Terrierman and Sebastopol are in fine fettle this morning, nothing too serious for any of the horses on the work front today. We schooled a handful of three-year-olds over fences, Lamanver Storm, Thomas Patrick, Dorking Boy and Nocte Volatus also jumped a couple of lines of fences. The ditch was restuffed yesterday and caused a bit of concern for the jockeys, the horses didn’t seem to mind and jumped it beautifully. 

Velasco ran a career best, if I ever wanted a horse to win it was Velasco. David has been unwell and is having a seriously tough time of it. If the handicapper gives him a chance, he will be winning soon. 

Lets hope the weather is brutal for the 1 million prize money fixture at Lingfield in January. Adrimel would love it!
