Today's Stat of the Day
| Date | Stat |
|---|---|
| 20th June 2013 | John Gosden is the only one of the major trainers to show a level stake profit with his runners at Ascot (up £10.53 at SP from backing all 381 lifetime runners here). He has trained 54 winners and earnt over £5m in prize money during this time, and his "in the frame" strike rate of 39% is exceptional given the fiercely competitive nature of the racing. In the Tercentary Stakes at 5.00 he runs the very progressive Remote, who looked a star of the future when sluicing home in a Doncaster handicap last time out, and is all the rage in the early exchanges to follow-up. |
| 19th June 2013 | Richard Hughes endured a frustrating day yesterday at Royal Ascot, but his career record shows him to be at the top of the jockeys table. He has ridden 72 winners here from 623 attempts, earning £3.7m in prize money for connections and can boast an "in the frame" strike rate of 42%. In the Queen Mary at 5.00 this afternoon, he has critically chosen Oriel over her stablemates, and this promising filly looks sure to go very close after enduring an expensive and unlucky defeat at Newbury last time out. |
| 18th June 2013 | Mark Johnston tops the trainers table at Ascot, with 82 lifetime winners here from 630 runners, earning £3.2m in prize money and boasting a very resepectable "in the frame" strike rate of 32%. In the Coventry at 4.25 he runs the impressive Goodwood winner Lanark, who looks overpriced at around 33-1 this morning, especially if the usual blistering early pace collapses in the closing stages and his proven stamina kicks in. |
| 13th June 2013 | Saeed Bin Suroor has been in superb form in the past fortnight, with a number of highly regarded newcomers winning impressively, and he has a fantastic record when sending horses north to Nottingham. He has trained 49 winners from just 139 runners here, boasting an "in the frame" strike rate of 60% and showing a level stake profit of £29.45 at SP. In the opener at 2.00 this afternoon, he introduces a costly son of Acclamation in Chord Chart, who has attracted warm early cash and will surely be very hard to beat against largely exposed rivals. |
| 12th June 2013 | Chris Wall has an excellent record at Yarmouth, winning 48 races from 290 runners and holding an "in the frame" strike rate of 38%. A £1 on every runner would have made a profit of £21.86 at SP, and in a trappy handicap at 4.10 he runs the promising maiden Oh So Sassy, who seems very leniently treated on her debut in this sphere and will take a great deal of beating under Seb Sanders. |
| 11th June 2013 | Gary Moore has sent out 140 winners from 751 runners at his local track of Fontwell, winning £675,000 in prize money and boasting an "in the frame" strike rate of 48%. In the handicap at 3.15 this afternoon he runs the moody Lajidaal, who has slipped in the weights after sulking on all his recent starts, and could be the sort to be enlivened by a different headgear combination (blinkers and an eyeshield fitted). |
| 10th June 2013 | Veteran Seb Sanders has a superb record at the undulating course of Brighton, winning 121 race from 565 rides. His "in the frame" strike rate is a superb 46% and a profit of £41.49 has been made by backing all of his runners here at SP. In the handicap at 5.15 he is booked to ride Volcanic Dust, who shaped as though about to hit top form at Bath last time out and now looks very well treated after enduring a long time in the wilderness. |
| 7th June 2013 | A £1 at SP on all of Andrew Baldings 271 runners at Bath has yielded a profit of £23.71, with 44 winners so far and prize money earnings of £254,000. His "in the frame" strike rate is an impressive 44%, and the course winner Top Cop looks to hold outstanding claims in the 3.35. He has cut little ice in top handicaps of late, but has ideal conditions today and might be able to pick off the trailblaing favourite Fair Value in the closing stages. |
| 6th June 2013 | Veteran Seb Sanders has a superb record at the undulating course of Brighton, winning 120 race from 564 rides. His "in the frame" strike rate is 46% and he is booked to ride Langley Vale in the 2.30 this afternoon, who seems certain to go very close after shaping well when third over five furlongs here last time out. |
| 5th June 2013 | Paul Nicholls record at Newton Abbot is remarkable even by his very high standards. He has trained 104 winners here from 341 runners, earning £633,000 in prize money and boasts an "in the frame" strike rate of 58%. A £1 level stake at SP on all his runners has yielded a profit of £71.30, and the unexposed Aikideau looks an interesting runner off topweight in a winnable handicap at 4.50 this afternoon. |
| 4th June 2013 | Tim Easterby tops the trainers table at Ripon with 70 winners from 846 runners, and prize money earnings of £586,000. His "in the frame" strike rate is a respectable 30%, and the unexposed Toms Anna can improve that record in a wide open sprint handicap at 4.00 this afternoon. She showed excellent pace when going off far too hard on her debut in this sphere, and a drop down in trip looks ideal from a low draw. |
| 3rd June 2013 | Jamie Spencer has a good record at Leicester, where the long straight and wide open spaces presumably mean his finessing, hold-up riding style is seen to best effect. He has ridden 55 winners from 272 runners here, earning £324,000 in prize money for connections and boasts an "in the frame" strike rate of 47%. In a weak maiden at 4.45 he is booked for the class dropping Annas Pearl, who looks banker material after being very highly tried without success recently. |
