March 2023 – Laura Morgan Racing

Whistleinthedark stays on well at Kempton

QUOTES: WHISTLEINTHEDARK has been going well since he went chasing and I was hopeful coming here today. He’s been progressive and I think he’ll go to Aintree next month for a handicap – Laura Morgan, trainer.

WHISTLEINTHEDARK was dropping in trip, but the rain that fell beforehand made this more of a test. Always up with the pace before taking over with a mile left, he looked to be a sitting duck for the runner-up coming to the last, but his stamina came in useful and he kept on pulling out more on the run in to make it 3-3 over regulation fences. Winner of a two-runner novice chase last time, he was 21lb higher than when successful in a novices' handicap the time before which shows how much he is improving.

Charging Point off the mark at Southwell

Delighted to see Charging Point break his duck at Southwell having broken him in at North Lodge Equine during Lockdown ! A promising run and looks like he will stay 3 miles in due course.

Racing Post Ratings assessment: the winner was well in on his recent C&D run and arguably took a small step up on that effort with the second running to his mark. CHARGING POINT just about avoided the drama on the bend after three out, nipping around the inside and really seeing his race out well having got to the front. This was his first win at the seventh attempt and there should be further improvement in him, being just a 5yo.
