Monday 15 December

After watching work on Saturday, I took the time to pop over to see Rousing Rob at Michael and Fiona's yard at Stewkley. I am pleased to say that he is making fantastic progress, and looks a million dollars. Fiona has removed his stitches, and I had to look really hard to see where the point of entry was. The vets report that I received last week states that 'the prognosis is excellent.... and recurrence is very rare' so all bodes well for Rob. A few familiar names were on show at the Point to Point yesterday, where Kingscliff made his return and ran away with the mens open. It was a thrill to see a horse of that quality put up a really good display.He could have a decent season Hunter Chasing.
