What a week we had last week! Since we last caught up, we have enjoyed four fantastic winners, and we couldn't be happier with how the horses are running.
First up was Alien Storm, who stepped up in trip and proved it was exactly what he wanted, winning impressively by 11 lengths! Anxious Moments was next to strike, winning again under a confident ride from Harry Cobden. This was quickly followed by Roxy Russet, who certainly made the northern trip worthwhile with a real gutsy performance to get her head in front. To round off a wonderful week, Pippins Legend (another member of the Apple family!) added to the celebrations with a win at Fontwell.
We are absolutely delighted for all our winning connections. Every winner is special, and it is so rewarding to see the hard work paying off for everyone involved. We are currently sitting at a 40% strike rate over the last 14 days, which is a fantastic achievement and testament to the form the horses are in. We are incredibly grateful to our team at home, too, whose hard work makes weeks like this possible. Long may the good form continue!
It's a new week and we have already been out and about! Today we headed down to a very foggy Lambourn to work and school a few horses. They always enjoy a change of scenery and a day out, and it makes a lovely start to the week.
On the weather front, it seems there are still plenty of horses crying out for a bit more rain, so fingers crossed we get some more soon. It really has been a rather strange start to the season weather-wise, and we certainly wouldn't say no to a little more moisture underfoot.
We have a quieter start to the week on the racing front, with no runners until Thursday, when we have entries at Market Rasen with Supreme Force and Chemoulin. We also have several entries across the weekend, so hopefully there will be plenty more to look forward to as the week unfolds.
We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone for all the lovely messages and continued support we have received recently. It really doesn't go unnoticed, and we are so grateful to everyone who follows, supports and cheers us on. It makes these special weeks even more enjoyable to share.
