We are excited about running Royal Riviera again tomorrow, when he lines up at Kempton in the maiden over one mile four. Tony Bloom's gelding made an encouraging debut on the flat at Chepstow recently and he will no doubt come on for that run. The Kempton race looks to be competitive but we are confident of a good effort from the son of Nayef (pictured left, working at home).
Saturday 26th June- Shahwardi And Mrs Penny Run Today
Today we Send Sharwardi to Newmarket to run in the listed race at 2.45. The Lando colt does tend to get worked up before his races and the hot weather isn't going to do him any favours but he will take his chance in the five runner field and we hope he will go well under Steve Drowne. Mrs Penny heads north to Doncaster tonight. The mare is due a bit of luck and we hope for a good showing from her under Luke Morris.
Wednesday 23rd June- Off To Kempton
Sulis Minerva and Law Of Attraction represent us at Kempton tonight. Sulis, who will be running for owner Richard Page, was badly hampered on her last start but still managed to run a good race. The filly is undoubtedly tough and we expect her to go very well in the fillies' handicap at 8.20. Law Of Attraction can be forgiven his poor last run as the ground was too firm for him and it will be interesting to see if he can put his best foot forward in the 6.50 handicap.

Monday 14th June- Next Stop The Wokingham
This week is all about Royal Ascot, as we head towards the eagerly anticipated Wokingham on Saturday with two runners. Stuart & Kate Dobb's Medicean Man and Tony Bloom's Able Master are both set to line up in the handicap and we are very much looking forward to having our first runners at the Royal meeting. Both horses enjoyed a gallop on turf this morning and will now be kept ticking over ahead of Saturday's race.

Friday 11th June- Golden Ratio Runs At Haydock
Today we head back up to Haydock with Golden Ratio (pictured left), who contests the ten furlong handicap due off at 9.20. The daughter of Noverre should appreciate the step up in trip and Franny Norton is booked for the ride. We had a frustrating day yesterday, with Flying Silks getting beaten in an incredibly close photo finish at Haydock. Trevor and Carol Coffen's horse ran a grave race and looks to be heading in the right direction again. Edition didn't seem to handle the rain-softened ground. Street Power ran a good third at Yarmouth and Adam Kirby reported that he wasn't entirely comfortable on the track. He has come home well and will be back out soon. Sulis Minerva was badly hampered at Kempton last night but ran a very good race to finish fifth. She will undoubtedly win races.

Thursday 10th June- A Hectic Afternoon
It's another busy day for the yard, with runners at three different meetings. First to line up will be Edition who is all set to run in the 3.50 at Haydock. The Bahamian Bounty colt ran with obvious promise at Windsor last time, when he came second despite being denied a clear run. He is currently for sale either outright, or possibly as part of a syndicate (we already have people interested in taking shares in him). For more information please contact Kelly Baker. Also running at Haydock is Flying Silks who will run for Trevor and Carol Coffen in the handicap over one mile due off at 4.20. Betwen the two, Street Power runs at Yarmouth in the six furlong handicap at 4.10. The horse is aiming to win his seventh race for us and the ground should suit him. Finally, this evening we run Richard Page's Sulis Minerva in the 7.20 at Kempton. Dever Dream looks fairly unbeatable but we hope Sulis will go well and run a decent race on her handicap debut.

Tuesday 8th June- Correlandie Runs At Salisbury
We head just down the road to Salisbury today, where we are represented in the 3.55 by Correlandie . The David Cox-owned filly is having her second start and we hope that she will improve from her debut, when she missed the break badly. The filly is a half-sister to the top sprinter Nuclear Debate and we are looking forward to seeing how she goes.
Friday 4th June- Goodwood, Wolves & Bath
We have a busy day today, with runners at Wolverhampton, Bath and Goodwood. We kick off the action with Winifred Jo, who runs at 2pm at Wolverhampton. Frank Lisewski's filly should appreciate the drop back to five furlongs and we are hopeful that she will improve from her last run. Following her is Thaliwarru who runs for Tony Bloom at Wolverhampton. The son of Barathea is in good form and we expect him to go well. Tony also has a runner at Goodwood today in the shape of Hill Tribe. She runs in the 7.35, just five minutes after Mrs Penny lines up at Bath. The ex-Australian import ran a promising fourth last time out and it wouldn't surprise us to see her go well again today.

Palindromic ran a very good race for owner Steve Herbert on Wednesday night. The two-year-old came fourth on his debut, despite missing the break and running green. He looks to be a horse that Steve can have some fun with.

Tuesday 1st June- Anne Of Kiev Runs Tonight
Tonight we send Anne Of Kiev up to Yarmouth where she lines up in the six furlong handicap for owner Philip Bamford. We expect another good run from the daughter of Oasis Dream who will be bidding to follow up from her win at Windsor last time out. Steve Drowne takes the ride.
Saturday 29th May- Flying Silks Goes To Beverley
Today we send Flying Silks (pictured left) up to Beverley. The son of Barathea has been ready to go for several weeks now but the rain that we have been waiting for has remained elusive and so we will let him take his chance on good to firm ground this afternoon. The horse is in great form and if the ground doesn't trouble him he should go well for owners Trevor and Carol Coffen.

Friday 28th May- RATS Invade Newmarket
Rowley and the Sectionals (the RATS) to their friends, are heading to Newmarket this afternoon to cheer on One Way Or Another in the valuable seven furlong handicap. The Carnegie gelding is bidding to prove he deserves a chance at Royal Ascot and we are hoping for a big run from him, although the going may be a little firmer than he would ideally like.
