Third in three Group 2 contests over six furlongs last term, Shine So Bright (GB) (Oasis Dream {GB}) made light work of an extra furlong in Tuesday’s Listed bet365 European Free H. at Newmarket to add more strength to King Power Racing’s hand in 2019. Always comfortable in front with Silvestre De Sousa doing what he does best, the 5-2 second favourite extended into and out of the “dip” to score with authority by 1 3/4 lengths from Space Traveller (GB) (Bated Breath {GB}), with the 2-1 favourite Azano (GB) (Oasis Dream {GB}) 3 1/2 lengths away in third. “He was doing it on his own terms in front and he enjoyed that,” his rider said. “He’s a nice horse and he proved he had a bit of class here. He shows a lot of speed at home, so I had a bit of a doubt in my mind about this seven but he proved he got it well. I have doubts about getting a mile.”
