Doubles all round in East Anglia

1/17/2022

 
Bradley Gibbs and Julian Sherriff were busy at Higham over the weekend, scoring a double as Gibbs applied pressure to his rivals in the race for the Riders Championship. 
Higham's second fixture enjoyed a better patronage than the opener, with 51 runners over the 7 races. And Gibbs is earning himself the same reputation as the punters' choice as one L Piggott 30 years ago. Just about everything he rides is likely to start favourite.
He set the scene for the day when 8/11 favourite Fier Jaguen proved an 8l winner in the Intermediate, a prompt follow up to his Chaddesley win at the Harkaway. Meanwhile Whotheman ran out an evens favourite in division one of the Maiden, 1 1/2l in front of Immy Marshall on Some Boy McCoy. 
​
Just two winners separate the three leading riders at the head of the championship, led by Will Biddick on 11, with Gibbs and Tommie O'Brien on 9 each. 
Meanwhile under Rules, another East Anglian is heading for her best ever season. Lucy Wadham's 24 winners in the 2020-21 season netted the stable £248,209, a personal best. After a double at Fakenham today, the 16 winners have netted £177,564. 
​Somekindofstar held off Sean Curran's Doukarov in the 2m handicap chase, whilst 5 year old Mistral Nell made a winning debut in the bumper. That makes 10 individual winners from the yard that is Newmarket's leading Jumps stable.
