FINE FIELD IN STORE FOR CHEVELEY
http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...2&sub=&day=Mon
Quote:
Unbeaten filly Rosdhu Queen is among 15 two-year-olds left in the Jaguar Cars Cheveley Park Stakes at Newmarket on Saturday.
The William Haggas-trained youngster has won all her three starts, culminating in the Group Two Lowther Stakes at York last month. She now goes for success at the highest level in this prestigious contest also over six furlongs.

Quote:
Richard Hannon holds a strong hand in the Juddmonte Royal Lodge stakes at Newmarket on Saturday with the unbeaten Toronado and Havana Gold still engaged.
Toronado won the Champagne Stakes at Doncaster last time out while Havana Gold, who unseated Ryan Moore in France, has won all his other three starts.

Re: Horse Racing
LONGCHAMP OPTION FOR SHANTARAM
http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...2&sub=&day=Mon
Quote:
Shantaram may return to action in the Qatar Prix Chaudenay at Longchamp on October 6 after being forced to miss key engagements.
The three-year-old colt, trained by John Gosden, skipped the Great Voltigeur Stakes at York last month after having mucus on his lungs. Connections then ran out of time to have him ready for the Ladbrokes St Leger at Doncaster. He has not run since winning the Bahrain Trophy at Newmarket in July.

OPTIONS OPEN FOR DUNDONNELL
http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...e&sub=&day=Tue
Quote:
Roger Charlton is considering big-race options for promising colt Dundonnell.
The two-year-old, owned by Khalid Abdullah, was runner-up in the Champagne Stakes at Doncaster after winning at York and was taken out of this weekend's Juddmonte Royal Lodge at the confirmation stage.

Re: Horse Racing
FRANKEL FIRES NEWMARKET ENTHUSIASM
http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...=&sub=&day=Tue
Quote:
Officials at Newmarket are eagerly awaiting the appearance of Frankel at Headquarters on Saturday.
The Sir Henry Cecil-trained superstar will gallop at 1pm, which is an hour before the start of racing on Cambridgeshire day, in preparation for the Qipco Champion Stakes at Ascot on October 20.

LAUGH ON TRACK FOR CHARIOT
http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...=&sub=&day=Tue
Quote:
Laugh Out Loud is set to bid for Group One glory in Saturday's Kingdom of Bahrain Sun Chariot Stakes at Newmarket.
The three-year-old won a York Listed race and a Group Two at Chantilly earlier in the season, prompting trainer Mick Channon to head to Royal Ascot. While she failed to land a blow when well fancied for the Coronation Stakes, Laugh Out Loud was given a break after that sixth-placed finish.

Re: Horse Racing
CHAMPIONS DAY ON HORIZON FOR MAAREK
http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...=&sub=&day=Tue
Quote:
Trainer David Nagle is favouring a trip to Ascot with Ayr Gold Cup third Maarek.
The five-year-old defied top weight to finish just under four lengths behind Captain Ramius at the Scottish track last Saturday, just a week after notching a Group Three win at the Curragh.
Nagle was thrilled with his effort and is now looking towards the Group Two Qipco British Champions Sprint Stakes at Ascot on October 20 with his charge. However, while unlikely at present, a crack at next weekend's Prix de l'Abbaye at Longchamp has not been completely ruled out.

HANNON EYES DUAL SOMERVILLE RAID
http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...=&sub=&day=Tue
Quote:
Richard Hannon has declared Havana Gold and Glean as he bids to win the Somerville Tattersall Stakes for the third time in four years at Newmarket on Thursday.
The champion trainer took the Group Three heat over seven furlongs with Sir Parky in 2009 and Crius 12 months ago.

SIX TACKLE CERTIFY IN MILE
http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...=&sub=&day=Wed
Quote:
Certify faces six opponents as she puts her unbeaten record on the line in the Shadwell Fillies' Mile at Newmarket on Friday.
Godolphin's juvenile completed a hat-trick in the May Hill Stakes at Doncaster earlier this month and is favourite with some bookmakers for the 1000 Guineas.

Re: Horse Racing
CANADA JUST A PRECAUTION FOR FAIRY
http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...=&sub=&day=Thu
Quote:
Ed Dunlop has played down speculation that Snow Fairy could be re-routed from the Qatar Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe to the E.P Taylor Stakes in Canada a week later.
The Newmarket trainer has stressed he is merely keeping all avenues open for his top-class mare. The Arc at Longchamp on Sunday week, in which she finished third last year, remains the target for the seven-times Group One winner, subject to ground conditions.

Re: Horse Racing
CERTIFY PRIMED FOR MILE TEST
http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...=&sub=&day=Fri
Quote:
Mahmood Al Zarooni is confident there is more to come from Certify as she puts her unbeaten record on the line in the Shadwell Fillies' Mile at Newmarket on Friday.
The daughter of Elusive Quality looked a smart recruit to the Godolphin ranks when making an impressive debut in the mud at Newmarket's July meeting and she confirmed that impression when winning the Sweet Solera Stakes at the same track. She completed her hat-trick in the May Hill Stakes at Doncaster and now returns to Headquarters, albeit running on the Rowley Mile, as she aims to grab her first Group One.

