Race entries
By NORSE DANCER, the sire of YANWORTH.
This fabulous Norse Dancer Gelding comes highly recommended. He’s from a deep deep Aga Khan pedigree, which is full of Graded Hurdle and Chase winners as well as Champion Middle distance Flat horses and Epsom Derby winners. It’s a potent match, a potent pedigree indeed.
He will start off in a bumper or straight over hurdles in 2023 and then head over fences, in either the Autumn of 2024 or 2025. Chasing’s what he’s bred to be, and we’d suggest a pretty quick and slick chaser, potentially over 2m.
Here's a video of him loose schooling and he’s a natural at his obstacles:
He’s a lovely chasing size too at 16.3hh so really tailor made for that job. He’s the perfect fit for the Tizzard’s who love a big chasing type, building horses to a crescendo for their Chase careers at big Spring Festivals.
Joe and the whole Tizzard team are fans of this fellow. He has the perfect mindset and is a pleasure to ride.
Racing Update (1st May): He is a fantastically well bred, giant of a horse, who took a while to come to hand. With the looks of a chaser, he towers above every other runner and has really come on for the experience Joe has given him. He schooled him this morning and he went well (see the video below.) His race entries/declarations will show on this page.
