JOHN FRANCOME NOVICES’ CHASE GRADE 2 – REVIEW

Danny Whizzbang 30th November 2019 – Newbury – His trainer implied he would badly need this run prior to the race. This may still be the case as the other two may not have performed to their best. He did jump by far the...

LONG DISTANCE HURDLE GRADE 2 – REVIEW

Paisley Park 29th November 2019 – Newbury – I doubt this told us very much at all. He has run out a narrow but convincing winner and will no doubt come on for the run before the Long Walk Hurdle at Ascot over Xmas....

BERKSHIRE NOVICES’ CHASE GRADE 2 – REVIEW

Champ 29th November 2019 – Newbury – An awful lot has gone wrong for him here and he has still run out a convincing winner against two talented rivals. He has enhanced his reputation here and, at the same time, has performed in such...

FINAL NOTES FOR NEWBURY ON FRIDAY 29th NOVEMBER 2019

2.25 Berkshire Novices’ Chase Grade 2 Perhaps the most interesting aspect of this race could be the fight for the lead between Black Op and Dashel Drasher. The presence of the former has taken away my interest in trading the Jeremy Scott horse. He...

1.50 NEWBURY ON FRIDAY 29th NOVEMBER 2019

1.50 Handicap Chase A few worthy contenders in what is a very competitive renewal. Either of the two Henderson horses could go well at a price; they are both horses to nibble at when trading big and tend away from when short in the...

NOTES FOR NEWBURY ON FRIDAY 29th NOVEMBER 2019

A FEW NOTES TO COMPARE WITH YOUR OWN THOUGHTS 12.15 Maiden Hurdle A tricky opener with plenty of depth – this might turn out to be a very hot race for future reference. The times of this first hurdle race and the opening chase...

KEY NOTE – JLT CHASE

Laurina 23rd November 2019 – Gowran Park – She has enjoyed a really positive trip round helped in no small way by her pace maker. She was a little slower than Getabird in the first half of her race but was three seconds clear...

KEY NOTE – RYANAIR CHASE

Frodon 23rd November 2019 – Haydock – He was left behind by the two principals from after the second last fence. Maybe this highlights how good the pair of them are, maybe he ran below form or, perhaps, most likely he does not quite...
