    Hello, team. Hope everyone on the well side of well.

    In my opinion there is an eye-catching one making her debut for Lieutenant Henderson at Southwell of the morrow.

    EREMENKO (3.50) is a 4YO Walk In The Park filly who is a half-sister to the stable's Cheltenham Festival winner, Doddiethegreat, and also Carrie Des Champs (6 time winner who was also Listed placed).

    Has to be viewed as a positive that Eremenko's dam (Asturienne) won on her bumper bow as did the aforementioned Doddiethegreat back in '20. Plus, Seven Barrows is ticking along nicely at the moment - at the time of writing the stable's last 2 runners were both victorious and Lieutenant Henderson's strike rate since 6 May is 47%.

    The old girl finds herself up against some potentially decent sorts from other top yards (one of whom cost €125,000), at Southwell, but very interesting to see how Eremenko fares on her racecourse bow.

    Good luck, all.

    16.32 Nottingham Native Spirit 10/3 Hills

    The Bin Suroor horse is favourite here and has the experience but he's only rated 77 and you might have thought they would go handicapping.

    The selection is a son of Ghaiyyath who cost 200,000 and would need to be a disappointment if not up to winning this. I would hope to see support and for him to go off favourite.

    The vibes were not good and he wasn't impressive in the paddock. Quite a small colt. Travelled OK but he was seriously out paced before sticking on in 4th. Seems sure to be upped in trip now. The favourite was beaten and the winner was well backed early doors. Serenity Blue came into the closing stages cruising and should have more wins in him. This was a good step forward from his debut.
