Won a similar handicap at Huntingdon (2m3f, good) in March and made another bold bid when runner-up at Ludlow (2m5f, good) 12 days ago; only just caught in that race and he's 4lb well in off the same mark here; strongly respected.

Tom Bellamy gave a Flat horse of mine a good ride here the other week so I was happy to use him and he gave Snapius a great ride. He enjoyed the ground and was a convincing winner - James Owen, trainer.

Snapius would have hated that ground but he got a great ride. I suppose it was a weak enough race but we couldn't be confident on that ground. He will race on over the summer and he will mix it with the Flat - James Nash, trainer

I rode Snapius the last day in Listowel when I had a bad draw and around there is isn't ideal and was stuck three-wide the whole way which didn't suit. Once I got him straightened up he was still green but finished out his race well today and has come on again. His brother Snapraeterea was fourth in Ascot yesterday (Hampton Court Stakes) and he is from a very consistent family - Mikey Sheehy, jockey.
