Sounds unlikely I know, but he cannot be any worse than me. Anyway Nivver Bae has been entered at Cheltenham and Stratford next month and Ari has been saving up his chewsticks, he tried to interest DJ in the scheme with predictable results.
Ari is worried about Nivver Bae's fitness for the race, and as he has invested heavily ante-post he decided to take matters into his own paws. He nipped into the paddock barking furiously at the poor horse like some demented Duncan Norvelle (one for older readers there) until he was chased five or six times round by the understandably irate equine. Don't tell the up and coming for goodness sake.
Furrgal is making slow recovery from his injuries and is bravely limping around the yard. He has lost a bit of condition and so we have lashed out on Catfood Pouches to feed him up a bit. We put them in his bowl and he laps them up. The problem is that Sharkey has got wind of this and comes racing into the barn to get her share, it takes three of us to hold her back so that Furrgall can get his supply. Our other patient ,Kavi ,still has a scabby head but has returned to his normal morose self.
