Infection is my big bugbear
After the excitement and thrills of winning the two big Christmas chases at Kempton and Leopardstown, with Edredon Bleu and Best Mate, our spirits have been further raised by a couple of excellent January weekends which produced doubles for our yard on consecutive Saturdays. Yet despite these victories, it has been business as usual at West Lockinge Farm and there have been several surprise reversals with some of the promising younger horses.

Wanted: A Few Good Clippers (of equestrian land use articles)
The Equestrian Land Conservation Resource is looking for clippers--people who are concerned about the loss of equestrian land and riding areas and want to do something about it.

The articles assist the ELCR in developing a national perspective responsive to the diverse local issues and conditions affecting equestrian access to trails, open space, and land use.
