Nichoir

Nichoir is a three-year-old still finding its feet on the track. The horse made its debut a day ago and finished sixth, which is a common starting point for young racehorses learning how to race properly. With Christian Williams' yard in Glamorgan having sent out 25 winners already this season, there is proven expertise behind the horse, and a first outing is rarely taken as the full measure of a young animal's potential. It remains to be seen whether Nichoir will develop into a regular competitor, but the debut run at least gives Williams and his team real data to work from as they plan the horse's next outing.
