News in Brief
Palace Pier tops Horse of the Year standings
Palace Pier has gained a narrow lead at the top of the table to be crowned Cartier Horse of the Year despite his defeat behind Baaeed in the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes on Champions Day at Ascot last Saturday. Trueshan (84) maintained his lead in the Stayer division after winning the Long Distance Cup for the second year in succession, with his old rival Stradivarius – who finished third behind the Alan King-trained star at the Berkshire track – in joint-second alongside Gold Cup winner Subjectivist (60).
Hollie Doyle rides 150th winner of the season
Hollie Doyle continued her remarkable season by landing her 150th winner of the year on the Richard Spencer trained-Space Cowboy. Doyle made all to land the 6f conditions stakes, the first fast-track qualifier of the season.
Racehorses prohibited from entering human food chain from next year
All horses who are entered to race in Britain will not be allowed to be sent to abattoirs to become a part of the human food chain from January in a major rule change by the BHA.
RECENT LAMBOURN WINNERS
Thunder Ahead
Harry DunlopThunder Ahead has an each-way chance with cheekpieces.
Lil Guff
Daniel & Claire KüblerGame filly who runs her race and should be in the mix as she has been all season, handles most conditions and nothing stands out as being miles ahead of her ability wise on form shown to date.
Buzz
Nicky HendersonHe's in good form but I wouldn't want it to dry up too much. He had some good form on the Flat and he proved at the backend of last season [over hurdles] that he does stay well.
Lake Sand
Ali StrongeDidn’t run too bad last time when we dropped him out. We will try different riding tactics today by running him forward. This is quite a competitive race for the grade, but fingers crossed he can run a solid race.
