Todays news headline Exit Entry probably make you think that we don't know if we're coming or going (you're probably right), but what it actually means is, Smart Exit has been entered in a Novices Hurdle in Leicester next week.He has been going very well in his work, and with some of the form of his previous run starting to shake out (first runner today) it will be an interesting week guaging his last appearance there.Since the unfortunate events of the weekend I have been overwhelmed by messages of support, which has led to the beginnings of a waiting list for another horse. I have been scouring catalogues to see what is on the market, and will be exploring my usual avenues. The limited shares I have made available in Kikos are going fast (only 3 left) so get in touch fast if you would like a share in him! On that front it is nice to welcome Ryan Boyce to Nick Brown Racing - we look forward to meeting you at the weekend when you pop down to Fences Farm. TMT Grand owners of Colebrooke have made it on to the front page of the Racing Post today - well - their colours have anyway. The feature is on Brendan Powell who gave Colebrooke such a good ride at Sandown. Colebrooke even gets his photo on pages 10-11, and to celebrate he decided to destroy his door this morning! He is in rude health!
