He’s A Knowall Handbook Background Information

Trained by Paul Webber at Cropredy Lawn, near Banbury.

He’s A Knowall is a strapping horse, who is well put together; a classic stamp of a National Hunt horse. He has all of the attributes to become a chaser, with a top-class action and a large galloping stride. Happy and relaxed lobbing along in the string, the evidence of his only run to date is that he’s also bold and assertive when front running, which he did for the last five furlongs of the race. The turn of foot shown was startling and no other runner had an answer.

The catalogue at his December sale at Yorton could not have been more explicit...

“Fourteen horses lined up in division II of the point-to-point bumper run at Barbury, but at the finish there was only one horse in it. He’s A Knowall sprinted clear of the field turning for home, eventually winning by 15 lengths in a time that was ten seconds faster than division I of the race. A good-sized horse who was given time to mature before his debut, he looks ready to start over hurdles and he comes from a family that has shown talents on the Flat and over jumps. There is plenty of speed in the family.”

‘We are very pleased to have this horse for Old Gold Racing.

He is by OSCAR, who has been a leading N.H. sire for years; has amongst his best progeny , , , , Oscar Whiskey and Black Jack Ketchup. He’s A Knowall is bred to be a staying chaser and is a fine, big, strong horse who stands at over 16.2hh already and will thicken out. Oscar’s tend to come in different shapes and sizes, which is unusual for a top sire, but they are tough and stay well.

The dam side of HE’S A KNOWALL’s pedigree is a tough Juddmonte Farms family. Juddmonte Farms family are renowned for their resilience and He’s A Knowall looks to be no different. He’s a solid, sound, staying chaser type. Under the second dam Guillem, you’ll see Guilder who I bought and trained for the Economic Security Partnership (current owners of House Island). Guilder was tough and a great jumper and as I said this a good, staying Juddmonte family.’

Paul's plan is to find a bumper towards the end of February on a galloping track and then a hurdle next season.

by Racing Analyst Ben Merritt

He’s A Knowall is a hard horse to get a firm grip of from a form perspective. However, he could not have made a bigger impression on the eye and, in a race run at a crawl, for the first mile, he had the class about him to put the race to bed in a matter of strides.

In a 14 runner affair there were still eight or nine horses closely bunched up with six furlongs to go but by the half mile point two had upped the ante and put some considerable distance between them and the field. The horse that tried going toe to toe with He’s A Knowall had no match for his speed and stamina, he eventually paid the price finishing fourth and twenty lengths behind this son of Oscar.

There were a full fifteen lengths between this impressive winner and the horse in second, something not often seen in a two mile flat race.

The time of the race, given they crawled early, was very impressive too and he finished a good ten seconds quicker than the winner of the first division, over the same course and distance.

A huge looking horse, he dwarfed his opponents, he is bred for stamina and, as a son of Oscar (who sired the likes of Rock on Ruby, Peddlars Cross, and Paisley Park) one would have to be taken with the speed shown to win a two mile flat race so convincingly. The Dam’s side of the pedigree is loaded with winners up to three miles.

Only time will tell the strength of the form, but the impression given suggests this is a horse with a good future. Bred to be a staying chaser, he ought to pick up plenty of races in all.
