SOUTH CAPE by Cape Cross – South Cape is now back in full-training at Mick Channon’s. He has settled into his racing routine great and at a recent stable visit looked an absolute picture, muscling up but still retaining condition since his return. After such a great season in 2007, we are hopeful of a repeat performance this year and South Cape will be aimed at 7furlong/mile races at the likes of Ascot (including Royal Ascot) Goodwood and Chester where we know he runs well.

RUBILINI by Bertolini - After her win at Southwell, it has been somewhat difficult to place Rubilini on the flat. Trainer Sheena West feels that trying a stint over hurdles is the best option to win races. She has been schooled and taken to jumping no problem. The recent wet weather has meant the ground has not been suitable for the filly but Sheena plans to make some entries in the next week or so – Plumpton on 21^st April looking a strong possibility. Owner hotline press button 12 for RUBILINI.

TOBAGO BAY by Tobougg – We have now seen three encouraging runs from Tobago Bay and it appears the penny has final dropped. It was clear on his last outing at Lingfield Park however that the horse just needs further. 3-year old only races over 1mile 6/2miles begin to emerge in June/July accordingly so Tobago Bay will now have a 4 week rest until he has his preferred distances. His owners also like the idea of sending their horse juvenile hurdling and that too looks a strong possibility once the new jumps season is underway. Owner hotline press button 13 for TOBAGO BAY.

ALMIZAN by Darshan – Almizan was due to run at Kempton Park last week in a 3mile chase but due to all the rain Gary felt it wasn’t worth risking the horse’s confidence on soft ground. He is entered for Plumpton this Monday 7^th April in a Novice Handicap Chase over 2mile 4furlongs. Gary believes the conditions of this race will suit Almizan and, if he can put in a clear round, should stand a very good chance. The trip is a little short but there are limited races over 3miles in April, the next possibility being at Wincanton on Sunday 20^th April. Owner hotline press 14 for ALMIZAN.

OR JAUNE (Fr) by Grand Tressor - Fontwell Park Racing -Things are really starting to get exciting in this partnership as Or Jaune is now very nearly ready to be back doing what he does best – winning races! This fantastic horse has won 4 out of 8 races (with 2 places) and having grown and strengthened during his rest, looks to have a bright chasing career ahead of him as well. A recent stable visit also saw him flying over fences! Gary has pencilled in 26 April at Sandown over hurdles before sending the horse Novice Chasing come May. Owner hotline press 15 for OR JAUNE.

CUBAN RHYTHM by Kingmambo – Good News regarding this promising filly. She is now back in full-training and, after a short course of treatment from the Chiropractor, seems to be working impressively. At a recent stable visit she looked in good shape and was certainly keen to get about her job, on her toes and taking a good hold. Roger’s 3-year olds are just starting to appear on the track and he feels this filly is only 4-5 weeks away. She will probably go over a mile to begin with but will want 10-12 furlongs eventually. Owner hotline press 16 for CUBAN RHYTHM.

ENTHUSIUS by Generous – Fontwell Park Racing – Enthusius continues to be on the walker everyday since picking-up a slight tendon strain earlier on this year. The good news is that the injury was not serious and trainer Gary Moore is hopeful to have him back on the track in October. We are confident of exciting things to come from this big individual who has already won two races and showed a great deal of promise. Owner hotline press 17 for ENTHUSIUS.

RHODE ISLAND RED by Tale of the Cat – This filly is back in full-training after having a short break. She took a slight knock to her rear-hind when at Wolverhampton last time out but speaking to trainer Harry Dunlop this morning, he reported she had worked enthusiastically and moved very well. He feels it will only take him 4/5 weeks to get her back to race fitness and will now start looking for races on the turf, over a straight mile towards the end of April/beginning of May. Owner hotline press button 18 for RHODE ISLAND RED.

CLEAR DAYLIGHT by DAYLAMI – Great news! Clear Daylight is now back in full-training at John Best’s. This son of Daylami is expected to really come into himself as a three-year old especially as he can go over middle distances and has matured over the winter. We will arrange a visit to see Clear Daylight once his buttons are pushed thus getting a good idea of his race plan for 2008. Owner hotline press 19 for CLEAR DAYLIGHT.

TIM (stable name) an unnamed 2yo colt by BERTOLINI– Trainer John Best gets his youngsters going up the gallops early then brings them back to walking, thus allowing time to grow and mature. This strategy has certainly worked with our Bertolini colt who is now looking an absolute picture. His summer coat is through, he has grown a great deal, is now back cantering and John Best is very pleased with his development. Our next stable visit has been arranged for Saturday 12^th April at 10am – we would be delighted if you could join us. Please call Eloise on 0780 9087136 to book your place. Owner hotline press 21 for TINY TIM.

NELLY (stable name) an unnamed 2yo filly by IMPERIAL DANCER – This filly continues to develop well at Mick Channon’s as her training programme is stepped up. Imperial Dancer offspring (there are 28 in total in 2008) are now starting to appear on track, Mick’s Imperial Skylight finishing a close third last week at Kempton Park. The West Ilsely team are hopeful this filly will be racing by late May and she will go over 6 or 7 furlongs initially. One share still remains in this exciting partnership for only £750 with top two-year trainer Mick Channon. Owner hotline press 22 for NELLY.

MOSHAHED by Nashwan – Fontwell Park Racing – A big, bold horse with a large frame, Moshahed is now enjoying a few months rest in preparation for his chasing career over the summer (by Nashwan, our fellow does prefer better ground.) He is out in the paddocks everyday, already filling-out and is due to commence roadwork early May. Owners are welcome to visit their horse whenever they wish, please call Eloise or John the day before to confirm. Owner hotline press 23 for MOSHAHED.

LINDY LOU (stable name) an unnamed 2yo filly by MEDICEAN– Since this filly has been in full-training at Gary Moore’s, she has really excelled and is now making a very good impression on his Horsham gallops. She works with some very classy 2-year old colts Gary recently bought from the breeze-up sales and easily holds her own – no wonder interest in her is high! We now have just 5 shares remaining in his promising partnership at only £1850 for a 5% stake. Why not see her working on the gallops for yourself at our next stable visit on Friday 19^th April?
