BRAD THE BRIEF must have a great chance today - he’s been working really well at home. Hopefully he will handle the surface.

It wouldn’t be a total surprise if TREVOR ran a big race in the first at Goodwood - he’s a nice type.

This foal we bought yesterday really loves his food. He wolfs it all down then he demands more.

We’ve had two mares abort this week, both on nights where there were fireworks on locally. It’s a huge occupational hazard for our business. Don’t let anyone tell you that fireworks don’t upset animals.

Baaeed was a great racehorse but he is also a thing of beauty. I’ll be using him for sure - I hope he’s not too expensive.

Lovely picture of EARTHA KITT; dam of NOBLE STYLE. She’s a beautiful mare with a soft warm nature.
