Jonbon
Jonbon Betfair Ascot Chase (G1) When Jonbon crossed the line 2s and 9 lengths behind Il Etait Temps in the Betfair Tingle Creek at Sandown in December, he was finished.

For Trawlerman, that season has come in 2025. Whilst many will point to the fact that this performance on Saturday was perhaps below his […]
