O'Hare sends three runners to Newcastle Northern trainer Michael O’Hare sends three runners to Newcastle today, although prospects of another spectacular coup appear unlikely. O’Hare, who has landed big paydays with a treble and double at Naas in recent times, is represented by 10yo Arctic Mick in the S V Rutter Handicap Chase, 13yo Clearly Now in the Freebetting.co.uk Handicap Chase and Strandfield Bay (well held on debut run recently) in the concluding EBF/DBS Mares´ Standard Open Bumper (Qualifier). At Leicester, the lowly Dove Selling Hurdle is of interest for Irish form students in that Earth Magic, Indian Spring and Knight Legend, each of whom make their mark by winning when trained in Ireland, among the more strongly fancied runners. At Southwell, there are a few ex-Irish trained runners with Your Gifted (formerly with Patrick Prendergast) contesting the opening Today´s Jockey Specials At Bluesq.com Selling Stakes. Odin’s Ravin, formerly in training with Michael Halford, finally got off the mark at this venue nine days ago and he bids to defy a 9lbs rise in the Book Tickets At Southwell-racecourse.co.uk Handicap. Southwell’s most regular ‘customer’, trainer Alan McCabe’s Elusive Warrior, has amazingly contested 47 of his latest 51 starts at the venue and the seven year old gelding races in the Play Roulette At Bluesq.com Handicap.
