We finally got the rain we have all been waiting for. It was touch and go whether the rain was going to miss us or not. However, a monstrous shower appear yesterday evening. A proper heavy downpour, but it soon dried out pretty quickly. All the roads were dry by this morning. Although it did settle the dust, and we were able to trot down the gallop, rather than the grass, this morning. That looks to be the rain over for another week or so!

Worcester received 25mm of rain last night, and now features ‘Good to soft in places.’ That is something we did not think we would see for a while. Midnight Jewel is making his chasing debut with Lilly Pinchin this evening. Oscar Montel and Present Storm are being steered by Brian Hughes.

Paul was in to ride out yesterday, and Lilly was in this morning. All the horses are progressing nicely in their fitness work, and the majority of them are back on the gallops.

Soldat Forte holds an entry at Stratford on Monday and Fontwell on Tuesday in bumpers. The Wise Traveller is also entered in at Fontwell. One Last Dance and George Bancroft are in at Fontwell and Present Storm at Worcester on Tuesday. Three meetings next Tuesday, it could be a busy one.
