PicksfromthePaddock.co.uk with their horses to follow
Let Right Be Done (6yo)
Trainer: Linda Perratt
Last Run: 15th October With two runs this past month the six year old has been mightily disappointing. Despite this however the horse now resides on a very attractive handicap mark and claimed a victory around this time last year. If you see him set to race over his preferred seven furlong trip before the season draws to a close make sure you take advantage of a horse that is bound to be a good price.
Distance: 7f Ground Preference: Any
Thyme Hill (4yo)
Trainer: Philip Hobbs
Last Run: 11th October With just one run to his name the Philip Hobbs trained gelding won impressively on his racecourse debut to win a national hunt flat race at Worcester. How good the race is will certainly be up for debate but representing decent connections he deserves a tonne of respect. If he goes over hurdles or remains on the flat it won't be an inconvenience either way
Castletown Quary (5yo)
so stick with this promising youngster. Distance: 2m - 2m4f Ground Preference: Any Trainer: Eoin Griffin
Last Run: 1st October Although very green and all over the place the gelding looked very impressive to claim a win in his second National Hunt Flat Race at Roscommon. A winner by over 6 lengths that day it’s perhaps a bit hard to know just how good the form of that run truly is but with representatives from top stables such as Gordon Elliott, Willie Mullins and Noel Meade all in the lineup you have to take some hope that the 15 runner race he won could be better than it perhaps looks on paper. It’s reasonable to presume he’ll stay on the level and not tackle an obstacle just yet but this lesser known contender could be the horse that puts trainer Eoin Griffin on the map. Distance: 2m - 2m4f Ground Preference: Any
Proud And Elated (3yo)
Trainer: Joseph O'Brien
Last Run: 12th October After an 82 day layoff she made her return to action with an encouraging 4th placed finish. Finishing well from a wide draw gave an indication that a step up in trip is likely to be of benefit and despite being an 11 race maiden another promising effort should be around the corner especially if she continues to be campaigned on the all-weather this winter.
Distance: 1m+ Ground Preference: Any
Finoah (2yo)
Trainer: Tom Dascombe
Last Run: 6th October Despite never tasting victory in 9 races to date this youngster put in an eyecatching effort to finish 5th of 21 runners in this years Two Year Old Trophy. The likelihood is he's not going to be seen again this term but may be one worth noting if he continues racing next year.
Distance: Any Ground Preference: Any
