So proud of Jack who completed his first marathon this morning in 4:38:06 and has already raised over £4k for MND Association - top man!

Right on cue, the clouds cleared midmorning and it’s another lovely day in Newmarket. Currently 15 degrees, forecast high 19 #HiddenPearl #FlyingStar #Merrijig

No sign of the sun yet this morning Newmarket Gallops but it’ll appear before too long. Should end up being another pleasant, warm day. 7 degrees early; currently 12; forecast high 19 #HiddenPearl #TarbatNess #Duchess #LittlePeter

Drop in coaching session’s for all licensed jockeys at Warwick Racecourse today between 11-4. Everyone welcome, you can call me or DM me about parking.

It’s been another warm & very pleasant day in Newmarket. It clouded over for a couple of hours midmorning after a lovely start, but then the sun reappeared and it settled into being another idyllic spring day #Duchess #Merrijig

I see that Worcester’s meeting on 24th May has been transferred to Hereford. I trust, Terry The Handicapper, that if you catch any of your grandchildren calling this fixture “Worcester at the Big H”, you’ll make sure that they’re sent straight to bed without their usual mug of Ovaltine.

Drop in coaching sessions starting at Warwick Racecourse tomorrow, between 11am-4pm. All licensed jockeys, both jump and flat welcome.

Two happy horses enjoying each other’s company on a beautiful morning Newmarket Gallops #HiddenPearl #Hiccups (Serious point re the supposedly ‘cruellest cut of all’, ie the kindest cut: there’s no way Hiccups could enjoy life like this but for having been gelded).

A splendid start to the day in Newmarket. A bit chilly to start with, with a heavy dew; but already up to 9 degrees. Forecast high 18 with plenty of sunshine #Morston #Gus

Started off lovely, warm & sunny but it’s clouding over & getting fresher by the end of the morning Newmarket Gallops. Feels like we might have some rain this afternoon #Merrijig

A glorious Sunday in Newmarket. Got a bit chilly in the night but started to warm up as soon as the sun started to come up. 15 degrees midmorning; forecast high 18. Should be lovely at the Rowley Mile this afternoon #Natagora #Morston #Gus #FlyingStar #HiddenPearl #CloudyRose

It has turned out to be a very pleasant Saturday Newmarket Gallops once the sun had worked its way through the clouds. All eyes on the Rowley Mile for the QIPCO 2,000 Guineas but we’re off to Great Yarmouth Races for Flying Star’s debut at 7.00 #Hiccups

Plenty of water on the ground after yesterday’s rain. Clouds in the sky and a chilly start but it should be a nice day Newmarket Gallops when the sun breaks through. 7 degrees, forecast high 17 #TarbatNess #Dereham #DasKapital

A grey, damp morning Newmarket Gallops but the rain so far has only been intermittent and very light. I suspect there may be more of it later #Merrijig #Duchess #Hiccups #DasKapital #Dereham

We’ve lost the lovely weather of earlier in the week. Just starting to spit with rain in Newmarket now. Looks like it could rain on & off through the day. Currently 10 degrees, forecast high 13

This is very well worth reading. I know I’m biased, but for me this is the best, most informative & enlightening article I’ve ever read about Aidan.
