Shaman Champion looks up to winning a similar event after coming up just short in the Hawes & Curtis Nursery Handicap at
Goodwood.
Ridden with patience by Oisin Murphy, Richard Hughes’ youngster came with a winning run in the closing stages but could not get past a very game winner with plenty of experience to his name.
With his own extra experience now under his belt, it would be no surprise to see Shaman Champion in the winner’s enclosure as the season progresses.
