Thursday 28 June
The first hurdle that stands between Kikos and his run on Sunday has been negotiated. Bloods were taken off of him yesterday and analysed, and I am pleased to say that the results show him to be in great order. Stuart had said yesterday morning that he seemed back to normal and the blood test results confirm this. He will breeze today, and then he just has to scope clean tomorrow morning. Our biggest challenge may be the ground, with some biblical storms forecast for the midlands this afternoon, and unfortunately there is nothing we can do about this!! A share has become available in Smart Exit. This share - I am sure - will not be on the market long, as it is the perfect opportunuity to get involved in a horse with enormous potential! Please go to the For Sale page to have a look at him - he is a real chaser in the making, and should be very well handicapped when he returns to the course in the Autumn. Tom O'Brien who was fourth on him in Leicester really liked him, as we do, and he has a very nice future. He is a beautiful horse form a high class family, and will be gracing the winners enclosure sooner rather than later! Ring me on 07909 518902 for further details.
