Better Late...

Better late than never. That's what we say back in England, probably because we've become so used to British Rail services over the years - the relief of a train turning up at all overcomes the fact that it's two hours late! Anyway, I've had all sorts of things keeping me away from the PC these last couple of days, so it's time to catch up a bit.

Tenshinramman, featured in this month's Carrot Club magazine, along with Agua De Vida, is still on course for the 23rd, and Miracle Rouge is provisionally booked for the 16th at Nagoya. Dinner Bell should be out for the 5R (1400m turf) at Nagoya on the day before, although the biggest hopes for the weekend lie with Irish Harp at Hanshin on the 15th. Although I personally would have continued with Cristian Demuro as jockey, this time she teams up with Mirco Demuro (Cristian's older brother) for the 3R (1400m on dirt), and it should be a race well worth watching.

In other Carrot news, Mistoffelees has been released for some R&R, while Classic Curl is improving. The bad times posted are blamed on the bad ground, and that seems fair enough. Meanwhile, there are thoughts of trying Single Cask on dirt.
