KEY NOTES – CHAMPION CHASE

Chacun Pour Soi 1st February 2020 – Leopardstown – He was simply too quick for Min as he took it up at the second last fence. He looked tired and was hanging on a bit in the finish and, although he has performed well...

KEY NOTES – ALBERT BARTLETT HURDLE

Latest Exhibition 1st February 2020 – Leopardstown – This surely booked his place in the Albert Bartlett as he was never better than from the final hurdle to the line. He gave a strong hint that another two furlongs would not go amiss; moreover...

KEY NOTE – CHAMPION HURDLE

Call Me Lord 1st February 2020 – Sandown – Maybe he has been disadvantaged by the slow early pace in each of his latest two races. Last time out he got away with it at Cheltenham whereas here he did not have the pace...

KEY NOTE – MARSH NOVICES’ CHASE (JLT)

Itchy Feet 1st February 2020 – Sandown – He has done really well on what was only his second try over fences; moreover he could not have learned much from his first chase which was a very weak three runner race where he never...

KEY NOTES – GOLD CUP

Santini 25th January 2020 – Cheltenham – He has battled very hard off a brutal gallop highlighted by his final circuit time comparisons with Simply The Betts and Cepage who were both competing over a much shorter trip. He was around three seconds quicker...

KEY NOTE – STAYERS HURDLE

Paisley Park 25th January 2020 – Cheltenham – I imagine many will crab the relatively narrow margin of his success particularly over the 140 rated third horse to finish Lisnagar Oscar. I strongly suspect, however, that the slow pace enabled the second and third...

KEY NOTE – ARKLE CHASE

Al Dancer 25th January 2020 – Doncaster – I suspect this was an improved effort due to competing on this better surface. He came there cantering at the third last fence and presumably traded long odds on at this point. He put in a...

KEY NOTE – MARSH NOVICES’ CHASE (JLT)

Mister Fisher 25th January 2020 – Doncaster – This could well turn out to be a very good race indeed. He was briefly outpaced at the third last but soon made up his ground once switched to the outside. He stole a two length...

KEY NOTE – ALBERT BARTLETT HURDLE

Monkfish 19th January 2020 – Thurles– He was left clear with the fall of Run Wild Fred at the second last hurdle. He was going best at the time but it was a long way from home to making any hard and fast conclusions....

KEY NOTE – RSA CHASE

Minella Indo 18th January 2020 – Navan – He has been promoted to around 5/1 second favourite for the RSA after this first success on his second try over fences. His place in the market has clearly been dictated by his two wins at...
