GAVIN Cromwell has enjoyed a fine season to date and with 70 horses riding out daily at his base in Balrath, Co Meath, the dual Grade 1-winning trainer has a lot to look forward to.

Having already won a Champion Hurdle with Espoir D’Allen, he was placed in the same race earlier this year with Darver Star, who Cromwell hopes will develop into an above average novice chaser this season.
