Having won twice in three races, poor Sayesse couldn't get the job done for us at Epsom today, but it was a Class 1 Listed Stakes race, so just being there was an achievement. It was worth a crack, and I'm proud of him anyway - there's still a lot of flat racing left to go in the UK, and he'll win again for sure. Perhaps Masterson will give me my 50th?
Meanwhile, there's already preliminary listings and talk of new Japanese club catalogues coming out. This is normally a highlight in the year for me, but there is no interest at all this time around. Whatever arrives will go straight on the shelf, unopened, placed alongside older editions, and there they will stay until they are needed for future reference. At least there are exciting things happening 6000 miles away in the background. Time for some big changes and proper racing, in a land far, far away.
