Fearless a half-brother to the very talented Willie Mullins' dual purpose performer THOMAS HOBSON made the perfect start to his career when making most to win the “Junior” Open National Hunt Flat Race at Wincanton in December. He ran slightly green close home and was distracted by a loose horse but was always in control and arguably value for more than the winning distance. He followed that debut run with a gallant effort in the very competitive Listed Open National Hunt Flat Race at Cheltenham on New Year’s Day.
