Friday 26 June

Kikos has been declared for Uttoxeter on Sunday. There are 11 intended runners, and the ground is good to firm. We are hoping that the drop in trip will suit him, and he should run well - he is in grand old form at home!There is a good write up about him on page 21 of this weeks Weekender. Daurica is entered at Worcester next week, unfortunately Tom O'Brien will not be able to ride her as he suffered a broken leg in an incident as he was getting the leg up in the bumper at Hereford last weekend, she is also in great shape. Interesting to see to close relatives of Fences Farm inmates go through the ring in Ireland yesterday - a half brother to College Ace sold for 7,500 Euros, and a Bob Back half brother to Important Business sold for 17,500 Euros. It will be interesting to follow their respective careers.
