Cartmel Saturday

Makhzoon (Lucy)
A fine day and with the gallop having it's annual "service" the horses being sharpened up on the grass, riding nicely and the cattle joining in the gallop, quite fast some of them (or maybe the horses are quite slow?).  Cartmel have put on an excellent new meeting tomorrow and Monday, with good prize money and as a result have attracted many of the top trainers, and of course, ourselves who run three, Lucy rides them all and the ground is presently soft but I expect will be drying out fast; Northern Flame makes his chasing debut in the 3pm - 9 run, its a good race for him but I doubt the track will suit, he is very well though as is The Paddy Premium who despite being 12 shoulders top weight in the 3.35, this is a drop in grade for him and he could go very well if he has luck in running.  Our recent acquisition Makhzoon takes a big step up in class in the 5.25, it's ultra-competitive for a big prize but conditions should suit.... Lucy also rides Constant Contact in the 4.50 and Grethel in the 5.55.
