L’Eau Du Sud registers emotional Kingmaker success

L’Eau Du Sud held on to his unbeaten record over fences as he claimed a poignant victory in the Unibet Kingmaker Novices’ Chase at Warwick.

The grey was carrying the famous yellow and red silks of his late co-owner John Hales, who died last week at the age of 85 and was famed for his association with such horses as One Man, Azertyuiop and Grand National hero Neptune Collonges among many others.

L’Eau Du Sud was sent off the 1-5 favourite for trainer Dan Skelton in a small field for the Grade Two, with Harry Skelton in the saddle against just three rivals.

He jumped and travelled well throughout and approaching the turn for home strolled into a clear lead, but Paul Nicholls’ Rubaud gave chase over the final two obstacles and reduced the margin to a length on the line.

Hales’ daughter Lisa shared his love of racing and felt her father would have thoroughly enjoyed L’Eau Du Sud’s game victory.

She said: “The big man is definitely up there watching.

“Harry gave him a great ride, it’s not been a great week but he’d be very proud.

“I’m so glad we took him to Windsor when Protektorat won (in the Fleur De Lys Chase last month), he was absolutely buzzing all the way home. I’m so glad went for one big last day, you’d have thought we’d won at Cheltenham.

“He’d have loved this today, he loved all the big days, he’s loved having horses with (Sir) Alex (Ferguson) and Ged (Mason) and with Dan, Paul (Nicholls) and Olly (Murphy). He was living his dream.

“He loved all animals, he used to train RAF dogs and we’ve always had dogs, he loved all the horses and I used to have to tell him to be careful all the time but he said they wouldn’t hurt him and they never did!”

Dan Skelton was also delighted to have secured victory in the Hales’ silks.

He said: “His jumping is really good, this is an important race and it was even more important today because he was running in John’s colours and that is the Hales first winner since John passed.

“It’s a pretty poignant success given what John meant to our family. They are unbelievable supporters of all horse sports. I’m sure we’ll hear about his life history in the build-up to his funeral.

“He is a really good two-miler. He’s got the speed to jump at that pace and I thought those two went really quick there.

“He was superior from the back of three out to the last and then he probably got a bit tired and had a bit of a blow, which made it look a bit harder work than it really was.

“That will put him spot on and I’m just really happy with him. He was fit today, there’s room for improvement but I couldn’t have blamed fitness had he got beat.”

Coral left L’Eau Du Sud unchanged at odds of 9-1 for next month’s Arkle at the Cheltenham Festival, behind 8-11 favourite Sir Gino and 7-4 shot Majborough.

Skelton added: “He’s going to the Arkle having had four runs, Sir Gino has had one and might have another and Majborough has had two but ability supersedes experience a lot of the time.

“I don’t think we lack ability, though, I think this is a very, very good horse, he’s won two Grade Twos and a Grade One. We’ll be going full of hope, we’re not expecting to win but we’re going there hoping to.

“It’s a red-hot Arkle, one of the highlights of the week.”

‘No negatives’, as L’Eau Du Sud gets set for Kingmaker action

L’Eau Du Sud takes the next step in his promising career in the Unibet Kingmaker Novices’ Chase at Warwick on Saturday.

The Dan Skelton-trained grey has taken to fences incredibly well in his novice term, winning on debut by 10 lengths and then landing both the Arkle Trial at Cheltenham and the Henry VIII at Sandown.

The Arkle itself at the Festival is the spring target for L’Eau Du Sud, but first he will prepare in the Grade Two Kingmaker.

Nicky Henderson’s Arkle favourite Sir Gino had been due to be in action at Newbury in the Game Spirit, leaving Skelton to target Warwick, although as it has turned out Sir Gino misses his race as he is “sore” following what is hoped is a minor issue with his leg.

Regardless, the small-field Kingmaker not far from Skelton’s base looks very much within reach for L’Eau Du Sud, even with a penalty.

“Our lad is in good form and I haven’t got any negatives going into the race,” said Skelton, speaking before news broke on Sir Gino.

