On Saturday we headed to Lingfield with TOWERLAND’S PARK. Dropped back to a mile, he was finishing his race really in the closing stages and it looks as though a return to further is needed. He remains lightly raced and will now head to the February Sales where hopefully he will catch someone’s eye. In the evening we headed to Kempton with CHOICE ENCOUNTER who was a recent course and distance winner at the track. Settled off the pace, he made some good headway wide, but was never going to catch the eventual winner who had already been sent for home.
On Wednesday we have declared NURSE NIGHTINGALE at Chelmsford where she is now a course and distance winner. She appears to be to be taking her racing well and it would great to get another win in the bag.
We have now nearly finished the month of trotting which the horses do during January. On Saturday it was the last Wooditton Road trot until next year. It is such a good trot for the horses and they really seem to benefit from doing the months trotting. The horses all look to have wintered well and seem really well in themselves.
