STAYERS HURDLE – KEY NOTE

Sam Spinner 23rd December 2017 – Ascot – There was certainly no fluke about this all the way success and the only real question, with regards to March, is whether or not he can be as effective on a quicker surface. The other salient...

TRIUMPH HURDLE – KEY NOTE

NEPTUNE HURDLE – KEY NOTE

On The Blind Side 8th December 2017 – Sandown – It would be hard not to be impressed by this performance. He travelled like a much better horse today and vindicated his trainer’s view that he would improve with each run. This was certainly...

KIM MUIR – KEY NOTE

Mall Dini                   3rd December 2017 – Fairyhouse – Same owner and trainer as the gambled on winner. I rather suspect he will be busier on another day. He has a poor win to run ratio but has performed well at each of the last...