“I did ringfence this race after Sandown as with it being at Warwick, I was mad keen to go there, so it is nice that we can.”

L’Eau Du Sud will wear the yellow silks of his late co-owner John Hales following his death last week.

“He will be wearing John’s colours so it would be a poignant victory if we could get another one next to his name,” Skelton said.

“He is a short price for Saturday and we will go there and give it our best. I’m sure he will be hard to beat.”

Of L’Eau Du Sud’s position as the Arkle third-favourite behind Sir Gino and Majborough, Skelton added: “They are two Grade One-winning juveniles that he will be taking on in the Arkle, and Sir Gino won an open Grade One over hurdles in the Fighting Fifth.

“I think that they have every right to be ahead of us in the betting in the Arkle as they are Grade One-winning hurdlers and we are not.

“We’ve done everything asked of us over fences and we have done it handsomely. I’m quite happy to slip under the radar a little bit and that doesn’t worry me one bit.

“We have got the experience at Cheltenham under our belt, which is a positive, but those two are going to be hard to beat in the Arkle, but let’s get through Saturday first.”

Elsewhere in the Kingmaker there is L’Eau Du Sud’s stablemate Riskintheground alongside the Paul Nicholls-trained Rubaud, who was last seen falling in the Wayward Lad at Kempton, and Nigel Twiston-Davies’ Tedley.

Skelton reveals Madara suffered Cheltenham injury blow

Dan Skelton has reported that December Gold Cup runner-up Madara returned home from Cheltenham with an injury.

The former Sophie Leech inmate travelled smoothly through the contest and it looked just a case of when Harry Skelton wanted to press the button.

However, he jumped markedly to his left at the second last and was outstayed up the hill to be beaten a length by Gemirande.

“Unfortunately, he’s got a little injury, which I think kind of explains why he went left two out, but that’s racing, as they say,” Skelton told Sky Sports Racing.

The trainer also had news of a potential new target for his exciting novice chaser L’Eau Du Sud, winner of the Henry VIII Novices’ Chase at Sandown last time out.

Skelton had been thinking of the Kingmaker Novices’ Chase at Warwick but the Berkshire Winter Million fixture is now looming large.

“L’Eau Du Sud might actually go to Windsor for the Winter Million weekend and the Lightning Novices’ Chase,” said Skelton.

“All those graded novice chases are sort of worth the same, so money wouldn’t dictate where you went.

“He’s won a Grade One and I just feel if we went to Windsor, it might give him a longer gap to work up towards the Arkle, because if you ran him in the Warwick race (February 8), you could do a bit of work but not as much as you can do in seven weeks, so I just think tactically it might work better going that way.

“If Windsor is off, we’ve always got the back-up of Warwick or Newbury. It might just look like Windsor now.”

Skelton anticipating more from Sud on sounder surface

Harry Skelton was “absolutely delighted” to win the Henry VIII Novices’ Chase on Saturday with L’Eau Du Sud and believes he will be an even greater force on better ground.

The Dan Skelton-trained grey was ultra-impressive on his penultimate run at Cheltenham on good ground but had to show another side to his character at Sandown.

Up against two highly-regarded challengers from Gordon Elliott’s yard in Touch Me Not and Down Memory Lane, he cruised into contention before a slightly awkward leap at the last checked his momentum.

He picked up well again despite the heavy ground, though, and he is now the general 6-1 second-favourite for the Arkle behind Ballyburn.

“We were absolutely delighted to win the Henry VIII with L’Eau Du Sud. To have that Grade One on his CV now is fantastic. He got the job done in very testing ground, and he had to really get stuck in – it was great to see him do that,” Harry Skelton told his Star Sports blog.

“He jumped great down the back and ground out a tough win. He had two horses behind him that had high ratings and he put them to bed fairly nicely, so it was a very encouraging run.

“I think you saw at Cheltenham, when he was visually really impressive, that he springs off a little bit better ground, so what this performance showed was that he can go in all conditions. He showed he can win when the going is tough and that’s what you need, a fighter.

