American Hope - Good run in the Abernant

We were pleased with American Hope's run in the G3 Abernant Stakes at Newmarket on thursday. He has always been a keen going sort and although a bit slow away against some seasoned sprinters he was quickly on the pace. He was in 4th place but didn't handle the undulations very well and was overtaken in the final furlong. He was eventually 7th and was beaten 4 3/4L in what was a strong contest.
With few opportunities around off his handicap mark of 103 he will now contest a couple of the Heritage Handicaps ie the Victoria Cup and the Wokingham.
