Waady enters Haydock equation
Monday 6 July 2015 13:42, UK
John Gosden feels the Sprint Cup at Haydock should be the major objective for the fast-improving Waady.
The three-year-old overcame trouble in running to secure his fifth victory from seven starts in Saturday's Coral Charge, his fourth triumph from as many starts at Sandown.Next month's Nunthorpe at York was mooted as a possible objective in the immediate aftermath, but Gosden believes the longer trip at Haydock in September could be more suitable.
He said: "Waady's big target I think should be the Sprint Cup at Haydock, rather than charging off elsewhere.
"I think the six furlongs there will really suit him as he likes a stiff five furlongs.
"He will have a break now as we just need to freshen him up.
"We've got to discuss this with the owner (Hamdan Al Maktoum) first, but I think it's a good race to have a look at .
"He'll be better on fast ground, but soft ground wouldn't be a concern as he won his maiden at Nottingham on it."
