Hurdle Champion takes to the track on the open course, Richard Hannon aiming to boost Chelmsford's impressive streak, and a question about Queen's potential reign once more.
British Racing Preview: Key Horses and Trainers to Watch
In the upcoming races, several horses and trainers are worth keeping an eye on.
Dinamo, trained by Karl Burke, is currently in good form. The two-year-old filly recently won at Thirsk and finished fourth at Leicester. Burke's runner is set to compete in the 5f nursery at Beverley, where Burke continues to enjoy strong juvenile success. Pierre-Louis Jamin will be in the saddle once again [1][2][3].
Left Over Love, trained by Richard Hannon, has shown mixed form lately, but the three-year-old filly performed well earlier on the all-weather, including a win at Southwell. She is returning to an artificial surface for a 6f handicap at Chelmsford, and Hannon believes the drop back to six furlongs will suit her better, indicating she is "much better than she's shown this season" [1].
Chilli Queen, trained by Emma Lavelle, has been raising eyebrows with her impressive form. The filly joined Lavelle from Andrew Balding in March and has since thrived, achieving all three of her wins over 1m4f. Chilli Queen has been raised 5lb for her latest success and will be seeking her fourth win in a row in the 1m4f fillies' handicap at Salisbury [4].
Paddy Twomey has found success at Cork this season, sending out seven winners from just 16 runners. One of his horses, Super Sox, is a course-and-distance winner and is entered in the Listed 7f contest at Cork [5].
James Owen has had a successful season at Beverley, with a 4-6 record in track handicaps. His horse, Chillhi, will compete in the 2m handicap at Beverley [7].
Winter Fog, a Champion Hurdle third, is bidding for a first Flat win in the 2m maiden (8.05) for lady amateurs at Tramore. The horse has had a busy season, finishing 11th in the Galway Hurdle after placing behind Golden Ace in the Champion Hurdle at Cheltenham in March [6].
Meanwhile, Jerrari, trained by Jessica Harrington, is aiming for a hat-trick in a race at Tramore, despite never racing at the track before. The horse is in good form, having recorded back-to-back victories before its recent Flat runs [9].
Lastly, Expound, trained by an unspecified trainer, has recorded back-to-back victories before its recent Flat runs. The horse is returning to the jumps under Daniel King in the 2m handicap hurdle (6.35) at Tramore, after four runs on the Flat [8].
These horses and trainers are ones to watch in the upcoming races, with each offering potential for strong performances.
