BALDING BANKER

Catterick 3.10 WIN

This seven-year-old son of Accordion was no mug in Bumpers and novice hurdles for champion trainer Paul Nicholls. Indeed he wasn’t far behind the ill-fated Darlan in a race at Cheltenham 14 months ago. Now with Ferdy Murphy, he’s plying his trade as a prospective staying chaser, and could be ready to strike after three promising runs. He’s certainly bred for the job because he’s related to high-class jumpers Fiveforthree and Celestial Gold, and even hails from the family of the great L’Escargot, winner of both the Cheltenham Gold Cup and the Grand National in the 1970s.
