DAWN DELIVERS IN DEWHURST

http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...=&sub=&day=Sat

Quote:

Trainer Jim Bolger won the Dubai Dewhurst Stakes at Newmarket for an incredible fifth time in seven years with Dawn Approach.

Now unbeaten in six starts as a juvenile, Bolger's youngster was sent off the 30-100 market leader and heads into winter quarters as a red-hot favourite for the 2000 Guineas.

Kevin Manning had to ask the Godolphin-owned chestnut a few questions going into the Dip, but he gradually clawed back front-running stablemate Leitir Mor and forged clear to win by two and three-quarter lengths. Aidan O'Brien's George Vancouver stayed on for third to make it an Irish clean sweep.

SLEEK LEATHER POCKETS AUTUMN

http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...=&sub=&day=Sun

Quote:

Trading Leather gave trainer Jim Bolger a double on Future Champions Day with a gutsy display in the Autumn Stakes at Newmarket.

Kevin Manning settled in second and attempted to get first run on the other big guns, but it took him a long time to get past Glory Awaits, and in the meantime Richard Hughes looked ever so confident on Montiridge, even taking a pull before narrowly hitting the front inside the final furlong.

But Trading Leather showed great determination to battle back and won going away by three-quarters of a length from his fellow 5-2 joint-favourite, with Eye Of The Storm third.
DEADLY AAIM RECLAIMS CESAREWITCH

http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...=&sub=&day=Sun

Quote:

Aaim To Prosper created history by becoming the first horse to win the Betfred Cesarewitch at Newmarket for a second time.

The Brian Meehan-trained eight-year-old (66-1) has not been victorious since he struck in this race in 2010, but cashed in courtesy of a never-say-die ride by Kieren Fallon.

The favourite Countrywide Flame looked like collaring Aaim To Prosper, but Meehan's charge was not for passing and held on by half a length. Tominator, having his first start for Jonjo O'Neill, also briefly threatened, but crossed the line in third, with Sir Mark Prescott's Motivado fourth.

Aaim To Prosper drifted off the rail into the path of Countrywide Flame, but the runner-up was not making any ground at the line.
JUDGE RULES SUPREME IN ROCKFEL

http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...=&sub=&day=Sun

Quote:

Trainer Charlie Hills has a genuine Classic contender on his hands after Just The Judge maintained her unbeaten record in the Vision.ae Rockfel Stakes at Newmarket.

Winner of the Washington Singer at Newbury last time out, she was in the perfect position throughout under Michael Hills, and quickened up nicely.

Nargys met plenty of trouble in behind and when Kieren Fallon eventually extricated her from a pocket, she fairly flew home. But it was all too late as Just The Judge (6-1) had flown, and she crossed the line a length and three-quarters in front of Nargys, with Godolphin's Desert Blossom in third.

DUNADEN DELIGHTS IN CUP WORKOUT

http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...=&sub=&day=Mon

Quote:

Dunaden pleased connections as he worked over a mile in preparation for Saturday's Caulfield Cup in Australia.

Last year's Melbourne Cup winner is due to defend his title next month, but will first have a crack at this weekend's mile-and-a-half-feature after running in some of Europe's top middle-distance events this term.

SEVEN IN LINE TO TACKLE FRANKEL

http://www.attheraces.com/home/?ref=main+nav&nav=home

Quote:

A maximum of seven rivals will take on Frankel as he tries to bid for a glorious farewell with victory in Saturday's Qipco Champion Stakes at Ascot.

Sir Henry Cecil's colt is unbeaten in 13 starts and is almost certain to be retired to stud after this weekend.

Having proved his stamina in the Juddmonte International over 10 furlongs at York in August, the main worry for Frankel's connections this week is likely to be the forecast wet weather. He took part in a public gallop last week and looked stunning when pulling 15 lengths clear of his stablemate Midsummer Sun.

FIVE-STAR HUGHES WOWS WINDSOR

http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...=&sub=&day=Mon

Quote:

Richard Hughes virtually confirmed his status as new champion jockey as he rode the first five winners at Windsor on Monday.

He began with a double for his father-in-law Richard Hannon. Pivotal Movement (13-8 joint-favourite) won the EBF Joe Ward Hill Memorial Maiden Stakes, after which East Texas Red (5-2 favourite) claimed the davisbakerycaribbean.com Nursery. Hughes then donned the famous Khalid Abdullah silks for Amanda Perrett's Embankment (7-1) in the Ladbrokes Game On! Maiden Stakes.

The most impressive winner, though, was the Jeremy Gask-trained Magic Street (4-1 favourite), who streaked to a five-length win in division one of the Ladbrokes Mobile Handicap.

Richard Hughes said he was "over the moon" after the on-song rider secured a remarkable 10,168-1 seven-timer at Windsor on Monday.

The champion jockey-elect gave a hint of what was to come when he won the first two races on the eight-race card for his father-in-law Richard Hannon.

SOCIETY TOPS SPRINT CONTENDERS

Quote:

Society Rock remains in the mix to add the Qipco British Champions Sprint to his impressive roll of honour at Ascot on Saturday.

James Fanshawe's sprinter won the Haydock Sprint Cup last time out and already has a Golden Jubilee Stakes on his record over the same course and distance he will tackle this weekend.

EXCELEBRATION SEEKS QEII GLORY

http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...e&sub=&day=Tue

Quote:

Last year's runner-up Excelebration heads a list of 10 horses in line to challenge for Saturday's Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at Ascot.

After finding only Frankel too good on his final run for Marco Botti 12 months ago, the four-year-old has registered two victories for Aidan O'Brien this term, including in the Group 1 Jacques Le Marois at Deauville when last seen in August.

O'Brien has also left in Declaration Of War and Requisition.

HILLS HAILS RETIRING BROTHER

http://www.attheraces.com/article.as...=&sub=&day=Tue

Quote:

Charlie Hills has had no thoughts as yet about a new stable jockey after his brother Michael announced he will retire at the end of the current campaign.

The 49-year-old has ridden over 2,000 winners and signs off just months after his twin brother Richard decided the time was right to call it quits.

Hills won the 1996 Derby on the William Haggas-trained Shaamit and was champion apprentice in 1983. Among the best horses he rode were Royal Applause, trained by his father Barry, and Pentire, who won the King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes and Irish Champion Stakes.

Man-of-the-moment Richard Hughes continued his amazing run of success by winning three races at Leicester on Van Der Neer, Tunnager Grove and Guiletta.

Having won seven of eight races at Windsor on Monday, Hughes arrived at the Midlands track full of confidence and covered up the 2-1 second favourite Van Der Neer before unleashing him with a furlong to run in the Wymeswold Conditions Stakes.

WALKON TO SWITCH ON POWER

Walkon has been introduced into the Paddy Power Gold Cup betting at 14-1 by the sponsors after trainer Alan King confirmed the grey would have an entry for the first major handicap of the new National Hunt season.

Last seen in the Scottish National, in which he was pulled up, the second-season novice would be dropping markedly in trip for the Cheltenham feature on November 17

FRANKEL'S BROTHER WELL BEATEN

Morpheus, Frankel's Oasis Dream half-brother, finished well out of the frame on his racecourse bow at Nottingham.

The Sir Henry Cecil-trained colt was sent off at odds of 3-1 to make a winning debut in the British Stallion Studs Supporting British Racing EBF Maiden Stakes but never really looked like making his mark in the mile heat.