| 2nd June 2013 | Lucy Wadham has a superb record around the tight Fakenham circuit, winning 26 races from 109 runners and boasting an "in the frame" rate of 60%. A £1 at SP on all of them would have made a profit of £36.13, and her course specialist The Black Baron has excellent claims to improve that in the handicap at 3.30 |
| 31st May 2013 | Kieren Fallon has a superb record at the very tricky undulating Epsom course, winning 44 races from 188 rides here and earning £3.3m in prize money for connections. His "in the frame" strike rate is 40%, and a £1 level stake on every mount would have made a profit of £34.78. In the opening Group 3 at 1.35, he is booked to ride John Dunlop's globetrotting Beautrice Aurore, who looks sure to go close under ideal circumstances. |
| 30th May 2013 | Seb Sanders is now in the twilight of his career, but his record at the undulating seaside course of Brighton is an excellent one. He has ridden 120 winners here from 562 rides, earning £489,000 in prize money and boasts an "in the frame" strike rate of 46%. In the maiden at 3.30 this afternoon, he is booked to ride John Hills' Watcheroftheskies, who looks sure to go very close if able to reproduce the best of his juvenile efforts. |
| 29th May 2013 | Gary Moore tops the trainers table at Fontwell, with 140 winners from 749 runners and prize money earnings of £675,000. His "in the frame" strike rate is an excellent 49%, and the unexposed Dr Thistle looks an interesting runner in the novice handicap at 3.40 this afternoon. He rather sulked in a first time visor when fourth of five here last time out, but could improve for the experience and fast ground could also see him in a different light. |
| 28th May 2013 | Richard Hannon's record at Leicester has stood the test of time, with 67 winners from 426 runners here and prize money earnings of £446,000. His "in the frame" strike rate is a useful 42%, and the Windsor maiden winner Pivotal Movement looks well handicapped on his seasonal reappearance in the handicap at 3.00 this afternoon. At around 5-1 this morning, he appeals as a good each-way investment with Richard Hughes booked and few credible rivals to the hot favourite Pythagorean. |
| 27th May 2013 | Donald McCain sits on top of the Cartmel trainers table, with 26 winners from 98 runners and an "in the frame" strike rate of 56% at the unique Cumbrian track. In the handicap at 3.05 this afternoon he runs the consistent Storming Gale, who will relish the quickening ground and looks a solid each-way option in a race where few can be given a chance. |
| 24th May 2013 | Chris Wall is the trainer to follow at Yarmouth, with an "in the frame" strike rate of 38% and prize money earnings of just under £200,000. For a small yard, his tally of 45 winners from 282 runners is excellent, and a £1 on all of these at SP shows a profit of £15. In the handicap at 3.20, he introduces Newmarket maiden winner Bassara after a 335 day absence, and this lightly raced filly looks very well treated against far more exposed rivals. |
| 23rd May 2013 | Mark Johnston has a superb record at Goodwood, with £1 on every one of his 501 runners at the Sussex track yielding a profit of £95.60. He has trained 72 winners here and boasts an excellent "in the frame" strike rate of 35%, and the consistent course winner Tartan Jura looks a solid each-way option in the handicap at 4.20. He raced lazily on fast ground at Doncaster last time, but is the sort to bounce back quickly and had been running with credit through the winter on the all-weather. |
| 22nd May 2013 | Jockey Noel Fehily has an excellent record at Huntingdon, with £1 placed on every one of his 205 rides here showing a profit of £103.17. He has booted home 39 winners at this speed course with an "in the frame" strike rate of 40%, and he is booked to ride the progressive Kilrush in the 4.10. The 7-y-o was quite impressive off a fast pace at Worcester last time out, and should be able to defy a penalty over a longer trip that promises to suit. |
| 21st May 2013 | Tim Easterby is the leading trainer at Newcastle with 81 winners from 801 runners and prize money earnings of £682,000. His "in the frame" strike rate is a respectable 32% here, and his recent intake Arc Light looks a cracking each-way bet in the handicap at 4.30 this afternoon. The ex-Godolphin 5-y-o has made steady progress since joining this yard, pulling too hard when fourth over course and distance last time out, and should be spot on to peak in a race lacking strength in depth. |
| 20th May 2013 | A £1 level stake at SP on all of Bryan Smart's 305 runners at Redcar would have made a remarkable profit of £95.41, with 44 winners and an "in the frame" strike rate of 34%. In a tight handicap at 4.10 this afternoon he runs Verinico, who slipped in the weights dramatically during a poor season for the stable in 2012, and can be expected to go very well if primed after 109 days off (tongue tie/visor on and talented 5lb claimer Willie Twiston-Davies up). |
| 17th May 2013 | Richard Hannon dominates Newbury with 145 winners at the Berkshire venue from 1455 runners. He has earnt £2.6m in prize money and has an "in the frame" strike rate of a respectable 28%. In the opening juvenile at 1.30 he introduces the very highly touted newcomer Championship, who has been the subject of rave reports at home and will surely be very hard to beat judged by the early market confidence. |
| 16th May 2013 | "King Kieren" is the leading jockey on the Knavesmire and has been riding back at the top of his powers in the past few weeks. He has partnered 80 winners here from 499 rides, earning £3.3m in prize money and boasts an "in the frame" strike rate of an excellent 39%. In the Group 2 Dante at 2.45 he is booked for the classy Greatwood, who is expected to reverse form with Newmarket conqueror Windhoek and take this valuable prize before heading to Epsom for the Derby. |
