FUSIL RAFFLES

LAST TIME OUT | Saturday 30th October Charlie Hall Chase day saw a big crowd gather on Saturday 30th October for the highlight fixture of the season, with the feature 3m contest one of two Grade 2 events on the seven-race card.

The bet365 Charlie Hall Chase saw seven go to post, headed by last year’s impressive winner Cyrname for Paul Nicholls and Harry Cobden.

However, having been a short-priced favourite to repeat his victory in the days leading up to the £100,000 contest, the nine-year-old was once again weak in the betting in the build up to the race as support came instead for second-season chasers Kitty’s Light, Fusil Raffles and, in particular, Shan Blue.

The latter eventually went off the 2/1 favourite and the market support looked to be justified as the Skelton’s seven-year-old gelding breezed past the long-time leader Cyrname on the home bend and quickly opened up an unassailable lead before taking a crashing fall three out with the race at his mercy.

Both Dan Skelton and Shan Blue were soon back on their feet but could do nothing more than watch Fusil Raffles and partner Daryl Jacob stay on best of the rest to beat Kitty’s Light by a little over four lengths, giving trainer Nicky Henderson just his second ever win in the race.

The other Grade 2 on the card also went the way of Daryl Jacob, as he successfully partnered the likeable mare Indefatigable to land the bet365 Hurdle in far less fortunate circumstances for trainer Paul Webber.

The 3m contest, also known as the West Yorkshire Hurdle, also saw the return of the 2019 Stayers’ Hurdle winner Paisley Park. But, having been outpaced and pushed along at various stages, the nine-year-old could only manage a

staying-on third, with the Skelton’s Proschema splitting Emma Lavelle’s charge and the winner, who could now be aimed at Newbury’s Long Distance Hurdle at the end of the month.

The Skelton’s had enjoyed Listed success earlier in the afternoon, however, when their likeable mare Molly Ollys Wishes landed the bet365 Mares’ Hurdle in commanding fashion, beating the Paul Nicholls-trained Miranda by five-anda-half lengths. In remarkably similar fashion to what would transpire just an hour or so later in the Charlie Hall, Harry Skelton cruised upsides the leader Fiveandtwenty rounding the home bend before putting the race to bed in a matter of strides straightening for home, with his partner this time securing the victory with three nimble jumps.

A second victory aboard Soyouthinksoagain in the final race of the day, the 3m Price Promise At bet365 Handicap Chase, may not have been enough to fully heal their Charlie Hall scars, but it did at least bring up a double for the Skelton team.

The bet365 Handicap Hurdle went the way of Pam Sly and 5lb-claimer Jack Andrews as Haafapiece battled gamely to fend off handicap debutant Our Surprise by a little over a length, while Tamar Bridge ran out an impressive 13-length winner of the bet365 Novices’ Hurdle to give the in-form Olly Murphy a 1-2 in the race, with Adrian Heskin steering the winner home to beat stablemate Storm Of Light.

The opening 2m3f bet365 Handicap Chase went the way of 40-1 shot Geryville for trainer Micky Hammond, with Alain Cawley timing his run to perfection in guiding his mount to a 12-length success.

Star Ratings Explained

Each horse has been given a star rating, these are defined below: HHHHH Selected to win the race.

HHHHI Good chance of being placed.

HHHII By no means out of the reckoning but at least one or two hold stronger claims.

HHIII Unlikely to win but not totally without hope.

HIIII Can be given little or no chance.

Official BHA Rating The BHA Handicappers allot ratings to horses once they have taken part in a sufficient number of races to enable the Handicappers to make a numerical assessment of each horse’s ability.

The principal purpose of the ratings is to determine the weight to be carried by each runner in handicap races, with the Handicappers aiming to provide each participant with an equal chance based on its best recent form under its optimum conditions.

A horse rated 100, for example, would be set to carry 1lb more than a horse rated 99 (ignoring any penalties or allowances).

