It is a Bank Holiday Monday with four flat meetings, one jumps card and two meetings in Ireland to keep us entertained. The flat meetings come from Chepstow, Ripon, Southwell and Epsom while they race over jumps up at Cartmel. In Ireland, they have two jumps cards at Downpatrick and Ballinrobe. The stable does not have any runners.

There is jumps racing today at Cartmel but the stable does not have any runners. We were considering a trip up North but they have had plenty of rain and the ground is too soft for the horses we were considering sending there. York once again takes centre stage on the flat but there if a good card at Goodwood this afternoon as well.

Sirekoff Winner at Newton Abbot
It was brilliant day at Newton Abbot yesterday for the team with a double and a winner also for our amateur Martin McIntyre. We won the first and last races of the day, we book ended the card so to speak. It was lovely to get a first win for Sirekoff over hurdles yesterday and especially nice for his owners who are new into racing and this was their first ever winner. We only purchased the five year old last month from Doncaster sales but he has settled in really well since arriving and pleased us in everything he has done at home but they always have to go and prove it on the track. He travelled strongly and jumped well and was always just doing enough when Jack Tudor asked him for his effort from turning for home. The track and ground were probably sharp enough for him but he did it nicely and there is more to come and lots to look forward to.

Dindin runs at Newton Abbot Today
It was not quite meant to be for young Jack last night, his dream of African Lady winning on debut didn’t quite come off but she ran respectably and gave us something to build on. She may even want further in distance and probably a little help from the handicapper but she is fine this morning, which is the main thing. Walk of the Roses bounced back and ran better to be third in the mares maiden hurdle. She didn’t jump as well as she can but I am sure she can win a similar contest going forwards.

Oceanline Winner at Worcester
It was great to have our 12th winner of the jumps season yesterday thanks to Oceanline winning the lucky last. Jack Tudor gave him a great front running ride on his first run over hurdles since last October. He had been running well on the flat this summer and enjoyed his switch back to obstacles and jumped well throughout. He quickened up from turning from home and despite his nearest rival edging closer on the long run in he was always just doing enough and Jack thought he was always just doing enough. This was just his second win over hurdles but he has an engine and is still well handicapped in relation to his flat ability so hopefully there is more to come. He loves the quicker ground and I am sure we will continue to mix both codes to keep him mentally happy as much as anything as well.
