Barrier Peaks runs at Exeter Today
I hope everyone enjoyed a nice Good Friday? The weather was lovely and I had an enjoyable day at Bath races even though the actual journey to and from the racecourse was not so great!! Talap ran with credit despite finishing out of the prize money and we were getting quite excited at one point but he just got a little tired at the end. Jockey Ben Curtis was pretty positive after the race and thinks ridden a bit differently he is more than capable of winning races going forwards which was nice to hear.

Yesterday David broke the news that Jack Tudor has been appointed as the number one jockey at Pond House and he will ride the majority of our horses supported by our existing team of jockeys. Jack is a young rider who is talented in the saddle but already has plenty of big race experience. He only turns 21 next month but his CV already has notable wins including the Welsh Grand National in 2019 and the Eider Chase this season to name just two. He has been in to ride out and school regularly in the last few weeks and he and David have got on well and have started to build a good relationship which we hope can lead to plenty of winners in the future. He can do minimum weight in the saddle no problem and has shown himself to be very good with owners and feedback after the races which is also a big part of the role of a jockey. We are all looking forward to getting to know him a little more but I am sure we can just let his riding do the talking!

Anglers Crag runs at Wetherby Today!
Today we have runners at two jumps meetings, Wetherby and Hereford. Anglers Crag runs in the 4.55pm handicap chase on the card over three miles and Jack Tudor rides. It has not quite gone to plan for him so far this season since switching to fences but last time out at Chepstow was a step back in the right direction. He came from an unpromising position at one stage to running on well at the end to be a never nearer third. He put in a much better display of jumping as well and we have added cheek pieces on as well today which hopefully will just sharpen him up. He is definitely handicapped to run well by his home work but we just need him to put it all together on the track. Hopefully today will be his day! It looks a fairly competitive race for the grade with 16 runners and we are about 17/2 in the betting.

Pepsiwithacap runs at Wolverhampton Today!
Today we just have the one runner on the all-weather at Wolverhampton. Pepsiwithacap makes her stable debut in the 5.15pm handicap over 1m4f with Jason Watson in the saddle. Our four year old came from Gavin Cromwell in Ireland and she seems to have enjoyed running at Dundalk where from four starts she has won, finished second and finished third. She has won over hurdles and we will run her over hurdles this summer but we thought this was a good starting point from which we can learn a bit more about her. She finished second over 1m4f at Dundalk in November of a mark of 65 and ran okay back at that track in January. She runs today off a mark of 67 in a fairly open little contest with just seven runners. She is about 5/1 fourth best in the betting and hopefully she can put up a bold show in the colours of Jagger Ley Racing.

There are no runners from Pond House today but there is just the one jumps meeting at Fontwell. There are also flat meetings at Thirsk and on the all-weather at Southwell. Philip Armson travels to Fontwell for three rides but the first of these is in the 4.00pm race and then he rides in the last three races. All three horses are quite big prices but fingers crossed he can have some good spins.

There are no runners from Pond House today but they race over jumps at Ludlow and there are two all-weather meetings at New Astor and Lingfield. We actually had just the one entry for Ludlow today, Neon Moon who could have possibly ran in the 3.00pm handicap chase over three miles. We decided to wait for a bit longer with our fella but it looks a competitive race with seven runners and Annsam head the market at 5/2 but it looks a fairly open little contest.
