I am delighted to say the forthcoming edition of One Jump Ahead will include an interview with leading owner Rich Ricci. I interviewed Rich on Wednesday afternoon running through his powerful string. Responsible for eight Grade 1 winners last season, plus an Irish National courtesy of Burrows Saint, he has 17 novice hurdlers for this winter. The exciting aspect is the fact that ten of them are new recruits from France. The majority of his 'greats,' namely Benie Des Dieux, Douvan, Mikael D'Haguenet, Min, Vautour and Vroum Vroum Mag began their careers in France and I will be surprised if there aren't a couple of future stars, at least, amongst this season's novice hurdlers. Needless to say, I have put a couple of them in the Top 40 Prospects.
