An update on Get Back To Me after his run at Wincanton

We were very pleased with Get Back To Me’s run at Wincanton last week.  He ran in the 0-115 NH Nov handicap hurdle over a longer trip of 2m6f and came 5^th under a ride by Paddy Brennan.  He hasn’t had his ground so far this season and he wants good or genuine good to soft ground.  This was his first run in a handicap and over the longer trip.  He stayed on very nicely after relaxing out the back and showing us there is more to come. 

We had Buffy Shirley-Beavan, our vet, at the yard prior to his race and she had a look at his larynx and it was confirmed that he needs to have a wind op so considering this, he ran really well.  We would have to think that the operation will improve him significantly and he was booked in sharpish to Langford at the University of Bristol under the care of Geoff Lane and was operated on successfully on Tuesday and was picked up yesterday.  He will not now be running until the spring on better ground.  I really think he is a very decent horse that when he is able to run to his full potential will be winning races.  His full brother is the 4yr old Champagne Present currently in training with Jonjo O’Neill that was bought for 210,000gns!