| 15th May 2013 | Richard Fahey is the leading trainer at York, with 86 winners from 895 runners and over £2m in prize money earnings. His "in the frame" strike rate is 28% and Farlow looks primed to improve that in the handicap at 2.15. The 5-y-o has cut little ice in two ninth placed runs for his new yard, but there was a great deal more encouragement last time than the bare result and it is likely he has been laid out for this valuable prize . |
| 14th May 2013 | Mark Johnston's record at Beverley is a remarkable one. From 513 runners he has trained 117 winners, earnt £724,000 in prize money and has an "in the frame" strike rate of 53%. A £1 at SP on every runner here would have made a profit of £67.85, and the consistent maiden Conversing looks sure to be very hard to beat switched to the turf in a weak handicap at 4.40 this afternoon. |
| 13th May 2013 | A £1 level stake at SP on all of Dandy Nicholls runners at Musselburgh would have yielded a profit of £39.83. He has trained 61 winners here, earning £388,000 in prize money and boasts a decent "in the frame" strike rate of 37%. In a weak maiden at 4.15 he runs the experienced Queen Flush, who can bounce back from a poor run on handicap debut last time out in these much calmer waters. |
| 12th May 2013 | Gary Moore leads the way at Plumpton with 107 winners from 567 runners here, boasting an "in the frame" strike rate of 51% as he has earnt £525,000 in prize money. In the opening novice hurdle he runs Amen, who has been very disappointing since arriving from Ireland but is surely capable of better with the faster ground sure to see him in a better light dropped in grade. |
| 10th May 2013 | A £1 level stake on all of Nigel Twiston-Davies 138 runners at Market Rasen would have made a remarkable profit of just under £50 at SP. He has trained 34 winners here, earning 268,000 in prize money and boasts an "in the frame" strike rate of 49%., and that can be improved upon by D´Gigi in the handicap at 4.40 this afternoon. He shaped well on his debut for these new, in form connections when second at Towcester and can now go one better under ideal conditions. |
| 9th May 2013 | Popular Liverpool based rider Franny Norton is the man to follow at the sharp Chester track, with 63 winners here from 469 rides and prize money earnings of 823,000. His in the frame strike rate is a useful 34%, and the unexposed Cawett Cove looks an interesting runner in the handicap at 5.00 this afternoon. A good draw in stall 5 means a positive ride is likely, and he hinted strongly when third last time out that his turn is near. |
| 8th May 2013 | Richard Fahey heads the Chester trainers table with 46 winners from 352 runners here and prize money earnings of £760,000. His in the frame strike rate is 41% and the race fit Gabrial the Master is sure to go very well from an ideal draw in the handicap at 5.00 this afternoon. |
| 7th May 2013 | Jamie Spencer tops the jockeys table at Yarmouth with 92 career winners from 473 rides at the seaside venue. He has earnt £396,000 in prize money over the years while maintaining an "in the frame" strike rate of 47%, and it looks a big clue that the astute David Brown yard have booked him on Burning Dawn for the handicap at 4.20 this afternoon. The 3-y-o shaped with promise on all three starts as a juvenile despite obvious inexperience, and looks well treated if ready to go after 231 days on the sidelines. |
| 6th May 2013 | Richard Hannon tops the trainers table at Windsor, recently notching his 200th winner at the Berkshire venue from 1360 runners. His prize money earnings now top £1.3m and an "in the frame" strike rate of 40% highlights his expertise at placing his horses in the right races. Sea Shanty landed a touch on his handicap/seasonal debut over this course and distance 14 days ago, and he looks maximum bet material in a bid to follow up in the 4.35. |
| 5th May 2013 | Mark Johnston has an excellent record at Hamilton, with 116 winners from 554 runners, prize money earnings of £911,000 and an "in the frame" strike rate of 48%. In a decent maiden at 4.35, he runs the once-raced Maputo after 350 days on the sidelines, who looks sure to go very close after finishing a promising second on his juvenile debut (form has worked out well and might be a cut above these). |
| 3rd May 2013 | David Nicholls has made a great start to the new turf season and his record at Musselburgh stands the closest inspection. He has sent out 61 winners from 431 runners here, has an "in the frame" strike rate of 37%, and a £1 level stake on all his horses shows a profit of £40.83. In the handicap at 5.05 he runs toppweight West Leake Hare, who shaped well under a negative ride at Catterick first time out, and is sure to improve with son Adrian now in the saddle. |
| 2nd May 2013 | A £1 level stake (at SP) on all 303 Bryan Smart runners at Redcar over the years would have made a remarkable profit of £97.41. In the handicap at 5.35 this afternoon he runs the hooded Armada Bay, who looks overpriced at around 14-1 this morning. The 3-y-o ran a bit better than the bare form at Catterick last time out, and has decent each-way claims if returning to his placed form on the all-weather a few months earlier. |
| 1st May 2013 | Mark Johnston has an excellent record with this Southern raiders at Ascot, topping the table with 79 winners here and prize money earnings of £2.1m. His "in the frame" strike rate is a respectable 32%, and the classy stayer Sir Graham Wade is sure to strip fitter for his recent seasonal debut in the Group 3 Sagaro Stakes at 3.35 this afternoon. |
