A huge congrats to INTIMATE ART and all connections for winning the 19.30 PGMS Handicap Stakes!

Fine ride from Rob Hornby to get Intimate Art up to win in the shadow of the post at Lingfield. It was the gelding’s third win from twelve starts.

Andrew Balding’s first runner of the day was Rebel Streak at Newmarket, the gelding followed up his Windsor win last time with a second place finish in the 4.40, Jason Watson was in the saddle.

Form figures for the day: 2nd (Rebel Streak), 3rd (Count Octave), 1st (Intimate Art). 🐎🐎🐴

Just one in action today for Park House Stables – Wingingit goes in the Listed race at Pontefract at 3.30, P J McDonald rides.

Wingingit was very unlucky at Pontefract, she traveled well but got no breaks in the home straight.

Sweet Lady Rose finishes a nice second under Jimmy Quinn in the 2.30 at Chepstow, she has progressed from her debut effort at Kempton in November.

Jimmy Quinn also rides Deliverance in the 4.30 at Chepstow, the three-year-old colt should go well on only his third racecourse appearance.

This is wonderful. 👌 x.com/skynews/status…

First season sire #CharmSpirit scored again as his son Forseti battled gamely to win a maiden at Salisbury, his second outing only. Congratulations to all the connections ! #Sireonfire #Firstseasonsire #Smart2yo #TripleG1winner #Miler

Two runners today for AB: Forseti won the 2.10 at Salisbury under Oisin Murphy and in the 6.50 at Bath David Probert rode Strict Tempo to a third place (she was also a bit of a monkey flashing her tail).

Ok, a different kind of horsepower – I passed my driving test today. 🚙🐴

Three runners today for Park House Stables.

Newmarket: 4.25 Berkshire Boy – Jason Watson, 5.00 Bacacarat – David Probert. Leicester: 7.50 Highland Pass – Liam Keniry.

After one winner and three placed horses (and a 3rd and a 5th) yesterday, what will today have in store ... 🐴🐴☀️

Some very disappointing field sizes at Windsor both today and yesterday.

On the 15th September, I will be running in the Oslo Marathon, raising money for two cancer charities – any contributions would be greatly appreciated. gofundme.com/mathew039s-osl…

Something to brighten up your Monday morning
