Fletcher's Flight

Wallis has had a productive season — seven winners sent out from his Essex base — and Fletcher's Flight is very much part of that story. The horse won at Chepstow just last week on 6 June 2026, so it arrives in current form and clearly in good health. Before that, recent runs had been a mixed picture, with a couple of mid-field finishes and a blank, but the win confirms it hasn't lost its appetite for the job.

One of the most interesting things about Fletcher's Flight is what happens when the ground gets wet. On soft or muddy ground it has won 2 from 4 races — that's a 50% win rate, meaning it wins one in every two races when conditions suit. For context, its overall win rate is one in six. The difference is stark, and it's the kind of thing a sharp trainer keeps a close eye on when entries go in.

Great Yarmouth is worth a mention too. Nine races there, two wins — that makes it a genuine course specialist at one of the friendliest tracks on the east coast calendar. Two wins from nine might not sound dramatic, but finding a horse that repeatedly runs well at the same venue is valuable information, and Yarmouth's flat, left-handed layout clearly suits this particular horse.

Jockey Adam Farragher has been the key partnership here — 4 wins from 12 races together works out to winning roughly 1 in every 3 times they've teamed up, a figure well above the horse's overall average. When Farragher is in the saddle, Fletcher's Flight is a different proposition.
