1/1

€32,000 yearling, Yafta colt. Half-brother to Australian 7.5f-9f winner Taraashoq and French/German winner up to 1m True Value. Much better for debut when winning 7-runner maiden at Southwell (8.1f) 21 days ago, conceding first run. Big shout under a penalty.

Form: 9-1

Noble Testimony¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Billy Loughnane| T: E Bethell| BF

6/4

Cost €30,000 as a yearling. Dam lightly-raced half-sister to useful 11f/1½m winner Ashtara out of smart 9f-10.5f winner Ashiyla. 8/15, second of 4 in novice at this course (7.1f) on debut 13 days ago, conceding first run. Likely to improve and bold bid expected.

NOBLE TESTIMONY was unable to justify market confidence here on debut but he still showed plenty to work on and the 7 lb he receives from penalised-winner Tuscan Star may prove decisive.