| 30th April 2013 | Sir Michael Stoute is the leading trainer at Yarmouth, with 54 winners at the seaside venue from 212 runners and prize money earnings of £325,000. His "in the frame" strike rate is 52% and the unexposed Claim looks sure to go very close in the handicap at 3.10. He has been gelded since last seen and appears well treated, with Ryan Moore an encouraging booking after 224 days on the sidelines. |
| 29th April 2013 | Nicky Richards is the man to follow at Kelso, with 70 career winners here and prize money earnings of £409,000. His "in the frame" strike rate is 42% here, and the reliable veteran Merrydown looks a solid each-way option in the handicap hurdle at 3.10 this afternoon. |
| 28th April 2013 | Sue Smith has trained 82 winners from 582 runners at Wetherby, earning £696,000 in prize money and boasting an "in the frame" strike rate of 37%. In the handicap at 5.15 she runs the unexposed Brother Scott, who shaped very well when third on his debut in this sphere at Doncaster and is sure to go very close with Samantha Drake taking off 5lb. |
| 26th April 2013 | Remarkably Irish trainer Gordon Elliot is the leading trainer at Perth. He has sent out 84 winners here from 305 runners, earning £439,000 in prize money and holding an "in the frame" strike rate of 60%. In the opening novice hurdle at 2.20 he runs his recent intake Jimmy the Hat, who is sure to strip fitter for a pipe opener at Clonmel and will appreciate the better ground here. |
| 24th April 2013 | A £1 level stake on all of Andrew Balding's 156 lifetime runners at Epsom have yielded a profit of £39, and his "in the frame" strike rate is an excellent 44%. He can add to his 25 winners here in the Great Metropolitan handicap at 2.50 this afternoon, where the consistent Beyond Conceit looks sure to go close after running well on his seasonal appearance. |
| 23rd April 2013 | Rebecca Curtis has an extraordinary record at Ffos Las, winning 49 races from just 179 runners here and boasting an "in the frame" strike rate of 60%. In the bumper at 4.45 she introduces the well regarded newcomer Audacious Plan, who is sure to go very close especially if the market speaks loudly in his favour near the off. |
| 22nd April 2013 | Mark Johnston has an excellent record at Pontefract, sending out 65 winners from 448 runners here and holding an "in the frame" strike rate of 42%. He runs the quietly improving Blue Wave in the handicap at 2.40 this afternoon, who appears leniently treated after going up 1lb for a game victory at Kempton last time up. |
| 21st April 2013 | Tim Easterby has sent out 81 winners at Newcastle, earning £682,000 in prize money and boasting an "in the frame" strike rate of 32%. In the handicap at 4.20 he runs the progressive One for Luck, who has improved for faster ground and can defy an 8lb rise in the weights under Dougie Costello. |
| 19th April 2013 | Jim Goldie has sent out 135 winners from 1437 runners at his local course of Ayr, and traditionally targets the Scottish National meeting. He has Jonny Delta entered for the handicap hurdle at 1.40, who looks sure to be very hard to beat after impressing over this course and distance last time up with Denis O'Regan in the saddle. |
| 18th April 2013 | Nobody rides Newmarket better than Richard Hughes, and the champion jockey is top of the table here after 110 winners from 757 rides. He has an "in the frame" strike rate of 39% with prize money earnings of £3.2m, so a bold showing from Angels will Fall in the Group 3 Abernant (3.30) looks very likely from a high draw. The stands rail was strongly favoured yesterday, and it would be no surprise to see Hughes grab pole position from the off on this classy sprinter. |
| 16th April 2013 | Phillip Hobbs is the man to follow at Exeter. The "master trainer" has an in the frame strike rate of 48% here, with 136 career winners and prize money earnings of over £900,000. In a warm looking bumper at 5.20 he introduces Boogie in the Barn, and a positive market move would be a huge clue he was fit and readied with Richard Johnson in the saddle. |
| 15th April 2013 | Tim Easterby tops the trainers table at Newcastle with 81 winners from 789 runners, boasting a decent "in the frame" strike rate of 32% while he has earnt £682,000 in prize money. In an interesting handicap at 3.30 he runs Arc Light, who has shown plenty of ability in maidens for these new connections and seems leniently treated switched to this sphere, with quickening ground likely to suit the promising 5lb claimer Daryl Byrne booked. |
| 14th April 2013 | Jonjo O'Neill has an excellent record at Market Rasen with 82 winners from 494 runner here, and an "in the frame" strike rate of 42%. He sends out Beckhani in the handicap hurdle at 3.35, who was well backed over course and distance last time out and shapes as though capable of better from his current mark (quicker ground may see him in a different light). |
| 12th April 2013 | Sue Smith tops the trainers table at Wetherby with 82 winners from 578 runners here, boasting an "in the frame" strike rate of 37% as she has amassed £696,000 in prize money. Green Wizard looks sure to run well in a competitive handicap hurdle at 4.00, shaping well over 2m4f here last time out and set to improve on the drying ground/stiffer stamina test. |
| 11th April 2013 | Gary Moore has sent out 706 runners at his local track of Fontwell, training 135 winners and earning £654,000 in prize money. His "in the frame" strike rate is an impressive 49%, and his tough, frontrunning stayer Fruity O'Rooney is going to take a deal of pegging back in the handicap at 4.20 this afternoon. |
