It is all happening in Newmarket - Frankel tomorrow - lets see the Roll Royce purr...


Newmarket clerk of the course Michael Prosser expects no change to the ground conditions for the final day of the Cambridgeshire Festival tomorrow and that the going will remain GOOD.

He said: "We had some light rain today which didn't amount to 0.5mm in the rain jug and the forecast proved correct. We had showers from midday until 2pm and the sun is coming out now and it is meant to be a fine evening.

"We will have a heavy dew tomorrow morning and it will then be a beautiful autumnal day with temperatures about 15 or 16 degrees. The wind is due to diminish and we will have prolonged sunny spells.

"The ground is currently good and with the heavy dew it will remain that way tomorrow."

PLEASE NOTE HORSE CHANGE
SIR HENRY AND FRANKEL AT NEWMARKET TOMORROW

Sir Henry Cecil is eagerly anticipating bringing Frankel for a racecourse gallop at Newmarket before racing tomorrow, Saturday, September 29.

He will be joined in the exercise by Bullet Train and Specific Gravity (replacing Midsummer Sun)as part of the unbeaten Galileo colt's preparations for the QIPCO Champion Stakes at Ascot on Saturday, October 20.

Frankel was last seen in action when winning the Juddmonte International Stakes at York on August 22 and tomorrow's work-out will hopefully serve as the ideal stepping stone to next month's Group One on QIPCO British Champions Day.

Sir Henry Cecil said: "I am looking forward to bringing Frankel to gallop at Newmarket where he will be ridden by Tom Queally.

"I am keen for the experience to feel like a race for Frankel so will saddle at the course before the three horses take a couple of turns in the main parade ring.

"The gallop will be over a mile and one furlong and the intention is for Frankel to go to the winner's enclosure afterwards."

The gallop is scheduled to take place at 1pm with owner Prince Khalid Abdulla's silks being worn by all three jockeys. Joining Queally in the racecourse work-out will be two of Sir Henry's stable grooms, Shane Fetherstonhaugh (Specific Gravity) and Danny Dunnachie (Bullet Train). The horses will arrive in the Newmarket pre-parade ring about 12.40pm.

Frankel is officially the highest-rated horse in the world, having won all 13 of his starts.

Newmarket Racecourses managing director Amy Starkey said: "We are thrilled that Frankel will be with us at the start of one of our best day's racing of the year. And what's great from our perspective is that we are forecast a dry and sunny day for it.

"Saturday represents a brilliant opportunity for people in the East region - and beyond - the chance to come and get close to the greatest racehorse in the world.

"Horses like Frankel don't come along very often, so from my own perspective, I want to see as much of him as I possibly can - and the team at Newmarket Racecourses all feel similarly excited about the prospect."

Tomorrow's forecast is for a dry day with sunny breaks and temperatures of around 16 degrees Celsius.

