Kingman’s Kinross Another Rising Star at Newmarket

[Wandering Eyes]

The subject of support for Saturday’s Weatherbys Design and Print Novice S. at Newmarket, Julian Richmond-Watson’s newcomer Kinross (GB) (Kingman {GB}) showed why with an emphatic eight-length success for the Ralph Beckett stable. Recovering from a slightly tardy start to race in mid-division early, the 3-1 second favourite moved to the front passing two out and left Godolphin’s Doncaster winner Raaeb (Ire) (Raven’s Pass) standing from there. Finest Sound (Ire) (Exceed and Excel {Aus}), who had finished in the vicinity of the TDN Rising Star Palace Pier (GB) (Kingman {GB}) and smart Via de Vega (Fr) (Lope de Vega {Ire}) on his first two starts at Sandown, was a further 3 1/4 lengths behind in third giving the form a sound feel. Jockey Harry Bentley said, “It was very straightforward and I managed to get a nice tow into it–I wanted him to learn as much as possible and I gave him a slap down the shoulder before the three pole to see what I had and there was tonnes underneath me. He came out of the dip incredibly well and has given me all the right signals. The ground is good or good-to-soft, but it is drying and quicker ground will be no problem for him.”
