What a horse and what a great training performance by Laura ! To keep Skipping On fresh and enthusiastic after a hard race just 9 days ago is a terrific achievement.
This was another emphatic victory, his fourth of the season and another large hike in the handicap can be expected after this 11 length romp !
He seems to thrive on stiff tracks such as Towcester and Carlisle which are very similar with tough , uphill finishes.
SKIPPING ON jumped boldly in front, if markedly out to his left, and was fully in control over the last three fences. Officially 4lb ahead of his mark here, and back in grade, he has had a fine spell in recent weeks and seems just as effective over this trip or 2m.
