Raceday LIVE Preview

All The Glory heads out on track for the second time this season, joining a small field with just two opponents in a valuable Graduation Chase at Carlisle this afternoon. All The Glory's season got off to a solid enough start, as she came home in third of four runners in her seasonal debut, collecting £2,000 for her Owners for the Day in the process. Although things didn't go perfectly that day, she jumped without making any mistakes and maybe just lacked a little race fitness in the closing stages of the 2m5½f contest. The O'Neills have decided to drop her back in trip to two miles, a distance over which she has been successful over before. 

Although her last victory over this distance was over hurdles, and three-and-a-half years ago, she did finish a close second over two miles in her debut over fences in October of last year. That contest was a similarly small field, which she seems to enjoy, as she can get into a rhythm without attracting too much attention from surrounding horses. All The Glory also finished powerfully in the Scottish Country Hurdle, over 1m7½f, storming home down the straight at Musselburgh cutting through the field to finish a good third on the day. 

Despite most of All The Glory's victories coming over two and a half miles, the prior races show that there are reasons to be positive about a drop in trip for our superstar mare, having proven her ability to finish quickly in contests over this distance in the past. Her jumping at home has been excellent in her schooling sessions and the team at Jackdaws Castle are more than happy with the work that she's been putting in on the gallops in the Cotswolds. If she can put everything she's learned over the course of the last year and a half in training, then there shouldn't be any reason that we don't see her back in the Winners' Enclosure during the 2026/27 National Hunt season.

The ground at Carlisle is set to be good and All The Glory does have winning form over an extended two mile trip on quick ground, having scored at Market Rasen on a good surface previously. With very little rain around at the moment, the conditions are unlikely to change prior to, or during racing, making tactical decisions slightly easier to come to before the off. 

The opposition

Despite only facing two opponents this afternoon, All The Glory is certain to face a stiff challenge from both of her rivals at Carlisle. Be Aware, for Dan & Harry Skelton, comes into today's race with a rating of 147, having won one race over hurdles and another over fences. Although he only has those two wins to his name, Be Aware has finished runner up in three of his last five races, including the Grade 1 Arkle at Cheltenham, before finishing third last time out in the Grade 1 Maghull Novices' Chase at the Grand National Meeting in April.

Today's only other opponent is Cristal d'Estruval, who runs off a mark of 139, and is unbeaten in two hurdles starts to date, having won his only point-to-point start prior to that. Despite only having had one start over rules, which was a three length victory at Warwick in November of last year, he was sent off as a massive 1/14 favourite in his second start, which came here at Carlisle in December 2025. He justified that price and demolished the field on that day by a huge 38 lengths having never looked under much pressure throughout. 

It's certainly looking like it'll be a stiff test for All The Glory this afternoon, having to concede an awful lot of weight to her two opponents, but is a situation that she's thrived in before. Hopefully she can put her best foot forward and do herself proud at Carlisle today!

Trainer and Jockey Statistics

Jonjo & AJ O'Neill have been in good form recently, training six winners in the last fortnight, including a double at Ffos Las yesterday and a Grade 3 winner at Wetherby on Charlie Hall Chase Day. They've had two winners from eight runners so far this season at Carlisle and it isn't too surprising to see a 25% strike-rate for the duo there, given that it's a long way from their base to send a horse. That increased their total number of winners at the course to nine (from 47 runners), returning a solid 19% win-rate.

Jonjo O'Neill Jr is in flying form right now and has ridden four winners from his last 20 rides, including the two for his family at Ffos Las yesterday. He's also been onboard both winners for Jonjo & AJ O'Neill at Carlisle this season and has a brilliant 24% strike-rate at the Cumbria course, having scored 25 times there prior to today.
