Iris De Balme

[Thomas]

Can anyone inform me on how this horse has progressed this year?

Has it pushed on since its shock Scottish National win?

I remember having a tenner on Halcon Generaldis that day who was coasting with Choc Thornton getting on the bridle far too early, and coming to the 2nd last and making a bad mistake at the fence, but I was still confident of collecting my winnings, almost standing next to the collection point at William Hill in Huyton when……..

Out of camera shot, Iris De Balme must of been flying, and came into camera, flew past Halcon Generaldis and ended up winning by 12 lengths at 66/1

At that moment I thought this horse might go on to great things, but he was 23lb better off that day due to his previous bad form so I’m unsure whether the horse will be able to cope with the extra weight once the handicapper gets tougher on him,

So how has the horse been doing?

He’s unraced since the Whitbread last year due to injury. Hopefully will be back next year

Cheers mate. I fancied this horse for the national to be honest. Just the way he seems to take to things very quickly and easily.

Bit like yourself there, by the looks of things!

Well sussed GW.
There’s an anomaly somewhere. A shooting star perhaps?
