  • WOODY WINS ON ALL-WEATHER DEBUT!

    DANCINGINTHEWOODS, aka “Woody” won on his all-weather debut yesterday at Kempton, making it his fourth career win. The 5yo son of Garswood, was having his second run after a wind op and just his fourth run under Amy Murphy.  It was also his first win over 7f, although he had shown plenty of form over… Read more »

  • WOODY MAKE ALL-WEATHER DEBUT!

    DANCINGINTHEWOODS makes his all-weather debut tomorrow at Kempton on his 25th career start. One of 13 runners in the opener, due off at 4.57pm, he steps back up to 7f and has Frederick Larson in the saddle in the 0-75 apprentice handicap.  This is also the first time he has run in a Class 5… Read more »

  • TWILIGHT BAY HAS IT ALL TO PROVE

    TWILIGHT BAY runs in the 7pm at Wolverhampton today, a 0-60 handicap over 7f and the 3yo daughter of Twilight Song has it all to prove. Rated 46, she works like a much better horse at home but has had problems with being in season almost constantly.  Having had a break, we hope today’s first… Read more »

  • SHARP DISTINCTION PRIMED FOR DECENT RUN

    SHARP DISTINCTION, who ran well when fourth at Sandown three weeks ago, should be ready to run a nice race today at Kempton (5.15pm) in the 13-runner 1m3f handicap for owners, Solario Racing (Berkhamsted). He has run well at the Sunbury track before when third and second as a 2yo and today’s trip of 1m3f… Read more »

  • AWTAAD PRINCE INTERESTING AT SOUTHWELL

    AWTAAD PRINCE is one of three runners for the stable today and is an interesting contender at Southwell in the 6.30, a 7f maiden. He ran well on his debut at Sandown nearly three weeks ago when sixth, beaten just 4 3/4 lengths behind a Godolphin debutante.  The 2yo son of Awtaad will undoubtedly have… Read more »

  • WOODY TAKING CHANCE ON THE GROUND

    DANCINGINTHEWOODS is going to run at Haydock today (3.15pm) despite ground conditions not being ideal. The going is offically Good to Soft (Good in Places) but there was no rain yesterday and today is forecast to be dry and sunny, so hopefully it will dry out come race time. The three-times winner has a lot… Read more »

  • EHRMANN INTERESTING RUNNER AT SOUTHWELL

    EHRMANN is an interesting runner for Amy tonight in a 5f handicap at Southwell (7.30pm) under little known jockey Dayverson De Barros. The 4yo is 4lbs below his second over course and distance and this is his second run since a wind operation.  At around 8/1, he’d be an each-way candidate.  So Grateful is chasing… Read more »

  • HOLLIE DOYLE INTERESTING BOOKING FOR TESTON

    TESTON is having just his second run for the stable today, when lining up in the 4.45 at Goodwood, a one mile one furlong handicap and Hollie Doyle is in the saddle. The five-times winning 7yo son of Rio De La Plata has had his problems and bled from the nose and suffered an irregular… Read more »

  • THREE INTERESTING RUNNERS AT LINGFIELD

    THE STABLE runs three at Lingfield today on the all-weather, Angel’s Whisper, George Morland and Chateau d’If.  All three look interesting, particularly the first two who were both last time out winners. Angel’s Whisper was impressive at Newmarket last time out and looks to have sound each-way chances at around 9/2 in the opener at… Read more »

  • MANHATTAN JUNGLE IN SEARCH OF MORE FRENCH GLORY
