  • Waiting Patiently Headlines Entries for Thrilling £150,000 G1 Betfair Ascot Chase
    Betfair Media Release for immediate release, Wednesday, January 30, 2019 Waiting Patiently headlines entries for thrilling £150,000 G1 Betfair Ascot Chase Northern-trained superstar Waiting Patiently is among the excellent entries for the £150,000 G1 Betfair Ascot Chase, staged over two miles and five furlongs at Ascot on Saturday, February 16, details of which are revealed today. Waiting Patiently, the 5/4 favourite with Betfair and trained by Ruth Jefferson in Malton, North Yorkshire, came of age in the 2018 G1 Betfair Ascot Chase, when he defeated defending champion Cue Card by just under three lengths to register his first success at the highest level. After missing the rest of last season due to injury, Waiting Patiently has been seen out once this term in the G1 King George VI Chase at Kempton Park on Boxing Day. In what was his first attempt over three miles, he did not have the chance to prove his stamina after being badly hampered and unseating regular rider Brian Hughes at the ninth fence. That was the eight-year-old’s first defeat over fences – he had won his previous six starts over the bigger obstacles. 10-time champion jump trainer Paul Nicholls has won the Betfair Ascot Chase three times, including with the great Kauto Star in 2008, and is going after a record-equalling fourth victory in the G1 race with G1 Melling Chase victor Politologue (5/2) and Cyrname (8/1), an impressive course and distance winner last time out. Politologue defeated Charbel (Kim Bailey, 10/1) narrowly in the G2 Christy 1965 Chase over the course and distance at Ascot in November before finishing fourth in the G1 King George VI Chase, while Cyrname galloped his rivals into the ground when taking a valuable handicap chase at Ascot by 21 lengths on January 19 under Harry Cobden.

  • Continuity and Diversity in Nineteenth Century and Contemporary Racehorse Training
    Continuity and Diversity in Nineteenth Century and Contemporary Racehorse Training Laura Jayne Westgarth Manchester Metropolitan University Thesis presented in fulfilment of an MA by Research September 2014 2 Continuity and Diversity in Nineteenth Century and Contemporary Racehorse Training Abstract: This thesis explores stability and diversity in the approaches taken to training National Hunt racehorses by nineteenth-century trainers and those of the modern day. The work first explores horseracing as a sport in the nineteenth and early twentieth century, including consideration of social class, gambling, and the structures surrounding horseracing, particularly the operation of the Jockey Club, as a means of establishing the way in which horseracing operated in this period. This part of the thesis also explains how racing employees operated, the costs of training, and how the role of the trainer evolved from grooms training for their employer into that of public trainers with large racing yards. This section is followed by consideration of the training methods employed during the nineteenth century, with a focus on the practices of purging, sweating, exercise, diet, and physicing, as well as explaining how racing yards were managed. The key research findings of the thesis are then presented in two chapters, the first of which discusses the way in which 'communities of practice' have operated in training stables, both in the context of the nineteenth century and in the context of contemporary racing. These 'communities' allow the passing on of knowledge through generations of racing trainers, through kinship as well as through close working relationships. Some biographical examples of both historical and contemporary trainers and their kinship groups/communities are presented.
