Golf’s number 2, Lee Westwood, has bought into this horse along with his manager Chubby Chandler.
Chandler told the Daily Mail: 'We can't believe the way the horse has progressed. At Goodwood there were 27 Amir Khans and one Mike Tyson. We had Mike Tyson because he's a brute.
'Lee and I paid £15,000 for our half of Hoof It and we've had a lot of fun and made a lot of money because his wins have not been at short odds.'
