Well done Stuart and thank you for your response.Lanarkshire Boys are panicking about the  130 mile jump next week but as i have said before if they are fit and healthy, bred for the job there should be no problems.Gets rid of your 98% sh-te in a wanner. ;) ;)

No offence intended to anyone, in my opinion the birds haven't really had a testing race so far, wind has mostly been for them. Every race so far, I've had birds in for their first race, including today, a 2-yo latebred hen, 1 race last year, 62 miles, straight in at 187 miles, and she's here.

 

I'm pretty new at jumping birds into races, the last one that I wasn't happy with is raking the skies tonight, a yearling hen, and my next race is 224 miles. It's either that or she misses everything worth going to this year.

 

So I personally don't see a problem with Lanarkshire starting at Wakefield next week, provided the wind is for the birds. (SE)
