Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted June 17, 2021 Journalists Share Posted June 17, 2021 Impressive when getting off the mark over this five-furlong trip at Hamilton eight days previously, Sheikh Rashid Dalmook Al Maktoum's Perfect Power (Ire) (Ardad {Ire}) swooped late to take Thursday's G2 Norfolk S. and provide his Overbury Stud-based first-season sire a first black-type winner. Drawn in 10 and forced to come up the middle which had looked unfavourable on the first two days, the Richard Fahey-trained £110,000 Goffs UK Breeze Up graduate was outpaced and towards rear at halfway but delivered the same dramatic acceleration that he had in Scotland last week to arrive into contention towards the stand's side late on. In the final stride, Paul Hanagan had driven the 14-1 shot past Go Bears Go (Ire) (Kodi Bear {Ire}), who had led the far-side group throughout and it was Perfect Power who had prevailed by a head with them wide apart. There was a nose back to Project Dante (GB) (Showcasing {GB}) in third, with the 5-1 favourite Cadamosto (Ire) (No Nay Never) was close up in fourth on the far side.
