THREE PLACED EFFORTS IN A WEEK

THREE PLACED EFFORTS IN A WEEK.

          We have had a successful week with all three of our runners finishing placed. Starting off with Annaroe at Worcester; she finished third on her hurdling debut under our conditional jockey David Prichard. She jumped well and finished her race off nicely. A promising start to her career with us. 
          Following Annaroe's good run we took Entry To Evrywhere to Newton Abbot on Thursday and he performed with credit as well under Nick Scholfield. He attempted to make all the running but unfortunately found the consistent Key To Milan too good. However, everyone was pleased with his handicap debut and it showed us that in future he ought to be competitive again off his handicap mark. He is likely to be seen out again in a month or so. 
          We ended our week with a long drive to Ffos Las with Prince Tom; thankfully the long journey was worthwhile with Prince Tom finishing a more than creditable second under top weight. Ian Popham who rode him at Newton Abbot was once again in the plate, he was delighted with the horse who showed a lot of courage to carry top weight round and only be beaten a couple of lengths by a well backed Irish raider. Tom usually has a nice break between his races so we will decide in the next week or so what his next target will be. 
          All three runners this week have pulled out of their races fine and hopefully we can go one better with our runners this week starting with Picaroon on Monday. We also have Nikos Extra and Worldor in a Handicap Chase at Stratford this week aswell as Zero Visibility who hold entries at both Stratford and Bangor
