Toby Lawes gears up for a successful weekend with a winning mindset
The bumper winner had previously lost in all three of his hurdle starts this season. However, with the help of jockey Tom Cannon and following wind surgery, he justified his position as the 11-10 favorite in the 2m1f novice handicap. Despite his previous defeats, there was confidence in his ability due to his successful bumper record. The trainer expressed his satisfaction with the horse’s performance in training and looked forward to competing in races of such caliber.
Surrey Quest, who had previously been trained by Nicky Henderson before joining the team led by Lawes, had won both of his races since the switch. He was given odds of 10-1 to secure a hat-trick of wins. The trainer spoke about the excitement within the team and their positive outlook for the upcoming race. The horse had shown promise as a novice hurdler, and his progression was seen as natural due to his starting mark.
Tom Cannon had a successful day, completing a double on Larry, a horse trained by Gary Moore. The 3m1½f handicap chase was the feature race of the day. It is worth noting that Racing Post offers the best deals, conveniently available in one place.
