Unfortunately after 30mm of rain fell overnight at Nottingham, we had no choice but to make Sycamore a non-runner on Tuesday, but then as it transpired, the entire meeting was called off anyway. 

It was frustrating but this is a very strange summer, with rainfall all over the place, and so we’re all in the same situation. The good news is he’s fit and ready to go, so as soon as we get some drier ground, we can go again.

We’re looking at options at Doncaster on Thursday 25th July, or back to Nottingham on Thursday 1st August, so we’ll keep you all posted.
