Loughderg Rocco Impressive at Leicester

Loughderg Rocco improved on his promising Wetherby chasing debut to make all and win convincingly over 2m 4f at Leicester under a positive ride from Adam Wedge. Number 30 of the season for the yard.

LOUGHDERG ROCCO was dropping back in trip after his close second on his debut over regulation fences at Wetherby in the autumn. He took his form to a new level with this comfortable success from the front. He is capable of defying a penalty before entering good handicap company.

Boxing Day win for Whistleinthedark

Whistleinthedark made all and jumped well on his chasing debut in first time hood, to record a comfortable victory at Market Rasen on Boxing Day, under a good ride from Patrick Cowley.

WHISTLEINTHEDARK did well on his chase debut. With a hood on for the first time, he settled well in front, and although not entirely fluent, won unchallenged. He should benefit from the experience and can progress further.

HWH SOU 4

Her We Have It wins at Southwell

In the end, Here we Have It won a shade comfortably in spite of hitting a flat spot down the back, he rallied well under yard 7lbs claimer Lewis Dobb who gave him a fine ride.

HERE WE HAVE IT made hard work of it and looked in trouble turning for home, but he rallied well to his credit and was well on top at the line. He's been tried over as far as 3m in the past, albeit unsuccessfully, but it's easy to see why connections thought he may want further.
