His outstanding horse Gracchus De Balme, winner of last season’s Randox Foxhunters’ Chase at Aintree and the Pertemps Champion Hunters’ Chase at Stratford, has caused the rethink, with Malam eyeing a second attempt on those two landmark races.
After the Stratford race Cheshire-based Malam (pictured above) stated that after some 40 years of ownership and 120 winners he was planning to finish and sell nine-year-old Gracchus De Balme, but today he said a rethink had taken place.
“We’re going to keep going for another season,” he said. “Hopefully he will go back to Stratford again and go for other similar races – and then I’ll retire. He’s just a very good horse as we saw with the way he jumped around Aintree and Stratford.”
Joe O’Shea trains Gracchus De Balme for Malam and also Sabre Rattling, an eight-year-old who finished second at Tabley on his latest start in May 2024, but missed last season.
Malam said: “Joe and I have a working relationship – he trains just five minutes from where I live and he has five or six very good horses in his yard.
“I’m looking forward to next season.”
