BERKSHIRE NOVICES’ CHASE GRADE 2 – PREVIEW

Spiritofthegames is an excellent example of a horse with an inflated handicap mark. He is a 134 rated hurdler and yet has found himself with a mark of 148 as a chaser on the strength of an ultimately comfortable success in a race where...

SHLOER CHASE GRADE 2 ANTE-POST – REVIEW

According to his trainer “a tiny tweak on a suspensory ruled Sceau Royal out of the Arkle but he has not missed a day’s work since he came back and is in great form”. This is really good news as Sceau Royal is a...

HYDE NOVICES’ HURDLE GRADE 2 – PREVIEW

Nicky Henderson has mentioned previously that Pym was meant to be last season's star novice but just never came right. He made his hurdles and seasonal debut at Chepstow in the middle of October. On that day he rather reluctantly led all the way....

RISING STARS NOVICES’ CHASE GRADE 2 – PREVIEW
