Friday 24 April

Kikos is declared to run at Market Rasen tomorrow. It should be a lovely day out - the horse is in fantastic form, we know this for certain as he gets a bit cheeky when he feels well, and this morning he was very cheeky - in fact he was downright rude, so he must be very very well. The ground and trip will both suit, and if Sam gives him a kick into the last we should not be too far away.The weather looks to be nice so it could be a lovely day at the North Lincs track, although these spring meetings can get a totally different crowd, with a proliferation of non racing drunks, which regular readers of this blog will know was a scenario we encountered a couple of seasons ago that led Market Rasen to be one of my least favourite tracks for a time. Let's hope they all find something else to do tomorrow.
