But given that’s not what he usually does with his juveniles, should be no surprise that he stays hurdling.
He’s certainly not one that likes to take risks and in this case I absolutely don’t blame him for doing what he usually does.
He could be top class and no need to take risks imo.
Light season as a 4/5 year old(Lossiemouth/ Willie quote), maybe go CHurdle, and then maybe Chasing following season depending I guess on how he stacks up with CHill or any other top Hurdler that may be around.Plus of course he might actually be a proper hurdler and not a chaser anyway.
He certainly doesn’t need to learn from anyone with his 2 milers, none better imo.

Anyone who has taken that 20s (which is plenty of us) was a mug.
I even questioned him ever doing it for myself and STILL put the bet on.
Let's hope I'm wrong

As you say it’s quite a big club we have got!!
Anyway, we might just get a surprise, probably not though.
