Woodside Wonder wins the feature race at Catterick

Wed 11 Sep 2019

Well the preview that we sent out to the owners of Woodside Wonder proved word for word a good pre-empt for the feature race at Catterick yesterday!

"He lines up at Catterick this afternoon and Callum Rodriguez takes the ride. We’ve got a good draw in stall 1 and we’re back up over 7f both of which should suit him and also the ground is on the quick side of good, so all of those three things should play in his favour today. Obviously be needs to break well from the stalls – we don’t want a repeat of what happened last time but if he breaks nicely we’ll just ask Callum to go forward and keep him on the rail. Based on the way he ran last time, you’d hope he would be competitive today and should be in mix."

A great ride by Callum with the race panning out as we had hoped and he was thrilled to be back in the winners enclosure. He was selected by the Racing Post as their 'Star Performer' - "Woodside Wonder (3.30) appreciated the return to 7f and got up late in the piece." 

A fourth career win for the son of Camacho and the fact that he has been in the winners' enclosure for 13 of his 21 starts is not bad! Well done to his owners and thank you to team Dalgleish for our 67th winner of the year.
