After a very quiet week at La Grange, this week we see the return of the ever consistent Roca Magica and Toro Dorado, as well as Global Art’s seasonal return.
Toro Dorado runs today at Kempton in the mile race at 3.05pm. He was very unlucky on his last start when he was drawn badly and had to switch turning in to get a run. He still put in a valiant effort to finish 5th. He has come out of this race well and is good form. This race looks a good option for him and I expect another solid performance.
Global Art is set to take the long trip up North to Newcastle tomorrow for his seasonal reappearance. He has had a good break after a consistent winter all weather campaign and is in good form at home. It is a competitive race with the likely favourite being Sharon Watt's Champagne Rules, who has good Newcastle form and was an impressive winner there last time out in an Apprentice Handicap.
With all going to plan our final runner of the week will be Roca Magica at Lingfield on Friday. It is looking likely be a small field and could be a good option for her. She has bounced back from her last race and is in fine form at home and I would hope she would be competitive again.
In other news the office has been on a big fitness drive lately taking advantage of work rider Sky Gilbert’s classes, which are getting us all in shape as we look to step up our fitness, along with the horses for the coming season.
We are all hoping that The Cheltenham Festival goes ahead tomorrow, the excitement is building and we are looking forward to watching the best jumpers taking the stage there.
Have a great week,
Many Thanks,
Ed
