It is another big jumps racing week with the Newbury Hennessy meeting the UK highlight.
We have Hennessy Gold Cup Stats and a dedicated Hennessy Gold Cup thread on the forum. We also had a look at the stats for the Long Distance Hurdle – Big Bucks goes for four in a row in that race.
The Hennessy meeting kicks off on Thursday and we have stats for that days Grade 2 Worcester Novices Chase over three miles and the following days Grade 2 Berksire Novice’s Chase over a shorter 2 miles 4 furlongs. Last years RSA winner Bobs Worth won the 2011 Berkshire and entries this year include exciting novices Dynaste and Fingal Bay.
The Grade 1 Fighting Fifth Hurdle is due to be run at Newcastle on Saturday but that along with Fairyhouse’s big Sunday card might need a break in the weather to proceed.
