It threatens to be a relatively quiet week for the Top 40 Prospects in Ahead On The Flat. I thought it was therefore an appropriate time to work out the statistics in terms of runners to winners thus far. The season effectively started on the 1st June and there have been 19 winners from 55 runners, which is a strike-rate of 35%. A £10 level stake on each of the runners would have yielded a P...
Twenty four hours after Nazeef made it three wins from as many starts during 2020, another of the Top 40 Prospects in Ahead On The Flat, namely Patrick Sarsfield, did likewise with another impressive performance on Saturday. Joseph O'Brien's lightly raced four year old won valuable handicaps at Leopardstown and Navan off marks of 86 and 101 respectively last month. Tackling Pattern company for the...
It has been an excellent couple of days for the Top 40 Prospects in Ahead On The Flat. Following on from Al Aasy's impressive victory in the Group 3 Bahrain Trophy at Newmarket on Wednesday, Orbaan (25/1) produced a tremendous performance to win the concluding one mile handicap at York later the same afternoon. Bought out of Andre Fabre's yard last Autumn, the five year old looked in need of ...
Al Aasy has always been held in high regard by William Haggas and the striking son of Sea The Stars is beginning to live up his lofty reputation. A wide margin winner on the Rowley Mile last time, the Hamdan Al Maktoum owned colt made a seamless transition into Group company by taking the Bahrain Trophy on the first day of Newmarket's July meeting. Held up by Jim Crowley, he made his moved on the ...
Pondus was highlighted as a horse to follow on page 142 of Ahead On The Flat and was put forward as a possible Skybet Ebor contender. The former James Fanshawe trained four year old shaped well on his first start for Joseph O'Brien at Limerick last month and built on that performance at Roscommon on Tuesday. Contesting a twelve furlongs Listed event, the gelded son of Sea The Moon wasn't suited by...
It proved to be another memorable weekend at Epsom for Aidan O'Brien and the Coolmore team with Love producing a stunning display in the Investec Oaks and maiden winner Serpentine causing an upset in the Investec Derby later the same afternoon on Saturday.
Love, who had claimed the 1000 Guineas at Newmarket on her reappearance last month, proved a class apart from her rivals blitzing the fi...
The highlight of Doncaster's marathon card on Tuesday were the two divisions of the ten furlongs novice stakes. The first division went the way of the Ed Walker trained Matthew Flinders who confirmed the promise he had shown at Haydock on his racecourse bow earlier this month. His stable are in fine form ahead of English King's big day at Epsom on Saturday. The second division was won by another o...
The twice raced Lady Eleanor (25/1) ensured followers of Ahead On The Flat started the week in the best possible way by scoring on her seasonal reappearance at Yarmouth on Monday. From a family her trainer James Fanshawe knows particularly well, the daughter of Iffraaj is out of Firenze who won six times for the stable and is therefore related to the likes of Harry's Bar and Mazzini amongst others...
Aidan O'Brien dominated the Irish Derby at the Curragh on Saturday evening training the first four home. Victory went the way of the fast improving Santiago who had won the Queens Vase at Royal Ascot a little over a week earlier. However, it proved a frustrating affair as far as followers of Ahead On The Flat were concerned with Dawn Patrol finishing an unlucky third. The son of Galileo, who is a ...
I was disappointed by the performances of Abel Handy and Jaaneh at Doncaster on Friday with both horses looking in trouble some way from home. Thankfully, the horses featured in the Maidens In Waiting section of Ahead On The Flat enjoyed a much more productive day.
Evening Sun (8/11) shaped with plenty of promise in his two starts last year and confirmed that view with a convincing win on his rea...
