Dan Skelton's Baradari set for step up in class at Leopardstown

Dan Skelton is considering stepping Baradari into Grade One company at Leopardstown over Christmas.

On his first run since leaving Venetia WIlliams, Baradari won the valuable Fixed Brush Hurdle at Haydock in fine style.

Skelton wants to step him up in class and feels he has a better chance of winning a good staying hurdle in Ireland than at home, with the Christmas Hurdle his aim.
