William Buick had missed out on a future Classic prospect at Newmarket on Saturday, but his Newbury visit ultimately paid off as Words Of Truth (Lope De Vega) captured Saturday's feature G2 Dubai Duty Free Mill Reef Stakes.

Coming off wins at Ascot and Newmarket, Godolphin's son of the dual Group winner Beyond Reason (Australia) looked well-beaten heading to the final furlong as the impressive debut winner Into The Sky (Starman) cut loose but stayed on best to collar that rival close home and prevail by a length.

“He's gone from strength to strength and that was a tough performance from him on that ground,” Buick said. “It was an up-to-scratch renewal and he was very professional. He ticks a lot of boxes and should get seven.”

Into The Sky's trainer Jim Boyle said, “We are utterly delighted with him–he's a big, raw weak horse still and he was a bit green and lonely in front and lugged left a bit. I think the winner will prove to be a decent horse and they've pulled a long way clear.”
