    Officially 11 years old today and still winging fences from the front. Has been eligible for veterans’ chases for a year now. If he ever goes that way he’ll push them all out of the handicap and whip them hollow ;-)

    Born Survivor, ten lengths third to Frodon in the Oaksey Chase at Sandown Park last April, won on his Point-to-Point debut at Larkhill today at the rewarding odds of 4/1.

    It’s his birthday too – in fact, it’s all their birthdays.

    Happy birthday, horses!

    The horse Maternity must get bloody busy on 1st January every year.

    All that treasure he won as a racehorse will be spent on flowers and baby foal seats

    I don’t think he’ll be a responsible dad Nathan, he’s got one in every port.

    I think I may inadvertently have stepped into nerd territory. My ol’ paw gave me a bit of sound many years ago.
    He said nipper, if you are ever in the company of nerds or horseheads the best thing to do is join in with one eye but with your other eye roll it around and look about for a convenient exit.

    Happy Birthday to you
    Happy Birthday to you
    Happy Birthday dear Frodon
    Happy Birthday to you

    From horseheads and true,
    From old friends and new,
    May good luck go with you,
    And happiness too.

    How old are you now?
    How old are you now?
    How old, How old
    How old are you now?

    I remember him as a 4-yr-old starting over fences; he looked useful, but not set for such a stellar career. Magnificently trained and placed by Paul Nicholls

    Beautifully ridden too – perfect balance, beautiful hands. A great team, and a joy to watch.
