Smart Exit is declared to run in Towcesters 1.10 tomorrow. He is in fine form and faces 6 rivals in the staying handicap chase. On paper he looks to have a very decent chance, and is tipped up by many to get his head in front for the first time this season. On Friday Petethepear and San Telm look like making the trip to Ascot which should be a good day! San Telm has been in blinding form at home for the last week or so, and is very much over the gut wrenching task he faced in Uttoxeter a few weeks ago! Fingers crossed they both go well. Savingforvegas looks like heading to Fakenham on Sunday, where she will make her hurdling debut. Hopefully a couple of them can get their heads in front. With a couple of Christmas parties intermingled in between the racing it looks like being a very enjoyable few days - and a couple of winners will ensure that the sore heads were worth while!! Sneaking Budge is in fine form - and we will look at getting him out again in early January - with options in Sandown Ludlow and Kempton on the radar. There are just a couple of share available - so if you want a different Christmas Present, and a day out early in the new year - get in touch (07909 518902). Bold Conquest will have entries in Doncaster on 29th and Warwick on the 31st. The sale of Native Princess continues to be frustrating - she will have an entry in the Doncaster Sales in January, where she will carry a reserve - if this is not met we will continue to try and syndicate her as a broodmare, or she may be left out with a return to training in mind later in 2016. If you are interested in joining in a five strong syndicate to breed form this tough, hardy mare who has won and been placed in bumpers as well as winning a novice hurdle please get in touch on 07909 518902 or email info@nickbrownracing.co.uk. She is a very commercial mare and with luck - could be a superb investment!
