Plus 7 and damp when driving in.

Chepstow..Well what a win from Destroytheevidence..

He was never a very easy ride last season when hurdling as they probably went one stride too quick for him, but yesterday he bounced out of the gate happy, ready and the slower pace helped him.

Jumping well, Tom Bellamy was able to bide his time.. Always in a good rhythm he came to take it up at the last.. Some will say that they might have been a tad lucky when the second horse made a mistake at the last, but I like to think DTE had enough up his sleeve... A very pleasing first run over fences in a race that Chianti Classico won last year..

Perhaps you might guess why he is named what he is..??..Of course.. after that win and on a Saturday morning after a night celebrating what do you do?.. Destroytheevidence!

Well done to Phil and Gill Andrews who are big supporters of Thorndale..

Tom Bellamy and Johnny Burke were in to ride out..

Tina and Austen Rowley and Ruth and Tony Fitzsimons were here for a Morning on the gallops followed by Breakfast.

Gary and Tracy Betley were here second lot to see their KBRS horse Phantom Getaway perform up the gallops.. Also here was Joe Goldring to see his KBRS horse Parc d’Amour.

Into sailing? America's Cup.. A huge week ahead for Team GB.. Something we have never won..

We have no runners over the weekend

There were two nuns from Keith Ellis..

One of them was known as Sister Mathematical (SM),

and the other one was known as Sister Logical (SL).

It is getting dark and they are still far away from the convent.

SM: Have you noticed that a man has been following us for the past thirty-eight and a half minutes? I wonder what he wants.

SL: It's logical. He wants to make love to us.

SM: Oh, no! At this rate he will reach us in 15 minutes at the most! What can we do?

SL: The only logical thing to do of course is to walk faster.

A little while later...

SM: It's not working.

SL: Of course it's not working. The man did the only logical thing. He started to walk faster, too.

SM: So, what shall we do? At this rate he will reach us in one minute.

SL: The only logical thing we can do is split. You go that way and I'll go this way. He cannot follow us both.

So the man decided to follow Sister Logical.

Sister Mathematical arrives at the convent and is worried about what has happened to Sister Logical.

Then Sister Logical arrives.

SM: Sister Logical! Thank God you are here! Tell me what happened!

SL: The only logical thing happened. The man couldn't follow us both, so he followed me

SM: Yes, yes! But what happened then?

SL: The only logical thing happened. I started to run as fast as I could and he started to run as fast as he could.

SM: And?

SL : The only logical thing happened. He reached me.

SM : Oh, dear! What did you do?

SL : The only logical thing to do. I lifted my dress up.

SM : Oh, Sister! What did the man do?

SL: The only logical thing to do. He pulled down his pants.

SM: Oh, no! What happened then?

SL : Isn't it logical, Sister? A nun with her dress up can run faster than a man with his pants down.

And for those of you who thought it would be dirty, say two Hail Mary's!

On that note have a great weekend and see you on Monday..
