EL GRANJERO IMPRESSES WITH BACK-TO-BACK WINS
Killeen Glebe graduate El Granjero recorded back-to-back wins in impressive style, following promising placed efforts on his first three starts over hurdles.
The Youmzain gelding joined Clive Boultbee-Brooks following his debut win in a four-year-old maiden at Moira for Peter Flood. Runner-up on his first three starts over hurdles, he got off the mark under rules with an easy nine length win in a Hereford maiden hurdle at the end of March. He followed up at the track two weeks later when justifying favouritism by six lengths.
The progressive bay was bought by Killeen Glebe with Mags O’Toole as a yearling at the Tattersalls Ireland February NH Sale. He wass resold by Killeen Glebe at the venue’s Derby Sale to Peter Flood’s Grange Stables for €42,000.