LIGHTENING MURTAGH AIMS TO BE QUEEN

            Johnny Murtagh, successful 12 months ago aboard Lightening Pearl, will ride the unbeatenRosdhu Queen in tomorrow's Jaguar Cars Cheveley Park Stakes.
            The filly has stepped up on each of her three runs for William Haggas and the recent Group Two Lowther Stakes winner heads a field of 12 for the six-furlong Group One contest, to be staged as the second race on the Rowley Mile.
            Baileys Jubilee and Sandreamer were second and sixth respectively in that York race with the latter having landed an Italian Listed event subsequently. Both reoppose and Sandreamer's trainer Mick Channon is also represented by last-time-out Ffos Las maiden winner Jillnextdoor.
            Tom Dascombe is another to field two runners with Ceiling Kitty, the mount of stable jockey Richard Kingscote, and the William Buick-ridden Upward Spiral. Ceiling Kitty rounded off a three-timer by taking the Queen Mary Stakes at Royal Ascot before finishing fourth behind the colts in the Group Two Polypipe Flying Childers Stakes, while Sandown maiden winner Upward Spiral was fourth when a shorter price than her stablemate in the Queen Mary and enjoyed her third start recently by taking second in a Doncaster Conditions Stakes.
            Ireland go to war again after their 2011 triumph with Andrew Oliver sending outSendmylovetorose. The daughter of Bahamian Bounty relished the soft ground on her most recent visit to England as she maintained an unbeaten record in the Group Two Cherry Hinton Stakes at the July Festival. She has since been beaten over seven furlongs when weakening to sixth in the Group One Moyglare Stud Stakes at the Curragh.
            Jeremy Noseda fields the highly-regarded The Gold Cheongsam after she rattled off her third consecutive success in a valuable sales race at Doncaster. Frankie Dettori will again be aboard after steering her to two wins on the July Course, while Noseda will be bidding to win the race again for the third time following victories for Carry On Katie (2003) and Wannabe Grand (1998).
            Maureen had no luck in running when second in the Cherry Hinton Stakes. Richard Hannon's representative has since gone one better when beating Sandreamer in the Group Three Princess Margaret Sakes and turns out again for Hannon, who scored six years ago with Indian Ink.
            Winning Express is unbeaten in two starts and goes to post once mone for Ed McMahon with James Given's Jadanna, the mount of Graham Lee, and Michael Bell's Hoyam completing the field.
           
KINGDOM OF BAHRAIN SUN CHARIOT STAKES PREVIEW

            The £160,000 Group One Kingdom Of Bahrain Sun Chariot Stakes, first run over a mile and a quarter for three-year-old fillies in 1966, has an illustrious roll of honour that features revered performers such as Time Charter (1982), Indian Skimmer (1988) and five-time Group One winner Attraction (2004).
            The contest has been open to older fillies since 1974 and the distance was shortened to a mile in 2000. It held Group One status for the first time in 2004.
            Last year, Sahpresa bagged an unprecedented third victory when scoring by a comfortable length under Christope Lemaire. Rodolphe Collet's star was winning the race with her third different jockey, having taking the 2010 renewal under Christophe Soumillon and 2009 running under Ted Durcan.
            A field of eight will go to post this year headed by French import Beauty Parlour, who will be ridden by Christophe Soumillon. The three-year-old, previously trained in France by Elie Lellouche, triumphed in the Group One Poule d'Essai des Pouliches over a mile at Longchamp in May, but after a shock defeat in the Group One Prix de Diane in June, she was moved to Sir Henry Cecil's stable in July by owner Guy Wildenstein.
            She will be having her first start for Cecil, who will also saddle recent Group One scorerChachamaidee. The five-year-old was controversially awarded the Group One Matron Stakes at Leopardstown on September 8 after being indirectly hampered by Duntle, who went on to win by a short-head, a furlong from home.
            John Gosden and William Buick have been in tremendous form this season and will be represented by dual Group One scorer Elusive Kate. The daughter of Elusive Quality proved herself a leading two-year-old last season when making all the running to score in the Group One Prix Marcel Boussac and she added another top level success to her CV with a similar display in the Group One Prix Rothschild at Deauville on July 29.
            Siyouma, trained in France by Francois Doumen, has progressed into a high-class performer this season and comes to the Rowley Mile on the back a fifth-placed finish in the Group One Prix Jean Romanet at Deauville on August 19. She had previously finished third in the Group One Etihad Airways Falmouth Stakes run over a mile at Newmarket's Piper-Heidsieck July Festival.
            Mick Channon was the last British trainer to win the Kingdom Of Bahrain Sun Chariot Stakes after Majestic Roi's success in 2007 and he will be hoping Group Two winner Laugh Out Loud can reproduce her fourth in the Matron Stakes, while Irish champion trainer Aidan O'Brien will be represented by progressive Group Two scorer Up.
            The line up is completed Kevin Prendergast's La Collina, who beat the colts in last season's Group One Phoenix Stakes at the Curragh, and Godolphin's UAE Classic scorer Gamilati, trained by Mahmood Al Zarooni.

