Novices' Handicap Chase 2m61/2f RUK RUK Reserviupseerikoulu (Hamina, Finland, Reserve Officers' School) RUK Are You Kidding? Card page 28 Key stat Henry Daly (Ordre De Bataille) has won the race twice from three runners in the last seven seasons What they say Henry Daly, trainer of Ordre De Bataille "Two miles six will suit him. He should run well, and the ground should suit him too." Nick Gifford, trainer of By George "He's in very good form. Touch wood, his jumping is getting better with more experience. He's running off a 5lb lower mark, so we're looking to take advantage of that." Venetia Williams, trainer of Pipo De Re "He ran well on Sunday and I suspect he'll end up with a few more pounds on his back, so we're hoping we can pick up something before that happens and before the ground dries out." Philip Hobbs, trainer of Faneuil Hall "He's schooled well and chasing was always going to be his game." Henrietta Knight, trainer of South Bank "The horse is well and has had a break. He's better when the ground is drying out and he's got a reasonable weight." Richard Rowe, trainer of Uncle Eli "He's in good form and schooled well on Monday morning. He has always shown promise." 4.45 Doncaster The Sands Cabaret Club Mares' Handicap Hurdle 2m1/2f ATR ATR Achilles tendon reflex, see Ankle reflex Card page 57 Key stat Fairyland has finished a beaten favourite on all four starts over hurdles What they say Malcolm Jefferson, trainer of Overbranch "She just lost her confidence over fences, so we're giving hurdles a whirl. She's in good form and won four last year, and when she's right she's a good filly." Keith Reveley, trainer of Heavenly Chorus "She probably ran too quickly after winning a conditional jockeys' race the week before." Rebecca Curtis, trainer of Moonlight Music "She won well last time but she's unfairly gone up 19lb. That's a massive jump, and I don't think the ground will be in her favour either." Garry Whillans, rider of Well Disguised "She's still in good form and is working well enough at home, and the drying ground won't be against her." Chris Thornton, trainer of Smarties Party "She ran really well at Cheltenham last time, and didn't have the best luck in running. She hasn't run since because she doesn't like the ground soft. She's really well and we're hopeful of a big run." Ferdy Murphy, trainer of I'm Delilah "She's a nice little mare and she'll run well, and is better going left-handed. The ground, track and trip will suit her." 8.20 Wolverhampton Wolverhampton-racecourse.co.uk Handicap 6f ATR Card page 76 Key stat Bryan Smart (Soopacal) has a 67% strike-rate in 3yo+ handicaps at the track this season What they say Paul Howling, trainer of Ebraam and Dvinsky "Dvinsky is suffering for his wins and consistency from the handicapper hand·i·cap·per n. Sports & Games 1. One who assigns handicaps. 2. One who predicts the winners in a horserace, especially one who publishes such predictions as a guide for bettors. Noun 1. , but remains in very good form. Ebraam was a little bit unlucky last time." Ron Hodges "He's in good form and his form behind Matsunosuke is good." Milton Bradley  This article or section is written like a personal reflection or and may require .Please [ improve this article] by rewriting this article or section in an . , trainer of The Tatling "He's won over six before but the straight course at Southwell suits him a little better. He's really well and will go well if he handles the turns." Roy Bowring, trainer of Xpres Maite "He's in good form but it's just the wide draw that might be against him." Joe O'Gorman, assistant to Kevin Ryan Kevin Ryan may refer to:
"He's in the form of his life and he still has the ability to cope with this grade." Bryan Smart, trainer of Soopacal "He's in good order and has a first-time visor on." 8.40 Dundalk Dundalk On-Course Bookmakers Race 1m4f ATR Card page 48 Key stat Michael O'Brien Michael or Mike O'Brien may refer to:
What they say Michael O'Brien, trainer of Green Tobasco "He should run a very good race. We've freshened him up and he's in very good form. It looks a tough enough race, but he's shown that he likes the place and has won there a few times." Mervyn Torrens, trainer of Major Key "He won on the all-weather in France and Germany before we got him. He's had a couple of runs over hurdles, but we need to find out about him on the Flat." Dermot Weld, trainer of Prince Erik "He had a run over hurdles at Christmas and is fit and well. He won over the trip on his only previous run at Dundalk." John Queally, trainer of Al Eile "He's been back in work since Christmas and has done plenty. He has run well fresh in the past, and the surface won't be a problem as he ran well in the race last year and would have finished closer than seventh with a clearer passage. He's capable of a big run." Charlie Swan Charlie Swan (born January 20 1968)[1] was a former top National Hunt jockey in Ireland in the 1990s. He will always be associated with the great Istabraq, on whom he won 3 Champion Hurdles. , trainer of Valain "He's in the Grand Annual at Cheltenham and we're hoping he makes the cut for it. He's fit and well and, while he hasn't run on the Flat for a long time, he'll like the slow surface and should run a good race." CAPTION(S): John Queally: expects good show from Al Eile |
