It's about a 4hr drive away. It sounds like everyone's fine at the moment - no damage, luckily!

Experts are saying the mountain should calm down now. Hope they're right! I have to drive right past it to get to the G1 Spring Classic at Hastings in October.

A small taste of what's to come at Hastings.

Ooh, and the undefeated P.ussy Willow resumes on the undercard! Potentially one of the best 3yos in the country.

Fleur De Lune wins! Amazing efforts by Fritzy Boy and Xanadu.

Shez Sinsational seemed to struggle in the wet ground, and the distance was way short of her best. She'll do better next time!

And a 3yo filly called Hollywood Angel was insanely impressive in the maiden race just after the Foxbridge.
