Wednesday 30 November

New boy Montegonian has not even arrived back at the yard yet and shares in him are selling very fast! Stuart is on his way to Lambourn now to pick the boy up, and he will be back at Fences Farm later today. As mentioned yesterday think that a life at Fences Farm will be right up this stunning greys street, and he will make his mark over hurdles and fences in years to come. 'Brett The Vet' was in this morning to scope a couple and cast his eye over Omaruru. He was very happy with Omar and has given Stuart the go ahead to start and ride him. As he has been bucking around the walker for the past month he may take a bit of sitting on, so it was decided to ride him in the quiet of the afternoon rather than during the hustle and bustle of the morning. I will report on progress tomorrow! Reading midfield dynamo Jay Tabb was up this morning to see his horse Colebrooke do his final preparations before his run next week. Jay saw him school and was kind enough to video it and send it to me - I can confirm that he went well upsides, and that I rather like watching schooling from the warmth and comfort of my office chair! San Telm and Smart Exit are both fine, and will be back on the track later this month. Ring me on 07909 518902 for a share in Montegonian while there are some left!! Won't be long at this rate!
