The G1 Commonwealth Cup winner Time For Sandals continued her preparation for the G1 Betfair Sprint Cup at Haydock on September 6 with a spin over five furlongs of Newmarket's July Course on Friday morning. The daughter of Sands Of Mali won at Royal Ascot before finishing third in Goodwood's G2 King George Stakes when dropping back to five furlongs. “Coming here is as much mentally giving them a change of scenery, and a blow out, as it is physically, and we have done that,” said her trainer Harry Eustace. “She has done one bit of work since Goodwood and for a relatively inexperienced filly to then rock up in the Nunthorpe we felt it was all going to happen a bit quick for her. We have just tried to space her races out all year so we can plot our way in.” He added, “More than anything we would like to confirm what she did at Ascot and prove that wasn't a fluke and that would be nice to do. It is obviously a wide-open sprint division, but she has a good opportunity to put her hand up here as a flat six furlongs you would think would be about the sweet spot.” Time For Sandals, who is owned by David and Lori Bevan, has been ridden in all her races by Richard Kingscote, who leaves Britain to take up his contract in Hong Kong prior to Haydock. Eustace says that Kieran Shoemark is “top of the list” to take over riding duties. “I'm pretty sure Kieran Shoemark will ride her as the owners are very keen on him,” said the trainer. “We are trying to find someone who can commit to her next year as well and he is top of the list of people that can do that, so it is now up to him really.” The post Time For Sandals Primed for Group 1 Return at Haydock appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

The least-experienced in the line-up for Friday's G2 Al Basti Equiworld Dubai Gimcrack Stakes at York, Martin Tedham's Lifeplan (Kodi Bear) stepped up in style to land the six-furlong contest. Coming off a taking Thirsk novice win last month, the Declan Carroll-trained €165,000 Goffs Orby Book 1 purchase who traded at 13-2 tracked the leader Rock On Thunder (Night Of Thunder) throughout and gave all for Zak Wheatley to get up close home and win by a length as they drew clear. “There is no feeling like it, it's amazing,” Wheatley, who was unable to claim his three-pound allowance, said of his biggest riding achievement by far. “He jumped smart, but came back underneath me to take a lead and really took off. I wasn't sure I'd get past the leader, but he found that last gear. He's a beast–he's got such an engine and we've liked him for a long time. For the owners and the boss to trust me is massive.” The post ‘He’s A Beast’: Wheatley Enjoys Breakthrough On Kodi Bear’s Lifeplan In The Gimcrack appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.

Royal Ascot's G1 Gold Cup hero Trawlerman (Golden Horn) went postward as the odds-on favourite for Thursday's G2 Weatherbys Lonsdale Cup Stakes at York and, towing home fellow Clarehaven representative Sweet William (Sea The Stars), emulated his John and Thady Gosden-trained former stablemate Stradivarius by winning the two-mile York marathon as a seven-year-old. “The three-year-old [Shackleton] made it a test of stamina, Trawlerman was giving him a full stone in weight, and they made a lovely race of it together,” said John Gosden. “You go 15 rounds with this boy and you know you've gone 15 rounds. There's no sting, he just grinds you into the ground.” The 5-6 pick, burdened with a three-pound penalty for his Gold Cup triumph, broke on the lead before allowing Shackleton (Camelot) a narrow advantage passing the judge first time and sat on that rival's shoulder through halfway. Sent to the front with a half-mile remaining he came under pressure when Sweet William threatened inside the final quarter-mile and stayed on relentlessly under a continued drive to subdue that stablemate by an ultimately comfortable 1 1/4 lengths. Al Nayyir (Dubawi) fared best of the remainder and finished 4 1/4 lengths adrift in third. Pedigree Notes Trawlerman is the leading performer from two scorers out of G3 Deutsches St Leger second Tidespring (Monsun), herself one of three black-type representatives for G1 Prix Vermeille heroine Sweet Stream (Shantou). Tidespring is kin to stakes-winning G3 Munster Oaks third Loveisthehigherlaw (Kodiac) and Listed Radley Stakes placegetter Sweet Dream (Oasis Dream). Sweet Stream is the leading performer out of the stakes-placed Snug Dinner (Jareer) while Sweet Dream produced G3 Prix Penelope victrix Making Dreams (Make Believe). Snug Dinner, the best daughter of the stakes-placed Stand By Me (Home Guard), is the second dam of Listed Premio Royal Mares victrix Testa O Croce (Orpen).

By Jordyn Bublitz How fortunes can change in the space of a few weeks. On July 31 Dreams Of Eric fell soon after the start of his race at Cambridge. Last night the promising three-year-old colt was back at the track and in the winners’ circle after delivering a determined front-running victory in the NZ Farmers Livestock Mobile Pace. Drawn wide in barrier 8, Dreams Of Eric faced a tough task on paper, but co-trainer and lessee Nathan Delany was quietly confident in the colt’s chances after some sharp work at home. “When I saw the draw, I wasn’t overly confident,” Delany said, “but with the way he was working he definitely felt like a winner. He felt like he’d grown a leg.” Driver Harrison Orange took the initiative early, pressing forward from the wide alley and working hard to find the front. Once there, the son of Vincent controlled the tempo and kicked strongly in the home straight to secure his third career win. “It’s a good feeling getting a win with my own horse,” said Delany, “he’s such an honest animal and for him to just come out and go ‘bang’, it’s great.” In his previous start Dreams Of Eric had to be escorted from the track by the Horse Ambulance, with Delany fearing the worst. “I saw the way he fell and I thought he might’ve broken a leg. It took him a while to get back up,” he said. “I was really worried for Andre (Poutama) too, he was lying on the ground and never really got up.” Thankfully, the colt walked away from the crash with only grazed knees and last night was fittingly wearing the colours of the New Zealand Horse Ambulance Trust. Since making his debut in March, Dreams Of Eric has had 10 starts for three wins and four placings, a strong strike rate for a young horse still learning the ropes. Delany, who has leased the colt since he was a yearling, has been hands-on every step of the way, from breaking him in to getting him race-ready. “I did think he’d be able to win a couple of races, but I didn’t think he’d pick them up as fast as he has.” Looking ahead, Delany has his sights set on taking him to the Harness 5000 series in Ashburton this December. “I think he’ll really enjoy the trip away and thrive. That’s our main goal for this season.” View the full article
