Proper wet morning today, first one for months, soaked by 6.30am, not good for morale, schools & AW scheduled for this morning, maybe a pop over the hurdles if it relents a little later. A productive day at the Cumberland Farmers p2p where the weather wasn't too bad at all, just some soft rain, and the ground was perfect resulting in loads of runners. The two maidens ran much better than of late, appreciating the surface and galloping track, Flaming Thistle came 4th of 16 in his division and Northern Flame 6th of 17 in his, both jumping with much more purpose than in the the past, something to build on I hope. Earlier Native Coll ran a very solid race to be 4th of 8 in the Northern Area race. The nomad wending her way back from Fakenham, no winners but both placed, hopefully back home for a couple of days before Sedgefield on Friday......
