Counsel won nicely at Lingfield on Friday, showing a nice turn of foot. He seems to be getting quicker and enjoys his sprinting. I've not checked, but they can't be many 5f winners by Frankel?

Chepstow this afternoon with The Lord Maid in the 2:20.

He last run at Doncaster can be ignored, it was a farce of a race with just 4 hurdles jumped from memory due to low sun.
This is her first try at 3m, this is a question mark, but she'll love the ground.

If she stays, and that is an if, I'd be hopeful of a nice run.
A lot of weight is carried, it will be hard work for all horses at the meeting today.
