The first horse from last week that caught the eye and will be winning races in the future is the Gordon Elliott trained New Year Honours.
A fair horse on the flat for Ralph Beckett winning one of his four starts, getting off the mark on his last run on the level at Lingifeld when stepped up to 1m4f.
Bought and sent to Gordon Elliott to be trained over the jumps, he made his yard debut at Down Royal on Saturday when finishing a good second behind another nice type from the flat in Cougar.
For a first attempt over hurdles for New Year Honours it was a smart performance and with him only going to improve under the Tutelage of Elliott, he could be exciting.
