William Muir Hails Breacher “The Best I’ve Ever Had” After Salisbury Debut Win | Racing TV

Описание: A jubilant William Muir hailed Breacher “the best I’ve ever had” following his successful debut in the opening race at Salisbury on Tuesday.

The Lambourn handler has enjoyed plenty of good days over the years, having trained top-class sprinter Averti in the 1990s and more recently saddled the hugely popular Pyledriver to win the Coronation Cup, the King George and twice at Royal Ascot.

It is seven years since the latter made a winning start to his career as a 50-1 shot for a Salisbury maiden – and after seeing Breacher (12-1) follow in his hoofprints by downing 4-6 favourite and Juddmonte blueblood Squadron, who is from the family of the great Dancing Brave, Muir could barely contain his excitement.

“I came here thinking if the horses are not sick he would win and he did, so happy days,” he said.

“He was entered at Sandown on Friday, but we said we’d come to Salisbury where Pyledriver won because it’s been a good track to me. I said ‘wherever he goes he’ll win, I don’t care what’s in it, if he’s right he wins’ – he’s the best I’ve ever had.

“The horses have been out of form and it’s difficult because they have a clean scope, then you blood test them and they look all right and then you run them and they run very poor and the next day their bloods are all wrong, so it’s very hard to pinpoint the problem.

“This horse a few days ago his bloods were good, but it reminded me of when I went with Averti first time. The horses had been out of form, Averti was going to Lingfield for the first Sunday racing ever and I said ‘if anything beats this I’ll have to pack up, because he’s a rocket’ and he duly flew clear.

“This horse worked with Ebt’s Guard before he went to Royal Ascot off level weights and he went at least as good as him not better. He finished fourth in the Hunt Cup off a mark of 104 and was giving weight to the three horses that finished in front of him, so we knew he had talent.”
