Soulless Doncaster, but having said that it has been a good stamping ground for Thorndale’s runners and more so for owner John Perriss.
Yesterday John’s Bobhopeornohope rather lived up to his name as for a second, when he completely fluffed his lines at the last, his chances of winning looked more Nohope than anything else..
But Bob was not for that and picked himself up with the help of the ever powerful and forceful jockey that David Bass has become, to win by two lengths, going away….
Bobhopeornohope has now won both of his hurdle starts and looks progressive..
Doncaster is a huge racecourse and does not do 'no crowds' well.. Not their fault, but if only they had shown the away races it might have made the experience better for those on track.
Saturday morning and hopefully the last one without visitors.
David Bass, Ciaran Gethings, Chester Williams and Harry Beswick were in this morning.. we worked a few, but no videos on here today as Maddie does not work weekends.. We will though be doing 'owner weekend videos'.
