Jumps Profile 13/14 - Grand Vision


Grand Vision  7 y gr g Old Vic -  West Hill Rose  (Neil)
Lightly raced 7 year old having run only times, winning twice,  he made his debut on 27 January 2011, finishing 2nd in a 2m bumper at Ffos Las, beaten 3l by Ballytober, then was second at Uttoxeter in a similar event in March, beaten 1 ¾ l by Denali Highway. He reappeared at Chepstow in October that year in a 2m 4f novice hurdle, finishing 5l second to African Broadway, then was 10 l third at Exeter over 2m 5f in a novice hurdle, beaten 10 l by All the Kings Horses. He was then second at Hereford, in a 2m 6f novice hurdle, beaten a neck by Gullinbursti, and got off the mark in January 2012 at  Huntingdon in a 2m 5 f handicap hurdle, beating Dusky Bob 2 ¼ l. He followed up at Haydock in a 3m handicap hurdle beating Sa Suffitt 7l and finished the season at Cheltenham in the 3m grade 1 Albert Bartlett hurdle, finishing 3 ¼ l third to the ill fated Brindisi Breeze. He has not been seen since, but is a useful stayer whether he stays over hurdles or goes novice chasing.
