December is always a great month for National Huntsman Racing. King George at Kempton, the Country of Wales at Chepstow and The Chase of Savills at Leopardstown headline some of the year’s best acts. While looking for suggestions for horse racing tips This month, we dug into the stats to find 3 trainers to track in December.
Nicky Henderson
One of the largest pitches in the country by volume but has significantly supported all of Henderson’s athletes in December for the past four years will generate a share return at +52.86 pounds. That huge profit from the 332 runners is a significant effort for a course that has enjoyed their glaring success this time of year.
The 29% hit rate over the fence made up for the bulk of that, while rushing the 24% clip winner also didn’t get sniffed over the fence. The number of athletes running in the collision was already 5/20 in that four-year period, although in 2019 and 2020 combined, the course was 5/11 in December given their bumper number of runners. It will be interesting to see if that level continues into 2021.
Sandy Thomson
A Scottish yard is very undervalued and one has been making profits year after year in December. The past four years have seen a record 17/74 in December for equity-grade returns of + £41.25. Although not recommended, Thomson’s backing of blind horses has made a profit each year from 2017-2020.
One of the coolest runners in the barn these days is Hill Sixteen. Three of his top four RPRs went on soft or heavy ground, shaping well for the long haul in his first run for the field before blasting, up the hill in Carlisle.
The 132 score needs a few pounds to make it into the Wales national team but with a visit to Becher and Borders National this weekend, he can prove his stamina and get the boost he needs in one shot. . He is a horse that has long threatened to prove he is better than he shows and Thomson is the right man to take that off him. The 40/1 scoreline for the Wales international will be far behind if he gets his shot on target on Saturday or Sunday.
Iain Jardine
A yard will not have many people chasing. Only ten of the last four December combined but they are well worth the search. Four out of ten took the lead to achieve a stake return of +19.50 pounds.
Jardine has an attack rate of 16% with all his players running in pursuit over the past five seasons combined, more than double the level that in December had to put him on the must-do list. monitor. Wetherby, Newcastle and Kelso are places where hunting him down is particularly fun. The person named first had a two-day meeting over Christmas so it’s worth remembering.
