Surprise winner of the Brown Advisory at the Cheltenham Festival last season
Introduction
Lecky Watson ended last season with three wins, the undoubted highlight of which was his somewhat unexpected victory in the Brown Advisory Novice Chase at the Cheltenham Festival.
Willie Mullins had a number of seemingly better fancied horses in the field that day such as Ballyburn and Dancing City but it was 20/1 shot Lecky Watson who was the comfortable winner in the end.
Victory in one of the top staying novice chases such as the Brown Advisory usually leads to the horse in question trying to step up into Gold Cup company the following season but Lecky Watson has had something of a disappointing season this year.The eight-year-old gelding has raced five times but is yet to finish any better than seventh, although he has been set some tough challenges.
Based on what he has achieved since that win at Cheltenham, a mark for the Grand National of 158 might look a big ask for this son of Valirann but Mullins is such a specialist at getting these classy horses spot-on for a tilt at the Aintree Grand National that Lecky Watson definitely shouldn’t be discounted.
