Dream must have read the last blog and knows that she has been entered on Sunday because she has now gone hopping lame - she pulled up lame after a piece of work on the grass gallops on Monday - at first I thought it must be a blown tendon but her legs are clean with no heat or swelling. We think she has pulled a muscle in her shoulder. She is by Alflora and they are known to take a long time to mature so ultimately she needs more time. She will see a chiropractor to make sure that there is nothing structurally wrong and then have a holiday. We thought it was too good to be true..... The good news is that Dove, Frog and particularly Red went really well today.
It's Doug's birthday today - I have bought him tickets for Cheltenham tomorrow and we will have a meal on the way home at The Plough - tonight, however, he will just have to put up with my cooking - the Apprentice is on tonight so that's me finished in the office!
