Buck Jones is a 2-year-old still finding his feet on the racecourse. With two races under his belt and no wins or places to show for them yet, he is in the early stages of his career, which is entirely normal at this age. His most recent outing came just a day ago, when he finished eighth, following a ninth-place finish before that. Trainer
Noel Meade, based at Castletown in County Meath, has him in a yard that has been in excellent form this season, with 42 winners already sent out. For a young horse still learning his trade, being part of such a successful operation is a genuine advantage — there is quality horsemanship and experience around him every day.
