Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted September 23, 2024 Journalists Posted September 23, 2024 The unbeaten Defence Minister (GB) (Too Darn Hot {GB}), could become a first Group 1 runner in Britain for Qatar's champion trainer Hamad Al-Jehani in this Saturday's Juddmonte Middle Park Stakes. The winner of both of his starts for Wathnan Racing, Defence Minister also holds an entry for the Group 3 Somerville Tattersall Stakes on Thursday, but has now been supplemented for the Group 1 contest. Wathnan Racing's advisor Richard Brown said, “With all the rain and a very changeable forecast we want to have a range of possible targets for Defence Minister. He's a very promising colt but we know he wants decent ground, so we are keeping all our options open at this stage.” Defence Minister was bought by Brown on his owner's behalf for €210,000 at the Tattersalls Ireland Breeze-up Sale in May from Hyde Park Stud. He won on debut at Newmarket in August and followed that up with success at Haydock earlier this month.
