It is no doubt a false dawn as we're only just into February but things have felt a bit more spring-like this week with some milder weather and the grass canter opening on Warren Hill. I'm not putting the winter woolies away just yet though as February can be a cold month but on the plus side it is getting a bit lighter in the mornings which makes things feel much nicer. Sadly no joy for us on the track this week with Stintino Sunset running another good race in defeat at Kempton on Wednesday evening whilst Zany Idea and Arpina were a bit disappointing at Chelmsford the following day. N.E.T. Racing Club members all received an email update after Zany's race which can be found here if you missed it: https://mailchi.mp/5f95d40eb533/zany-idea-post-race-report-12213686 This week looks a quieter one runners-wise with entries towards the end of the week. Engrave has come out of her Newcastle win in great form and only went up 2lbs in the ratings so she is entered at Chelmsford on Friday. She is racing in a higher grade but we know she loves the track and it should be a small field of runners so hopefully another good run is likely. On Saturday we have two entries at Lingfield. As mentioned, Arpina ran below-par last time but the hold-up tactics probably didn't suit her and 1m2f might not be her best trip so dropping back to one mile on a course she has ran well at before can hopefully see her fare better. Owner Steve Clarke will be doubly represented as Stintino Sunset also heads to the Surrey venue. She has been banging on the door and will win when things drop her way. Hopefully that day comes soon as she is a tough and genuine filly. Comments are closed.
