Ex Sheila Blige 2 year old leading Ex Cloud's End up the Warren Hill grass
We had yet another sharp frost this morning. I hope that we get some warmer weather soon as the turf season is fast approaching and the colder weather can knock some horses backwards.
It looks like being another quiet week on the runners front but Justice First may run on Friday and we have two entered in a Wolverhampton maiden on Saturday.
Postponed was very impressive on Super Saturday and travelled a lot better than he can do through his races. He deserved to win on the ratings but he showed he can handle better ground and he will take the beating in the Sheema Classic. Tryster was impressive too but he will have to come on again if he is to beat Solow in The Dubai Turf. An ex inmate of La Grange Muarrab won the Group 3 Al Shimaal over 6f. He won twice for us in 2012 before transferring to Mr Al Muhairi in Dubai and he seemed to relish the Meydan dirt.
Victoria Pendleton takes her chance in The Foxhunter at Cheltenham and all concerned would not have made the decision to go ahead unless they believed she was ready for the challenge. She is used to handling pressure and whilst they will go faster at Cheltenham compared to Wincanton, she could not have a more suitable mount in Pacha Du Polder.
