The Back Nine: With Arthur Dobell

Arthur Dobell | Tattersalls

A horse for 2022: Akhu Najla (GB) (Kingman {GB}) with Roger Varian.

First season or proven: First season. Success stories last year like Ardad (Ire), Time Test (GB) and Zarak (Fr) among others show what an art form picking one is.

Speed or stamina: Stamina, on the Flat and especially in National Hunt.

Eat out or home cooking: Eating out.

Rugby or football: Rugby, although cricket is the sport outside horseracing I really follow.

Broodmare you wish you owned: Starlet's Sister (Ire). She's achieved so much and she's only 13.

Ascot or Cheltenham: Ascot. It has the very best of both codes.

Town or countryside: Countryside.

Wise owl to look up to: Jane George.
