Emma has joined us for the season, she has been riding out for the last couple of days and will be a great addition to the small team we have here. Tom Campbell was in for a few routine vaccinations and to deal with a few other issues.
Hopstrings has come out of her race well and seems happy. I haven't had a chance to look for another race for her as yet but will do so tonight.
We sat on all the Derby Sale horses in their stables today and I can't see any issues arising with any of them. Mind and Charlie's Robin Des Champs filly was ridden around the school and is lovely. Robert Chugg has to be one of the best, if not the best producers of horses. His horses know their job and are a joy to deal with. Robert was one of the first people to support me when I set the business up and I will always be hugely appreciative of that support when it was desperately needed. I have always had the odd horse for him and have trained him a couple of winners. He is one of the first people I pick the phone up to when I need advice. Once the horses were done and dusted for the morning I spent the afternoon in the office before evening stables.
A heat wave is forecast, enjoy the summer while you can, it will be raining soon.
