Top 40 entry Sea of Faith (3/1) may not have quite lived up to early season expectations but she has developed into a useful middle distance three year old filly nevertheless. The daughter of Sea The Stars caught the eye of virtually every racegoer who saw her debut run at Sandown in April but failed to build on it next time at Newbury in Listed company. An easy winner at Doncaster in June, she wa...
As discussed, I am currently working on the York Ebor Update and leading trainer William Haggas kindly sent me a list of his runners over the four days next week - there are certainly some very interesting ones, especially in the handicaps. Don't forget, if you haven't already ordered a copy of the Update, please head to the Publications section of the site. It is £6.00
Talking of Updates, ...
Last week was a busy one with trips to Carlisle, Pontefract, Thirsk and Haydock. Not for the first time this year, the weather did its best to spoil things at the last named track on Saturday but it was still an enjoyable day with William Haggas landing both feature events courtesy of Miss O'Connor in the Listed Dick Hern Stakes and Addeybb in the Group 3 Rose of Lancaster Stakes. Both horses reve...
I have had a busy week working for Racing TV at Carlisle on Monday, Pontefract on Wednesday and I am due to be at Thirsk on Friday and Haydock on Saturday. I have continued to work on One Jump Ahead, too, and next week I will be concentrating on the York Ebor Festival Update. If you haven't ordered a copy of the Update, which is priced at £6.00, please go to the Publications section of the s...
While all eyes were on the final day of Glorious Goodwood, Ahead On The Flat had a productive day at Doncaster. John Gosden's First In Line, who is featured in the Unraced Three Year Olds section of AOTF, made it two wins from three starts in the ten furlongs novice stakes. A winner at Lingfield last time, he made all the running under his penalty winning by six lengths. He is a progressive type a...
I was lucky enough to interview multiple champion National Hunt trainer Paul Nicholls on Friday afternoon for One Jump Ahead. The Ditcheat based handler enjoyed a magnificent campaign in 2018/2019 and, following heavy recruitment during the spring/summer on top of an already formidable team of horses, Paul has an awful lot to look forward to. His new purchases are largely from ...
The highlight on the third day of Glorious Goodwood was the Group 1 Nassau Stakes and the ten furlongs event went the way of the Japanese trained Deirdre. The five year old had got bogged down in the testing ground in the Prince of Wales's Stakes at Royal Ascot in June but was much more at home under these conditions under Oisin Murphy. A length and a quarter winner, one can't help feeling th...
I have a few more interviews lined up later this week for the forthcoming edition of One Jump Ahead - I will keep subscribers informed on here. I spoke to Cheltenham Gold Cup and Grand National winning trainer Kim Bailey on Tuesday. The Gloucestershire based handler sent out 51 winners last winter, including four Grade 2 winners. Having spent heavily on youngsters - both stores and proven horses -...
Regular Diary readers will be aware that I suggested Regal Mirage was a winner waiting to happen following his eyecatching run at Haydock last time. Tim Easterby's mount had stayed on strongly at the Merseyside track and confirmed the view with a length win at Pontefract on Sunday. The Aqlaam gelding had dropped to a two pounds lower mark compared to his last win and was a previous winner at ...
Aidan O'Brien won the Group 3 Tyros Stakes at Leopardstown for the thirteenth time on Thursday evening with the exciting Armory. The head of Ballydoyle has won the seven furlongs event with the likes of King of Kings, Rip Van Winkle, Zoffany, Gleneagles, Churchill and Anthony Van Dyke and this son of Galileo looks out of the top drawer, too. Featured in the Ballydoyle Juveniles section of Ahead On...
