'Rodeo' Guerriero shines

Josh Guerriero was forced into a decent impression of a rodeo rider when the saddle slipped on Exmoor Ranger at Newbury, but the gifted amateur still managed to cling on to victory.

A number of top trainers have made use of Guerriero this season and it was quite appropriate for his performance to come in the Racing Post “Hands And Heels” Jump Series Finale Novices’ Handicap Hurdle, designed to showcase young talent.
