Rain, rain and for good measure a bit more rain!

Rain, rain and for good measure a bit more rain! Several meetings off already this week, and heavy everywhere that is on.

A pretty quite week on the runners front with only Badgers Cove & Restless Harry out this week.  Badgers Cove to Southwell on Wednesday, in ground that he certainly did not relish. He made hard work of it, but looked as if he was hating the bog! A few very untypical jumping errors did not help, although turning in and hot on the heels of the leader I thought we might get there. Unfortunately the leader kept finding a bit and  try as he might Charlie could just not rein him in. A good second though, and the third horse 28 lengths behind him. Better ground will help next time.
