SATURDAY, 12 JUNE 2021 SERPENTINE SUPPLEMENTED TO GOLD CUP LORD GRIMTHORPE: Last year=s G1 Derby winner Serpentine (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) has WITNESSING GREATNESS been supplemented at a cost of ,30,000 to next week=s G1 Gold Cup at Royal Ascot. FROM WITHIN Serpentine has been beaten in three starts since his 25-1 upset in the blue riband last July, including a last-out seventh in the G1 Tattersalls Gold Cup at The Curragh on May 23, and he goes a full mile further in the Gold Cup than he has gone in his seven- race career to date. Serpentine=s trainer Aidan O=Brien also has last year=s Derby third Amhrann Na Bhfiann (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) and last year=s G1 Irish Derby and G2 Queen=s Vase winner Santiago (Ire) (Authorized {Ire}) engaged in the Gold Cup, and chief among their rivals will be Stradivarius (Ire) (Sea The Stars {Ire}), who looks to become just the second four-time Gold Cup winner, joining the Aidan O=Brien-trained Yeats (Ire) (Sadler=s Wells); and Subjectivist (GB) (Teofilo {Ire}), the winner of his last two starts including the G2 Dubai Gold Cup on Mar. 27. Trainer John Gosden issued an update on the 7-year-old Stradivarius on Thursday, saying, AThis boy is very vociferous and an absolute riot to be around. He has always been very entertaining and has a great personality.@ Cont. p6 Click for a video interview with Lord Grimthorpe on his tenure as Juddmonte Racing Manager | Tattersalls By Emma Berry Following a year in the racing world when all has changed, if not utterly, then significantly, a further adjustment to the norm is brought about by the departure of Lord Grimthorpe as Juddmonte's racing manager. -
Agenda Item 6.I Cheltenham Spa Railway Station
Agenda Item 6 GFirst Local Enterprise Partnership Board Paper – 11th Sept 2018 Agenda Item Cheltenham Spa Railway Station – Change Request (Title) Paper Author & Neil Hopwood, contact details [email protected] 07765 863807 Supporting Papers Original Board Paper, submitted 12th Dec 2017 Assessment Report v3 (final), dated 14-11-17 General Arrangement Drawing for forecourt & car park area Confidentiality Public Purpose 1. To inform the Board of proposed changes relative to the originally approved scheme. 2. To request a decision from the board to select one of 2 proposed options. Summary Background In Dec 2017 the board approved £1.497m of Local Growth funds to support an improvement project at Cheltenham Spa Railway Station. To date we have been unable to finalise a funding agreement with GWR due to challenges with agreeing certain terms (in relation to the unique way that assets are ‘owned’ under the franchise arrangements and a lack of sufficient detail until recently on the detail of the scheme and associated costs). The scheme in total was presented as 4 main elements funded from a number of sources - improvements to the station forecourt to improve pedestrian safety and vehicle movements and enhance the public realm an increase of at least 70 car parking spaces by the installation of a single decked car-park DDA compliant lifts to both platforms to provide full accessibility to the station Enhanced provision for cyclist users of the station, including a minimum of 300 secure cycle storage spaces and a shared cycle/pedestrian access ramp from Landsdown Road into the station Page 1 of 3 Agenda Item 6 The enhanced cyclist user provision was to be funded from a funding award of £833k from the DfT Cycle Rail fund which GWR had bid for and won in order to enhance the total scheme. -

Bulletin Book Extracts
Bulletin Book Extracts Continuity with the Dark Horses Annual … In my Dark Horses Guide I made out a case for Nichols Canyon, now the winner of seven of his 10 starts over hurdles. A genuine and classy performer for John Gosden on the Flat, with two Listed victories and a Group 3 placing to his name, he landed four Grade 1 races as a novice last season without getting the credit he deserved. This season he became the first horse to beat Faugheen, where the close proximity of Wicklow Brave in third suggests the favourite underperformed, before winning his sixth Grade 1 race when beating Identity Thief in the Ryanair Hurdle at Leopardstown over Christmas. Nichols Canyon ran the worst race of his career just under a month later when he trailed home 28 lengths third to Faugheen and Arctic Fire in the Irish Champion Hurdle, possibly feeling the effects of his tussle with Identity Thief in the heavy ground. Nichols Canyon’s greatest asset is his tenacity. He is not the sort of horse ever to win on the bridle, but he handles any ground and has strong winning form over two and a half miles – always an asset in the Champion Hurdle. Willie Mullins says the horse reminds him of Hurricane Fly – a great compliment - and there is a case for saying he has the best overall form in the race, even though the ratings suggest otherwise. Strong Opinions … I have no doubt that My Tent Or Yours is one of the most talented horses Nicky Henderson has ever trained.
