Will you be going out to see him?

I'm not expecting much after a two year absence. Will they be running him on turf?

Would love to pop over there and see the big fella again. Maybe next year i will.

No I doubt i'll be going until March at the earliest. He's worked about 7 times in total now-the last being over 6 Furlongs yesterday and an entry is about to be made.

I think it's 2 years ago this week or so that he last ran

He's working really well but he's been on the Stewards List since the last run because the Owners hadn't renewed their licence/s

I think they renewed at the end of last week but we've missed 1 race because of this slight hiccup

Thanks for the update. I had wondered why there had been so many workouts and no sign of a run.

He looks to be coming back to himself, especially for a horse that never really showed a great deal when he worked back at home. As a two year old he worked well (and thw whole town knew it) but he became a very lazy beast. I remember travelling down to Goodwood when he ran in the Stewards Cup and taking him from the yard to the track, he was almost asleep in the box!

Are you planning on going to see him soon?
