Scampi

PRICE £44 PER SHARE
Flat Stayer 5yo Bay Gelding 16.1hh
  • Sire: Nayef Dam: Preveza

Our trainer Andrew Balding was delighted to retain Scampi (watch his introduction video), who won three races for his Kingsclere operation last season. Timeform rated 95, Scampi suffered his first defeat in three starts at Newcastle last time, but the stop-start gallop didn’t suit his hold-up style and he met trouble in the straight, so his close-up fifth was a great effort. Prior to that, he won a competitive Racing League handicap on the all-weather at Newcastle and before that was a comfortable winner at Epsom, so he has shown considerable versatility and improvement lately.

The plan

Scampi should be a regular in good quality Saturday handicaps. Andrew is thrilled RaceShare has bought Scampi and that he's staying in the yard. He thinks he's been progressive and dependable throughout his career and his last two runs suggested there could be more to come next year. He would only need to improve his rating a few pounds to get a run in some of the Royal Ascot handicaps. Andrew does not rule out trying the gelding over hurdles at some stage. He's had some time off over the Winter months and is being brought back into full training ready for the start of the Flat turf season in 2023.
