Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted June 23, 2018 Journalists Share Posted June 23, 2018 Impressive when making all over this five-furlong trip at Haydock June 7, Clipper Logistics’ Soldier’s Call (GB) (Showcasing {GB}) dominated his stand’s-side group and eventually the entire field in the Listed Windsor Castle S. for a first Royal success for the Archie Watson stable. Allowed to roll by Danny Tudhope, the 12-1 shot was always too quick for his contemporaries on his side but it was not until the furlong pole that he got to those racing up the centre and far side. Tackled by Sabre (GB) (Mayson {GB}) from there, the bay held on to score by a half length, with Dom Carlos (Ire) (Gale Force Ten {GB}) 1 3/4 lengths away in third. “It was a great performance–he has so much speed,” his rider said. “I was a bit behind the far side, but I was able to do my own thing and wasn’t hassled.” Watson commented, “It’s only our second season training and I thought I might have to wait longer for this. Joe Foley, Steve Parkin, Clipper Logistics and Federico Barberini have put a lot of faith in me and sent me some proper kit, so I’m just delighted I can repay that.” SOLDIER’S CALL (GB), 129, c, 2, Showcasing {GB}–Dijarvo {GB} {SW-Fr & GSP-Aus}, by Iceman {GB}). (85,000gns Ylg ’17 TAOCT). O-Clipper Logistics; B-Llety Farms (GB); T-Archie Watson; J-Daniel Tudhope. £51,039. Lifetime Record: 3-2-1-0, £59,394.
