Scot primed for Beresford run

PAUL Deegan expects Bobbyscot to put up a good performance in the Juddmonte Beresford Stakes at the Curragh on Sunday.

The County Kildare-based trainer sends the Alhaarth colt to the Group Two at his local track on the back of finishing second to subsequent Champagne Stakes runner-up Viscount Nelson in a Listed race at Tipperary nearly seven weeks ago.

“He’s a very progressive sort of two-year-old, he goes on any ground and the trip won’t be a problem to him. He’s a very nice horse and he goes there with every chance,” said Deegan.
