Hexham over the hills !

Off for a busy day at Hexham today with plenty of rides for the Gee Aker Malayo Handicap Chase day - sponsored in the main by some lovely owners Suzanne Ramsay and Nigel Williams after one of their ex race horses - I hope the sun stays out for their race day and invited party.

5 rides today starting off with the old warrior Prince of Slane - at his best he would pick these up and carry them - lets hope he does ! I have ridden the fav before on recent form he would win but he often doesnt run two races alike so hopefully we have a small each way chance.

Cash on Friday and Cast Iron Casey will run well - I was really impressed with Cash on Friday first time and as long as he doesnt bounce he should go well. Cast Iron is a really good horse and the step up in trip should help him in the feature race.

Of the other two both have place claims with the bumper horse being a lovely long term prospect for the MS Borders race club who have had many a nice horse in the past.On his bumper form County Colours would win so he must have a huge chance in the 3.30 - a race Howard Johnson won also last year.