“He’s three from three over fences, so we’ll now have a bit of a break and he’ll probably have one more run before he heads to the Arkle.”

L’Eau Du Sud is king in Henry VIII Chase

L’Eau Du Sud maintained his impressive start to the season when winning the Betfair Henry VIII Novices’ Chase at Sandown.

Sent off the 10-11 favourite having impressed greatly last time out at Cheltenham, this time he had to win in a totally different fashion.

Gordon Elliott had sent two promising types over for the Grade One in Down Memory Lane and Touch Me Not so it was never going to be a walk in the park.

However, Down Memory Lane never looked happy from an early stage in his jumping and Mark Walsh was always niggling him along.

Touch Me Not put the pace to the race but one bad mistake down the back straight brough him back to the others and Harry Skelton appeared to going much better on the grey.

L’Eau Du Sud met the second last all wrong, though, and despite reasserting his advantage over Touch Me Not on the run to the last he again landed on all fours so it was to his credit in testing ground that he picked up once again to win by three and three-quarter lengths for Dan Skelton.

“The ground was hard work, it’s deep now. He bunny hopped the last but he’s a tough horse and has won ugly when he needed to,” Harry Skelton told ITV Racing.

“He’ll have a little break now and will probably have one run before the Arkle.

“He’s a fit horse, you’ve got to run them when they are fit and well and that is what Dan does, you take your chances but he’s shown today ground doesn’t really matter.

“I think he’s got it all this horse. On some nice spring ground I think he’ll really enjoy it.

“He’s beaten two really good horses today and Soul Icon is no slouch. He’s thrown our hat in the ring there but I’m sure there’s plenty to come across the Irish Sea.”

Betfair cut the winner to 6-1 from 9-1 for the Arkle in March.

Dan Skelton said: “I’m delighted as it’s the first time he’s been in a bit of a fight. He was very unpolished over the last and second last but that’s just him getting it done over the jumps in pretty sticky ground.

“The whole way around he was travelling particularly well. He definitely wants that slightly better ground to be seen at his absolute best.

“We’ll give him his flu vaccination, we’ll give him a little freshen up and he’ll either go for the Kingmaker at Warwick or he could go to Super Saturday (at Newbury). It depends where Harry’s got to be.

“I want to get him at his absolute peak for the Arkle and I think, after that, we’ve got a pretty exciting contender.”

Elliott, watching on from Navan, told Racing TV of his runners: “Touch Me Not almost took a fence with him so he did very well to finish second.

“I thought for Down Memory Lane it all just happened very fast for him. When he won the last day he practically jumped round on his own.

“He didn’t jump badly he just jumped very carefully the whole way and I’d say he did well to finish where he did. There’ll be other days for him, hopefully.”

Henry VIII crown in Sud’s sights at Sandown

L’Eau Du Sud puts his growing reputation on the line in the Betfair Henry VIII Novices’ Chase at Sandown on Saturday.

Runner-up in the Betfair Hurdle and the County Hurdle last season, Dan Skelton’s grey has made a flying start over the larger obstacles with back-to-back victories.

The six-year-old was untroubled when making every yard of the running in an open handicap at Stratford on his fencing bow and was arguably even more impressive when blitzing his rivals in Cheltenham’s Grade Two Arkle Trial last month.

L’Eau Du Sud, who carries the colours of part-owner Sir Alex Ferguson, steps up to Grade One level three weeks later and Skelton is optimistic he can complete his hat-trick.

“He’s ready and we’re very happy with him. He’s got some nice form in the book, his work’s been good. We go there as the favourite and hope to remain unbeaten over fences,” said the Alcester-based trainer, who claimed this prize four years ago with Allmankind.

“It’s a good heat, it always is, and we’ll see how it boils down when we get to the spring, but we’ve got a lot of racing to do before then.

“It’s a £100,000 Grade One on Saturday, so we’ll be concentrating on that first.”

