Snowden considering drop in distance for You Wear It Well

Jamie Snowden believes a drop in trip may help You Wear It Well break her duck over fences.

A Cheltenham Festival winner over hurdles, she has finished second and third in two outings over the bigger obstacles this season in Listed company

Over an extended two miles and a furlong at Bangor on her chasing debut, she was reeled in by Gordon Elliott’s Shecouldbeanything, while over two and a half miles at Warwick, she was caught out of her ground by the front-running Cherie d’Am before running on to finish third.

“Unfortunately, the front two just got away from her and then we were playing catch-up,” said Snowden.

“After that, we almost got caught out for playing catch-up and we almost got caught for third.

“The way the race panned out just didn’t play to our strengths, unfortunately.

“She jumps fences really well, she’ll be fine. She’s been placed in two Listed races, so it’s hardly all bad but it’s just a shame one of them hasn’t fallen our way.

“We probably should have won at Bangor but the race just got away from us at Warwick.

“I think we’ll stay over fences but we might just come back a little bit in trip, she’s probably better when she goes forward over a shorter trip.”
