Totterdown (pictured) didn’t admire the sunshine in Wales earlier than his race yesterday and though the bottom was protected, he excels on softer floor. He and the eventual runner up went a sprinters gallops for the primary mile and after a mistake down the again, Finn Lambert sensibly sorted him. Though he has run properly at Newbury previously, he seems to be finest going right-handed however as Ffos Las seemed just like the final probability to run on protected floor we let him take his probability.
Totterdown will now have a cheerful retirement and we are going to hopefully discover him a superb house within the coming weeks. He seemed fantastic within the preliminaries yesterday and remains to be as enthusiastic as ever about life and appears half his age. He has gained six races and had some wonderful runs in defeat and can all the time be a legend to many.
We’ve three runners at Uttoxeter on Saturday night so long as the bottom fits. Mattie Ross runs within the conditional jockeys handicap hurdle at 5.20pm with Finn Lambert onboard. The mixture have been a superb second over course and distance lately and hopefully will put up one other good efficiency right here.
Picanha makes his chasing debut if the rains come within the three mile handicap chase. He has run some wonderful races over hurdles for us and hopefully this might be a superb introduction for his steeplechasing profession.
Methodtothemagic has had a winter break and returns within the two and a half mile handicap hurdle run at 8.33pm. She would be the final of Finn’s three rides for us on the night and he gained on her final yr at Southwell. Hopefully this might be a superb place to begin for a summer time profession.
