Clock strikes in opener
Police prevails in Beamish battle
.It was worth missing Christmas for this. We had it in our minds to come for this race as it was a nice prize,.
Pineau performs as Cadspeed flops
The favourite probably didn't perform but he won snug enough,.
Rambo rocks as another hotpot beaten
.We thought he'd win at Dromahane last time but he was beaten by a newcomer and it looked a good race,. We've always thought a lot of him. He was also second at Ballindenisk and the horse that was third then won by 20 lengths on Sunday.
Moving back on top
That was his 99th run today,. He loves being handy and doesn't like to be crowded in his races. He'll get a holiday now for a couple of months . I think he deserves it.
Lambe continues bright new year
Briar makes impression in bumper
He hadn't shown me anything until he worked the other day,. He's probably the type to show more on the track and that's a good sign in a horse. We haven't decided whether or not he'll go over hurdles but I'd imagine after that he'd be good enough for a winners bumper. A step up in trip would probably do him no harm either and on his pedigree he'd probably prefer better ground too.
