Battaash's groom hoping behavioural issues are a thing of the past

Ahead of the 2019 Qatar Goodwood Festival, at which Battaash will seek to land his third consecutive Group 2 King George Qatar Stakes, James Burn spoke to the man who knows him best, Bob Grace. During 33 years of working for the Hills family in Lambourn, Bob says that Battaash is the best horse he has looked after, though he has not always been the most straightforward to deal with.

However, he explained that those occasions when Battaash was a handful at the races, seem to be in the past.
