncaster and we travelled up there in search of a bit better ground but it basically rained all day and so that went out of the window!  October Hill did not enjoy conditions by the time it came to her race at the end of the day but she ran okay to be fourth, she will be better returned to a sounder surface.  Read more...

It is Friday 13th today, just in case anyone needed reminding!  There are three jumps meetings today at Chepstow, Fakenham and Kelso but the stable does not have any runners.  There is one all-weather flat card at Wolverhampton and in Ireland they race on the all-weather at Dundalk.  Rian Corcoran has travelled up to Kelso today for two rides for Rebecca Menzies so fingers crossed the long journey will be worthwhile for him.  Yesterday, Way of Stars ran a good race to be second, just getting nabbed on the line.  He settled much better in his first time hood, jumped very well and looked like he had done enough to win a prolonged duel with one rival to just get caught close home.  Jack Tudor thought we didn't stop and our four year old galloped all the way to the line and it was a nice performance.  He has a good attitude and will be winning plenty of races in the future, over hurdles and on the flat.
