Compton Falcon

07/06/2007

Last weekend we had 2 winners from 3 runners. On Friday night Passing Hour won a Maiden Fillies race at Goodwood over 1 mile and All the Good won at Musselburgh over 1m 6f. It was pleasing to see him bounce back after a disappointing run previously.

This weekend we run Compton Falcon at Haydock’s Friday evening meeting in a 1m 4f Maiden. He was very green on his first run when he finished 3rd, and will hopefully have come on from this and Nicky Mackay will ride. On Saturday also at Haydock we run Dansant in a 1m 4f Handicap ridden by Francis Norton.

At Goodwood on Saturday, Nayyir will run in the 3.25pm Listed race ridden by Hugh Bowman. This will be Nayyir’s first run since coming back from Dubai. I am pleased to say that he has been going well at home and we are looking forward to his reappearance on the track. Also at Goodwood is Jafaru, who has won his last 2 starts. He will be ridden on Saturday by Frankie Dettori and will again wear blinkers.

Our other runners on Saturday are Stark Contrast in a 1m 1f Maiden at Musselburgh, ridden by John Egan, and Arithmatix in a 1m Maiden at Windsor ridden by Hadden Frost who claims 7lbs.
