Conditions stacked in Mourad’s favour

INSTEAD of teaming up with the likes of Big Buck’s, Pepe Simo and Big Fella Thanks at Ascot today, I will be spending the afternoon at home.

I think it would be no exaggeration to describe yesterday as rather eventful. I was supposed to ride at Ascot and still flew to Heathrow, even though I knew the meeting was off.

My thinking was that I had a lot of important rides on Saturday and didn’t want to be stuck at this side of the pond.
