Sir Prancealot’s Sir Dancealot Clear Best In the Hungerford

[Wandering Eyes]

Sir Dancealot (Ire) (Sir Prancealot {Ire}) and Gerald Mosse are a match made in heaven and the combination were on fire again at Newbury on Saturday as they simply breezed through the G2 Ladyswood Stud Hungerford S. Racing under a three-pound penalty as a result of his win in G2 Lennox S. at Goodwood July 31, the 4-1 shot was waited with in rear as Dream of Dreams (Ire) (Dream Ahead) took them along. As soon as he was given the command, the bay swept by that rival with a furlong to race and on to an authoritative 1 1/4-length success, with Breton Rock (Ire) (Bahamian Bounty {GB}) a half length back in third. “When I first started riding him, I really expected him to be a superstar and he will keep going,” Mosse said of his latest flame. “He’s a lovely horse and I’m not worried about the ground getting softer later in the season, he’s just a machine. I had traffic problems at Goodwood and I didn’t want to risk it today. I just wanted to get him relaxed and when he came I didn’t even press hard. Wherever he goes, I’ll be there.”
