Bondy Boy is a two-year-old making his way through the early stages of racing under trainer
Geoff Oldroyd at Pocklington in North Yorkshire. The horse finished second on debut, which is an encouraging start for a young animal still learning the ropes. Oldroyd's yard has had a solid season so far, with 13 winners sent out, suggesting the trainer knows how to get horses competitive at this level. With only one race under his belt, Bondy Boy is still very much a prospect in development, and there is plenty of time ahead to see whether that debut runner-up finish was the sign of genuine ability or simply a close call on the day.
