2023/24 Jumps Profile - A Dream to Share

5 y bg Muhaara – Hikari (Bob, Neil)

I don’t recall a Muhaara off spring in the jumps competition before, nor can there have been many who have won all 5 bumper starts, he made his debut at Tipperary in May 2022, winning a 2m bumper by 4l from Rath Gaul Boy (gave 20 lb), then followed up at Roscommon in June winning a similar event by 2 ¼ l from Fiveonfive. 

He reappeared in February this year winning a 2m grade 2 bumper at Leopardstown by 2 ¾ l from Fact To  File (received 3 lb), then in March at Cheltenham won the 2m Champion bumper, again beating Fact To File, this time by 1 ¼ l. He rounded off the season with victory at Punchestown in the Irish Champion bumper in April beating Tullyhill 3 ¾ l and will be a very exciting novice hurdler.
