The ATR Twitter feed has a great jockey cam footage of French Gold Cup winner, Docteur De Ballon winning.
Not quite good enough today but at least positive enough run for start of season..He jumped well and finished the race strongly which were all good points. He suffered some traffic problems in the race which certianly didn't help..
It is good that some positives came out the race but more importantly he came home safe and sound, good luck going forward Captain. Mind and give us an update as to how he is.
Thanks Joe z. Jockey thought he would have been very close to winner with a clear passage through.. Horse is sound but it seems that one of his tendons was slightly warm when they got him home. There is a bit of swelling to his leg today but hopefully that will reduce as this week progresses....
