Ocean Heights Winner at Kempton
We had a winner under each code last week from just a handful of runners and it was nice to keep the score board ticking along. Ocean Heights was our final flat winner of 2023 and became the first of 2024 at Kempton last Wednesday evening. He has shown a real liking for the track having run well there on every start recently. He enjoyed stepping back up in distance and was given a lovely front running ride from apprentice Aiden Brookes. We didn’t really want to make the running but to ensure a true run race we decided to make our own pace and he controlled it very well from the front. We will wait to see what the handicapper does to him on Tuesday but hopefully he won’t put him up too much and we can head back to Kempton for a similar race at the beginning of March. I think he will improve more for stepping up in trip in due course but he is a strong traveller with a good attitude and it is brilliant to have him such good form at present.
