Schooling news

Really an excuse to show off our Easyfix hurdles which have been a new addition this season to our schooling grounds!

In addition to the three horses that ran last week (Baby Ticker, Eternally Yours and Big Bad Dream), there were another couple of the string popped over the schooling jumps recently. Both Paper Promise and Dali Mail had been given initial preparatory education at the end of last season, so it wasn't an entirely new experience to them.

The other day Callum took Dali Mail to the schooling lanes on his own, and first popped him through the existing series of 5 hurdles (the tyres).

Dali Mail then had his first sight of the Easifix hurdles, and jumped six of these - and Callum pronounced himself very happy with the last 2 or 3!

Handicap adjustments

Published today by the BHA reflecting races that took place last week.

• Baby Ticker has been re-assessed at OR108 - a drop of 3lb having finished 5th & 6th in her last two races. That's good!
• Eternally Yours has been raised 6lb to OR116 - for finishing second.............That's not so good.
