There were some stunning mornings out on the heath
Our interview of the month was with Colin Bolger. "Colin has been riding our few hurdlers for a couple of seasons now," said Mark. "He is a jockey with plenty of potential and he's like most jockeys, just wants that real good one to come along. I have full confidence in him whenever he is riding for us and I am sure he will go on to be a top-class pilot. He's also a very nice lad, like most of the jump jockeys; he works hard and is very conscientious."