Skelton’s charge is set to face four rivals, with Gordon Elliott sending both Down Memory Lane and Touch Me Not over from Ireland.

The JP McManus-owned Down Memory Lane made a smart start to his chasing career at Navan last month, while Touch Me Not upset his better-fancied stablemate Farren Glory in the Grade Two Craddockstown Novice Chase at Punchestown a fortnight ago.

Fresh from successfully defending his crown in the Elite Hurdle, Rubaud is thrown in at the deep end on his debut over fences for Paul Nicholls.

The Ditcheat handler, bidding for a record eighth win in the race, told Betfair: “He has done a lot of schooling over fences and has always shaped like a chaser and he arrives at Sandown in top form after winning the same decent races stylishly over hurdles at Kempton and Wincanton from the front for the second year running.

“He could be a very exciting recruit to chasing but doesn’t want soft ground, so I will be keeping an eye on the weather forecast.”

Keiran Burke’s outsider Soul Icon, runner-up on his last five starts, completes the line-up.

Skelton has high expectations for L’Eau Du Sud

Harry Skelton feels the sky is the limit for L’Eau Du Sud, who maintained his unbeaten record over fences at Cheltenham on Saturday in impressive fashion.

Runner-up in both the Betfair Hurdle and County Hurdle last season, he won by 10 lengths on his chasing bow and landed the Grade Two Arkle Trial by 11 lengths.

Sandown’s Betfair Henry VIII Novices’ Chase on December 7 will be his next port of call.

“He travelled and jumped brilliantly and put the race to bed in an instant, so he could do no more than win how he did,” said Skelton.

“Obviously, the competition is going to get better further down the line and we’ll have to take on the Irish horses, but that’s out of our hands.

“We always felt fences were going to be the making of him; he didn’t have such an advantage over hurdles as a lot of his rivals could get away with not being as exuberant as he is over fences.

“He’s the best two-mile novice chaser we’ve got and we’re excited about his future.

“He’ll go to Sandown now for the Grade One King Henry VIII and then we’ll work back from the Arkle from there.”

It was a profitable three days for Skelton and his brother, Dan, but one reversal was Ryanair winner Protektorat under a big weight in the Paddy Power Gold Cup.

“He was very fresh for his first run of the season and ran with the choke out a bit. He jumped great, and just took a big blow coming to three out before getting tired from the back of the last,” Skelton said in his Star Sports blog.

“Where we go next isn’t certain. He tends to jump and lean slightly left-handed, so that is a factor. We may just have to look slightly outside the box this side of Christmas due to the races that are available to him. The Peterborough Chase could be an option, but ultimately all roads lead back to the Ryanair.”

One winner set for a quick return is Doyen Quest, who is all set to turn out again this weekend in Haydock’s Betfair Stayers’ Handicap Hurdle, for which he will carry only a 5lb penalty with the handicapper having raised his rating 10lb for the victory.

“How far he can go, I don’t know, but he’s an improving horse. On his way back to the winners’ enclosure he was jig-jogging, so he obviously hadn’t had too hard a race,” said Skelton.

“That’s what he’s like and I think there’s plenty to come from him. We’ll see how he is throughout this week and all being well, he’ll line up for the valuable three-mile handicap hurdle at Haydock on Saturday.”

Skelton also had news on Valgrand who he believes could be a County Hurdle type following his defeat over two and a half miles.

‘Why not dream?’ – L’Eau Du Sud oozes class in Arkle Trial success

L’Eau Du Sud jumped for fun around Cheltenham to take the Paddy Power Arkle Challenge Trophy Trial Novices’ Chase with ease, leaving Dan Skelton to dream of what the future might hold.

The dashing grey was impressive on his chasing debut at Stratford by 10 lengths and connections wasted little time in going for Grade Two honours in the wake of that.

The 10-11 favourite began to look worthy of his estimation early in the race with a neat round of jumping, as he travelled along fluently in the hands of Harry Skelton.

