Thinque Tank massively deserved that win yesterday at Ludlow. He has been running consistently without winning recently. The better ground and addition of the tongue strap paid off, and he put up a strong fight to the line to get his head in front. It was all heart, and so nice to see. Tom Buckley, our conditional, gave him a great ride. Vlad rides him out every day at home and does a fantastic job, Thinque Tank is full of character!! We look forward to seeing where we go next with him. Thinque Tank is part of The Charlie Longsdon Racing Club and there are spaces still availble!! This is a super fun club to be involved in with regular updates, share of prize money, and the chance of owners badges along with stable visits when the restrictions allow it. We also have the new addition of The Racing Manager, which provides form updates, breeding updates, race replays, TimeForm reviews and lots more! It is only £74 a month, or a one off paymnet of £800 for 12 months! Please do get in touch for more details. 01608 645556 or racingclub@charlielongsdonracing.com.
We have no runners today or tomorrow however a busy Sunday. Four runners to Huntingdon. Bold Pimpernel ridden by Sam Twiston Davies, Rainmaker and Do Wanna Know ridden by Paul O'Brien and Teenage Dirtbag to be ridden by Tom Buckley. On Monday we have entries for Nightfly, Freethinker, Stormy Milan and Tea For Free. Lisdoonvarna Lad and Byzantium Lad (who are half brothers) have entries for later next week.
Vivas went to Cheltenham earlier in the week for a cross country school around in preparation for the cross country race at Cheltenham. He was fantastic, and takes everything in his stride. Fingers crossed he gets in.
I hope everyone has a great weekend, not long until the Cheltenham Festival!!