| 9th April 2013 | Sue Smith, fresh from triumph in the Grand National, is the lady to follow at Carlisle. From 363 runners here, she has trained 55 winners and earnt £413,000 in prize money. An "in the frame" strike rate of 42% can be improved up by Alta Rock in the 2.20 this afternoon, who will relish the fast ground and can go close if getting a positive ride from Timmy Murphy, over a trip that is a bare minimum for him. |
| 8th April 2013 | Nicky Richards is the man to follow at Kelso, with 70 winners from 328 runners here and prize money earnings of £409,000. His "in the frame" strike rate is an excellent 43%, and he has good claims of improving that with Streams of Whiskey in the handicap at 5.00 this afternoon. The 6-y-o was an impressive winner over course and distance earlier in the season, and has been freshened up by a 96 day absence since running a flat race when eigth last time up. |
| 5th April 2013 | A £1 level stake at SP on all of Jonjo O'Neill's 252 runners at Aintree would have yielded a £35 profit (40 winners and a 36% in the frame strike rate). He runs the classy Get Me out of Here in the handicap at 4.50, who appears a shade overpriced at 20-1 this morning, with quicker ground hopefully prompting a revival in his fortunes after a rare poor effort at the Festival three weeks ago. |
| 4th April 2013 | The Champ A.P.McCoy tops the Aintree jockeys table, with 54 lifetime winners from 336 rides and an "in the frame" strike rate of 43%. He has earnt £2.8m in prize money for connections over the years, and is booked to ride Vasco du Roncerey in the 2.00 this afternoon. The 4-y-o shaped well when fifth in the Triumph hurdle, and this flat speed course may play more to his strengths than some of his market rivals. |
| 3rd April 2013 | Richie McGrath is the leading jumps jockey at Wetherby, with 45 career winners here and prize money earnings of £346,000. His "in the frame" strike rate is a respectable 32%, and he can improve that on board the unexposed Doyentherighthing at 2.40 this afternoon. The 5-y-o has shown ability in deep ground through the winter, and didn't get the chance to show what he can do in handicaps when unseating early on last time up. |
| 2nd April 2013 | Phillip Hobbs tops the trainers table at Exeter with 136 winners from 692 runners. He has an "in the frame" strike rate of 48% with prize money earnings of £905,000, and his progressive novice Lord Protector looks very interesting on his handicap debut at 2.40 this afternoon. |
| 1st April 2013 | Nicky Henderson has a superb record at Huntingdon with 62% of his runners here finishing "in the frame". He sends out Springinherstep for the novice hurdle at 2.40 this afternoon, sure to be fresh and well after 144 days away from the action and receiving weight from her penalised main market rival. |
| 31st March 2013 | Gary Moore is the man to follow at his local course of Plumpton. He has trained 107 winners from 554 runners here, with a £1 level stake profit of £57 from backing every horse he sends out. In the handicap chase at 3.00 he runs the temperamental Lajidaal, who has excellent claims if on a "going-day" under Jamie Moore. |
| 28th March 2013 | Evan Williams is the man to follow at his local track of Ffos Las. He has sent out 325 runners here, with 45 winners to date and prize money earnings of £257,000. His "in the frame" strike rate is a useful 38% and topweight Firebird Flyer can enhance that in the 3.25 this afternoon. Lumping 11-12 in this ground is never easy, but he ran well when second at Uttoxeter last time and has the talented 3lb claimer Adam Wedge in the saddle to do the steering. |
| 27th March 2013 | Sue Smith is the leading trainer at Wetherby with 82 winners from 568 runners so far. She has an "in the frame" strike rate of 36%, and the quirky but talented Rebel Swing can boost that in the handicap at 4.30 this afternoon. |
| 26th March 2013 | Backing trainer Brendan Powell at Fontwell to a £1 level stake at SP has yielded a £52 profit, and he is represented in the 2.40 this afternoon by One for the Boss. He has a chunk to find on the figures with Sustainability, but is open to a bit of improvement and this mornings offer of around 12-1 looks a shade over the odds. |
| 25th March 2013 | No jockey has earnt more from Lingfield all-weather racing than Eddie Ahern, with prize money of £1.3m as he has ridden 216 winners from 1669 rides. His "in the frame" strike rate is 38%, and he is on the prolific winner Valdaw in a very winnable handicap at 3.10. |
| 24th March 2013 | Richard Johnson is the leading jockey at Wincanton, with 72 winners from 383 runners here and prize money earnings of £589,000. His "in the frame" strike rate is an excellent 49%, and he is on board Petroupetrov in the handicap chase at 3.25 this afternoon. A fair hurdler when on song, he has a new headgear combination for this return to the larger obstacles and appears leniently treated if finding a rhythm over the fences. |
| 22nd March 2013 | Nicky Henderson, fresh from a superb week at the Festival, is the man to follow at Newbury. He has trained 130 winners here from 685 runners, earning £1.9m in prize money. In a wide open handicap at 5.30 this afternoon he runs the unexposed Union de Cheret, who has shown more than a hint of ability in three qualifying runs and would be very interesting if the cash arrived later on. |
| 21st March 2013 | The ever-grafting David Evans has sent out 1828 runners on the all-weather at Wolverhampton, leading the trainers table with 187 winners here and prize money earnings of £668,000. His "in the frame" strike rate is a decent 32%, and the consistent, if quirky handicapper One Way or Another seems set to go very close in the 2.30 this afternoon. |
| 20th March 2013 | A £1 level stake on all of 291 Nigel Twiston-Davies runners at Warwick shows a profit of over £19, with 44 winners at this sharp left handed course and prize money earnings of £355,000.

