4th December 2022, Jockey Jamie Moore
A huge congratulations to Owners of Spirit D’Aunou as he secures his first career win over hurdles!
Only 13 days ago Spirit D’Aunou made his racecourse debut at Kempton Park where he travelled well for a long way, tracking the leader and finishing a very respectable 2nd behind a smart youngster.
He then headed to Huntingdon on 4th December for only his 2nd career start where he looked a complete picture! Spirit D’Aunou travelled sweetly once again under Jamie Moore, jumping his hurdles beautifully throughout. The leader started to inject a bit of speed 3f out and the pair pulled away from the horse in 3rd. Spirit D’Aunou showed plenty of greenness and it was a shame to see him stumble on landing after the 2nd hurdle but he soon regathered himself and battled in the closing stages to go onto win a shade cosily.
Jamie was delighted with the horse and said “he has certainly learnt from his debut race to today and I was a bit wary as to whether he’d go past the leader or not today but he’s done is nicely and is sure to come on again both mentally and physically.”
Spirit D’Aunou has come out of his race well and will be given a few weeks before he races again. He is a big baby still learning his trade and his future certainly looks very bright!