SAKHEE OH SO SHARP STAKES - WINNING QUOTES
                                                                                                                       
BREEDERS' CUP NEXT FOR WATERWAY RUN

Waterway Run, trained by Ralph Beckett, showed a fantastic attitude to get the better of Richard Hannon's Light Up My Life in the Group Three Sakhee Oh So Sharp Stakes.

The daughter of Arch travelled comfortably under a Jim Crowley and resisted the challenge of Light Up My Life inside the final two furlongs to score by half a length. Annie's Fortune, trained by Alan Jarvis, finished three lengths further back in third.

Beckett said: "I am very pleased with Waterway Run. The ground was probably on the slow side for her but she is very tough.

"She will go straight for the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies' Turf (Santa Anita, USA, November 2, US$1 million) because she was nominated for it as a foal and that seems the next logical step. She will like the better ground there and the syndicate who own her will have a lot of fun.

Crowley added: ""Richard Hannon's horse had made the running before and we didn't want to take each on but my filly settled well, travelled great and picked up nicely.

"You want uncomplicated fillies and you could ride her any way you want - she has got a nice cruising speed and you want to make use of it.

"It would be great if she went to the Breeders' Cup. She is very laid back and am sure that the travelling wouldn't be a problem for her. It would be very exciting if she does go.

"It's very difficult to say if she will be a Group One filly - I don't see why she shouldn't be and I think a mile will certainly be her best trip. There's no reason why she shouldn't progress again."

FIRST RACE

SAKHEE OH SO SHARP STAKES - PLACED QUOTES

SECOND FOR LIFE
                                   
Richard Hannon junior is hopeful Light Up My Life can pick up a similar race to the Group Three Oh So Sharp Stakes after coming off second best to Waterway Run in the seven-furlong event.
                                               

Pat Dobbs' mount had previously taken third behind Certify in the May Hill at Doncaster over the mile and had plenty of use made of her dropped back in trip.
                                                                       

The 5/1 chance led the field for much of the race and only found the 5/2 favourite a half-length too strong.
                                                           

Hannon said: "She put up a super performance but could not match the winner close home.
                                                           

"Lets hope she can pick up one of these races before the end of the year as she deserves to."

GOING AFTER THE FIRST

Jim Crowley, partner of the 5/2 favourite and winner Waterway Run, said: "Lovely - perfect good ground."

Pat Dobbs, rider of second Light Up My Life, said: "Beautiful good ground."

Michael Murphy, rider of third Annie's Fortune, said: "Good."

Mickael Barzalona, on board fourth Power Of Light, said: "Good."

Richard Hughes, partner of Califante, said: "Good."

Hayley Turner, on board All On Red, said: "Good."

Tony Hamilton, jockey of Jamesbo's Girl, said: "Good."

Paul Hanagan, jockey of Rayaheen, said: "The same as yesterday (Good)."

Tom Queally, on board Sinaadi, said: "Good."

CHIGUN FIRES TO SUCCESS

Chigun stepped up from handicap company to record a 5/1 victory in the Listed Mawatheeq Rosemary Stakes for trainer Henry Cecil and jockey Tom Queally.

The pair will gallop Frankel before racing tomorrow and demonstrated the rude health of Warren Place as their recent Ascot winner followed up by inflicting a neck success over the 11/4 favourite Thistle Bird.

Cecil's assistant Mike Marshall said: "That is a nice tonic for tomorrow and Tom said she dug deep.

"She is a nice, uncomplicated filly and the owners are keen to keep her in training so she is one to look forward to next year.

"It is nice to pick up some black type and she is scopey so there could be improvement to come."

Queally added: "She has improved no end and she has kept on getting better with each run. I found that she relaxed really well today. We have probably got it easy enough in front and she just dug out that little bit more.

