Wednesday 11 August

I am getting old!! At a meeting last night with Timon at Studio 5, who does all of the work on the website,we discussed dragging Nick Brown Racing into the 21st Century by opening Twitter and Facebook accounts. So I am now a tweeter!! And this I have to say was reasonably simple to get to grips with. Bloody Facebook on the other hand is proving a lot less simple! But I am sure that anyone under the age of 12 would have it done in a jot! Never mind I will battle on and try to get us all hip and trendy on Facebook, but don't expect it for a week or two! Good luck to Martyn Fowkes, who has just received a share in Omaruru as a Birthday Present from his wife Claire. Martyn already has a share in Kikos, so now, thanks to the wife, he has 2 lovely horses to run for him! Omaruru has been ridden away this week, and is very well behaved. He will be ridden in draw reins for a week or two to strengthen his back, and then start cantering again. Robo on the other hand is being a bit of a boyo! Nothing naughty, he is just in rude health and having a skip and a buck - he will start to trot on sooner than later!!
