Back-to-back victories hope for top trainer
Coventry Telegraph
|November 08, 2025
MASTER Vintner can make it back-to-back victories in the Virgin Bet November Handicap today for trainer Ralph Beckett.
The Kimpton handler won it last year with Lord Melbourne, who defends his Doncaster title, but preference is for his lightly-raced stablemate who has won each of his two starts this term.
Having finished third to St Leger winner Scandinavia on his racecourse debut in May, it was little surprise he was well supported on his first start for Beckett in September, when he landed a heavy ground 10-furlong novice with little fuss.
He stepped up to a mile and a half on the all-weather for another authoritative success, earning him a starting mark of 92 which could still underestimate his ability.
Duran looks to have plenty in his favour as he tackles six furlongs in the Virgin Bet Daily Price Boosts Handicap.
