Hannah’s Blog!!
Friday, January 30th, 2009It’s down to me this week with the blog, Stan is in Dubai and Sara is at Lingfield.
On Friday we had 3 runners at Lingfield, Flawless Diamond and Nun Today in the same race, they finished 3rd and 4th. Flawless Diamond will now go home to her owners and be covered, Nun Today ran good with the blinkers on for the first time. Polish Power ran also, I think he may have been having an off day.
On Saturday we had 2 runners at Lingfield, Pyrus Time and Solent Ridge. Pyrus Time ran a good race to be 3rd, he is now taking his racing a lot better, he settled during his race and finished well. He is entered for a handicap on Wednesday at Lingfield. Solent Ridge ran a good race finishing 4th. He lost his way a little last year and his run proved that the wind operation he had over the winter had worked. He seems to have his confidence back now and hopefully will be back to winning ways soon.
Stan flew over to Dubai on Wednesday to oversee Sgt Schultz run on Thursday at Nad Al Sheba. He seemed to travel well and then dropped away, Stan has had him scoped this morning and it has come back dirty. Fullback is in good form and seems to be enjoying his time in the sun. His next run will be in the 2000 Guineas.
Sara has gone down to Lingfield for our 2 runners, Nun Today and Patience Rewarded. Nun Today has the blinkers fitted again, she came 4th last time out when she wore them. Patience Rewarded is having her 2nd start and has come on for her first run. Hopefully they should both put up a show.
All the yearlings or 2 year olds as they should now be called, are all going well and we would have a good idea now of which of them are going to be early. The season is not too far away and will be here before we know it. Some of them are still looking for owners………….
Some of you may have read the home page but we are starting up a Syndicate this year, it will be made up of three 2 year olds for the 2009 Season. There will be relavant pages on the website very soon but if you do want some more information, please do not hesitate to contact the office.
