BUCKENHILL is making up for lost time, judged by his victory at Kempton yesterday.
Aged five, he only made his debut late on in 2014, finishing second...in a Huntingdon bumper!Two months later and trainer David Simcock had his charge ready for a second career engagement, this time in an 11-furlong maiden on the all-weather.
The son of Intikhab was dropped out last in the early exchanges by jockey Jim Crowley. Even so, he was never far away in small field of six and began to make headway from three furlongs out. Indeed, it was relentless progress and into the final furlong Buckenhill wore down Prairie Town and galloped out to score by a neck.
