Alfred Boucher
Pipped in the 2022 Ebor; he's now a 10yo and very lightly raced in recent seasons but had sunk way down the weights before winning pretty smoothly at Salisbury (1m6f) last month on third start for this yard; bit to prove these days on softer than good; also back up 4lb but stays 2m and still thrown in judged on his old form.

From the connections
“Alfred Boucher is an absolute star, what a performance. You'd actually have to question how far he'd have won by without the run the other day! But without that run the other day he wouldn't have got in. I'm very proud of him and what he's achieved is absolutely amazing. A little bit more pace in the race would have suited him, but the race was the race. There's lots of targets abroad and we'll see how far we would like to go. He may even come back here next year - Ian Williams, trainer.”
“His trainer finally realised Alfred Boucher gets a mile and a half. He's incredibly game. He's got a huge stride, heart and wants to do it. I thought we were being a little bit brave going for this grade of handicap - Henry Candy, trainer.”
