About
Valadon is a 6yo bay trained by H Fry in Corscombe. He is by the stallion Vadamos out of Art Festival. To date he has won three races. On 23 Jan 2024 at Newbury he captured his biggest victory, taking the $5,446 Junior National Hunt Hurdle. He has been a profitable runner for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have yielded a 20% return on investment.
