There is a dfinite feeling of things moving along at Fences Farm now, as the main group of Autumn/Winter horses step up their work in preparation for their campaigns. First lot saw Troglodyte and College Ace just up the tempo a bit and both went well. Trogs has been off for a while with a tendon injury, and you always hold your breath a bit when they come back, but touch wood he seems to be going really well at present. Second lot, and not quite as many owners as we thought due to the weather and a bit of a car issue, but those that made it managed to dodge the showers and see Ogee work well with Important Business, with Kikos and Rousing Rob going particularly well in behind. The latter two were very pleasing as they have not been in as long as the front two and they are going along very well. Third lot, and Mattaking went for a walk and a trot around the farm, and he seems fine after his run in the week.
