Kingsclere Stables will have representation in all three three-year-old stakes races this weekend, and trainers Roger James and Robert Wellwood are hopeful they can get their hands on some of the spoils. Circus Maximus gelding Road To Paris (NZ) (Circus Maximus) has made quite the impression on the Cambridge horsemen, which was enhanced by his last start victory over 1400m at Avondale. They have taken a patient approach with the gelding to date, and they are looking forward to testing him over a mile for the first time when they head to Otaki on Sunday in the Gr.3 Jennian Homes Wellington Stakes (1600m), with his performance dictating future plans. “He is guy with a real future,” James said. “We have taken the slow road a little bit. He is a later maturing three-year-old and we are going to find out a little more about him on Sunday. “We don’t really know what his best distance is. At the end of his two-year-old year we thought he was our Derby horse for next year. He has got a bit of sharpness about him, and does he need to go a mile-and-a-half? We are going to learn that the deeper we go into his preparation. “With three-year-olds that can hopefully run a sharp mile, which we will find out on Sunday, there are a lot of options open to them. He is a very interesting runner.” James is also excited about the prospects of unbeaten filly Fairy Dream (NZ) (Proisir) in the Listed The O’Learys Fillies Stakes (1340m) at Wanganui on Saturday. The daughter of Proisir won on debut on the synthetic at Cambridge in September, and while she is untested on the grass on raceday, James believes she will be better suited on that surface. “I don’t think the turf will be of any concern as long as it is in good order,” James said. “I think she will be better on the turf than on the poly. “She is a light-framed filly who we have purposefully given good time to given that we hope there are a lot of options ahead of her this season. “She had a quiet trial the other day and I thought for a one-win horse the trial was very good. “It is not the easiest field, there are three or four there with good credentials and she is going to have to live up to what we think of her to win it. She is back to three-year-old fillies company and we do like her.” The stable will also be chasing age group success at Ellerslie on Saturday with three-year-old Per Incanto gelding To The Max (NZ) (Per Incanto) in the Listed Trevor & Corallie Eagle Memorial 3YO (1500m). To The Max is another last-start winner, having been victorious over 1230m at Arawa Park earlier this month, and James believes he will lap up the extra distance this weekend. “He was very impressive last start, albeit he covered no ground,” James said. “He did sprint quickly when he was asked. “This race has come up quick enough, but we are happy to be there. I think the 1500m will really suit him. He was a bit outpaced early the other day and I think the greater distance will really play into his hands.” View the full article
