We have just bought lot 385 out of the Derby Sale, I was actually under bidder but he was bought back in on the day. We have done a deal and Ben Brain vetted him yesterday, all was well and he will be collected by Ken Gamble next week. He is out of Lady Mariah, she was unraced but a half sister to the great race mare Mariah Rollins. We all loved him at the sale and am delighted to have got him.
50% of him will go into the Pudlicote Partnership and the other 50% will be owned by an individual.
This morning was a bit disjointed as I was dealing with a broken water trough. Countrywide has to be the worse shop in the world, I've never liked it and seldom go there. This morning Stow Ag was shut so my options were limited. Unless your a happy hacker they are the store with everything that no one wants. Tracks Perkins came to the rescue and the horses soon had their water in full swing. Talking of swing, Tiger Woods is in the front rank of the British Open and playing really well. I'm a big fan of Tigers.
The second test is a bit disappointing as it looks as if there is no match at all. However, it has been a fantastic summer of sport.
This afternoon Panda and went for a ride before evening stables.
