Presvis wins at Meydan
Jan 27th
Having had the door slammed in his face more times than an over-zealous Jehovah Witness, Presvis burst through in style at Meydan. The seven-year-old has had only nine of his 21 starts for Luca Cumani in Britain over the past three years but has proved a real money spinner abroad, where his globe-trotting career has [...]
Snow Fairy wins Hong Kong Cup
Dec 12th
Ryan Moore has said that it is the big winners that count the most. He said it again in Hong Kong on Wednesday, when he won the international jockeys’ championship at Happy Valley, and he finished what has been a memorable season when Snow Fairy won the Group One Hong Kong Cup at Sha Tin. [...]
Snow Fairy wins Queen Elizabeth II Commemorative Cup
Nov 14th
Snow Fairy joined the international jet set when she won the Group One Queen Elizabeth II Commemorative Cup at Kyoto in Japan. Going into the race her trainer, Ed Dunlop, admitted that there was an element of a roll of the dice in bringing his filly halfway across the world for a race six months [...]
Aidan O’Brien’s new stable jockey?
Nov 10th
It is one of the hottest tickets in town, but just do not bank on it lasting that long. For all his quiet demeanour, Aidan O’Brien seems to have a habit of losing stable jockeys and is looking for his fourth in six years after Johnny Murtagh handed in his notice. Given that the yard, [...]
Paul Hanagan draws five clear of Richard Hughes
Nov 2nd
For a prize that carries no intrinsic value, Richard Hughes appears ready to put a very high price on this season’s Flat jockeys’ championship. Paul Hanagan finished the day with a lead of five winners over Hughes, after riding a double at Wolverhampton. That would have appeared to clinch the deal for Hanagan, with Hughes [...]
Kingsfort wins Ben Marshall Stakes
Oct 30th
Deep pockets and even deeper reserves of patience are a good idea for owners. Sheikh Mohammed is known for having the fiscal power but that has never made him immune the setbacks that come as part-and-parcel of racing. Having written a cheque with a fair amount zeros for Kingsfort, after he won last year’s Group [...]
Frankel wins Dewhurst Stakes
Oct 17th
Did it settle all the arguments? Certainly, for the present at least. The Group One Dubai Dewhurst Stakes was billed as many things, although “the greatest two-year-old race ever?” – as it was described on the front page of the Racing Post – may have owed more to hype than historical perspective. But at least [...]
Audacious attempt at Nottingham for The Queen
Oct 6th
We haven’t been doing too badly here at Bettor.com with our tipping lately so hopefully we can find a few more winners from the card at Nottingham today. The Nottingham European Breeders’ Fund Maiden Stakes 1m (division 2) should provide The Queen with a winner as Audacious provides strong claims. http://blogs.bettor.com/Audacious-attempt-at-Nottingham-for-The-Queen-a32087
Workforce wins Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe
Oct 3rd
After nearly 30 years of trying, Sir Michael Stoute finally claimed the prize that he had come so close to before when Workforce won the Group One Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe at Longchamp. A field of 19 meant that it was likely to be a rough race and Ryan Moore was in the mid-division, [...]
Hooray wins Cheveley Park Stakes
Oct 1st
Sir Mark Prescott seemed to be unsure whether Hooray would act in the rain-softened ground in the Group One Adnams Cheveley Park Stakes at Newmarket. But from a furlong out she was a certainty – no shouting needed – as she routed her field in impressive style. The filly had been a revelation when she [...]
