Godolphin trio shine in Melbourne build-up

They galloped over seven furlongs on turf at Sandown Racecourse, while stable companion and fellow Melbourne Cup hope Beekeeper jogged for the first time since his promising sixth in the Carlton Draught Caulfield Cup on Saturday.

Travelling head lad Tony Howarth said: ‘‘I’m very pleased with the horses. Hatha Anna and Pugin worked in good style, particularly the latter. Pugin did it all very nicely and the work demonstrated his well-being. I’m delighted with the way Beekeeper came out of his race and he moved well. Kerrin McEvoy, who rode him on Saturday, will partner him again in the Melbourne Cup.’’
