Hannon can’t choose between his Lockinge rivals

THE Richard Hannon team is divided on which of their two will come out on top in what promises to be a vintage renewal of the Lockinge, as they are housed in different parts of the stable.

“It is a Group One and we are taking nothing for granted as there are other good horses in this race, but I could not be happier with my two.
