Ace can come up trumps

SPANISH ACE looked a likely sort early in his career and although things have not exactly worked out to plan, he should be up to the task at Warwick today.

A smart juvenile who finished second in a Curragh Group Two, the six-year-old failed to hit the expected heights and his first three seasons produced just two wins and two places from 23 starts.

Milton Bradley’s charge looked to have picked up last season when he joined the stable of the ‘sprint king’ as the horse proceeded to win his first two starts for his new yard, scoring over the minimum trip at Warwick and Folkestone.