"The more I asked her, the more she kept giving for me - it's nice when they try for you.

"I think whatever she does this year will be a bonus. She has the scope - she is quite big to ride - and hopefully we will be looking forward to her next year."

THISTLE FLIES INTO SECOND

Thistle Bird, who has three Listed wins and a Group Two second to her credit this year, failed to add the Listed Mawatheeq Rosemary Stakes to her win tally when a fast closing neck second to Chigun.
           
Roger Charlton, who trains the home-bred Selkirk filly for her owner Lady Rothschild, said afterwards: "James (Doyle, jockey) said she didn't really handle going down into the dip and that the leaders took his ground a little bit. When she hit the rising ground, she ran on really well.

"Maybe the course didn't really suit her."

Thistle Bird has run only once before at Newmarket when she was fifth in a Listed race last October.

Charlton added: "She has been on the go all season and has run really consistently. That's it for the year - we will probably continue with her next year."

James Doyle, who partnered the filly, said: "Thistle Bird has run well. She has had a long season now but she has run a good race and you couldn't complain at that - she's ran a cracker.

"She is better when the ground is fast but it's good ground out there to be fair."

THIRD RACE    
NAYEF JOEL STAKES - WINNING QUOTES

MORE GROUP TWO SUCCESS FOR PENITENT

Penitent bagged another Group Two success when making all the running under Daniel Tudhope to win the Nayef Joel Stakes by a neck from Andrew Balding's Side Glance. Premio Loco put in another good effort for trainer Chris Wall and was a further length and a quarter back in third.
           
Penitent joined trainer David O'Meara at the beginning of the season after being bought for 40,000 guineas and has won three of his six starts this term including the Group Two bet365 Mile at Sandown in April. He came to Newmarket on the back of two fifth-placed finishes in the Group Three Desmond Stakes at Leopardstown and the Group Two OLBG Park Stakes at Doncaster on September 15.
                                                                                               
O'Meara said: "He's been a great horse for me. The ground looked a little slower than good out there and that has definitely helped him. He's been a grand horse to win a Listed and a Group race at the beginning of the season and then come back and win another one at the end of the season.

"We thought he was a bit unlucky not to finish third at Doncaster on fast ground. He got hampered against the rail and had to check and make a second run. In Ireland he just ran a little bit flat but he was showing us plenty enough at home to suggest he retains all his ability.

"Ideally he would want even softer ground but Danny (Tudhope) gave him a fantastic ride. The owners have become very good supporters of ours. Nick Bradley, one of the driving forces behind Middleham Park Racing, was adamant that Danny should pop out, stay on the far rail and do his own thing. He got it spot on.

Tudhope added: "He is a very good horse on his day. You could probably put a line through a couple of his runs but he is not a horse to forget.

"The plan was to stay on that far rail and, if I got beat, I got beat - that was the plan and it worked. I was probably down for a little bit - they went such a strong gallop - but he is a good horse and more than capable. He's proved that today.

"He likes soft going but good horses can go on any ground and there is a lovely covering of grass out there."

Race Three - Nayef Joel Stakes
Second placed quotes

GLANCE TO ASCOT

Side Glance put himself on course for another tilt at the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes, sponsored by QIPCO, at Ascot on October 20 with his second-place finish in the Group Two Nayef Joel Stakes.

Andrew Balding's five-year-old has been a model of consistency this summer and the trainer is priming him for next month's Group One event after his seventh-place finish behind Frankel last year.

The 6/1 chance enjoyed an ideal preparation for that assignment by finishing a neck behind the front-running Penitent.

Balding said: "That was very pleasing and he has held his form well.
                                               
"I hope that will put him right for the QEII and that is where he will go now. He loves the mile there."