| 19th March 2013 | Richard Johnson is the leading jockey at Exeter, with 130 winners here from 552 rides and prize money earnings of £856,000. His "in the frame" strike rate is over 50%, and he is booked to ride Henry Daly's handicap debutante Brave Buck in the 4.30 this afternoon. A positive market move would encourage, but he has showed some promise in fair novice hurdles and a step up in trip looks exactly what is required. |
| 17th March 2013 | Sue Smith is the trainer to follow at Carlisle, with 55 winners from 359 runners and prize money earnings of £413,000. Her "in the frame" strike rate is 42% and the usually reliable Yurok seems sure to go close in the handicap at 3.00 this afternoon. |
| 15th March 2013 | Willie Mullins has had a fantastic three days at the Festival, but his overall record at Cheltenham stands up to the closest scrutiny. He has trained 32 winners here from 265 runners, earning £2.5m in prize money, and remarkably a £1 level stake at SP on his horses shows a profit of £18. In the 2.40 he sends out the progressive Inish Island, who has ground to make up on the favourite At Fishers Cross, but may well still be improving, will love the easing ground, and looks a few points over-priced at the each-way price of 12-1 this morning. |
| 14th March 2013 | Amateur rider Mr J.T.McNamara has a superb record at Cheltenham, with 15 winners from just 61 rides here and earnings of £340,000. A £1 level stake win bet at SP on all of his rides here has made a profit of nearly £50, and that expertise will be a huge asset in the handicap at 4.40 this afternoon where he partners the quirky Galaxy Rock. The blinkered 9-y-o sulked in heavy ground last time out, but had finished a close second to Balthazar King previously and on this decent ground can be expected to go very close. |
| 13th March 2013 | Champion trainer Paul Nicholls had a rare quiet day at the Festival yesterday with just two runners, but he has a fantastic record overall. From 1025 runners he has trained 161 winners, earning £7.8m in prize money and boast a very respectable "in the frame" strike rate of 39%. In a very competitive handicap at 4.00 he runs the underated Black Thunder, who will appreciate the drying ground and relish the fast pace assured in this huge field. |
| 12th March 2013 | Ruby Walsh has a remarkable record at Cheltenham throughout his career. From 625 rides here, he was ridden 134 winners, earning £6.7m in prize money and maintaining an "in the frame" strike rate of 47%. A £1 level stake on all of his rides would have made a profit of £21.76 at SP, and he is booked to ride the classy Champagne Fever in the opener, who looks primed to go very close under ideal circumstances this afternoon. |
| 11th March 2013 | Gary Moore is the leading trainer at Plumpton, with 107 winners from 548 runners at his local track. A £1 level stake on all of his lifetime entries here would have made a profit of £63.77 at SP, and an "in the frame" strike rate of 51% shows how well he does at the tight, undulating Sussex venue. In a trappy handicap at 4.10 this afternoon, he runs Zouti who has been disappointing in a light campaign since winning at Towcester but could easily bounce back in this lesser contest, particularly if the market speaks favourably close to the off. |
| 9th March 2013 | Champion trainer Paul Nicholls has a remarkable record at Sandown. From 404 runners here, he has an "in frame" strike rate of 53%, winning 94 races and earning £2.8m in prize money. The quirky, but rapidly progressive Mr Mole looks a very worthy favourite in the Imperial Cup at 3.15 this afternoon, sure to be produced late up the hill by Tony McCoy in ground that is sure to be extremely testing after another load of overnight rain in Esher. |
| 8th March 2013 | Jim Goldie has sent out 1424 runners at Ayr, with 132 winners to date and prize money earnings of £844,000. His "in the frame" strike rate is 27%, and the course and distance winner Too Cool to Fool looks sure to go well in the handicap at 2.40 this afternoon. He ran as though amiss last time when pulled up, but had been progressive before that and is taken to bounce back to form under ideal conditions. |
| 7th March 2013 | Sue Smith is the trainer to follow at Carlisle, with 55 winners from 359 runners and prize money earnings of £413,000. Her "in the frame" strike rate is 42% and the reliable Tahiti Pearl seems sure to go close in the 4.50. The topweight ran poorly last time at Doncaster, but will appreciate this drop in class and is sure to make a bold bid from the front under Ryan Mania. |
| 5th March 2013 | Phillip Hobbs tops the trainers table at Exeter with 136 lifetime winners here, earning £905,000 in prize money along the way with an impressive "in the frame" strike rate of 49%. In a competitive handicap at 5.00 this afternoon he runs the promising Tamira, who has shown some promise in his qualifying runs and is worth a very careful look in the market close to the off to guage the stable confidence behind him (from a feasible opening mark). |
| 4th March 2013 | Evan Williams is the man to follow at his local track of Ffos Las. He has sent out 318 runners here, with 44 winners to date and prize money earnings of £254,000. His "in the frame" strike rate is a useful 38%, and the talented De Kaprio may prove a cut above his rivals in the handicap at 4.35 this afternoon. |
| 1st March 2013 | Tim Easterby is the leading dual purpose trainer at Doncaster, with 49 winners from 688 runners and prize money earnings of £976,000. He sends out Mojolika in the trappy handicap at 2.10, who shaped very well when fourth on his latest start in August and is worth a careful market check close to the off to guage the confidence behind him. |
| 28th February 2013 | Nicky Henderson has a superb record at Ludlow, with 79 winners from 246 runners there and an "in the frame" strike rate of 57%. His prize money earnings are now £350,000, and he introduces a newcomer in the opening novice hurdle at 2.00 in the ex-Irish Who's Cross. A useful bumper performer for Willie Mullins, he is sure to be schooled and ready for his debut, and has Bullet Street to beat in a race that looks a straight match. |
| 27th February 2013 | Paul Nicholls has sent out 790 runners at his local track of Wincanton, winning 210 races and earning £2.2m in prize money along the way. He has an excellent "in the frame" strike rate of 57% here, and his Criptonic holds excellent claims off topweight in the handicap at 3.00 this afternoon. He has run with promise on all three starts in the UK, travelling well and hinting that this step up in trip will be ideal. |
| 26th February 2013 | Venetia Williams is in red hot form right now and is the leading NH trainer at Leicester. From 136 runners here, she has sent out 32 winners, earning £192,000 in prize money and boasting an "in the frame" strike rate of 41%. In the 4.00 she runs the progressive Howards Legacy, who seems sure to go very close under ideal circumstances having run really well when a close second last time out. |
| 25th February 2013 | Gary Moore dominates his local course of Plumpton, winning 107 races in his career to date and earning £523,000 in prize money. A £1 level stake at SP on all his runners shows a profit of £63, and his in the frame strike rate is a remarkable 51%. In the opening novice hurdle at 2.10 he runs the promising Asker, who shaped very well over course and distance last time out (form well franked since), and meets a very vulnerable favourite in Leviathan. |
| 23rd February 2013 | Paul Nicholls has sent out 559 runners at Chepstow, winning 134 races and earning nearly £1.2m in prize money. His "in the frame" strike rate is a remarkable 54%, and the progressive Landscape must go very closein the handicap at 3.55 this afternoon. He did far too much too soon last time in a hot event won by Gevrey Chambertin at Wincanton last time, and is sure to be ridden more patiently here under topweight by the promising 7lb claimer James Cowley. |
| 22nd February 2013 | Alan King has sent out more winners than any other trainer at Warwick, with a tally of 54 from 286 runners as he has amassed £444,000 in prize money. He has an "in the frame" strike rate of 46% here, and introuduces an interesting newcomer in the bumper at 5.20 in Calypso Princess. A positive move in the betting would encourage support, with very few with experience looking anything out of the ordinary. |

