    • Totally. Good system I think but if it were me, I'd be giving the relaid 50mm turf at least the winter and spring for root development for it to bind with and secure the underlying soil.
    • The difference is they say they used "soil" not sand and they relaid existing turf that was 50mm in depth already.  So the grass had a head start rather than being sown as seed directly or as new turf laid.
    • Multiple group winner Sevenna's Knight (Camelot) topped the inaugural AKTEM February Online Sale when selling for €305,000 to the Sevenna's Knight Syndicate. Consigned by trainer Andre Fabre as lot 3B, the six-year-old entire won the G2 Prix Vicomtesse Vigier as well as two other group stakes. He also placed in the 2024/2025 editions of the Prix Royal-Oak and was runner-up in last year's Vicomtesse Vigier after it was promoted to Group 1 level. Guy Petit struck for Grade 2-winning jumper Amour Du Mathan (Saint Des Saints) (lot 9), shelling out €212,000. Consigned by Haras des Marronniers, the mare is in foal to Walk In The Park. Gabriel Leenders consigned Lyssenko (Cokoriko) (lot 5) to the sale, and he went to Andy Bell for €210,000. A three-time winner over obstacles, the five-year-old is from the family of AQPS Grade 2 winner Vaniteux (Voic Du Nord). Also breaking the six-figure mark was a stallion share in undefeated G1 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe hero Ace Impact which sold to Barry Lynch for €155,000. Haras de la Croix Sonnet picked up Dolcita Du Berlais (Poliglote) (lot 13B) in foal to Goliath Du Berlais, for €150,000. Overall, 22 horses sold from 35 offered (63%) for a gross of €1,381,000. The average was €69,050 and the median was €29,500. For the full results, please visit the AKTEM website.

    • Oh dear. They've done great work there and seemingly well on budget, but are they rushing back yet again?
    • According to a post on FanDuel TV's X account, FanDuel has “parted ways” with long-time on-air host Todd Schrupp. “We're grateful for Todd's contributions to the network,” the tweet read. “He played an important role in helping grow our on-air presence and connecting with viewers. We thank him for his work and dedication and wish him all the best in his future endeavors.” FanDuel did not provide a reason why Schrupp would no longer be working for the network, Schrupp was there at the beginning, starting with what was then TVG when it was launched in 1999 and, for the next 26 years, was among the most visible talents on the network that would later be renamed FanDuel TV. He was often used to anchor coverage of some of the sport's major events, like the GI Kentucky Derby and the Breeders' Cup. “It's the end of an era. I grew up watching Todd on TVG; it won't be the same without him.,” one X account holder tweeted. Before joining TVG, Schrupp worked in the marketing and customer relations departments at Canterbury Park and served as an in-house handicapper at Calder Race Course.
