2021/22 Jumps Profile - Jonbon

5 y bg Walk In The Park – Star Face  (  Bob, Steve)

One of the could be anything category he made his debut at Dromahane last November, winning a 3m 4 year old point by 15l from Lavorante, then, having moved across the water to Nicky Henderson, reappeared at Newbury in March this year, winning a 2m bumper by 4 ¼ l from Flying Demon.  Nicky Henderson told the Punter: "I hope he will lose this price tag thing sooner rather than later in life, because every time he runs everyone starts saying what he cost. That is a tag he has got to live with, it is not his fault.

"He has grown into a magnificent horse through the summer. He has got everything – he is a full brother to Douvan, he has got speed, he has got jumping ability, he goes on any ground, although I am not going to run him on fast ground. He has done plenty, we have had no hiccups, but I have not been in any great rush because of the weather. You can imagine where he is going to start, in one of those Newbury type novice hurdles that we have used for most of them."
