Darren Edwards: Critical to the pointing brand *H&H Plus*

Two seasons ago, I just got touched off in a maiden in Devon by a horse called Noah And The Ark. It’s fair to say that, as we embrace a new season, most of us would welcome a little assistance from Noah and his ark to get up and running in this weather.

A total of 167 meetings are taking place over the next seven months and we already look set to have more soft ground than virtually the whole of last season.
