THE star of 2007 will be.....

[Hwjb]

They seem to be playing the long game with Discreet Cat, and I imagine next year he will be better still. If kept in training his stablemate, Iffraaj may well prove nigh on unbeatable over 7f, and top class at 6f & 1m (I fancy he will be better than Librettist over the latter trip).

Sander Camillo, visually, was about as impressive as a juvenile can be at Newmarket last time, and whilst the time figure was poor I back her to be a pretty special 3yo.

But (for jumping fans only) THE star of 2007 will be Taranis, Paul Nicholls' up and coming ex-French chaser. Have also backed Wellbeing for the Champion Hurdle at a price.