           
Third Race: The Nayef Joel Stakes
Third placed quotes
           


HONOURABLE THIRD FOR PREMIO

Chris Wall, trainer of the third home Premio Loco, was happy at the outcome of the Nayef Joel Stakes: "I am very happy - a good effort." said Wall "I thought it was a stronger race this year with more strength in depth than in some of the races he has run in this year. He was beaten just over a length so he has run very well."

Asked if the decision to run up the far rail was the right one, Wall replied "Definitely, the winner went there. I thought when I had walked the course that it was the tightest bit of ground, the middle of the track has been raced on quite a bit and is a little bit false in places and I thought it  was the right place to be.

"They went a proper gallop George (Baker, jockey) said he couldn't have gone any quicker early on. He doesn't quite come down the hill on this sort of ground but he stayed on up the hill really well, so an honourable third."

Asked as to his charges future plans the trainer said: "I think that is it for this year. He was in work in January because we were thinking of going to Dubai with him and then we didn't go but we did run him in the Winter Derby (Lingfield, which he won). We won't go to Dubai this time but if everything is ok we will give serious consideration to the Winter Derby."

Race four - Shadwell Fillies' Mile
Winner quote
                                                                       
CERTIFIED SUCCESS FOR GODOLPHIN

            Certify provided Godolphin with their third consecutive success in the Group One Shadwell Fillies' Mile as the daughter of Elusive Quality forged clear under Mickael Barzalona.
            White Moonstone and Lyric Of Light have taken the mile event for the previous two years, but neither matched the style and panache of Certify's success.
            The filly was backed in to 4/6 favouritism and was held up in rear by her young French jockey, before being given the office inside the final two furlongs and she easily drew  away to beat Roz by four and a half lengths.
            Certify signs off 2012 unbeaten in four runs and now heads the QIPCO 1000 Guineas betting with Paddy Power at 8/1, having been 14s prior to her success over the Classic's course and distance.

            Trainer Mahmood Al Zarooni said:  "She was a bit excited before the race and that is not normal for her. It is her fourth run of the year and I would prefer to put her away for next season.
            "I asked Mickael what he thought and he said she was excited and to put her away. I will have to talk to His Highness and I think it is likely we will put her away - she is a lady we should look after.
            "She was still a little green at Doncaster last time and she was in front a long time today and I think was still a little green.
            "Lyric Of Light won this race last year but I think that this filly has won the race better than she did. I cannot say 100% definitely that she is better than Lyric Of Light but she has won by over four lengths and Lyric Of Light only won by a head.
            "There are a lot of good two-year-olds who are not good three-year-olds but I hope she is not one of those.
            "I think she will stay further than a mile but the 1000 Guineas will be her first target."

            Barzalona said: "When you have a good horse, it makes it easier. She is a very nice filly - she has improved after each race and I hope that she can improve again from this.
            "She was a little bit keen and hung a little bit today but, when I asked her to go, she answered. She is very straightforward and kept going.
            "She has everything for next year and should be a good filly."    
                                   
            Godolphin's racing manager, Simon Crisford, added: "That was a fantastic performance and she has won very well. The result was never in doubt.
            "From her first win she has always looked very exciting, and when she beat that smart filly (Sky Lantern) who went on to win a Group One in Ireland, she showed her prowess as a leading juvenile.
            "It hasn't been discussed whether she will go to Dubai for the winter or stay here but the Guineas will be her early season aim and it bodes well that she has won over the course and distance."

FOURTH RACE
SHADWELL FILLIES' MILE - MORE WINNER QUOTES

TOP-NOTCH FILLY

Simon Crisford, the Godolphin racing manager, added: "I think that Certify has done it really, really well and she is a top-notch filly. It was a shame that Winsili couldn't run because she looked a very nice prospect but our filly did it well.

"Certify might have been a little bit isolated in the final furlong, when she was hanging a little bit, but she has always looked really promising ever since she won on her debut and she fulfilled all our expectations today.

"Mickael said that was a little bit funny today. She didn't want to go into the gates, she was a little bit awkward and maybe that's a sign that she has been running at the top level for her past few races and she might be telling us that she has had enough for the year.

