Island Flyer

The Hennessy Gold Cup has some fairly strong trends that are worth consideration when trying to find the winner.

They key trends for this race are:
Runners aged 6 or 7 years old have won 8 of the last 10 renewals.

8 of the last 10 winners have started at odds of 10/1 or less.

7 of the last 10 winners have carried 11st or less.

The last 12 winners were all placed 1st or 2nd last time out.

The only runner that fits all these trends is Island Flyer. He is a 6 year old, carries 10 stone, finished 2nd last time out and is generally a 7/1 chance in the market.

Tom George’s runner appears to have a bit to find from a class point of view but the stable have been in great form this season and Island Flyer has only tasted defeat once since going chasing, that was last time out when beaten a nose by Cornish Sett. George believes his horse will be better for that run though and with just 10st on his back, Island Flyer must have every chance of causing an upset over the bigger stables.
