Sam (AP) Drinkwater spent the morning telling us that he was now a highly sought after jockey and would be flying in a helicopter from Lincoln to Fontwell. I have a friend who flies helicopters so made enquires for him. Sadly, due to air traffic control around Heathrow he would have to fly around the west side of London to get to Fontwell. As he only has 50 minuets and a journey time in the helicopter is 2.5 hours he will now stay in Lincoln and come home in the horsebox!
Below is a picture of Ellin's Tower who has been here for loose schooling. Sam in the saddle.
I forgot to upload a picture on Monday of Sholto taking Chiquilline for a lead out on Sunday after his Haydock run on the Saturday. We are on skeleton staff over the weekends and Sholto is always up for helping out. After he had finished dealing with Chiquilline I made him muck out 35 stables! He soon lost the hoodie!
