Northern Champion
Record is 3-6, most of those starts in non-domestic races; came up short in Group 1 last time when bidding for Meydan hat-trick; bit to prove back on home soil but very hard to dismiss on ratings.

From the connections
“Northern Champion is gutsy and he hit the line strongly. He did a lot wrong and still came out on top. He's an improving horse and a likeable sort - Kieren Shoemark, jockey, speaking to Racing Dubai.”
“It's been a plan for a while because it's a nice pot to start off with. Mine don't tend to win first time so although I'm not surprised because we think Northern Champion is a nice horse, there will be plenty of improvement to come, it's very exciting. He's a cool horse and we thought he'd run a nice race, especially on the quick ground - Ed Walker, trainer.”
