    Best of luck all.
    Tjukurrpa third reserve at Cork this evening; one already out so not sure if we are in yet.
    First run of season so nothing to recommend her on previous form, just want to see her run once or twice.

    I see Apache Gold has been busy the last month and a bit - out today in a maiden hurdle at Limerick and should get a handicap mark after this race.

    Yes, chef, but edgt, baldeagle and I are no longer involved since last October.

    As far as I'm concerned the horse gave everything he could for six years and deserves to be retired.

    One of our syndicate horses has a chance at Hexham 6.45 tonight but I haven't received an update and nor has anyone else in the syndicate I've spoken to. I can't recommend a bet and will probably have a small win bet out of loyalty.

    Trying to find out. It could be syndicate organiser is on holiday. Fortunately I e-mailed the whole syndicate this morning and most had a bet. A lot of them didn't know he was running and most have e-mailed back and thanked me. Would love to know what the stable thought as a lot of the info recently has been spot on. I did have a score on at 5.2 but it may have been a bigger bet or not?

    Two runners tomorrow for our syndicate - Oliver's Gold at Cartmel - he was pulled up l/t/o because the saddle slipped badly - he's in good form but the ground is soft which he hasn't acted on yet and probably wont tomorrow if he runs.

    At Redcar we have Cornborough running bt he wants soft in the ground but the current going is g/firm. If there is plenty of rain overnight and tomorrow and the going changes to anything with soft in it he would have a sneaky e/way shot at a price.

    That was a very pleasant surprise. We thought Cornborough had an e/way shout if the ground eased but Oliver's Gold has never won in that grade and on soft ground. By the look of the times on the Chase track it wasn't as soft as the official going said. Stable horses are running well.

    Our syndicate horses Cape Hideaway(Newcastle 6.40) & Magnolia Ridge(Hexham 5.20) are both running today and reportedly in good form.

    Tjukurrpa finally got the nod to run at Listowel tomorrow.
    Maiden with horses rated around 70 with a batch of tasty newcomers also.
    Colin Keane rides so we should finally find out if it is a waste of time.
