[u]15:50, Exeter[/u] [i]Scary Canary[/i] I'll be honest and say perhaps he is not the best bred bumper horse we have ever had in the yard. But he is a half-brother to a couple of 2m hurdles winner and has plenty of pace in his pedigree, being by 6/7f winning sire Resplendent Cee out of a 6f winner. So this 1m5f race should be a fair starting point, and he has been going well enough, though he is a big, backward sort. As ever, the usual rules apply to my bumper newcomers - namely, he isn't fully wound up - but this may not be the strongest of bumpers.

But certainly ran a race full of promise at Wincanton and at one point...

[u]13:50 Exeter [/u] [b]Rocky Creek [/b] Is a full brother to Tell Massini (a very smart hurdler/chaser who sadly died in the Newbury race won by Aiteen Thirtythree last season) and won his only start in an Irish point back in February, beating Rolling Aces by four lengths, and the runner-up went on to win next time up - in fact we liked Rocky Creek's win so much we bought the first two home. Clearly, chasing will be his game but this trip over hurdles is a good introduction for him under Rules. We have decent hopes for him. [u]14:20 Exeter [/u] [b]Jump City [/b] A middle distance winner on the Flat in France in 2009, he had his problems before making his debut for us at Wincanton in February. To be honest, he hadn't been showing us that much before then but he certainly ran ...