He has earnt £439,000 in prize money and has an excellent "in the frame" strike rate of 46%. In a tight handicap at 4.40 this afternoon he runs Domoly, who shaped very well on his seasonal bow at Carlisle before "bouncing" next time at Towcester, and looks sure to run well here under ideal conditions. |
| 20th February 2013 | Robert Thornton is the leading NH jockey at Doncaster, with 23 winners from 122 rides here, and an impressive "in the frame" strike rate of 48%. He is on board the lightly raced Hot Whiskey at 3.25 this afternoon, who has shaped with promise in two Wincanton novice hurdles and looks capable of a lot better. |
| 19th February 2013 | Sue Smith has sent out 562 runners at Wetherby, topping the trainers table with 80 winners so far and prize money earnings of £692,000. She has a decent "in the frame" strike rate of 36% here, and her consistent stayer Highrate holds good each-way claims in the handicap at 2.10 this afternoon. |

| 15th February 2013 | Paul Nicholls has a terrific record at Sandown, with 92 winners from 397 runners so far and an "in the frame" strike rate of 53%. In the Royal Artillery Gold Cup at 3.00 he runs the classy Gwanako, who will strip fitter for a recent run here and should be very hard to beat against some modest opposition. |
| 14th February 2013 | Venetia Williams is in red hot form right now and is the leading NH trainer at Leicester. From 136 runners here, she has sent out 32 winners, earning £192,000 in prize money and boasting an "in the frame" strike rate of 41%. In a modest handicap at 4.00 this afternoon, the consistent Last Shot should go very close under ideal circumstances with Aidan Coleman in the saddle. |
| 12th February 2013 | Jim Goldie has sent out 1415 runners at his local track Ayr, topping the trainers table with 128 winners, earning £821,000 in prize money and has an "in the frame" strike rate of 27%. Bene Lad has to lump topweight in the 4.00 this afternoon, but will revel in the testing ground and is likely to make a bold bid from the front dropped down to the minimum trip. |
| 10th February 2013 | Richard Johnson is the top jockey at Exeter, winning 130 races here and earning £856,000 in prize money along the way. He has an excellent "in the frame" strike rate of 51%, and the useful hurdler Pateese has been given a chance by the assesor on his handicap chase debut at 3.30 this afternoon.