Form Guide The figures in red display the horse’s previous form, with the number denoting finishing position. The number on the right shows the runners most recent result, with abbreviations used also. A layoff from racing is shown with either - or /.

CD - Course and distance winner; BF - Beaten favourite; F - Fell; B - Brought down; P - Pulled up; R - Refused; S - Slipped up; U - Unseated rider; R - Ran out.

The form guide is provided to help you pick which horse will carry your money in the race. Read the Timeform comment carefully and try to weigh up the horse’s previous runs against the conditions of the race.

THE BUZZ

by Wetherbee

RACE ONE

COBBLERS DREAM won impressively on his hurdling debut at Warwick in September and he was not disgraced in a Listed event at Kempton last time. A reproduction of either of those efforts today would give the son of Yeats a big chance. Thunder Rock bumped into a useful prospect at Newton Abbot last time and he should be in the mix once again, while Grand Du Nord and Adjournment complete the shortlist.

WIN: COBBLERS DREAM

DANGER: Thunder Rock

RACE TWO

A case can be made for all of these but preference is for CORNERSTONE LAD, who was a Grade 1-winning hurdler a couple of seasons ago. The seven-year-old hit the crossbar twice over fences last season and he confirmed his well-being with an encouraging run on the Flat earlier in the month. Magic Dancer bolted up at Worcester two starts ago and he should not be discounted.FastBuckandFranshambothhavequestionstoanswerbut they alsohaveclaimsbasedonthepickoftheirform.

WIN: CORNERSTONE LAD

DANGER: Magic Dancer

RACE THREE

SOLO SAXOPHONE bounced back to form when winning over 2m on the Flat at Newmarket late last month and he was useful hurdler a couple of seasons ago. The son of Frankel appears to be the safest pick in a wide-open contest. That said, Floki looked to have a bright future when last seen back in 2019 and he should not be discounted on his return to action. Earlofthecotswolds edges out Weebill to be the pick of the remainder.

WIN: SOLO SAXOPHONE

DANGER: Floki

RACE FOUR

NORTHERN BOUND has taken his form to a higher level since reverting to fences in September, posting a hat-trick of wins, including when scoring with loads in hand at Kelso three weeks ago. The seven-year-old is tipped to take this step up in grade in his stride and can get the better of Cracking Destiny, who performed with great credit when finishing second over course and distance on his latest start. Return Ticket is back at the scene of his most recent win and cannot be dismissed.

WIN: NORTHERN BOUND

DANGER: Cracking Destiny

RACE FIVE

The Dan Skelton-trained LAKOTA WARRIOR looks the type to benefit significantly from his comeback run at Aintree last month, where he made headway before tiring in the latter stages, and the five-year-old is narrowly favoured in a tightly-knit affair. Sauce Of Life boasts a perfect record in bumpers and warrants the utmost respect now switching to hurdling, while Largy Reach shaped well on his first start for this yard and may also feature.

WIN: LAKOTA WARRIOR

DANGER: Sauce Of Life

RACE SIX

Saint Arvans seemed to win with a bit in hand when getting the better of Champagne City (second) over C&D last month, but a 2lb swing in favour of the latter can edge things closer here. The verdict is for the relatively unexposed FIRST IMPRESSION, though, who shaped well on the level at Redcar most recently. An easy winner over C&D last November and fifth in a valuable handicap hurdle at Ascot subsequently, Brian Hughes’ mount could have more to offer.

WIN: FIRST IMPRESSION

DANGER: Champagne City

RACE SEVEN

It hasn’t taken long for FRAU GEORGIA to find her rhythm over fences as an impressive Perth success in September was followed by a very creditable second at Worcester last time. With conditions to suit here, she can resume her progression while fending off the challenge of recent Ayr winner Event Of Sivola, who has only been raised 1lb. Muckamore didn’t show a whole lot over fences last season but he remains well handicapped on his hurdles form.

