The first race of the afternoon sees the British debut of the very exciting Bo Zenith for Gary Moore, with the younster looking to use this race as a stepping stone towards the Grade One Triumph Hurdle at the Cheltenham festival.
Bought from France and given to Gary Moore for this season, the four year old looks a very talented type off the back of his sole run to date when comfortably landing a 1m7f hurdles event at Auteuil back in April 2022 for David Cottin.
What made that success even smarter was that a horse called Blood Destiny was back in second that day and that gelding is now with Willie Mullins and on his debut for the Closutton yard looked extremely talented bolting up by five lengths hard held, in a 20 runner maiden.
Bo Zenith went on to school the Mullins horse in France and although we will find out more about the horse after his run at Sandown on Saturday, he could be a superstar in the making.
