Our syndicate still have the lease on Carbis Bay whose running at Kempton today in the Beginners Chase - currently 125/1 tells you everything you need to know - Hopefully he'll get round in his own time for his own confidence.

Sorry to read your sad news Cantoris and the other owners on the board - a great shame.

Good luck today Roddy
 
Catch The Fire a non runner? Is reported as one in Racing post reporter section, but nowhere else so far.

Thanks for the commiserations, it is appreciated. These things happen in racing. All owners know what they are getting themselves into. But still, it hurt. The owner/breeder was fairly upset but he has a four year old sister in the yard so she might come our way in the future.
 
Some nice entries for my homebred, CHAMPAGNE BABE. Listed at York on Friday and a Class 3 Conditions race at Newbury same day. Trainer obviously thinks a bit of her and would be amazing for me if she could sneak a place in a Listed! Help make her dam for sure getting a bit of black type on the page.....
 
William Butler is entered at Fontwell over 2m 6f on Thursday - the drop in trip should suit him but we wouldn't want any more rain and a few of the 22 entrants dropping out (14 would do) would be helpful also.

Friend saw CHAMPAGNE BABE's trainer yesterday. Trainer says she is the most professional of fillies but she is on the small side and the ground may sap her stamina. Dam's sire is HERNANDO though and CAPTAIN RIO's usually cope with soft so I reckon it's just going to be down to whether she breaks well and is gutsy enough to grind it out !

Good luck with yours, Roddy.
 
She came seventh - not quite good enough although maybe some excuse re ground - maybe she does need good to firm! Broke very well and tried, so can't fault her heart!
 
Fantastic Run Roddy. Had them all rowing away a long way out and only challenger was due to the weight difference. Going to Bangor tomorrow, I hope Hodgson is going to do the business as he will be carrying my money.
