 * QPQ not needed as it isn't a self nomination
 * Article created by Tigerboy1966 on 15 December 2013, and has 5123 characters of readable prose
 * Every paragraph is sourced, albeit some a little sparsely, but I think given the subject of the article this is acceptable
 * In the lead, "After winning both of his races as a two-year-old he improved to become one of the leading British-trained three-year-olds in 1990". Perhaps rather than 'improved', 'became'?
 * In 'background', " He was one of the best horses sired by Diesis, the top-rated European two-year-old of his generation" should perhaps be " He was one of the most successful horses sired by Diesis, the top-rated European two-year-old of his generation".
 * Earwig @ Toolserver found no copyvios
 * Hook is interesting and well sourced (perhaps amount in £?)
 * Summary: I would like a reply to the couple of wording questions, but otherwise I think that this is good. Thanks, Mat  ty  .  007  18:22, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
