Dual winner over hurdles last term landing valuable handicaps at Sandown (2m4f) and Punchestown (3m). Disappointing as favourite on chasing debut when remote third at Chepstow last month but surely more to come.
Comfortable Wetherby novice hurdle winner on third start went on to outrun 50/1 odds when close sixth in the Albert Bartlett at Cheltenham (3m). Won lone point-to-point very easily so could develop into a smart chaser.
Forecasts
Robin Waters (5/6), Minella Awards (1/1)
Minella Awards was 8lb better than his rival over hurdles but after his uninspiring start over fences preference is for the less exposed ROBIN WATERS for the prolific Skelton team. He showed plenty of ability in just four starts over hurdles and connections waste no time switching him to fences which is what he is bred for so we now may see the best of him.
