Before that, you'll have no doubt seen the devastating news about Stefano Cherchi, who sadly passed away a couple of days ago, after a fall in Australia on the 20th March, aged just 23.
He was apprenticed to Amy Murphy for the last couple of years, rode for our syndicate a few times, rode most of ours in work at some stage, and was always a smiling friendly face every time you went to the yard. He'd always make time for a chat. He had many close friends and my thoughts are with them, his family and colleagues. This can be a heart-wrenching game and a reminder of the dangers jockeys put themselves through for our pleasure. Just horrible. RIP Stefano.
Our Coolree runs this evening in the 8pm Wolves, and with any luck he can win for Stefano, Amy and her team. I don't know for sure that he stays this 9.5f trip and I don't know how he'll take to 1st blinkers... but IF he takes to them and IF he stays (shaped LTO as if worth a go), he should be bang there and with any luck the heart is racing entering the final furlong. But we shall see. He will be better on grass (and was meant to run at Redcar but it was abandoned, so Plan B) but ran well here LTO, his best run for us, and only a matter of time until he wins. This is the sort of AW handicap you could run nine times and get nine different results depending on the pace of the race, how the track rides, the horse's form on the day, their marks and so on. Hopefully it's Coolree's turn today.

April Trainers to Follow?
Looking back at March, and it was a ‘solid if unspectacular’ month for the four trainers highlighted… combined they were 7/36, 12p, +4 BFSP.
That takes the total since Sept 1st to +97 points BFSP. Or +£242.50p to fun £2.50p win bets. Not too shabby! They’re certainly doing the job this season.
These angles are finding winners which, as with any of my stats content, is always aim #1 as it increases the chances of you and I landing on them with ‘subjective puzzle solving eyes’. However I like the ‘monthly angles’ to do well systematically over the course of a season, something fun to follow for small money and interest, without having to do much ‘thinking’. So far, so good
We stride into the last month of the jumps season proper, with four more trainers to keep an eye on…
Hopefully Messrs Paul Nicholls, Fergal O'Brien, Olly Murphy and David Pipe can take the 'monthly trainers' past the +100 points mark for the main jumps season....
