Going Fast, sums up everything at the moment! A couple of weeks ago I mentioned Whitwick Bloodstock Ltd on these pages. This is a company set up as an EIS Scheme, to trade in Bloodstock. There was considerable interest, and there are just 2 shares left! This very tax efficient investment vehicle has proved very popular, and we have already secured a gorgeous foal, with more to come over the course of the next few days! Get in touch of you would like further details! Time is also going fast! Today is the last day of May, and it will only be a couple of weeks before the first two horses come back in from their summer holidays. Cloonacool and Land League will return to their stables. Cloonacool has had a longer break than Land League after losing his way a bit last season. Hopefully the long break has done him good, and he will return to his old self. He will have his wind looked at in a few weeks, and then be aimed back at The Listed Prelude Hurdle in Market Rasen in late September. Land League has recovered from his heavy fall, and as he likes a sounder surface Stuart thinks it right to get him back in a shade earlier and prepare him for September when the ground will be suitable for him. It doesn't seem 5 minutes since they went out on their holidays - so to get a couple back in already is great!! We had a good few days in Doncaster last week - and tomorrow we are off to the Sales in Cheltenham.
