In depth
Verdict
CRAIGNEICHE is a half-brother to a winning jumper and out of a winning bumper. He’s by Flemensfirth so shouldn’t be short of basic speed and Nico de Boinville has travelled north to partner Nicky Henderson’s newcomer. Belfast Banter has placed in a point and also represents a powerful NH yard while Apache Creek is a €34,000 daughter of Shantou that should have a future.