WIN: FRAU GEORGIA

DANGER: Event Of Sivola

RACE DESCRIPTION Novice races tend to be for younger horses that are still learning their way over hurdles or fences and allow them to race against each other before graduating up the ranks. Horses are classed as a novice if they have yet to win a race, under the respective code, prior to the official start of the season, towards the end of April although for wins between 1st March and the end of the season they may continue to contest novice races until the end of the following October. This particular two miles and four furlongs novices’ hurdle race is for horses aged four-years-old and upwards.

THE GEOFF SMITH POOR COUNTRY JOINER HANDICAP STEEPLE CHASE (CLASS 3) for four yrs old and upwards x Total race value £14000

Owners Prize Money. Winner £5258; Second £2630; Third £1314; Fourth £658; Fifth £280; Sixth £280; Seventh £280; Eighth £280. (Penalty Value £6861.96) Weights raised 1lb and paragraph 34 of the Weights and Handicapping Code complied with where applicable.

FORM ANALYSIS - A CLOSER LOOK | FACTS | FANCIES | FORM | STATS | Leading course trainer (16-21): D Skelton (46 wins from 165 runners, 28%) runs MARRACUDJA Trainer-in-form (last 14 days): D Skelton (11 wins from 68 runners, 16%) runs MARRACUDJA Longest Traveller: CRACKING DESTINY trained by E Whillans, Hawick, 196 miles.

RACE DESCRIPTION This is a two miles and three and a half furlongs handicap steeple chase for four-yearolds and upwards which have been rated from 0 to 140. In a handicap the weight that each of the runners carries is determined by their official handicap rating which is based on their level of form shown so far. The aim is to ensure competitive racing by asking the higher rated horses to carry more weight than lower rated rival. As a guide, horses rated 0 tend to be at the lower end of the scale whilst the very best performers would be rated as high as 140.

PLAY SMARTER

NORTHERN BOUND was value for extra over the winning margin when completing a chase hat-trick at Kelso 2 weeks ago and a subsequent weight rise may not prevent another bold bid on that evidence. Cracking Destiny similarly arrives in good form and can feature, along with Schiehallion Munro. Palmers Hill needs monitoring in the market on return.

The Friends and Family of Geoff Smith

Geoff Smith was affectionately known as the Poor Country Joiner because of his love of feigning poverty to his friends and family.

This race is in celebration of Geoff’s life; he sadly passed away earlier this year.

Geoff’s friends and family are here today to enjoy a day’s racing in his memory. He had a life long passion for racing and spent his racing days shouting the winners home from the stand and then celebrating appropriately afterwards at the bar!

RACE DESCRIPTION This is a two mile handicap hurdle race for three-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 0 to 140. Once a horse has qualified for a handicap rating this is regularly reassessed.

A below-par effort could result in a reduced rating whilst a strong performance could see the rating increased. Occasionally, horses are entered to race before their handicap rating has been reviewed and so to avoid recent winners being un-penalised they are allotted a mandatory penalty – usually 7lb.

The pair at the bottom of the weights could be the ones worth focusing on here, with FIRST IMPRESSION getting the vote to come out on top. John Quinn’s charge returned to form when runner-up at Redcar 11 days ago and, switching back over hurdles, he can double his tally over this C&D. Saint Arvans and Champagne City finished first and second here just over a fortnight ago so they rate the dangers.

Longest Traveller: FRAU GEORGIA trained by N Mulholland, Limpley Stoke, 231 miles.

RACE DESCRIPTION This three miles, forty five yards handicap steeple chase has been designed for four-year-olds and upwards which are rated from 0 to 120. In most National Hunt handicaps, there is a minimum weight of 10st so any horse whose official rating would allocate them less than that still has to shoulder that burden. The horses that fall into this category are said to be racing from ‘out of the handicap’ – usually a distinct disadvantage.

FRAU GEORGIA is going the right way over fences and this might not take much winning, so she’s a confident choice to add to her tally. Event of Sivola shouldn’t be far away, and the reappearing Grand Turina is worth a mention under a 10-lb claimer.
