Red Somerset - Winner

Red Somerset won at Wolverhampton this afternoon to record the 13th win of his career. Sent off the evens favourite he was entitled to win as he had at least 4lbs in hand on the rest of the field. He was struggling a little as they kicked on at the 3f marker but gradually wore down the opposition to win by 3/4 length. We will try and keep him to this grade and hopefully he can do well again. However, he has run 81 times in his career so we will take one race at a time.

On the gallops in the snow

Last week was not a great one with freezing conditions. However, despite nature's best efforts we were able to get the horses out on the gallops to canter as shown in the video of Saturday's first lot with freezing fog and the sun trying to break through. Temperatures were -6c at the time.
