ORLANDO works well


It was great to see him back on a track, looking very much his old self, though clearly some weeks off fitness to race. He will continue to go to tracks in order to give relief from boring unaccompanied straightline work in the forest - probably to Craon next Sunday, where Prince des Baux will run again. Prince was a good fifth today after having difficulty getting clear - Marion received a warning for his efforts to get out; last week with same horse, for the same thing the commissaires at Aix les Bain gave hime 4 days suspension last week. (He serves them 26-29th.) C'est la vie...
