Anglers Crag runs at Wetherby Today!
Today we have runners at two jumps meetings, Wetherby and Hereford. Anglers Crag runs in the 4.55pm handicap chase on the card over three miles and Jack Tudor rides. It has not quite gone to plan for him so far this season since switching to fences but last time out at Chepstow was a step back in the right direction. He came from an unpromising position at one stage to running on well at the end to be a never nearer third. He put in a much better display of jumping as well and we have added cheek pieces on as well today which hopefully will just sharpen him up. He is definitely handicapped to run well by his home work but we just need him to put it all together on the track. Hopefully today will be his day! It looks a fairly competitive race for the grade with 16 runners and we are about 17/2 in the betting.

Pepsiwithacap runs at Wolverhampton Today!
Today we just have the one runner on the all-weather at Wolverhampton. Pepsiwithacap makes her stable debut in the 5.15pm handicap over 1m4f with Jason Watson in the saddle. Our four year old came from Gavin Cromwell in Ireland and she seems to have enjoyed running at Dundalk where from four starts she has won, finished second and finished third. She has won over hurdles and we will run her over hurdles this summer but we thought this was a good starting point from which we can learn a bit more about her. She finished second over 1m4f at Dundalk in November of a mark of 65 and ran okay back at that track in January. She runs today off a mark of 67 in a fairly open little contest with just seven runners. She is about 5/1 fourth best in the betting and hopefully she can put up a bold show in the colours of Jagger Ley Racing.

There are no runners from Pond House today but there is just the one jumps meeting at Fontwell. There are also flat meetings at Thirsk and on the all-weather at Southwell. Philip Armson travels to Fontwell for three rides but the first of these is in the 4.00pm race and then he rides in the last three races. All three horses are quite big prices but fingers crossed he can have some good spins.

There are no runners from Pond House today but they race over jumps at Ludlow and there are two all-weather meetings at New Astor and Lingfield. We actually had just the one entry for Ludlow today, Neon Moon who could have possibly ran in the 3.00pm handicap chase over three miles. We decided to wait for a bit longer with our fella but it looks a competitive race with seven runners and Annsam head the market at 5/2 but it looks a fairly open little contest.

There are no runners from Pond House today but there is jump racing action at Ascot this afternoon. They have some good, competitive races with plenty of runners throughout the card. Perhaps the most interesting race is the juvenile handicap hurdle at 3.00pm where 15 runners go to post. There are not many of these type of races and plenty of these runners were in action at the Cheltenham Festival. One horse that particularly caught my eye in this race was Grappa Nino ridden by Sean Bowen. He is travelling across the Irish Sea, trained by the very shrewd Dermot Weld and racing off a mark of 115. He won a 25 runner maiden hurdle at Navan at the beginning of March and although he wasn’t even that highly rated on the flat he might well be a better hurdler and I don’t think connections would be travelling over for a day out!

Last Quarter Runs at Uttoxeter Today
Today we have two runners at Uttoxeter, Make Me A Believer and Last Quarter. Make Me A Believer runs in the 3.55pm novices handicap chase over 2m4f with Fergus Gillard on board. Our eight year old has some very good hurdle form to his name but then sustained a tendon injury which kept him off the track for a while and he has gone chasing since his return. He has actually ran well in both of his starts but unfortunately after his comeback in December he then suffered another little set back which meant he didn’t run again until the beginning of March and therefore lost any benefit from that initial start.
