Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted September 10, 2018 Journalists Share Posted September 10, 2018 Pretty Pollyanna (GB) (Oasis Dream {GB}) will bypass Sunday’s G1 Moyglare Stud S. at The Curragh in favour of tackling the G1 Juddmonte Cheveley Park S. at Newmarket on Sept. 29 due to ground concerns. The Michael Bell-trained juvenile had been expected to step up to seven furlongs for the Group 1 contest on day two of Irish Champions Weekend following victories in the G2 Duchess Of Cambridge S. and G1 Prix Morny on her last two starts. Joint-owner Tim Gredley said, “The plan is to keep her for the Cheveley Park. It was going to be a little bit complicated getting her out to Ireland and they had a lot of rain on Saturday morning. We were really keen to have a go at the Moyglare and try seven furlongs, as we are pretty sure she will stay over seven and a mile. The Cheveley Park is on our own door step so we don’t have to do as much travelling and it makes a lot more sense for the welfare of the horse. If it all goes well in the Cheveley Park, she is entered in the [G1] Fillies’ Mile [at Newmarket on Oct. 12] so she could have a go at that. We would have been confident going to the Moyglare, but just for the welfare of the horse, we think it is better to be patient.” View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
