Beaver set to snare Supreme prize

BEAVER PATROL has been knocking on the door in some big races of late and can make a successful leap into Group Three company in the KBC Supreme Stakes at Goodwood today.

Trainer Eve Johnson Houghton has had the step up in class slightly forced upon her by the six-year-old’s steady rise up the weights but he appeals as a likely winner of what is a weak-looking event.

Beaver Patrol has certainly earned a crack at this seven-furlong heat after finishing second in the Wokingham, before claiming a not-too-distant third behind the useful Paco Boy at Group Two level last time.
