Weekly Eye Catchers


Hi Reader

A dramatic weekend of racing action just passed.

Constitution Hill and The New Lion fell in the Fighting Fifth.

Wendigo and Romeo Coolio impressed in the novice chase division. Teahupoo and Ballyburn are rightly at the top of the Stayers hurdle market having fought out a great finish in the Hatton's Grace Hurdle at Fairyhouse.

I picked out two horses this week that finished second in handicaps at Newbury.

Check out eye catchers for this week below:

Leader In The Park

Leader in The Park - 2nd in 12.30 Newbury 29/11/25

Leader In The Park is the horse to take from the Sir Peter O’Sullivan Memorial Handicap Chase. Like the winner Booster Bob it was Leader In The Park’s first run of the season. This horse is a natural jumper over fences and it was only the final fifty yards that he tired badly. It was an encouraging run over two miles, six and a half furlongs.

I had him down as a two and a half miller on a flat course. He looks to have matured and settled better in this race compared to last season. The handicapper has raised him two pounds to 130 which is fine. A handicap chase at Kempton at Christmas over two and a half miles would be ideal. It would allow Ben Jones to really fire him at the fences.

Guard Duty

Guard Duty - 2nd in 1.40 Newbury 29/11/25

Guard Duty was ridden out the back yet made up a huge amount of ground to get involved after the final hurdle. French Ship who won nicely was pounds ahead of the handicapper so we can mark up this run by Guard Duty. He likes flat courses and needs the runners to go hard up front to allow him reel them in.

I can see this horse taking aim at some good handicap hurdles over the winter at courses like Kempton, Windsor & Aintree. On this run it would be worth trying him over even further than two and a half miles. A five pound hike by the handicapper to 139 is touch when second but deserved following his eye-catching run.

Hi Reader Two new eye catchers for November. Check out eye catchers for this week below: View Eye Catchers List Here Irish Panther Irish Panther - 1st in 3.37 Naas 09/11/25 Irish Panther is going to reach a much higher level over fences than hurdles. He did well over hurdles last season. He finished third in listed handicap hurdles at the Dublin and Punchestown Festivals. Irish Panther returned this season with an easy win over hurdles at Clonmel. That win at Clonmel was impressive but not as...
