'I loved his attitude' - Noel Fehily liked the look of exciting juvenile hurdler

Is Cyrname now the one to beat in the King George?

Noel Fehily, former jockey I thought Cyrname put up a very good performance, jumped beautifully and looked quite straight, jumping-wise. He probably needs to step up a little bit to win a King George. The big decision now lies with Harry Cobden. Clan Des Obeaux has won the last two King Georges, he’s a very good horse.

Page Fuller, jockey I won’t be the one to take him on after that performance. Paul Nicholls’ horses are in red-hot form and seem on a different level so far this season. They say he wasn’t 100 per cent for the race last year and if that was the case and Saturday’s horse turns up again, he will take some beating.

Harry Skelton, jockey Paul Nicholls holds a strong hand with Cyrname and Clan Des Obeaux. It was a good training performance to get Cyrname back after his heavy fall at Ascot last time. On ratings he was entitled to do what he did, but he looks a more grown-up horse, which will help in the King George.
