Turtle can make a winning bow

SQUIRTLE TURTLE can get his jumping career off to the perfect start in the Lympne Juvenile Maiden Hurdle at Folkestone today.

The four-year-old is a rare runner over hurdles for trainer Paul Cole and heads into the race in fine heart after winning on the all-weather last time out.

Squirtle Turtle did not show a huge amount in six starts on turf, managing a couple of promising third places but not much more than that.
