It was great to see Vallarta win the race at Southwell that Klynch won last year in the same colours.  Vallarta’s attitude has been questioned in the past for his previous connections but he did nothing wrong under Jimmy on his fibresand debut.

“An ordinary sprint handicap. VALLARTA was making his stable/AW debut after 181 days off, but his sire has a decent record with his runners around here and he was only 1lb higher than when winning at Salisbury last summer. Always handy, he had matters well under control after leading passing the 2f pole and can build on this for his new connections.”

“Vallarta was bought as a replacement for Klynch, who we lost last summer and who won this race last year. He’s done it nicely.”
