Bintabuha heads to Newbury to run in the ‘West Court Retreat Supports Heros Charity Handicap’ for owners Salhia Stud Limited. She made her 4 year old debut at Yarmouth on the 11th April in which she finished a very promising 5th. At the end of the race it became apparent that she had pulled a shoe at some stage in the race and also took quite a bit of hoof with it, looking back she ran a fantastic race given what had happened. After an easy week and some time in the paddock she was back to normal routine and is in good form. Today she continues over 1 mile 2 furlongs in a field of 9 runners. She has been drawn 7 with Lewis Edmunds taking the ride. 

Magical Merlin travels to Windsor to run in the ‘Skyline Roofing Centers Handicap’ making it his first time over 1 mile 2 furlongs. Having ran previously over 6, 7 and 8 furlongs on his most recent starts he has started to look as though he may want further which is why he has stepped up by 2 furlongs today. The race has a field of 10 runners and he has been drawn 9. Millie Wonnacott takes the ride as well as claims 5lbs off.
