Gordon Elliott tends to make his trips north profitable and Champagne Sparkles can ensure another winning return for the Co Meath trainer by taking the final race on this afternoon’s card in Down Royal, the Molson Coors Bumper.
The selection showed plenty of promise when third on debut in a bumper won by The Banger Doyle and, while he was outpaced when the pace quickened initially, he stayed on to really good effect. Among today’s runners, he isn’t alone in looking as though he will be better over a longer trip, but he can improve enough from his debut to get off the mark.
