Pointingea

Here are the results for the Thurlow meeting at Horseheath. The going was good, good to soft in places although judging by the times, soft all round would be a better description. Weather, light showers for the first three races then brightened up by the time of the final race. Very mild for the time of year. Quite a reasonable sized crowd given the early wet weather.
