The new venture - Olney Bloodstock, has only been live for 48 hours and we have already taken on a new client. The new partnership will be made up of 4 men, and it will be their first venture into racehorse ownership. We wish them luck - they will have fun. But with the fun, will not come the hassle of the partnership administration as this will all be handled by Olney Bloodstock. Have a look at the logo etc at www.olneybloodstock.co.uk - only one web page at the moment, but it will, in the future, carry plenty of features. Back at the ranch, and everything is in tip top shape, although Carolina Wren has been at the vets for a few days with tummy ache. Dawn Commander is in grand order again now. His jabs seem to have worked the trick. Cloonacool is in flying form - still spending plenty of time lunging and plunging! San Telm is quickly getting back into shape, he never takes long, and as usual his coat looks a million dollars. Maypole Lass also looks amazing in her coat - a sign of well being! All of this group are having a short canter every day - Smart Exit and some of Mrs Robesons homebreds, including bumper placed Inca Dove are still doing their walking and trotting conditioning work!
