Here’s hoping for a Seven Barrows double on the Huntingdon card when useful point-to-point winner Viscount Nelson makes his debut under rules for Nicky Henderson in the bumper at 3.20pm.
Bought for a relatively sensible £40,000 after winning his one start at Ballysteen, the runner-up has won since to give the form a better look about it, while the fourth only went under by a short-head next time out.
There is always the doubt about the speed for the two miles having won over three, but connections feel he can be a success in this sphere before being sent hurdling, and they ought to know a lot more about him than I do, with his breeding suggesting it should not be a problem.
