Booster Back At Huntingdon Rooster Booster, winner of the 2003 Champion Hurdle, is on course to begin his seventh winter campaign over hurdles at Huntingdon on Saturday. The 11-year-old may no longer cut it with the best, but convinced connections to keep him in training when winning at Sandown in April before finishing a fine fourth under top weight in a valuable event at Haydock. The popular grey, trained by Philip Hobbs, will make his first appearance at the Cambridgeshire track in the Play Blackjack At Williamhillcasino.com Hurdle over an extended two miles. 'He runs at Huntingdon on Saturday and Richard Johnson rides him as usual,' said owner Terry Warner. 'I saw Richard at Uttoxeter the other day and he told me he´d been down to Philip´s yard to ride Rooster Booster in a piece of work and he said he went well. 'We´ll just see how he does on Saturday before we look any further ahead.'(C) PA Sport
