A Weekend To Savour

10th June 2009

This coming Saturday we are likely to have one of our biggest days of the turf season thus far with four possible runners pencilled in on the day. In the afternoon, we will be heading in the direction of Bath and are likely to send our Australian import Denton (pictured) there to make his first start in Europe.

Both horses have been giving Jeremy the right signs in their fast work of late and the former in particular should give a very good account of himself.

The three-year-old is sure to benefit from the experience of what was his first start in a handicap and can be expected to show much-improved form when encountering a more forgiving racing surface. We have a box at Salisbury for every meeting there this year, so if you
