Thursday 11 December

No trip to Ludlow today, as unfortunately the meeting has been lost to the frost. Daurica will have to wait for her next run. It may give an opportunity to pop to Huntingdon this afternoon to see the Peterborough Chase. Moving this race back to it's old midweek slot has resulted in a high class field being declared, with My Way De Solzen, an Arkle and World Hurdle winner running. E Major will be entered for Newbury today as the options going forward are very thin on the ground. If we miss Newbury next week, and Hereford is frozen or very heavy the week after we will be forced to go to Kempton on Boxing day, so an entry at Newbury looks prudent. Kikos will also have an entry there - as well as 2 at Bangor. At Cheltenham tomorrow, with the sales in the evening - very much looking forward to that!!
