Chelmsford on Friday and the Weather
We were considering running Black Truffle at Chelmsford on Friday but with the weather being as it is I think it is best to leave it. Chelmsford is bad enough on your average winter day but the thought of being snowed in there is too much! There will be plenty more opportunities for him coming up. It’s not very nice getting the horse out at home, let alone going racing. We are doing the bare minimum with them, getting them out and in as quick as possible but if any more snow comes we might have to leave them in until it clears. It won’t do them any harm to miss a few days; the most important thing is to keep them warm. I just pray the weather turns for the better soon.
Assuming it does I can see Bird For Life and/or Shamonix being our next runners at Kempton on the 7th March. Until then it just a case of surviving!
