25th April news

Perth runners tomorrow (Wednesday)

The Spring Festival circus rolls on, this weeks hosts are Punchestown (Eire, 5 days) and Perth (Scotland, 3 days). And it is to the Scottish venue that we head with a couple of runners tomorrow.

Night Comes In has had just one run so far (in a bumper) and makes his jumping debut in the opening race, the maiden hurdle. He's very inexperienced, and still a little unfurnished in looks, but has schooled well and we hope he can put in a show which provides some promise for the future.

In the very next race, Paper Roses runs in the mares' handicap hurdle over 2m 4f. She has sandwiched a good jumping performance at Kelso in between a couple of forgettable runs at Musselburgh. Her better runs have come with some give in the ground, so tomorrow's advance going of good, good to soft in places in not ideal, and there are others in the race who are better handicapped.
Still, nothing ventured.......

Hexham review

Big Bad Dream ran very lazily at Hexham yesterday, and the run was not a patch on his debut 3rd at Ayr. He proved hard work for Callum and finished 5th.
