One More Round (3.25 Lingfield) RP f/c 14/1 Can't think of many better horses to have run 14 times on the AW without winning ! Originally with one of my favourite trainers, Dermot Weld, but no credit to him in this case as he failed to recognise this horses potential as a sprinter and ran him only once at a distance of less than 7 furlongs. Joined the Nick Littmodden stable in Febuary 2005 and continued to be campained over 8/9 furlongs until dropped sharply in trip and running out of his skin in this race last year to be beaten just 1/2 length by Les Arc (group 1 winner since). Since showing his true colours as a sprinter has been almost exclusively campained at 5/6 f and had a fine 2006 turf season winning a £30k race at Windsor and finishing a slightly unlucky 2nd in a £44k handicap at Ascot. Form tailed off towards the end of last turf season but showed that he is no back-number when a fast finishing 4th to Areyoutalkingtome LTO despite being hampered and returning from a three month break. No way of knowing how far from peak fittness he was that day, but his conquerer has a welter burden of 10 stone today and the selection reopposes on 6 lb better terms.
