Newmarket this morning
Newmarket this morning-a bit on the chilly side!
The warm sunshine of the last week has gone but the actionout on the track in todays Craven Stakes and the other 7 races looks hot!
It seemed most of Dubai was at the races yesterday with HHSheikh Mohammed and HH Sheikh Hamdan in attendance and although they only cameaway with one winner they may fare better today!!!!!
(Main line preview up now on 09063 440814)
Barefoot Lady was a game winner of the Nell Gwyn and herowners collared me on the way out and asked if they should supplement her forthe 1,000 guineas.
yes I said!She has shown she has got the ability, shellappreciate the extra furlong and as there is no stand out bet in the race Ibelieve she deserves to take her chance!
Lets hope they take my advice because I believe she isgreat each value at 33-1!
Slightly worrying that Henry Cecils 2 fancied horses bothran disappointingly here yesterday which isnt the confidence boost you needwith Frankel running on Saturday at Newbury!!
However he sends out some big names this weekend and Ibelieve Henry will becoming home with a smile on his face!
Surprising that Frankie Dettori wasnt on the 2 Godolphinhorses yesterday and they were both ridden by the 19 year old from franceMickael Barzalona.
Barzalona missed the kick on his first ride but won on thesecond while Frankie won a later race on Dordogne for Mark Johnston.
I was out at the beautiful Swynford Paddocks hotel lastnight hosting a sportsmans evening in aid of the Bob champion Cancer Trust.
Bob who celebrated the 30th anniversary ofAldanitis great win in the Grand National at Aintree on Saturday where therace named after him raised100,000 was in good form last night and another8,000 was raised.
Since his win Bob champion has raised nearly 14,000,000 forhis Cancer Trust and I believe he should be Sir Bob Champion!
Its going to be a great weekends sport with the Greenhamat Newbury and the Scottish National up at Ayr where Ill be presenting Channel4 Racing.
On Friday night Im also heading over to Edinburgh to meetup with my eldest son Alex to watch my second son James or Jim as hes knownplay at Murrayfield against a strong Italian side.
Then on Sunday Im off racing at Stratford!
