The loss of a friend


Everyone who reads this blog will know that I love and adore Sushi, the horse I have raced for Tim Reed for the last few seasons in point to points: sadly on Saturday he had a training accident, broke his front leg badly and had to be put down. We are all devastated. It was noone's fault - it was just an accident.
Aside from the fact that we raced together at Cheltenham, Kempton, Hexham and beyond I owe him a huge debt of gratitude as he and I won the local point to point together last year in tough circumstances.
Sushi was a gentleman and a wonderful character. We will all miss him a lot