His only runner of the day, Los Nadis, is a five time course winner who looks overpriced this morning after failing to fire over the larger obstacles.

He has an excellent "in the frame" strike rate of 57% here, and topweight Michel le Bon looks sure to go very close in the 3.10.

| 30th January 2013 | Nicky Henderson has an excellent record at Ludlow, placing his runners very carefully here and enjoying a remarkable "in the frame" strike rate of 57% as a result. He has trained 77 winners here from 234 runners, earning £343,000 in prize money and introduces a promising debutante in the 4.10.

He picks and chooses his rides carefully, earning £820,000 in prize money with 192 winners so far, and it looks a big clue that he is booked for Asterism in the seller at 3.30 today.

From 1558 rides he has amassed 225 winners, earning over £1m in prize money and maintaining a decent "in the frame" strike rate of 35%.

He finishes 1st, 2nd or 3rd on 37% of his rides here, earning over £1/2m in prize money on the way, and has an excellent book of rides at the Sunbury venue this afternoon.

From 1558 rides he has amassed 225 winners, earning over £1m in prize money and maintaining a decent "in the frame" strike rate of 35%. He is an interesting booking in the 3.45 this afternoon on the once raced Lars Krister, who showed a bit of promise 207 days ago and returns with blinkers fitted. A positive market move would further envourage support given the weakness of his rivals. |
| 17th January 2013 | Paul Nicholls has sent out 207 winners from 774 runners at Wincanton, earning £2.2m in prize money and has an "in the frame" strike rate of 58%.

His in the frame strike rate is a respectable 38% here, and Tornant looks overpriced in the handicap hurdle at 2.45 this afternoon. The 7-y-o was well backed over the larger obstacles last time out but failed to jump with any fluency, and this looks a sensible step in a modest contest. |
| 14th January 2013 | Gary Moore dominates his local course of Plumpton, winning 107 races in his career to date and earning £522,000 in prize money. A £1 level stake at SP on all his runners shows a profit of £67, and his in the frame strike rate is a remarkable 51%.

| 13th January 2013 | Nicky Richards tops the trainers table at Kelso with 66 lifetime winner and prize money earnings of £393,000. He has an "in the frame" strike rate of 42% and can improve on that further with his exciting novice Duke of Navan in the 12.50.

| 12th January 2013 | Sue Smith is the leading trainer at Wetherby, with 74 lifetime winners and prize money earnings of £646,000. Her "in the frame" strike rate tops 36% and her "failed" chaser Kent Street looks a very interesting runner switched to hurdles in the handicap at 2.50 this afternoon. He has unseated the last twice but appeared in decent heart earlier in the season and appears overpriced at 14-1 this morning. |
| 11th January 2013 | Nicky Henderson has a fantastic record at Huntingdon. A £1 level stake on all 236 runners he has saddled here has yielded a £21 profit at SP, with 75 winners to date and an "in the frame" strike rate of 61%.

| 10th January 2013 | Tim Easterby heads the Catterick trainers table with 79 lifetime winners. He has earnt £443,000 in prize money along the way and has a respectable "in the frame" strike rate of 36%.

His runners finish 1st, 2nd or 3rd 58% of the time here, as he has earnt £750,000 in prize money from 135 lifetime winners.

He has ridden 217 winners from 1529 rides, earning nearly £1m in prize money and has a respectable "in the frame" strike rate of 35%.

He has now sent out 127 winners here, earning £1.9m in prize money and boasting an "in the frame" strike rate of 56%.
