Paul Webber Racing

AUSTRALIA DAY has just set off to Taunton on a retrieval mission for his unfortunate experience at Kempton last month. He was a little stiff and sorry for himself after slipping on landing at the first hurdle, before completing four miles around Kempton, including the jumping of two steeplechase fences! He schooled well yesterday and looks to be back to his usual fierce form. The track and the ground are ideal and he has an 'evens favourite's' chance..... but then we said this last time.
AUSTRALIA DAY was one of 22 horses that schooled yesterday. TIME FOR RUPERT and PENNY QUEEN practised over our specially-made replica of Hayock's brush hurdle, (or mini steeplechase fence) in preparation for 'RUPERT's seasonal debut in their valuable handicap on 21st Nov. He schooled really well and looks every bit the chaser-in-the-making, but is only a five year old and the competition in this season's novice chase division looks terrifying! I'm hoping that he'll make into the top level of the staying hurdlers and saturday will tell us whether he will.
EDGEBRIAR schooled over fences for the first time this autumn and looked awesome. Others that impressed include, COIS FARRAIG, ASHAMMER, SARANDO, BLACK ANNIE and KRISTALLO. With some of our runners having needed their first run upto now, i feel that the string are now pretty straight and should show their best efforts now.
Please keep those fingers crossed!