BIG TARGETS IN TELESCOPE SIGHTS
http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...=&sub=&day=Fri
Quote:
Sir Michael Stoute's Telescope entered the equation for next year's Investec Derby after a near-flawless victory at Newmarket.
Send off the 8-13 favourite after finishing second on his debut at Ascot, he needed only to be pushed out by Richard Hughes to take the British Stallion Studs Supporting British Racing E.B.F. Maiden Stakes by two and a quarter lengths.
Coral offer 20-1 for next year's Classic, with Ladbrokes as short as 16s.
"He's a big horse with lots of scope," said Stoute.

Re: Horse Racing
KATE FIRED UP FOR CHARIOT
http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...=&sub=&day=Fri
Quote:
John Gosden feels Elusive Kate is in rude health for the Kingdom of Bahrain Sun Chariot Stakes at Newmarket on Saturday.
The Clarehaven handler is wary of the competition, though, and believes this season's renewal is as good as there has been in recent years. Four of the eight fillies are already Group One winners, with another three horses having been successful at Group Two level.

Re: Horse Racing
CERTIFY STORMS TO FILLIES' MILE WIN
http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...le+win&day=Fri
Quote:
Certify showed an impressive turn of foot to take her 100% record to four in the Shadwell Fillies' Mile at Newmarket.
Held up at the back of the field in the early stages by Mickael Barzalona, the 4-6 shot was asked for an effort and picked up in a matter of strides to go from last to first just over two furlongs out.
Mahmood Al Zarooni's charge was soon well clear and went on to score by four and a half lengths from Roz, with Amazonas third as Godolphin took this Group One prize for the third year running.

Re: Horse Racing
PENITENT BOUNCES BACK IN JOEL
http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...=&sub=&day=Sat
Quote:
Penitent (10-1) bounced back to his best form with a hard-fought win in the Nayef Joel Stakes at Newmarket.
The David O'Meara-trained six-year-old loves some cut in the ground and the rain that fell certainly helped him as Danny Tudhope had him up with the pace throughout on the far rail while Most Improved was prominent in the centre of the track.
Side Glance came out of the pack, but Penitent stuck to his task in gritty fashion to score by a neck with Premio Loco a length and a quarter back in third.

MAUREEN SET FOR CHEVELEY CHALLENGE
http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...=&sub=&day=Sat
Quote:
Connections of Maureen report the talented filly to have benefited from a two-month absence from the track ahead of her run in the Jaguar Cars Cheveley Park Stakes at Newmarket on Saturday.
The Richard Hannon-trained filly, who is towards the head of the betting for next year's 1000 Guineas, was last seen winning the Princess Margaret Stakes at Ascot in late July, having earlier looked an unlucky loser of the Cherry Hinton Stakes at Newmarket's July meeting where she was second to Sendmylovetorose.

Re: Horse Racing
STEELER SHOWS HIS METTLE
http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...e&sub=&day=Sat
Quote:
Steeler lived up to his name with a gritty display to land the Juddmonte Royal Lodge Stakes at Newmarket for trainer Mark Johnston and jockey Kieren Fallon.
Never out of the first two in four previous races, he was handy throughout off a steady pace. Frankie Dettori kicked for home on Artigiano and for a few strides he appeared to have caught Steeler flat-footed.

Re: Horse Racing
SUPER SIYOUMA FIRES IN CHARIOT
http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...e&sub=&day=Sat
Quote:
France's domination of Newmarket's Kingdom of Bahrain Sun Chariot Stakes continued as Siyouma ran out a ready winner for trainer Francois Doumen.
Following on from Sahpresa the last three years, Siyouma tracked the front-running Laugh Out Loud under Gerald Mosse and kicked on going into the Dip.
Elusive Kate looked a massive threat on the outside, but she could never quite get on terms with the 12-1 winner, who had three-quarters of a length in reserve at the line.

Re: Horse Racing
BRONZE STRIKES CAMBRIDGESHIRE GOLD
http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...e&sub=&day=Sat
Quote:
Bronze Angel emerged a last-gasp winner of the Betfred Cambridgeshire at Newmarket.
Marcus Tregoning's three-year-old had been off the track since Royal Ascot and only crept into the race as the final 35th runner.
Having raced up the near side for three-quarters of the contest, William Buick's partner (9-1) ended up veering over to the far side to join the other prominent runners. Mull Of Killough looked to have made a decisive break on meeting the rising ground, but he was caught close home by three-quarters of a length.

QUEEN RULES IN CHEVELEY PARK
http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...=&sub=&day=Sun
Quote:
Rosdhu Queen maintained her unbeaten record by making just about every yard of the running in the Jaguar Park Cheveley Park Stakes at Newmarket.
Sent off at 4-1, having won her previous three races, including the Lowther Stakes at York, Johnny Murtagh's mount just missed the break a little, but soon recovered to head the field.
Heading into the Dip it looked as if she would be swallowed up by Lowther runner-up Baileys Jubilee, but Rosdhu Queen stuck her neck out gamely and quickened up again to win going away by a length. Winning Express stayed on strongly to take second place, while Baileys Jubilee finished third