"Mickael felt that her attitude was a little different today, that she was a little bit touchy and sometimes fillies can be like that at the end of the season. It doesn't matter because she has won a Group One, a Group Two, a Group Three and has done exceptionally well. She is a very, very good filly.

"Obviously, I have to talk with Sheikh Mohammed and discuss the situation with Mahmood (Al Zarooni), but I would imagine that it is more likely that she will be put away for the winter now. Whether she goes out to Dubai or not will be discussed in due course - we have only just seen her race  - and we need to spend a little bit of time talking about it.

"You can never be sure that she will make a top three-year-old. If you look back over the years, a lot of good juveniles haven't trained on and some have. Some horses that you don't necessarily expect to improve from two to three do improve. You can never be confident, you just have to be hopeful and all you can say now is that Certify is the leading filly of her generation at this moment in time. We have to wait and see how good she is in six months.

"Certify has won over a mile at Newmarket now and, all being well, if she has a good winter and turns up as a three-year-old with the same spirit and ability, then she has every chance to win the 1,000 Guineas."

DUNLOP DELIGHTED

Roz, trained in Lambourn by Harry Dunlop, came a distant four-and-a-half-length second to Certify in the Group One Shadwell Fillies' Mile but nonetheless delighted her trainer.
                                               
The Teofilo filly has only had four runs in her lifetime and this second comes on the back of victories in a Listed at Sandown and a maiden at Kempton with a disappointing first time out last of eleven now a distant memory. Dunlop said after the race: "Second in a Group One on the back of a Listed victory - I am thrilled. I just felt we had to take our chances with Certify and I am absolutely thrilled with her run.

"Obviously, the winner is very good and Jim (Crowley, jockey) rather felt our filly lacked a gear at the crucial stage and could be suited by going further. We have all the options open for her next year."

Dunlop added: "This is the best success I have ever had and  it was very satisfying beating my brother (Ed, who was third with Amazonas). I would think that will be it for this year, she needs decent ground and it is on the way out."

Jim Crowley, who partnered Roz, said: "I thought Roz ran a super race. She has improved since her last run at Sandown and I think there is more to come - she will be a better filly next year.

"It will be interesting to see what route she takes next year as there is a possibility she will get further but we will learn more after the trials."

Frankie Dettori, who was on board third home Amazonas for trainer Ed Dunlop, said: "We rode Amazonas to get placed so it's mission accomplished."

SEEK AGAIN STRIKES ON DEBUT

The John Gosden-trained newcomer Seek Again made an impressive winning debut in the Nunnery Stud EBF Maiden under William Buick when quickening smartly to score by two and a quarter lengths. Regal Silk, trained by Jeremy Noseda, ran with plenty of promise to finish second with a further length and a quarter back to Andrew Balding's You Da One in third.

Gosden said: "Seek Again is a nice horse little horse and he did everything right today. They went a normal maiden pace and he travelled nicely and picked up well.

"We could run him again this season because there are plenty of options for him in October. We will see how he comes out of this and then we will see where we want to go."

Regal Silk was making her racecourse debut for connections Cheveley Park Stud and she didn't disappoint when a promising two-and-a-quarter-length second to the winner Seek Again in the Nunnery Stud EBF Maiden.

Chris Richardson, managing director of the Newmarket-based stud, said after the race: "Obviously this was first time out and she is a filly with a frame to fill. We wanted to get a run into her and this was a nice introduction, but she will be a nicer sort next year. We will put her away now."

"I spoke to William (Buick, jockey of the winner) who said they liked the winner so Regal is quite promising."

Silvestre De Sousa, who rode the second-placed home-bred Pivotal filly who is trained by Jeremy Noseda, said: "She ran well, she is a nice filly and will improve for the run and I think she will get further than that."

