Beat Box was a winner of a juvenile hurdle at Newcastle and handicap hurdle at Ayr last December when switched back from chasing. Favours heavy ground and a stiff galloping track and was sadly just in the handicapper’s grip going up 13lbs for that last win (later appealed to 10lbs) BHA rated 97. He trains well and is in good heart - a likeable horse who is genuine and a very good hurdler.
Cokoriko (by Robin Des Champs) was a smart listed winner over hurdles in France and has sired Coko Beach, Polrico - Grade 2 Hermes de Chamdoux (Grade 3) and Scottish Supreme Novice Hurdle winner Fred.
Half-sister Maryborough has won on the flat and over hurdles and Dam Niemen was a tough 1m-1m5f winner herself out of an able 6f performer.
