“Red-Hot Ben Clarke Rides a Wave of Success with a 275-1 Double Win”
In the months of October, November, and December, Clarke’s yard had only two wins out of 28 runners. However, their recent performance has been impressive, with the stable operating at a 50 percent success rate in the last two weeks. Clarke expressed relief at their current red-hot form and commented on their recent fortunate win with Good Friday Fairy at Uttoxeter.
At the Winter Million, they secured a victory in a photo-finish, and their filly, Ooh Betty, showed promise and will be competing in a Grade 2 race at Sandown next month. Clarke acknowledged the recent turnaround in their performance, despite struggling a few weeks ago.
Bobalot made a triumphant return to hurdles after previously competing over fences, and Risk De Pluie made a successful rules debut following several point-to-point races. Clarke expressed confidence in Risk De Pluie’s performance and was pleased to see the potential they had observed on the track.
Overall, the recent weeks have been good for Clarke’s yard despite a challenging period.
