Friday 25th June
Friday, June 25th, 2010A bit of an in and out week as far as runners were concerned this week. We ended the week last Saturday with FRAME IT winning at Lingfield, and places for all our other runners there Mnarani, Rosewood Lad, Purple Gallery and Sheilas Bond. So a good end to the week.
We had a couple of first time 2 yr old runners that ran really nicely this week. RED ZUES at Windsor on Monday evening, staying on real nice. He will improve a lot for that and his main aim is the Tattersalls Ireland Sales Race in September. REILLYS DAUGHTER ran 3rd at Goodwood yesterday. She was very green and would want a little more cut in the ground, should win a maiden handy enough. We were really pleased with her.
SONORAN SANDS ran at Leicester last night and probably needs a bit further and the race may have been a bit too soon after Royal Ascot for him.
Five runners tomorrow, four at Lingfield in the evening where they all would have a bit of a chance and KINKY AFRO runs at the Curragh in the Pretty Polly Stakes. It’s a big ask for her (being a Group 1) but as I always say, if you’re not in, you can’t win ! You never know what can happen in these races.
The horses all seem to be in pretty good nick, enjoying the sunshine, as are we !!
