A very cold - wet & windy ...

... Newbury - all warmed up with a terrific performance from Lady Caroline's Dell ' Arca - who came 2nd in The Betfair Hurdle . Lady C was unfortunately absent on Saturday but she must have been very proud of the run . I think Dell ' Arca is still a novice - so it'll be interesting what race he goes for at Cheltenham .
And then my mate Brian Drew had a winner across at Warwick with Tullyeska Hill . What a great double that would have been ! Brian also had a winner at Huntingdon on Thursday with Pride Of The Castle - so what a fantastic week he had ! Well done Bri !
I'm not too sure what to make of the race Geoff was supposed to go for . It was won by Smad Place and he's now very prominent in the betting for The RSA in what looks to be a very open market . Geoff is quoted at around 16s and I recon he would have gone close on Saturday . He's entered for Fakenham !!! on Friday as well as Ascot Saturday - now which one do you think I would prefer ??? CU
P S - picture of me getting up close with Dell 'Arca ... O ... and Rosie !!!
