Jack Tudor is in action with a few rides and the racing gets underway at 2.10pm with plenty of runners in all of the races. There are three flat cards at Yarmouth, Redcar and Wolverhampton and in Ireland they have a flat fixture at Punchestown.

We start the new week with a jumps racing fixture at Worcester and the stable has one runner, Harry Junior. He runs in the 3.00pm maiden hurdle, division one of the contest over 2 miles and Jack Tudor rides. He is a lovely big gelding related to the owner's former very good horse, Harry Senior. Junior has just had the three runs in his life to date and ran with promise in a bumper but has been disappointing in two tries over hurdles so far. He has always been a little backward and I am not sure he was ever really right after his bumper run last year so we have given him plenty of time and hopefully that will pay off this season. He is a big price today and it will be a watching brief, but it will be nice to get a good experience under his belt today which we can build on going forwards.

On Saturday, we enjoyed welcoming some of our owners to Pond House before heading to the local pub for lunch and next weekend we are doing the same. They got to look around the yard, we swam and jumped a horse and then paraded a few before heading for food. We were lucky with the weather once again after quite a wet week it was dry and sunny while everyone was here. Fingers crossed we can make in three in a row next Saturday!

There is no jumps racing today but there is plenty on the flat to keep us entertained as well as plenty of other sporting action as well! It is of course St Leger Day at Doncaster while they also race on the flat at Chester, Lingfield, Musselburgh and Bath. In Ireland, the flat action is at Leopardstown.

I have to start this morning's news with the sad update that we unfortunately lost Hammer Dan at Uttoxeter last night. He was in the process of running well in third place and travelling strongly when about to round the bend for home when Jack Tudor felt him go wrong and pulled him up quickly. He suffered a leg fracture and there was nothing that could be done for him but as a team we would like to thank the vets and and the racecourse for their swift actions in helping him. Our eight year old was the winner of two hurdle races and had been placed on all three of his previous starts this summer. Our thoughts our with his owners at this time and Sam who looked after him at home. Every horse plays their part in the community at the yard, he was a real character and he will be sadly missed by us all.

Hammer Dan runs at Uttoxeter this Evening
Racing springs back into life today following the blank day yesterday with plenty of action. There is a twilight jumps card over at Uttoxeter that gets underway at 4.30pm and we have a runner in the final race of the day, Hammer Dan in the 7.05pm handicap hurdle over 2m7f and Jack Tudor rides. Our seven year old had three runs earlier this summer with form figures of 223. He returns today from having wind surgery and we hope that will have worked and have helped him to try and get his third career win over hurdles. He also sports first time cheek pieces in and attempt to get him just to concentrate a little more and I would like to think he has a good chance at about 13/2, fourth best in the betting. He won't mind the track or the ground.
