Goldie expects big run from Hawkeyethenoo

Jim Goldie is expecting Hawkeyethenoo to carry on where he left off last year when he makes his seasonal reappearance in the Connaught Access Flooring Abernant Stakes at Newmarket today.

The Hawk Wing gelding has been a tremendous servant to the Glasgow trainer, winning the Stewards’ Cup last summer and ending the campaign with a fine second to Maarek in the Qipco British Champions Sprint Stakes at Ascot in October.

“He’s wintered well and had a nice break. His last run at Ascot was probably a career best, so if he comes close to that I think he’ll run a big race,” said Goldie.
