Re: Horse Racing
Fabre happy with France progress.
http://www.attheraces.info/article.a...e&sub=&day=Mon
Quote:
Andre Fabre could aim to complete the set of British Classic victories as he considers a tilt at the Qipco 1000 Guineas at Newmarket with Miss France.
The French maestro has already registered victories in the 2000 Guineas, the Derby, the Oaks and the St Leger, meaning the fillies' Rowley Mile Classic on May 4 is the only one to elude him during his illustrious career so far.

Re: Horse Racing
New One on song for Aintree.
http://www.attheraces.info/article.a...e&sub=&day=Tue
Quote:
The New One remains firmly on target for a second tilt at the Doom Bar Aintree Hurdle following his luckless run at the Cheltenham Festival.
Nigel Twiston-Davies' stable star was stopped in his tracks by the fall of the ill-fated Our Conor in last Tuesday's Champion Hurdle, but rallied tremendously well in the hands of the trainer's son, Sam, to finish third.

Re: Horse Racing
Aintree on Dynaste agenda.
http://www.attheraces.info/article.a...e&sub=&day=Tue
Quote:
David Pipe is planning to step his Ryanair Chase winner Dynaste back up to three miles at Aintree.
Last season, the grey struck over the same distance in the Mildmay Novices' Chase at the Grand National meeting but his only victory so far this term came at two miles and five furlongs last Thursday.

Re: Horse Racing
Cosgrave rocked by six-month ban.
http://www.attheraces.info/article.a...=&sub=&day=Tue
Quote:
Jockey Pat Cosgrave has been given a six-month ban for improper riding by the Emirates Racing Authority.
The 31-year-old, who has claimed a handful of Group One sprints in Britain, was aboard third-placed Anaerobio in the Group One Jebel Hatta at Meydan on March 8.

Re: Horse Racing
Injury ends Seabass National dream.
http://www.attheraces.info/article.a...e&sub=&day=Tue
Quote:
Seabass has been withdrawn from the Crabbie's Grand National after suffering a serious injury at Down Royal on Monday.
Trained by Ted Walsh and ridden by his daughter, Katie, Seabass was third at Aintree in 2012 and went off the 11-2 favourite last year only to finish 13th.

Re: Horse Racing

Ayr's Coral Scottish Grand National will boast a prize fund of £200,000 this year after receiving a £20,000 boost.
An extra £10,000 has also been added to the Scottish Champion Hurdle run on the same day, with over £500,000 available over the two days of the meeting.

Re: Horse Racing
Grandeur team to employ headgear.
http://www.attheraces.info/article.a...e&sub=&day=Wed
Quote:
Grandeur is set to wear cheekpieces for the first time in the coral.co.uk Winter Derby at Lingfield on Saturday.
Connections feel it will be a way to counteract the horse idling as he did when winning the Winter Derby Trial over the course and distance last month.

Re: Horse Racing
McCoy claims double century.
http://www.attheraces.info/article.a...e&sub=&day=Thu
Quote:
Tony McCoy rode his 200th winner of the season when Palermo Don struck in the finale at Haydock.
The perennial champion jockey yet again reached the noteworthy landmark when he got Donald McCain's 8-11 favourite home in the 32Red Tomb Raider Slot Standard Open National Hunt Flat Race.

Re: Horse Racing
McCoy chasing Gold with That.
http://www.attheraces.info/article.a...=&sub=&day=Fri
Quote:
Tony McCoy believes More Of That represents his best chance of winning another Betfred Cheltenham Gold Cup.
The 18-times champion preferred At Fishers Cross to More Of That in the Ladbrokes World Hurdle and was proved wrong as the six-year-old, trained by Jonjo O'Neill and owned by JP McManus, maintained his unbeaten record.

Re: Horse Racing
Guineas aim for Kingston.
http://www.attheraces.info/article.a...=&sub=&day=Fri
Quote:
Roger Varian has confirmed the Qipco 2000 Guineas as the first intended target for his stable star Kingston Hill.
Last year's Racing Post Trophy winner showed his well-being on the Newmarket gallops on Thursday morning as his preparations for the new season continued, with big-race jockey Andrea Atzeni riding him in a short exercise on Warren Hill, alongside the four-year-old Mutashadeed.

Re: Horse Racing
Thunder in Guineas frame.
http://www.attheraces.info/article.a...=&sub=&day=Fri
Quote:
Lightning Thunder could be Olly Stevens' first British Classic runner in the Qipco 1000 Guineas in only his second season as a trainer.
Stevens is leaning towards the Newmarket showpiece on May 4 as she is more forward than expected, although she also holds entries in both the French and Irish equivalents.
