Jim’s record at Ayr is second to none and he keeps sending out the winners at the track and at our last meeting on May 30 he saddled a treble with Cosa Sara, Grand Canal and Yaaser. He has some interesting runners this afternoon including Rory in the opening five furlong handicap and Annandale in the Weddings At Western House Hotel Handicap for the Winton Cup.

Having ridden more than 100 winners here at Ayr it’s safe to say Paul knows the course well and he comes here this afternoon with several interesting rides including on Jim Goldie’s Annandale in the Weddings At Western House Hotel Handicap for the Winton Cup. Having recently turned freelance after a long association with Richard Fahey he will be riding for a variety of trainers.
