  • JACK ALFRED JAMES WAUGH (K1925-27) the Following Is Taken from the Spring 2000 of Magazine and Is Based on an Obituary That Appe
    JACK ALFRED JAMES WAUGH (K1925-27) The following is taken from the Spring 2000 OF Magazine and is based on an obituary that appeared in the “Racing Times”. He was a leading member of a notable racing dynasty and a trainer in Newmarket for nearly 30 years. Among the best horses he trained during a distinguished career were Derby runner-up Arabian Night, Almiranta, Oncidium, top sprinters Matador and Lucasland and fast two year olds Military Law, Amerigo and Queensbury. He was born on 11 November 1911, the eldest son of trainer R T(Tom) Waugh, who won the 1000 Guineas in 1920 with Cinna and Eleanor, daughter of champion trainer Alfred Hayhoe. He was head lad/assistant to his father from 1927 to 1932 and for the next 7 seasons acted as assistant to Basil Jarvis. After territorial and war service with the Royal Artillery, he was invalided out of the army in 1942 as a result of wounds he received in the raid on Dieppe. He took over the yard of his uncle, Dawson Waugh, at Newmarket in 1943 and his first winner was Response at his home course in April that year. Waugh never won a classic, going closest with Arabian Night who, after running fourth in 2000 Guineas, finished two lengths behind Never Say Die in the 1954 Derby. Waugh also saddled Sanlinea to be third to Scratch in the 1950 St Leger and Star Moss to be a six length second to Ragusa in the 1963 renewal of the Doncaster Classic. Perhaps the most talented horses Waugh trained were Lord Howard de Walden’s pair, Amerigo and Oncidium.

  • Tipster Profile – Ron Hemmings of ARH Racing
    Editor's Welcome We have a great issue for you this month and I'm torn as to which of our articles is the highlight. From Nick Hardman we have a look at the trainers who will surely make you a profit at this year’s Cheltenham Festival. Followed by an interview by a regular guy who has gone from mug punter to serious profit in the space of two years. As well as full details of how he's done that and the services that have provided his winning selections (Nick Hardman features) he also gives some handy tips on how to get on with the bookies and more importantly how to keep your accounts open and unrestricted. We have the first writing of a new column from a pro gambler who diaries at the Secret Betting Club. We have a profile of arguably the best flat jockey ever, certainly the best from my youth. This guy won the Breeders Cup aged 54 just a fortnight after he was released from prison for what was at the time the biggest tax fraud ever. Not that I'm applauding tax fraud, but I am in awe of this performance which came five years after he had retired. I'm of course talking about the great Lester Piggott. And of course we also have all the regular systems, tables and reviews. I hope you enjoy this month’s issue and that it guides you to some winners. All the best Darren Power Cheltenham Pointers 2017 All roads lead to Cheltenham as they say and with that comes a raft of information, tips, trends and selections from the racing industry.
