Bon Bon Fizz

What makes Bon Bon Fizz particularly interesting is the team behind him. Gordon Elliott's operation in Longwood, Co Meath is one of the most powerful yards in Irish racing, and the numbers back that up — 209 winners sent out this season alone. That is a relentless production line of results, and when a trainer of that calibre keeps a horse in work and racing, it usually means they see something worth pursuing. Bon Bon Fizz raced just yesterday, which tells you this is a horse being kept busy and moving forward rather than one being nursed along cautiously.

Three races is not a lot to go on, but the shape of the form is promising. A win, a second, and one run where he didn't place — with the win coming most recently — suggests a horse that is improving rather than fading. Elliott's yard will have a clear picture of where she fits and where she is headed next.
