Uncle O is Hobson's choice at Rasen7/5/2021 Clare Hobson is one of that growing band of professional horsemen and women who learned their trade in the Point-to-Point field. She now runs a breaking and training yard outside Royston in Hertfordshire.
During a riding career, she was no slouch, pushing home 11 winners from 116 starts between 2007-14. She continued training as well until 2016, combining this with a full training licence from 2011. Yesterday, she teamed up with another graduate from the Pointing ranks, in Tabitha Worsley, to produce Uncle O to win the John Matthew Memorial Novices Handicap Chase at Market Rasen, her first winner of the new term from just 6 runners to date. And crikey, if every winner was that close, you'd be hairless before a season was out. Uncle O had to fight every inch of the run-in to beat Christopher Kellett's BeGoodToYourself by a head. More evidence that the racing backwater that is Hertfordshire still has plenty to offer. Comments are closed.
