After the gallant victory of Bigirononhiship at Kelso I thought it may be worth exploring Rose Dobbin’s chase stats >>>

Rose Dobbin

As a general point it should be noted that the yard had a torrid time of it last season, with a major virus almost shutting the operation down for a time. They are well and truly through that now.

This does mean that a) some of last season’s form can be ignored – as the horses were not right b) those that did run and underperformed may be well handicapped as a result.

Handicap Chase/Novice Handicap Chase (2014>)

Of some interest… all such runners this year are: 5/23, 9p, +20 BFSP

Odds

The market is seemingly some guide with their handicap chasers >>>

• 4/1< SP: 96 bets / 28 wins / 49p / 29% sr / +9 SP / +15 BFSP / AE 1.08
• Sent off 14/1 or bigger SP: 0/50, 9p

Stamina

Of some note for the future, possibly having missed the boat, it would appear Rose knows how to train a thorough stayer…

• 26f+ : 33 bets / 8 wins / 14p / 24% sr / +19 SP / +25 BFSP / AE 1.59

Distance Move

…she also knows when to step them up in trip…
