Resonate was indeed trained by M Jarvis but last time it ran in a Handicap for him finished
24th of 30 so he dropped it to a claimer where it beat a horse rated 20lbs inferior a shd. True it dropped from 79 to 65 before it won for Tony but the horse was still badly handicapped when he got it, when it did win it was at 20/1 drifting from 16/1, hardly a sign of hoovering up. The best horse Tony has this year has risen from an OR72 to OR92 since being previously trained by D Nicholls |

I wasn't specifically refering to Resonate , however that particular horse fell sharply in the ratings over a very short period of time and won at a big price , displaying the traits i mentioned.
I'm quite sure the horse was rated a lot higher when Newcombe took over.( if i'm wrong i appologise , just going off memory) I know that other Newcombe/Gorrie horses won off extremely low ratings , the names i cannot recall.( Resonate not a Gorrie horse i think) The horse previously trained by D Nicholls is Hanovian Baron.This was a very well handicapped horse when Newcombe took over.The horse came from Ireland and Nicholls managed to lower his rating by roughly 2st over sprint distances.When Newcombe took over he simply upped the distance and hoovered up.I think its won quite a lot of decent prizemoney this year. |
