Friday 18 May

Stuart faces a major trip this afternoon when he heads off to Aintree - the M6 on a Friday afternoon is NOT the place to be!! E Major runs in the 8.15. There is a big field and he needs to come down a few pounds and feel his feet rattle, so probably a place is as much as can be expected. Tomorrow Kikos will work first lot, and Tara Dancer will do a canter after breakfast with Cayman Kirk. We can drive to the top of the hill so I look forward to seeing a few faces tomorrow!A night out for one or two of us tonight - should be a bit of fun! Bad luck for the Kehoes yesterday evening when their Ringa Bay took a crashing fall in Folkestone. That put paid to the six timer - but at least he is OK this morning! Folkestone is not a happy hunting ground for them - the same thing happened last year!
