Annamix
A 3-year-old gelding who has now moved from France to Ireland, unfortunately, as of yet it is not known to whom Annamix has moved to. The son of Martaline ran once in France, which was a hurdles race at Vichy for 3yo’s. Annamix ran with a lot of promise on his sole French run, he jumped nicely and was gaining a lot of ground on the winner towards the finish, this suggests in the future Annamix may appreciate a step up in trip from his 2m 1f race. Annamix was trained in France by Guillaume Macaire, when it comes to developing and teaching young National Hunt horses to do their jobs from an early age there’s not many better, Macaire has supplied the likes of Vautour, Silviniaco Conti and Bristol De Mai over to these shores to name just a few. Having already gained experience over hurdles, Annamix could be raced this season and might prove to be a very useful juvenile hurdler if seen this year. However, as the son of Martaline is still a maiden over hurdles, there is no need to rush him this season and as he looked like he might appreciate a step up in trip from 2 miles, it may be more beneficial to give him a novice hurdling campaign the season after instead of in the juvenile hurdling division this year, where he can compete in races with a step up in distance from 2 miles.
