We add another jumps star with Joshua Des Flos heading to Howe Hills

We are thrilled to welcome this exciting chaser in the making to Team Battenberg, bringing top northern trainer Rebecca Menzies back into the Ursa fold.

Joshua Des Flos has enjoyed a good start to his career, winning over hurdles at Ayr in January and placing on each of his six other runs under rules for Joseph O’Brien and Stuart Crawford.

Rated 121 over hurdles and a horse that appreciates proper winter ground, he will be an exciting novice chaser for the 24/5 NH season.

There’s loads to be excited about too - his half brother Balko Des Flos came second in the 2021 Grand National and won the 2018 Ryanair Chase at the Cheltenham Festival.

Another half brother, Salut Flo, won the 2012 Byrne Group Plate at the Cheltenham Festival.

This is a horse to be truly excited by - and we are delighted to team back up with Rebecca and the gang at Howe Hills.
