ToF Update - 9 Sept 08

Callwood Dancer ran a good race on Sunday in the Canadian Stakes (G2) at Woodbine. The liver chestnut daughter of Danehill Dancer only just failed to nodge another stakes win onto her resume when she was overtaken late by J'ray. She will win a nice race yet!

Clinch, a 7-year-old son of Skywalker, is back on the work tab. I had not heard anything about him since May this year and I am glad he is back. I expect him to race fairly shortly. He is a seven-time winner and I hope he will add some more wins soon!

Another back on the work tab is a filly called Carmel Coffee , a 4-year-old Holy Bull half sister to Premium Tap. She has only ran three times, but did show some talent at the time. She won her second start and placed in an allowance in her next start in February 08. She must have gotten injured as nothing was heard from her since March. Nice to see her back and I hope she will continue where she left off.

Looks like Dusk and Southern Mistral will meet each other in the 9.20 at Kempton tomorrow. It is always interesting when two of my horses meet. My guess is that Dusk will finish before Southern Mistral, but that neither will win - we'll see!

Another two that might meet at a slightly higher level are Frozen Fire and Warringah, who both are likely to run in the St Leger at Doncaster. Frozen Fire has not run since his Irish Derby win, but is likely to go off favourite. The distance will be a stiff test, but he goes in the ground, which is likely to be soft, wet and sticky as rain is still battering the British isles. Warringah goes in with less credentials, but will go well in the ground and should run well .
