Big Game Hunter ready to pounce

JOHN OXX’S Big Game Hunter looks the bet of the weekend in the Fun For Kids Maiden at Navan tomorrow.

He showed nothing in his only outing as a juvenile, but clearly improved enormously over the winter, on the evidence of his reappearance at Leopardstown last month.

Big Game Hunter finished third behind the Ballydoyle pair, Stately Home and Yankee Doodle, making a lot of the running and battling on dourly in the closing stages.
