There is jumps racing at Market Rasen being the sole jumps card, while on the flat there are meetings at Thirsk, Brighton, Haydock, Goodwood and Bath. In Ireland, they race over jumps at Clonmel and on the flat at Fairyhouse.

Yesterday we were at Newton Abbot with two runners. Behind The Curtain was our first runner in the first race on the card and he returned to the bigger obstacles, things went quite quick for him and he got unlucky at being hampered by the faller at the 6th fence and he lost his position after that. I think Jack did well to get him back in the race gradually and he ran on well in the end finishing 5th.

            Heure De Gloire runs today!
Yesterday was a quiet day in the yard with no runners and today we are back racing with two runners at Newton Abbot. Behind The Curtain runs in the 2:10pm Handicap Chase with Jack Tudor on board, he won over hurdles at Hereford last time out and he is back over the bigger obstacles today, but he has been in great form recently for the racing club so hopefully, he can run another solid race.

  Mr Tambourine Man winner at Worcester!
On Saturday we had two runners at Worcester. Chemical Warfare was running a great race and looked like he would've won or been placed as he was travelling and jumping well when coming down at the last, thankfully he is all ok and hopefully we can go again with him next time. Mr Tambourine Man ran another solid race from the back of his second last time out to win at Worcester, winning by 6 lengths. It's great to have this horse back in form and long may it continue!

Mr Tambourine Man runs at Worcester Today

Today is of course Derby Day at Epsom and Aidan O’Brien will attempt to replicate last year’s win with Auguste Rodin as his runners this year, City of Troy lines up as the favourite with stable mate Los Angeles second in the betting. City of Troy has to bounce back from a poor effort in the 2,000 Guineas but the Ballydoyle team can't speak highly enough of their star colt and so I wouldn't be surprised to see a different horse this afternoon.  Derby trial winner Ambiente Friendly will be hoping to feature in the closing stages for newly jocked up Robert Havlin. The race is due off at 4:30pm with a competitive 16 runner field.
