Moving on to the long-range tracker, Look Back Smiling caught Alex’s attention, and she believes he will make a strong comeback at the Lincoln meeting next March. Despite being dropped 1lb after the turf season, Look Back Smiling is a horse to watch out for in the future.

When discussing Jeriko Du Reponet’s behavior at Sandown, Alex highlighted the importance of transparency in horse racing. She stressed the need for better communication with racegoers and punters to avoid confusion and ensure safety for both horses and riders.

In terms of the upcoming races at Cheltenham, Alex pointed out Imagine as a horse to watch in the Paddy Power Gold Cup. The horse’s impressive track record and potential for success make him a standout contender for the race.

In the Greatwood Handicap Hurdle, Alex highlighted Dysart Enos as a promising contender with a strong chance of winning. Despite missing the Festival in March due to lameness, Dysart Enos is expected to perform well in handicap company with a mark of 131 underestimating her true potential.