Retrieve came with a late rattle to deny a back-to-form Harris Tweed success in the Listed Aqlaam Godolphin Stakes.

Harris Tweed had seen off Sea Of Heartbreak at the head of affairs and looked set for victory, but Frankie Dettori loomed large and stole the prize by a length.

The successful 5/2 favourite has now been with trainer Saeed Bin Suroor for a year and was having his first crack at a mile and a half in the UK having previously tried the trip when trained in Australia.

Bin Suroor said: "He has improved a lot and he loves this ground.

"There is no plan but we will try and find a Group race either here or abroad over a mile and a half  and he is a horse who does well at this time of the year."

William Haggas, who trains the five-year-old Hernando gelding in Newmarket, said:"The seven pound penalty (received for his win in the John Porter Stakes, Group Three at Newbury in April) killed us and Mr Charlton's horse (eventual fourth Sea Of Heartbreak) taking us on so far out didn't help. He ran a very good race and I am thrilled to bits - he ran his guts out as usual. We will have another go this year if we can get him in good form."

Richard Hughes, who rode Harris Tweed, said: "He has run a blinder as I went a hard gallop on him the whole way. I got into a battle with Sea Of Heartbreak, which I won, but I got into another battle and it was too much to ask.

"I think if Sea Of Heartbreak hadn't come to me, I would have won, but it was a hell of a run under a penalty."

Silvestre De Sousa who partnered third-placed Songcraft, said: "Songcraft has run a good race and he was probably beaten by a horse with a bit more class than him.
                                                                                                                                               
"He won over further last time and I think going back up in trip will suit him better."

SEVENTH RACE
STANDING FOR SUCCESS HANDICAP - WINNING QUOTES

ALLINGHAM AND CALLAN LEAVE IT LATE
Henry Allingham, trained by Roger Varian, justified favouritism with a last-gasp success in the Standing For Success Handicap. The progressive three-year-old came with a strong late run under Neil Callan to deny Classic Colori and Richard Hughes by a neck, with Shamdarley a further two and a quarter lengths back in third.

Varian's assistant David Eustace said: "We thought Henry Allingham would improve for the step up in trip and I was quite confident today as conditions were ideal. They went flat out on the far side and the near side group just bided their time and once he met the rising ground, he flew.
                                                                                                                       
"He is improving and he is pretty versatile - he has run good races on fast ground and soft ground. I think good to soft ground is ideal and it depends on what the owners want to do, but he might be put away or he is in the sales.

"The family are late developers and he could improve even more next year."

Derek Tompkinson spokesman for The Classic Strollers Partnership, who own Classic Colori, said: "He's run a cracker, clearly what he wants is an end to end gallop and that is what he has got today - that has helped him along with a little bit of give in the ground. Richard (Hughes) has given him a good ride but just got nailed at the end."

Richard Hughes added: "They went very fast early on, six furlong pace, it was mad. I thought our bunch was going a sensible pace but the others were going far too quick."


Race eight - Newmarket Challenge Whip
Winner and second-place quote

ODIN WHIPS HIS RIVALS

Odin provided Richard Hughes with his 147th winner of the season with his success in the Newmarket Challenge Whip.

The champion jockey-elect enjoyed a brace on the opening afternoon of the Newmarket Cambridgeshire Festival and followed that up as the Jeff Smith-owned Odin obliged as the 11/4 favourite.

Winning trainer David Elsworth said: "We have struggled all season but that is my 10th winner so I am now into double figures!

"The horse was in good form coming in to this which is why they made him favourite but he coughed like many of mine and he gave a bad scope.

"We gave him some medication and he bounced back and I think he may well come on for the run.

"He is a sweet little horse and is ultra-consistent."
                                                                       
James Fanshawe, trainer of the second home Exning Halt, said: "He ran well. It would be nice to get him winning as he has been placed a lot.
                                                                                               
"He is in the sales (Tattersalls Autumn Horses in Training) but we will keep going till then."
