ON THE CLOCK Testing conditions put a premium on stamina and fitness at Alnwick – and the last three winners on the card all demonstrated the benefit of having already had an outing this season. With this in mind it was noticeable that the main contests on the card were steadily run and there will be more to come from Wild Romance, who did not need to run close to his best rules form to land the Conditions, and Sine Nominee, who looked slightly backward beforehand in the Open. However there have been some competitive, strongly run maidens this Autumn and the opening young horse contest was another. This featured Occupied Territory (89), a newcomer from the Tom Ellis yard – strongly expected to go in at the first time of asking. In the event he had to give second best to Foxylee (95), a newcomer from the Irish points field. Kelly Morgan’s mare was not winning out of turn, having twice finished runner-up when sent of favourite on her last two outings in Ireland and looks sure to give her enthusiastic rider further success this season . There will be other days for Occupied Territory too. He gave the impression that step up in trip might be beneficial, a view in accord with his pedigree, his dam being a half-sister to the strong staying Tricky Trickster. Third placed Red Delta (89) gives the form of this maiden race a solid look whilst the fourth placing of Bentley Road (89) was a marked step up on his one, non-finishing, outing in Ireland. Both should lose their maiden tags before too long.

RATCHEUGH RACING CLUB, ALNWICK, SUNDAY 17 DECEMBER 2023 By Peter Burgon
James King made his first visit to Alnwick one to remember with a treble on the Max Comley-trained geldings Wagner, Jay Bee Whiskey and Burtown at the Ratcheugh Racing Club fixture on Sunday. After going under by a length to Captain Woodie on his reappearance at Badbury Rings five weeks ago, Wagner went one better in the PJR Blewitt Ltd Men’s Open Race. Always close up before hitting the front four out, the eight-year-old stayed on well down the home straight to beat odds-on favourite Sine Nomine (John Dawson) by three lengths. Comley, who has 25 horses in training at his Naunton yard near Cheltenham, said: “He was knocking at the door on most of his Pointing runs last season, so it’s great for him to get his head in front again in Open company.” Last month’s Badbury Rings Maiden winner Jay Bee Whiskey followed up in style as he turned the closing stages of the Sharpley Golf Restricted Race into a procession,
forging clear from three out to score by an eased down twenty lengths from Monknash (John Dawson). Comley said: “He showed the benefit of a previous run and is a different horse to last season. The Intermediate Final at Cheltenham’s Hunter Chase meeting in May would be the long term aim if he continues to progress.” A red letter day for King and Comley was completed by Burtown’s victory in the 3m Country Food Trust Maiden Race in which the last three fences were omitted due to the low sun. Sent on a mile from home, the six-year-old was out on his own at the top of the hill approaching three out and, despite getting a bit lonely in front, kept on well to beat the promising Whatsgoingon (Joe Wright) by five lengths.
#gopointing 12
Comley said: “The winner is owned by my landlord Neil O’Hara who bought him privately in Ireland earlier this year after he had finished runner-up at Lisronagh. I’d never even had a double before, so this is extra special and I’ll probably make the 580-mile round trip again for one of the January meetings.” Comley has made a great start to the new campaign with 5 winners from 9 runners, while the treble took King’s career tally between the flags to 195, including 8 this season, and he has also ridden 50 winners under Rules. At the other end of the scale, 18-year-old Shay Halton’s first Pointing ride on 127-rated hurdler Wild Romance was a winning one in the 10-runner Ratcheugh Racing Club Conditions Race. In receipt of 7lb from her rivals, the eight-year-old found another gear from the last where he was still two lengths down to edge in front on the line and snatch a short head verdict over the gallant Bintheredonethat ridden by another debutante Eloise Justice-Vose.
www.pointtopoint.co.uk
This was also a first training success with his first runner for Simon Olley, assistant trainer at Philip Kirby’s East Appleton yard near Catterick. The former Dan Skelton-trained winner had previously finished three lengths 2nd to Does He Know in the Grade 2 Ballymore Novices’ Hurdle at Cheltenham in November 2020 but was then off the track for 743 days before failing to deliver in four subsequent outings over fences. Now owned by Halton’s father Rick, he was bought for £13,000 at Goffs UK Doncaster Sale in May. Coincidentally, Shay’s first ride on the Flat was also a winner. He steered the Philip Kirbytrained Brillian to victory in a 6f contest at Chelmsford on May 11 and at 8st7lb definitely has no weight issues. Halton, who has been based with Kirby for two years, said: “I thought she might need the run but apart from a mistake at the final ditch (seven out) she jumped and travelled well. She came back on the bridle coming up the hill to three out and seems well suited by a test of stamina.”
Former Irish pointer Foxylee made her experience count with a pillar to post success in the 2m4f Goffs Young Horse Series Maiden Race for four & five-year-olds. Confidently ridden by equine vet Tom Chatfeild-Roberts, the five-year-old was always in her comfort zone at the head of affairs and repelled all challengers down the home straight to score by seven lengths from odds-on favourite Occupied Territory (Jack Andrews), with Red Delta (John Dawson) and Bentley Road (Lyall Hodgins) a head and short head away in 3rd and 4th respectively. Waltham-on-the-Wolds trainer Kelly Morgan loves her trips up the A1 to Alnwick and Foxylee was her 7th winner from 10 runners at the track in the last two years.
Few horses in the North can match the consistency of Ballydonagh Boy over the last two years and the admirable nine-year-old delivered again with a gutsy front-running performance in the Newton Hall Ladies Open Race. Under a positive ride from Rosie Howarth, he maintained a relentless gallop and never looked like being caught from three out. Keeping on well up the run-in, he still had three lengths to spare over the fast-finishing Cash Again (Becca Shepherd) at the line. This was Howarth’s 20th career winner, including 2 under Rules, and a return visit to Alnwick with Ballydonagh Boy on January 7 is on the cards.
The Mahler mare was bought for £20,000 at Goffs UK Doncaster Sale in May after finishing runner-up on both starts between the flags in Ireland last season. Her dam Adderstonlee ran three times as a five-year-old in the Northern Area in 2013 from Alastair Bell’s Hawick yard and had form figures of P3P.

TAKE PART IN THE 2023 THOROUGHBRED CENSUS Britain’s first ever thoroughbred census – carried out by equine research experts at hartpury university –has been launched to help improve traceability of former racehorses after they retire from the sport. All owners of former racehorses will be encouraged to complete and submit the census by 31st december 2023 and the data will be used to build a wealth of intelligence on the lives former racehorses go on to lead. The initiative is part of british racing’s horse welfare board’s five-year welfare strategy ‘a life well lived’ and has been launched in partnership with retraining of racehorses (ror), british racing’s official aftercare charity, funded by the racing foundation, and is supported by world horse welfare and weatherbys general stud book. David catlow, managing director, retraining of racehorses, added: “we are pleased to be teaming up with the horse welfare board and hartpury university to encourage owners of former racehorses to participate in the census survey. The ‘social licence’ for the use of horses in sport is under increasing scrutiny and what happens to former racehorses after they retire from racing is identified as a particular concern. This is a significant step towards ensuring thoroughbreds enjoy a healthy and caring existence during their lifetimes and will provide the racing industry with the relevant data to guide future decisions”. The census can be completed online here and an introductory video about the census can be viewed here
