First time headgear

I started a thread about it earlier as I had read about it working last year

Didn't see it, and don't get me wrong I ain't taking credit for it I saw the stat somewhere last week. Was just pointing out where it had applied today.

Art Of Logistics & Close House apply in the last. No doubt now it's got my full attention it will fail

Thats what I thought before the CHdl and did not back Jezki

What fits this trend today then? Certification in the Fred Winter does but not sure about anything else?

There are a few more. Creepy 1.30, 2.40 Ifandbutwhynot, 34.40 Orgilgo Bay, Ballyglasheen.
Quite a few in first time cheek pieces inc Sizing Europe but I don't think these count towards the Paul Jones stat

Nah think it's just blinkers or hood mate

Carole's Spirit first time blinkers in the Mares race ... any others?

Paul Jones did well to pick this up in 2014. Afterwards he admitted that he hadn't touched Western Warhorse as he thought he'd still have no chance!

Just about to set off for day one………..This website lists all the first time head gear users. Good luck to all. May the racing Gods and the weather be with us all.

Doing Fine in the NH Chase.

Rebecca Curtis has a very impressive uplift (stop s****ing at the back!) when applying headgear for the first time and does well with her stayers.

Does the stat / good record apply only to blinkers and hoods?

What about cheekpieces and tonuestraps? They probably don't bring about as much improvement anyway.

Killala Quay in the last, has first time cheek pieces!

all aboard

does monkey kingdom not have 1st time headgear in last?

Also, as i see it the following:

14.40: Shangani (B)
16.00: Caroles Spirit (B)
16:40: Doing Fine & Return Spring (B)
17:15: Monkey Kingdom (H)
