The Caltonian, trained by Linda Perratt, is set to extend his impressive winning streak in the Boost Your Acca-Fenwa With BetUK Apprentice Handicap at Newcastle (7.15pm), this Saturday, January 27. This remarkable five-year-old has achieved five victories and three placements since the All-Weather Championships began in mid-October, elevating his handicap from 55 to 87.
Aiming for his fourth consecutive win at Newcastle in just under a month, The Caltonian has demonstrated versatility, winning over both five and six furlongs, expertly ridden by Jonny Peate. This success has placed him atop the ARC’s All-Weather Bonus Horse of the Year leaderboard, with a lucrative £100,000 prize at stake.
Perratt commends The Caltonian’s development and adaptation to all-weather conditions, citing his impressive stride and versatility across distances. The team's current focus is to increase his ratings to qualify for the Sprint on Finals Day, with confidence bolstered by his affinity for the Newcastle track.
