General Eliott Stays Unbeaten

General Eliott made his first start of the season, his second lifetime start, yesterday at Sandown in a condition stakes. I had been looking forward to this race, as he had been a horse I have been quite excited about since I picked him for my crop.

I was very happy he won. He galloped to victory quite easily in the end and the 3/4 length margin of victory does not tell the whole story. He had little room approaching the furlong marker and had to squeeze through a narrow gap. It shows that he is a brave horse that wants to win and the son of Rock Of Gibraltar could be a top three-year-old in the making.
