Gethin
2-2 (heavy/good) prior to finishing second in two Listed races last autumn (1m4f/1m2f, very soft/good to soft); reappeared with convincing Listed win at Kempton (1m2f, AW), an improved performance which bodes very well for his future prospects; acquired by Wathnan Racing since that last run; respected.

From the connections
“Gethin is a work in progress, but I'm pleased with the manner of his win and he should take a step forward from this. He's in the Ganay, but it's potentially the strongest in years so we'll assess our options and make a plan. I've never made any secret that I think the world of him, so I'd like to believe we'll be going into Group 1s with him at some stage - Owen Burrows, trainer, speaking to Racing TV.”
“Gethin is in the Dante and I liked this race as it gives us a bit of time. There's Chester, Lingfield and York, so we can dream and see what's what. We'll see what the opposition is but he's a well-balanced horse and it's a Derby, isn't it. He's still a big, raw baby, so he'll improve for getting that out of his system. He was a bit fresh in the stable earlier, but he's a work-in-progress and you can't be anything but impressed with him - Owen Burrows, trainer.”
“It was an impressive performance. I was always confident that I was going to win quite well. Gethin just had a wander around when he got to the front but he's entitled to do that. He's gone through the line well. He's gone through that ground well. It would be nice to see him in the spring on better ground doing something similar, but he'll be a nice middle-distance horse. I don't think he needs to rush up in trip - Callum Rodriguez, jockey, speaking to Racing TV.”
