Wednesday 10 March

With the first day of the Festival now only six days away, the excitement is starting to mount. Just to help all the folks that have been texting and emailing me, asking which race Ogee is likely to run in at Cheltenham, so that they can arrange to be there and support, his options and preferences are as follows. First preference is the William Hill handicap on Tuesday, Second preference is The RSA Chase, and the third preference is the Jewson Novices handicap on the Thursday. It really does depend on if he gets a run in the William Hill, if not thinking caps will have to go on at Fences Farm!! Welcome to Donna Williams who has finally (it's taken a year for her to pluck up the courage)!! Taken the plunge and had a share in Jardin De Vienne. She only called last night, and will hopefully be there to see her horse run on Friday - instant fun!! Although he was entered at Plumpton yesterday, the best option looks to be Leicester, so he will be heading there. Let's hope we can give Donna her first winner with her first runner - the ground certainly seems to be coming in our favour!
