Monday 7 October

San Telm and Benefit Cut were both scoped this morning and were both given the all clear. We are looking at 2 races in Cheltenham for San Telm, and Benefit Cut will make his handicap debut in Southwell on October 24th. Brett the vet also passed his eye over Omaruru once again and gave him the go-ahead to resume cantering, His return has only been delayed for a week, and he should be ready to go by the middle of November. Norse Wren ran a nice race yesterday. He has been in a week or two longer than those that ran earlier in the week, and his greater fitness showed. He was always going to struggle over that trip on that track, but it was a nice introduction before stepping up to 3 miles. He jumped well and will be seen in a much better light over a trip. He is fine this morning. I can confirm that the new arrival I mentioned last week has passed the vet and has arrived at Fences Farm - more news of this tomorrow.
