More on Multis (each way doubles) Morning morning, and Happy Wednesday - or Rens-day - to you. I know this is one of the crappiest weeks in the year (hope you're having a good one, but if you're not, know that virtually all of the rest will be better than this one, so hang in there!)... ...but at least we have the racing to escape into. And, on Wednesdays, that generally means some Dave Renham thought juice. This week features the second part of his look at the maths of multiples, majoring on each way doubles.

By Gordon Brown Nicky Richards is predicting a bright future for They’re Chancers after his strapping 13/2 chance impressed on his debut in the bumper at Ayr. Carrying the colours of borders-based couple Paul and Clare Rooney, he slammed hot-favourite Triple Crown Ted going away by three-lengths in the Start Your Racing TV Free Trial Open National Hunt Flat Race. “He’s a lovely prospect alright and I’ve left plenty to work on so he will come on for the run,” Richards said. “He’s all of 17hh and will be a smashing chaser one day although we won’t be rushing him - I’ve been pretty easy on a lot of our youngsters at home this season. “I’d say will be taking small steps with him wherever he goes next but you will see a real horse when he goes jumping. I honestly thought we would be nearly favourite so it was good performance to give away 7lbs to the second and I’m delighted for his owners as they paid a few quid for him.” Russell had earlier enjoyed better luck when she struck with Patrick Wadge-ridden El Elefante in the racingtv.com/freetrial Novices’ Limited Handicap Chase. The 11/4 second favourite made all the running on her way to an unchallenged five and a half length success over Lunar Discovery.

The 2025 Goffs sale calendar got underway at Doncaster today with the January Sale which offered a day of horses-in-training, NH youngstock and mares. Topping today’s trade was the promising young chaser Peaky Boy (Lot 44). Offered by Seven Barrows, the 7YO son of Kayf Tara has made a fine start to his chasing career, winning his debut at Cheltenham before placing on his most recent start, also at Cheltenham. After being led out of the ring not sold at £195,000, he was subsequently sold privately to O’Neill Racing for an undisclosed, six-figure sum. The horses-in-training session saw Coolmeen Farms offer nine lots with their 5YO Johnny’s Jury (Lot 22) achieving the second highest price of the day. A son of Jukebox Jury and a half-brother to the multiple Grade 1 winner Appreciate it, he placed third on his hurdle debut just prior to the sale and was purchased by Tom Malone and Jamie Snowden for £75,000. Peaky Boy was unsold in the ring but was subsequently sold privately to O’Neill Racing for an undisclosed, six-figure sum. The sale also offered a selection of NH breeding stock and weanlings and the mares were topped by Baroda Stud’s Misty Whisky (Lot 163). Offered on behalf of Distillery Stud, the Listed winning mare was offered in foal to Golden Horn and was purchased by Ashfield House for £60,000. The sale’s NH weanling session was topped by Cobhall Court Stud’s Kapgarde colt (Lot 129). Out of Morena Du Berlais who is a half-sister to the Grade 1 winner Nirvana Du Berlais, he sold to J.P. McGrath Bloodstock for £30,000. Goffs UK Managing Director Tim Kent commented: “The January Sale opens the European sale circuit each year and it has been incredibly satisfying to start the year with some good prices across all categories today. The highlights of the horses-in-training section were the dispersals from Oliver Harris and Coolmeen Farm and it was therefore pleasing to see Johnny’s Jury realise £75,000. Whilst it was disappointing that Peaky Boy did not sell in the ring, we were delighted to get him sold privately for an undisclosed six-figure, sale topping sum, to O'Neill Racing. “The trade for the NH Mares and Foals followed trade at similar sales towards the end of last year. Whilst we were hopeful of sustained demand for this category, there is no denying that trade was selective and it was tough for some breeders. Whilst we can all celebrate the high prices, we recognise the challenging nature of the NH market away from the headlines and how tough it can be if you don’t have exactly what the market wants. The Goffs team worked tirelessly to draw buyers from throughout Europe and as ever, our commitment to UK breeders remains steadfast. We will continue to do everything in our power to create the most vibrant market for every horse sent to us and we will be visiting many breeders over the coming weeks as we look ahead to the Spring Sale in May. “For now, we turn our attention to the Goffs February Sale, which will take place at Kildare paddocks next week on 5 – 6 February.”
