J’Ai Froid recorded his second win this month when going in comfortably this afternoon at Doncaster under a 7lb penalty for his easy Ayr victory.
J'AI FROID, carrying a 7lb penalty but 5lb well in, has improved for the fitting of a visor and he staying hurdler on the up. He recorded an RPR of 120 last time so he can be competitive in his hat-trick bid whenever that comes.
On only his second outing for the Laura Morgan yard, J’Ai Froid ran out the convincing winner under a positive Max Kendrick ride at Ayr today.
J'AI FROID, now fitted with a visor, had clearly come on for his reappearance after missing the whole of last season. He relished conditions and ran right away from the field, winning with any amount in hand. He's a thorough stayer and this was a game effort but he will find life tougher when reassessed so a switch to fences could be on the horizon.
The evergreen Skipping On, given a superb ride by Adam Wedge, won for the sixth time for Laura Morgan at Warwick today.
SKIPPING ON had been mainly consistent over the past couple of years and added another success to his profile with a game effort, responding to his rider's urgings after the last to get to the front towards the finish.
Overworkdunderpaid continued the fine form of the Laura Morgan stable when winning at Hexham under a positive ride from Calum Bewley.
OVERWORKDUNDERPAID put in a solid round of jumping under a positive ride and opened his account under rules. This was his debut for a new yard, so switching scenery has evidently helped, and one has to think a first-time visor paid off too
A gutsy performance by Tardree saw this former Irish Point to Point Winner getting off the mark in England by a head in a close contest. The third winner in a wekk for the stable !
TARDREE proved game when headed down the home straight and the rising finish played into his hands. He bumped into one over C&D on his rules debut last month and, not surprisingly being an Irish point winner, ought to enjoy going up in trip once hurdling.
Promising 5yo Against All Odds made a gutsy winning hurdles debut at Catterick Park this afternoon under a determined ride from Ben Jones. The yard continues to be in top form !
A fair novice hurdle. AGAINST ALL ODDS showed promising ability in her two bumper starts at Perth earlier in the year and was popular in the betting markets here on her hurdling debut. The 5yo showed a smashing attitude in this first career success and has the potential to continue progressing over hurdles and fences.
Gold Fields got off the mark over fences at Fakenham today with a fine display of jumping to win impressively by 18 lengths. Still only a 6 year old he is now fulfilling the promise he has shown at home and hopefully there will be more to come..
GOLD FIELDS bounded clear from the second-last and recorded a first win under rules at the 14th time of asking. Rated as high as 88 over hurdles in the past, but without a place in any of 13 starts beforehand, this sudden improvement in form is difficult to fathom. He jumped well and travelled strongly throughout though, and will likely be in for a hefty hike in the weights once the handicapper has his say.
Big Penny wins going away despite a 6lbs rise in the handicap. She is in good form and clearly relishes the soft ground.
BIG PENNY came through under a well-timed ride and was well on top at the business end. She was up 6lb for winning at Perth last month and this deeper surface was no bother, so current connections obviously have her in tip-top form
Socialist Agenda maintained his unbeaten record and landed a hatrick of bumper wins when taking the closing race at Sedgefield on Tuesday 29th September 2020. Givin 17 lbs to the year older runner up this was an impressive performance and a fine ride by Adam Wedge.
This bumper had a couple of previous winners in it, so this ought to be fair enough form. SOCIALIST AGENDA, a two-time winner at Market Rasen, was strong in the market and maintained his unbeaten status with a decent weight carrying performance. He was pushed out in the final stages but never looked likely to be caught and will hopefully translate the ability to hurdling when the time comes. It's might be possible that he could be tried on the Flat at some stage.
Big Penny has been knocking on the door since joining the yard and got of the mark in good style today at Perth, given a top ride by Adam Wedge, who first won in these colours on Picky at Towcester back in October 2008 !
BIG PENNY collected her first win since October 2017. She'd run to RPRs better than her official mark the last twice, so she was in enough form to take advantage of any good opportunity that presented itself like this one.
