LEAMINGTON NOVICES’ HURDLE GRADE 2 – REVIEW

Mr Whipped 13th January 2018 – Warwick– He will need to be more fluent over his hurdles if he is to compete in a fast run race at the festival. This was a relative dawdle round and he was still clumsy over a few...

MOSCOW FLYER NOVICE HURDLE GRADE 2 – REVIEW

Getabird 13th January 2018 – Punchestown – He was super impressive as he drew away from a horse with a big reputation. His speed figure was right up there with those of Min, Vautour and Douvan in this race in previous years. The fact...

TOLWORTH NOVICES’ HURDLE GRADE 1 – REVIEW

Summerville Boy 6th January 2017 – Sandown – His jockey and trainer both said he hated the heavy ground and will do better on a sound surface. He was left behind last time but was not suited to the slow gallop. He made a...

FINALE JUVENILE HURDLE GRADE 1 – REVIEW

We Have A Dream 6th January 2017 – Chepstow – The winner of this race rarely goes onto succeed in the Triumph. Last season was an exception but one can understand the general trend given that this grade one is usually competed for on...

RELKEEL HURDLE GRADE 2 – REVIEW

Wholestone 1st January 2018 – Cheltenham – He travelled better than he has previously this season here. It would be easy to conclude that this was the Cheltenham factor in his profile. Maybe just as likely he was not suited to the more sustained...

DIPPER NOVICES’ CHASE GRADE 2 – REVIEW

Yanworth 1st January 2018 – Cheltenham – He is yet to convince as a top class chaser despite this grade two success. He made several errors and was also very slow in the air at one or two others. I would not want to...

BALLYMORE NOVICES’ HURDLE LISTED – REVIEW

Tikkanbar 1st January 2018 – Cheltenham – An awful lot went wrong for him here yet he still won with real authority. He failed to jump more hurdles than he was fluent over and was still travelling over his rivals on the run to...

CHALLOW NOVICES’ HURDLE GRADE 1 – REVIEW

Poetic Rhythm 30th December 2017 – Newbury – This was a real staying performance from a very tough and honest horse. He does not look quick enough for the Ballymore given how he was outpaced even on this testing surface. He is yet to...

RYANAIR HURDLE GRADE 1 – REVIEW

Faugheen 29th December 2017 – Leopardstown – He went backwards from three out and was pulled up before the next. The good thing is that they have some time before the festival. If this had happened at the Leopardstown Festival then the game would...

NEVILLE HOTELS NOVICE CHASE GRADE 1 – REVIEW

Monalee 29th December 2017 – Leopardstown – He fell at the tenth fence when still going very well. He had left his hind legs in a couple of fences but had jumped most especially well up to the point of his departure. He remains...
