Soviet Song on course for Lockinge
The James Fanshawe-trained six-year-old stretched her legs in Newmarket over the weekend as she limbers up for what connections hope will be another profitable campaign.
“She did her first bit of work on Saturday and really enjoyed that. She looks great and her feet are good,” said Fanshawe.
“We’ll perhaps do a bit more with her to see how she is really going but she is enjoying it and is full of enthusiasm.
“We’ve got a bit of time and hopefully we can get there (to Newbury), otherwise there is the Ridgewood Pearl in Ireland the following week.
“But I’d love to have a go at the Lockinge if we could.”
Meanwhile, Silca’s Sister and Opera Cape, Godolphin’s leading hopes for the Stan James 1000 and 2000 Guineas, have arrived safely in Britain.
The pair, both purchased for undisclosed sums at the end of last year, were among a group of horses shipped to Newmarket after spending the winter at Godolphin’s base in Dubai.
