Sam was in for the morning, we schooled Virtuoso Rouge, Net Work Rouge, Gunner Road ( Grape Tree Road 3 year old), Vazaro Delafayette and Knight Of Noir. Hopstrings and Alflora gelding jumped the baby fences. All horses jumped well.
Mags O'Toole was here to see the sales horses and was complimentary about all bar 1 which she wouldn't have as a present! I love straight talking people, it makes life so much easier. Mags buys mostly for clients who have horses in training in Ireland, she wants horses that will cope on the soft. Ireland is apparently under water. She mentioned that she hadn't seen so much standing water in 30 years and the country will take a year to recover.
Dark Tartan, Medieval Gateway, Major Martin and Sargent Thunder went for an away gallop, I was pleased with all of them.
We have oil in the tank and heating on, this house will take a day or 2 to defrost!
