Samcro 26th November 2017 – Navan – He travelled and jumped well before surging clear in super impressive style. He posted a very fast time and it was difficult to find something not to like about this performance. He probably sets a high bar...

ARKLE CHASE – KEY NOTE

Brain Power 26th November 2017 – Kempton – This was extremely pleasing to the eye even though the pounds and lengths add up to very little. The issue with him is whether or not he will find off the bridle when asked for an...

RYANAIR CHASE – KEY NOTE

Min 25th November 2017 – Gowran Park – It was interesting to see Min’s season begin over this intermediate trip. His owner has an abundance of high class horses at his disposal and with Douvan set for the Champion Chase then we may well...

CHAMPION CHASE – KEY NOTE

ARKLE CHASE – KEY NOTE

North Hill Harvey 19th November 2017 – Cheltenham – This was an authoritative display of jumping. He was quick and sharp over his fences and came clear with plenty to spare in an impressive looking fashion. On the flip side he had a decent...

GOLD CUP – KEY NOTE

Thistlecrack 21st February 2017 – Cheltenham withdrawal -  For future reference, my notes prior to the bad news. Thistlecrack lost his unbeaten record over fences when going down narrowly to the ill-fated Many Clouds in the Grade Two Cotwold Chase at Cheltenham in late...
