A good winner yesterday for my subscribers. Bubble And Squeak 6.45 Wolverhampton, was advised at 9/4 , scored a nice victory under Ben Curtis, who is riding very well. It was his third leg of a treble.
Racing goes ahead today at Lingfield and Southwell over jumps and Wolverhampton on the flat later today. At Wolverhampton, in the 4.45 Dubai Quality is short odds to win on debut. She has been showing plenty at home, and should win. Northern Poet 12.45 Lingfield, will try to follow up over course and distance, he stayed on strongly to win 21 days ago, and has a solid chance again here. Southwell has attracted only small fields for most of the races. I do like the look of Loveherandleaveher 12.30, she should get punters off to a good start.
Hopefully the injury picked up by Buveur D’Air on Saturday will not be a career ender. He was lame after his short head defeat by Cornerstone Lad. I was pleased to see the winner become the first Grade 1 victor for trainer Micky Hammond, he has been training well for a number of years. I rode with Micky, he was a good jockey and is doing a good job as a trainer.
