Daurica in the 8 o'clock at Bangor will mean a late night for Stuart and Alice!! Daurica is in a competitive little heat, although she is back down to close to her last winning mark, and is sporting cheek pieces for the first time. These seem to have perked her up a bit at home, and if they have the same effect on course she could go nicely. I would love to see her come back to form - but she travels in hope more than expectation! Bobby Gee will have another school today - at the seminar given by Geoff Lane who performed his breathing operation, he said that wind problems can be the cause of jumping errors, which could explain why such a natural jumper as Bobs, struggled when switched to fences last term, so it will be interesting to see if the op has helped him in that department. News of how Daurica got on, and some good news about one of our former horses that is evidently doing well in their new career!
