Our Yorkshire Three Peaks Conquerors!
It was great to get another a couple of winners last week from a limited amount of runners, taking our season winners tally to nine. Myristica has been fantastic since joining our yard and has now won three of her four starts over hurdles with the minimum of fuss. She is a gorgeous looking daughter of Harzand and what is best about her is her straight forward and genuine attitude. She travels kindly through her races and jumps really well and responds when her jockey asks. We will see what the handicapper does to her rating tomorrow but she does have an entry on the flat at Salisbury on Saturday although we may wait until Market Rasen the following weekend.

Last week it was mixed fortunes on the runner’s front with not much luck for Pepsiwithacap in her race as she got not further than the third hurdle and was brought down when another horse fell. Thankfully she is none the worse for the incident and she may well head to Worcester next week for her next outing.

Dindin Wins At Worcester!
From just the four runners for the stable last week it was good to keep the winners score board ticking over with Dindin winning at Worcester. Dindin was our seventh winner of the season and it was the ten year olds 13th win of his career. He is as tough and genuine as they come and he has now won over £240,000 in prize money in his career. He has multiple placings to go with his wins and you would like many more like him!

Myristica Wins At Newton Abbot!
We only had a handful of runners during the last week but took our season tally to six winners over jumps with an easy win for Myristica at Newton Abbot. Her task was made somewhat easier by the departure of the third favourite three flights from home but she didn’t come out of second gear all the way round. She had a little look at the padded hurdles early in the race but led the field and jumped well. She has a good engine and an attitude to match and is a thoroughly likeable mare. She has now taken her career record to six wins from 29 career starts, four on the flat and two over hurdles, a healthy 21% strike rate. She has come out of that race well and we have plenty of options going forwards she may well stick to the jumps or we may try her back on the flat as some point as well.

Bashful Boy Wins at Nottingham!
We had just the seven runners last week, but it was nice to have two winners and a few places as well. It was a winner on the both codes for the team with Bashful Boy winning at Nottingham on the flat and Abaya Du Mathan winning at his beloved Ffos Las.

We only had a few runners last week but from that we record three second places courtesy of Only Fools, Kolisi and D’jango. While second places can be a little frustrating, all three horses ran well and are capable of winning races this summer.

It has been a good week for the yard with a few winners which included a double at Ffos Las, a winner at Southwell and a winner on the flat at Salisbury. It was double’s all round last Monday at Ffos Las for myself, jockey Jack Tudor and owners, the Value Racing Club.
