Rangitoto can get me back among the winners

THERE was no fairytale return for me at Newbury yesterday when Don’t Turn Bach finished well behind in a handicap hurdle.

I was, however, thrilled to leave many months of agony behind and suffered no ill-effects. I was delighted with the way I felt through the race and afterwards and am just raring for more of the same now.

Overall, it has been a productive enough week. On Monday and Tuesday I was at Paul Nicholls’ and then on Wednesday made my way down to Cork.