Up the hill he put the race to bed with little fuss, pinging the last and eventually crossing the line 11 lengths to the good of Western Zephyr and Lookaway, continuing a fine two days for his owners, including Sir Alex Ferguson.

Skelton said: “I’ll always defend my horses, but I try not to overhype them because they have enough pressure on them anyway.

“I think with a horse like him and seeing what we’ve seen, you’re very entitled to get excited. He’s done it around the track, he’s got the form in the book and while there will be horses going chasing who achieved more over hurdles than he did, they’ve got to go and prove their suitability.

“We’ve got one tick in the box, I’m sure others will come out and do the same, we’ll go to Sandown now (Henry VIII) where he’ll try tp prove he’s the best two-mile novice chaser in the UK. I’m sure Nicky (Henderson) will have something to say about that with one or two and so will Paul (Nicholls), but I’d be confident enough to say there’s a level to come up to with them, it’s impressive to go and do that around here.”

He went on: “What you’ve got to remember is there’s lots of good horses on both sides of the Irish Sea. Sometimes you don’t get the prep runs into them and you don’t see how good they are until their third runs and sometimes the third run doesn’t go well.

“Sometimes the spring doesn’t go well, look at Nicky last year and that wiped out 30 per cent of the UK’s Cheltenham team in one swoop. It’s hard, but I think we’ve got really good horses in this country. But I always say you want to try competing against them.

“I know Willie (Mullins) is hard to beat and so are Gordon (Elliot) and Henry (de Bromhead), but so are the trainers over here.

“This is the best team I’ve ever had and we’ve always hoped to be in the position we are in.

“There are some with sexier form and if Ballyburn goes chasing everyone will be talking about him. We know how hard it is going to be, but why not dream?”

Paddy Power cut the winner to 16-1 from 40s for the Arkle Trophy back at Cheltenham in March.

L’Eau Du Sud taking early test of Arkle credentials Cheltenham

L’Eau Du Sud has the chance to lay down an early marker in the novice chase division when he goes for the Paddy Power Arkle Challenge Trophy Trial Novices’ Chase at Cheltenham on Saturday.

Dan Skelton’s six-year-old was an ever-present at the business end of a stack of high-class hurdle races last term without gaining the rewards he deserved, including when second in both Newbury’s Betfair Hurdle and the County Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival.

However, he has always been seen by connections as a chaser in the making and after a pleasing fencing debut at Stratford, is ready to make his presence felt in this Grade Two event.

“He ran really well in those top handicaps last year, but we were always waiting to be a chaser,” said Skelton.

“We were delighted with the round of jumping we got on his chasing debut at Stratford. I know this is a big step up, but I’m really glad we have got a run under his belt.

“He’s done nicely at home since and I’m really looking forward to him. The handicapper already thinks he’s a 10lb better chaser as he put him up 10lb for Stratford, so we will see if he is right.”

Neil King’s Lookaway was a Grade Two-winning bumper horse and after a season in the doldrums, showed his class last season when finishing runner-up in both the Greatwood Hurdle here at Prestbury Park and the Grade One Challow Hurdle behind Captain Teague.

Another to make a winning chasing bow at Uttoxeter, he is now back among graded opposition as he continues his fencing education.

King said: “It was the perfect introduction for him over fences at Uttoxeter and I thought he did it nicely.

“He beat a half-decent horse of Ben Pauling’s (Personal Ambition) so it wasn’t just an ordinary two-runner race. He did it the hard way from the front and did everything right in my opinion.

“He was a point-to-point winner before we bought him and is a stamp of a steeplechaser so one always hopes he is going to be better over a fence than he was over hurdles.

“His owner is a big Cheltenham supporter, loves having runners at Cheltenham and is very excited to see him run there. He’s come out of Uttoxeter great and we’re all looking forward to it.”

In the other graded action on the card, James Owen will attempt to win JCB Triumph Trial Juvenile Hurdle for the second year in a row with easy Wincanton scorer East India Dock.

