Sugapiehoneybunch    –  5.15    Thirsk    –    1m  4F    Handicap    –    50/1    Coral,    Boyles,   Bet365   –   BOG   –   4 
places  –   1.5   Points   each   way   –   LVP   20/1 
I put up Sugarpiehoneybunch last year and she stayed on over 1m 2F to finish 3rd for us at 
50/1. 
See my write-up in ITALICS below for the run which gets plenty of pertinent information for 
today. 
She didn’t progress the next time out but was coughing after that run and wasn’t seen again 
last season. 
This season she has run twice without success, but coming from a small yard they seem to 
be happy to get her race fit on the track. The first was without her normal cheekpieces, then 
her latest was over 2 miles which was probably too far at this stage of the season. 
However both those runs will have helped her fitness/conditioning, and I like that they bring 
her back for her first attempt at 1m 4F which could end up being her optimum trip.  
Today she runs back on turf on soft going, Initially, I was a little surprised as she had shown 
improved form on all-weather. But looking back at her previous turf form as a backward sort 
(over unsuitably shorter trips) her best runs were when the ground was soft. 
So she looks really interesting today, running off that basement handicap mark with the 
decent Graham Lee jocked up and the cheekpieces retained.

The 50/1 price looks huge for her chances, so I’m recommending 1.5 points each way.

Sugapiehoneybunch    –    6.00    Newcastle    –    1m    2F    Handicap    –    50/1    Coral,    Boyles,    Bet365    (best 
priced   66/1)   –   BOG   –   4   places   -   1   Point   each   way. 
The four-year-old filly Sugapiehoneybunch went in my tracker as a potential improver when 
stepped up to longer trips. 
She has shown hints of ability at a modest level but very much shaped like needing further on 
her two starts at Newcastle over 7F and then at a mile. 
Her breeding has a mixed look to it, some of her relatives have proved to be speedy, but the 
dam was a 1m 4F – 1m6F performer, and whilst she was bred with a more precocious sire 
(Fast Company - 7F winner at two and second in 7F Dewhurst at three ), it looks like she is 
taking more after her mum. 

Connections have run her primarily over 7F as a two and three-year-old where she has been 
staying on, and her new trainer Simon West has tried her at 1 mile with hints that she wants 
further. 
She is modest, and they tried her in cheekpieces which suggests she hasn’t been putting it in 
fully on the track, and these are on today for her first try at 1m 2F 
I think she is well worth a go at the trip, especially as an older horse, and it could easily bring 
out a small improvement that could put her in with a chance today. 
Her first two runs this season have been with a 7lb claimer who has yet to win in a race and 
is just gaining experience herself, so these look like conditioning runs and there was very little 
assistance from the saddle. 
Today is a different story as young Aiden Brookes takes the ride, who is a decent 7lb claimer, 
with 10 wins and an 8% strike rate  He has won at Newcastle and has plenty of experience on 
the all-weather, so I’m happy we will get a decent ride. 
From a handicapping perspective, Sugarpiehoneybunch has postmarked a high of  58, with 
multiple runs in the mid-50s. Today she runs off 46, and with Aiden’s 7lb claim runs off a net 
39. 
I’m not suggesting she is a good thing but she has been getting outpaced over shorter, and 
this 1m 2F will certainly help. 
If the cheekpieces help her focus and more importantly, Aiden puts her in the race, then she 
could win this. 
At 50/1 we are getting the right odds to find out, so I’m recommending 1 point each way. 
She is still value at 25/1.
