Quilixios camp yet to decide between Boodles and Triumph
Final call later this week on top juvenile’s Festival destination.
A final decision on which race Quilixios will contest at the Cheltenham Festival will not be made until later this week. The French import is unbeaten in three starts for owners Cheveley Park Stud – completing his hat-trick with a Grade One success in the Spring Juvenile Hurdle at Leopardstown last month. He is set to make his debut for Henry de Bromhead after Cheveley Park decided to remove the eight horses they had in the care of Gordon Elliott following the photo of the Grand National-winning trainer sitting on a dead horse which emerged on social media. But whether Quilixios contests the Boodles Juvenile Handicap Hurdle a week on Tuesday, or potentially clashes with former stable companion Zanahiyr in the JCB Triumph Hurdle three days later, remains uncertain.Quilixios claims the Tattersalls Ireland Spring Juvenile Hurdle!