Owen sent out Burdett Road to land this Grade Two prize 12 months ago and has high hopes for his latest classy recruit from the Flat, with East India Dock finishing fourth in the Mallard at Doncaster on his final start for James Fanshawe before switching stables and disciplines.

“We were all pleased with him at Wincanton and he took to hurdles well,” said Owen.

“He’s a half-brother to Burdett Road and he had a progressive Flat season with James Fanshawe and we really like him.

“Obviously it is a lot stiffer task than Wincanton on Saturday, but I think the course and the ground will suit him and hopefully he can run another nice race.”

Owen has already tasted Listed success in the juvenile division recently when Liam Swagger claimed Wetherby’s Wensleydale Juvenile Hurdle earlier this month.

A neck back in second on that occasion was Olly Murphy’s Static who takes aim at one of the Newmarket handler’s star prospects once again, bringing plenty of racecourse nous to the table.

“He’s battle-hardened and has banked lots of experience in France,” said Murphy.

“He’s hardy and I’m not sure we’ve got to the bottom of him yet, but we’re looking forward to running him.

“He’s been in good form at home and I hope he has come forward from Wetherby having had a bit more time to acclimatise in England.”

Skelton relying on Sud missile to strike crucial blow

Dan Skelton is banking on a big run from L’Eau Du Sud in the Coral Scottish Champion Hurdle to keep him in with a chance of claiming a first trainers’ title.

Runner-up in two of the most competitive handicaps of the season, the Betfair Hurdle at Newbury and the County Hurdle at Cheltenham, the six-year-old has been aimed at this ever since.

Cheltenham week went swimmingly for Skelton and co-owners Sir Alex Ferguson and John Hales, but the feeling was L’Eau Du Sud was mugged by the Willie Mullins-trained Ebor winner Absurde.

“He’s in good order and this is the race we’ve had in mind since Cheltenham, when he was second in the County Hurdle,” said Skelton.

“That was a very good run considering Absurde came from nowhere and showed great Flat speed late on.

“The ground will be perfect for him, the track is no issue, he travels very well and I’d say he’s a very big player, but the prices reflect that.

“If we’ve any chance of overhauling Willie, we need L’Eau Du Sud to figure pretty well, to be honest.

“It looked like we had it won at Cheltenham, but (Paul) Townend had different ideas and used all the Flat speed, so fair play to them, they picked up on the day but we’ll be looking to collect on Saturday.”

Skelton is battling with his old boss Paul Nicholls and Irish champion trainer Mullins, who runs Westport Cove, Bialystok and Alvaniy.

His son and assistant Patrick feels the middle one of that trio may be their best chance.

“Westport Cove is a horse with an awful lot of ability, but he’s a very difficult ride. At Cheltenham, he lost his head and my big worry is that it’s probably too big a field for him, as he has to be dropped out, which is hard to do in a big-field handicap like that,” he said on a Zoom call with the track.

“Bialystok is a Flat-bred horse who I could see winning on the Flat in the summer. There’s a race in this fella. He was unlucky at the DRF, when he got brought down at the second last, and it didn’t happen for him at Cheltenham. If the ground isn’t too soft, he’ll have his chance.

“We also run Alvaniy, who is 8lb out of the handicap but he’s a horse I definitely think is better than his mark. While it will be difficult from 8lb out of the weights, he’s a horse that could pick up place money. There’s a big race in him, but it won’t be easy from out of the handicap.”

Nicholls runs last year’s winner Rubaud off top weight and Afadil.

“Rubaud won this race stylishly last year off a mark of 135 on good ground and has a much harder task this time off 148,” Nicholls told Betfair.

“I don’t think he was right when he ran below par last time on heavy ground at Wincanton. He seems in a good place at the moment but I’d say he has it all to do off top weight on ground that is softer than he prefers.

“Afadil been running at the top of his form this spring and comes here a week after finishing third in a competitive race at Aintree, despite losing ground after a standing start.

“With Freddie Gingell claiming a handy 5lb, Afadil has a lovely light weight of only 10st 3lb and has a sporting each-way chance.”
