RSA CHASE – KEY NOTE

Santini 26th December 2018 – Kempton – He has been made to look quite one paced here and not for the first time. He was left behind by the front two from the beginning of the turn into the home straight but was closing...

BALLYMORE HURDLE – KEY NOTE

SUPREME HURDLE – KEY NOTE

Mister Fisher 26th December 2018 – Kempton – This was a slowly run race compared with the one won by Verdana Blue. No surprise there with Global Citizen racing freely in front for most of the Christmas Hurdle. This one did match his stable...

RSA CHASE – KEY NOTE

CHAMPION CHASE – KEY NOTE
