GF as it had been two days prior. Report suggests no watering. Going Stick reading from 12:15pm. Stalls Centre. Light Westerly Wind = Direct Headwind. Meehan website pre-race wrt Etijaah = "improved on his second appearance to win gallantly at Sandown. He steps up a furlong in distance and possibly a chasm in class, but those battling qualities will bring him into the argument. Big run expected." Hannon website pre-race = "PLENTY of potential superstars have used the Haynes, Hanson and Clark Stakes as a stepping-stone to stardom, and we hope that Wentworth, who runs in the big two-year-old race at Newbury tomorrow, will join the likes of Shergar, Rainbow Quest, Shahrastani and Henbit in ending up in the penthouse. However, the Coolmore-owned Wentworth must pass this test before we decide whether to pitch into him a Group race this year or wait for next season, and everyone at Herridge is very excited about the Acclamation colt. Richard Hannon said: 'We have always thought the world of Wentworth and he showed at York that he learned plenty from his debut at Goodwood, where things did not pan out for him. He was doing all his best work at the end of the seven furlongs in the Convivial, so this mile should suit him well, and we think that he is right up there with our top two-year-olds.' " Ok Effort by Etijaah given how hard he pulled and how awkwardly he carried his head overall. Wound the pace from 2.5f out and other took time to get to him and tried hard, Smaller IC though. Chief Havoc bigger and more scope. Jughes doing his waiting-to-challenge bit on Wentworth 2F out then found the horse taking time to pick up. Did so into the last 1F and going away at the finish. Hannon website post race = "Hughesie said: 'Wentworth is right up there with our best two-year-olds and though the punters might have sweated for a while at Newbury, I was never in any doubt that we would get up. He ran a bit lazily and took time to find his stride when I pulled him out, but he has cut down a good horse in Chief Havoc. He will improve plenty through the winter, but I don't see him as a Guineas horse – he could be more one for the French Derby as he will stay the extended mile and a quarter no problem.' " |
