Justin Snaith has one eye on breaking Paul Peter’s record of 221 wins in a season and a double at Hollywoodbets Kenilworth today helped, although he is still someway behind the necessary pace.
He is now on 106 wins at a strike rate of 15.92%, but if keeping up the same number of runners per calendar day rate and the same strike rate he will only reach 198 wins by the end of the season.
However, there are certainly going to be the big days of multiple success the yard are known for, so the record is not out of reach yet.
Snaith’s own record is 209.
There were also doubles at today’s Hollywoodbets Kenilworth meeting for Gareth Wright, Aldo Domeyer and Candice Bass-Robinson.
Wright is on 13 wins at 4.91%.
Domeyer is on 40 wins at 19.61%.
Bass Robinson is on 46 wins at 11.19%.
