Begin The Luck
Largely reliable veteran and a three-time winner since December, latterly over C&D in April; touched off at Fontwell 20 days ago, with I Shut That d'Or about 5l back in third; nudged up 1lb but likely to make his presence felt again.

From the connections
“I thought Begin The Luck was was the best horse in the race and I told Rob [David] to ride him that way. I think people forgot his last run was a grade higher and there were no other eight-time winners in this field, so I was confident - Daisy Hitchins, trainer.”
“There were only six runners but it was a competitive little race and ended up being an exciting one too. Begin The Luck is a tough old horse that you can rely on and that was his eighth win. He's very consistent and just enjoys his racing - he's a lovely horse to have. I always said this would be his last season, but he seems better than ever and that was probably the best race he's won in his career. While he's enjoying it, we'll keep him going and take it race by race - Daisy Hitchens, trainer.”
