We look like having two runners at Market Rasen this afternoon, although yesterday when all the rain was coming down, we expected soft / heavy ground and both horses to be pulled out.

Market Rasen say they missed the rain apart from 4mil in the morning. I hope this is correct.

Rock On Harry we purchased for the winter but we switched his seasons around as he didn't handle a softer surface. He's finished second in his past two runs and deserves to pick up a race. He must have nice ground.

Guinness Affair will also be taking on a softer surface than he likes. He needs to run as it will be 50 days plus without running with the NH hunt break starting after this meeting. Guinness is in good form but must give a lot of weight away to a couple of horses that won last time out.

Hopefully the going is decent and we'll see how we go.
