Point To Point Recruits
This book follows the transition of horses who have shown sufficient promise between the flags to suggest they can have a fruitful career under Rules for their new connections.
The Point-To-Point Recruits features:
- An in-depth analysis of 90 + graduates
- Of those names, there are a hand-picked 25 with ‘Star Potential’ which Jodie believes will do especially well for their new connections
- A filly trained by Nicky Henderson who fetched a record price at the sales
- A hugely exciting gelding for Colin Tizzard with the potential to reach Graded level
- A top prospect with plenty of speed to win bumpers for Fergal O’Brien
- An eye-catching runner-up of a strong maiden who has joined Tom George for owner Roger Brookhouse.
- An impressive 10-length winner now in the care of Venetia Williams
- A well-bred sort who should make an impact for his lower-profile yard
