Vintage performance expected

THERE is rarely much quality on show at Hereford and the majority of the meeting there today is not much different.

However, there is a promising youngster to keep an eye on in the shape of the Henrietta Knight-trained Only Vintage.

An ex-Irish gelding, he boasts form that would be regarded as top-notch even if he were running on a Grade One track, and there should be little to worry him in division two of the European Breeders Fund ‘National Hunt’ Novices’ Hurdle.
