Really think one of the Roger’s will have a winner at Lingers Park this eve – Mr Varian with SHARGIAH (6.30). This one did very little in his opening 2 runs but showed a good attitude to win at Rippers, last time out, back in July. Looks likely to prove much better, in time, than his perch of 81 (half-brother to a Group 2 winner) and the fact that connections are persavering with him speaks volumes. Can start his 2017 campaign with a victory here.
I can report that old boy Jerry Corbyn was in the county on Friday. The ‘court order’ though meant that I couldn’t go and say hello. He’s as mad as a box of frogs, of course, but I don’t think Jerry’s actually that bad an egg. He’s certainly got the right idea re those Saxe-Coburgs! Incidentally, re them has anyone noticed how this past week a few of them have been going out of their way to be seen to be ‘doing good’ rather than simply cashing their giro behind closed doors?!? There’s nothing that terrifies a Saxe-Coburg more than the possibility of someone like old boy Jerry getting in or far, far, far more likely a strong Governement with a whopping majority! The latter can be almost Dictarioral, of course with the powers to wipe out most things!
Good luck all.
