Friday twenty fourth Might, 2024 – Richard Phillips Racing

The Final Drop (pictured) was a lovely third at Southwell on Wednesday on floor that was a bit too comfortable for her.   She jumped and travelled effectively and hopefully she’s going to now have a handicap mark having been positioned in her first two novice hurdles.  I’m certain she might be a number of enjoyable for her house owners and can strengthen in time.

Shibuya Music wants a step up in journey having run on effectively within the straight in her first handicap at Market Rasen yesterday.  Though the course didn’t get as a lot rain as others, she may most likely do with a firmer floor to be at her greatest.  We are going to now run her over three miles and I’m certain she’s going to give her partnership some enjoyable over the approaching months.

We now have entries for Organdi, Lesser and Elfride subsequent week which might be floor dependant.

It was a busy week at Goffs gross sales in Doncaster however delighted to return with two promising Irish point-to-pointers in Smile Again and Tech That.

Smile Again was victorious on her debut and seems to leap effectively and appears the sort for mares novices hurdles this coming season.

While Tech That may be very a lot the stamp of a chaser who was narrowly crushed on his debut.  A son of Milan, he will certainly strengthen up for a summer time break and we sit up for him starting a hurdling marketing campaign this autumn earlier than beginning his chasing profession.

It was nice to be joined on the gross sales by Karen Anderson who’s a part of the Somedays Right here Partnership.  Karen and her companions Carol and Eustace Theodore bought What A Classic on the sale some nineteen years in the past and Karen flew over from the USA to hitch me on the buying journey.  Hopefully it has been a profitable one.
