All Inn Hand

Both wins have come at Class 4 level, where All Inn Hand has won 2 of its 8 races — one in every four starts at that grade, which is a strong return. The first win came at Stratford-on-Avon in May 2025, followed by another at Hexham in June 2025. Two different tracks, two different parts of the country — this is not a horse that only fires on one particular patch of turf. Sean Bowen has been in the saddle for six of those 13 races and was aboard for that Hexham win, the pair finding a useful understanding over time.

What makes this profile particularly interesting is where the trainer thinks the ceiling is. Mickey Bowen — who has sent out an impressive 52 winners from his Pembrokeshire yard this season alone — believes All Inn Hand is actually better suited to chasing than the hurdle races she has largely contested so far. His reasoning is simple: jumping is her greatest asset, and fences will give her more to get her teeth into. He has spoken about Perth's big April meeting as a likely target once she is fully wound up after a break, and he is confident she will win races through the summer.

Fifty-two winners in a season is a serious number for any yard, let alone one based in west Wales, and it tells you Mickey Bowen knows how to place a horse and get it to peak at the right moment. If he is right that All Inn Hand has been operating below her natural ceiling, and the switch to chasing unlocks something, the career record of 2 wins from 13 might end up looking like a very modest starting point for what comes next.
