Verdict

After decent runs here and at Hamilton, Sunnua was sent to Newbury for the Super Sprint and though unable to get close to stablemates who finished 1-2 she wasn't beaten far. That's better form than Kraftwork's close second to Barbarous Relic at Ayr though Michael Dods' grey will undoubtedly have learned plenty from the run. Beverley Bullet is speedily bred though it's MICKEY whose pedigree catches the eye as he's the fourth foal of a mare who has already produced three winners - he's taken to keep up the family tradition. Ikerrin Road is another with several winners in his pedigree and should be noted for the future.
