Busy weekend arising – 3 runners at Newcastle and 4 at Carlisle we hope. – Kinneston

Milder immediately fortunately and hitting the crossbar at Musselburgh with encouraging runs all spherical; Anamanda 2nd, Not in Kansas & Beat the Retreat third and My Woman Elektra operating very properly for a good distance earlier than fading into seventh within the closing phases.  On to Newcastle tomorrow the place the bottom is nice, they’re watering laborious to attempt to have it on the straightforward facet as Trainers had been sad about it on the final assembly and it’s important they’ve it proper for a Premier Assembly with a Grade 1 Hurdle and a Premier Handicap.  We are going to take the horses down and have a detailed have a look at the monitor, let’s hope it’s OK this time.

We begin with Artic Row within the 12.28, he took a heavy fall when transferring into competition at Ayr final time however seems to have recovered properly and may admire the drop again to his successful distance tomorrow – 9 run and Conor rides.

We run Gorvennec in a priceless maiden hurdle at 2.45, he was a great third at Ayr final time and while he’ll higher over additional sooner or later he ought to progress once more tomorrow with circumstances to swimsuit as long as it doesn’t come too shortly after Ayr- 10 run and Bruce rides.

Lastly we run Donny Boy within the Rehearsal Chase at 3.20, a race we gained with Lake View Lad and a function of the Northern jumps season.  As ever it has attracted a robust and aggressive subject, it has very a lot been the early season goal for him  and he ought to have progressed for his seasonal debut at Ayr.  He appears in good order and is confirmed over course and distance, I suppose he hasn’t fairly been within the exuberant kind at residence that one would possibly hope for forward of a problem like this however hopefully he’s coming to himself simply in time – 13 run and Bruce rides.

Subsequent up will probably be Carlisle on Sunday the place we’ve a busy day with 4 runners and the bottom ought to be good to delicate, extra rain would assist all of them and it appears to be like like there’s an opportunity of that.  First up is Half Observe within the 12.20, he was a great third final time having ran into two very properly handled Southern horses and most of Sunday’s opposition look a bit extra uncovered so he should be concerned if he handles the idiosyncrasies of the internal monitor at Carlisle – Bruce rides and 11 run.

Fortunately the opposite three runners are on the chase monitor and we begin with Hombre de Guerra taking up the most costly jumps horse ever bought at public sale within the type of Caldwell Potter (EU740k).  No probability on paper actually however he might actually be positioned and it is a good place for a horse to make its chasing debut – Sean rides and seven run.

Sean additionally takes the experience on Ned Tanner within the function staying chase at 1.55, this appears to be like deservedly aggressive however Ned ought to have come on for his seasonal debut at Kelso and I believe is properly handicapped so if all goes easily by way of the race he ought to be there on the enterprise finish – 10 run.

Lastly we run Gipsy Lee Rose within the 3pm, she ought to be far more at residence on Sunday’s floor than she was when disappointing at Hexham on good floor final time – Bruce rides and 13 run.

After that there will probably be time for a fast journey to London on NTF enterprise previous to hopefully reappearing at Haydock on Wednesday…. have a great weekend everybody!
