Ryedale Point to Point Racing Club

Dear All,

I am afraid that the Grimthorpe was just too quick on Ivan after Flagg, he was well up there till the cross fence 1/2 mile from home but when they have quickened he looked very one paced. He is better than this run having only been beaten 2 lengths by Ask Bobby 2 runs ago, and today it was nearer 40. Though he has seemed in good fettle at home adn showing all the right signs he has shown us before that he needs a longer gap in between races, he had a similar running at Corbridge last year after his two runs at the Brocklesby and Duncombe park.I am not sure what his next plan will be but he will certainly have 3 if not 4 weeks till his next run, most likely to be the Pendle.Suncliffe unshipped at the 8th fence, he is in the maiden at the Bedale next week and will run as long as he is ok. For those of you who met Michael today he is a grand bloke and we should have abit of fun with him and his horse until the end of the season. He deserves a change of luck and I hope us too.I will confrim about Sundcliffe nearer the time.
