Two Carlisle runners tomorrow – Kinneston

Positive and dry up to now this week after a stormy weekend.  Sadly the tail finish of Storm Ashley claimed Perth’s inaugural October fixture the place we had seven declared runners.  Irritating as we’re eager to get going and we didn’t study a lot at Hexham the place Artic Row and Half Monitor parted firm with their riders on the first leap, secure newcomers My Girl Elektra and Gorvennec each ran effectively to a degree however didn’t actually get house on the rain softened floor.  Additional frustration with Bel Amigo being eradicated at Carlisle tomorrow however we do have two different runners to look ahead to and hope to be busy at Kelso on Saturday and Ayr on Monday.  The bottom at Carlisle needs to be good to mushy and our runners are within the two divisions of the center distance handicap hurdle.

First up is Half Monitor within the 4.05, he actually doesn’t deserve the string of letters beside his title and I very a lot hope he can put this run of dangerous luck behind him tomorrow; he’s a proficient horse who ought to show significantly better than his present handicap mark in time however tomorrow’s race does look significantly aggressive – Brian Hughes rides and 12 run.

Maillot Blanc makes his second begin for the yard within the 4.40; he’s had his points and I’m simply delighted to see him again on the observe, he ought to enhance quite a bit for the run tomorrow – Bruce rides and 11 run.
