Cleeve Hurdle target for Un Temps Pour Tout at Cheltenham
Tuesday 13 January 2015 10:06, UK
Un Temps Pour Tout is likely to get his season under way in the Galliardhomes.com Cleeve Hurdle at Cheltenham on January 24.
Bought for £450,000 in November 2013, he was beaten on his British debut at Haydock by Zamdy Man before winning at Ascot.
He was last seen finishing third at the Punchestown Festival and Pipe hopes he can develop into a World Hurdle horse.
"I would imagine that Un Temps Pour Tout will be entered in the World Hurdle," said Pipe on his website, www.davidpipe.com.
"Although yet to run this season, he is pleasing me at home and is not far from a run, indeed I intend to run him in the Cleeve Hurdle at Cheltenham on January 24.
"His form from last season looks rock solid and I believe he could prove even better over three miles.
"While further improvement is required to figure in a championship race such as the World Hurdle, it is not beyond the realms of possibility and he is thoroughly deserving of an entry."
