My hands are shaking so much I can barely type - We have just mucked out and Jake has had a bit of mud scraped off him - Laura will do the rest when we get there. The whole team is bubbling with excitement, particularly as the rain forecast will really help his cause, as the more of a stamina test the better. He has even been tipped by one racing site. Who would have believed it??!!
We have done our bit and now it is up to Pete and Fate. Lets just hope that he comes home safely. Thanks to everyone for all your good luck messages and cards. We cant tell you how much we appreciate it.
Off we go, gulp................
