John and Mandy Battershall were here second lot to see their KBRP horse Younevercall and Involve while Darren Smith was here to see his KBRP horses Monrocco, Vinndication and Dusty Pearl; also here were Derek, Gary and  Darren Cambell. Suzanne Proctor called in mid morning to see her KBRP horse Ascotdeux Nellerie.

The jockey merry go round has reared up again in Ireland when Gigginstown announced that they have sacked their jockey Bryan Cooper.. What next? Who next?

The chances of it happening again are so minimal.. million to one. In the end it is the trainers responsibility to make sure the right horse is saddled and running, as it is with us to make sure the right horse even gets to the right racecourse..

I am sure there won't be any problems at Flat racings big day, or rather Ascots.

Todays meeting at Ascot means that Goodwood is next week, which is probably the best meeting of the year.. I so enjoy Goodwood, although this year I have runners at the two day meeting at Perth..

"Could you please go shopping for me and buy one carton of milk, and if they have eggs, get 6!"

A short time later the husband comes back with 6 cartons of milk.

He replied, "They had eggs."
