Racing: Ffrench earns beverley praise

Royston Ffrench earned the plaudits after demonstrating his fine judge of pace when making all the running on the Richard Fahey-trained Altay in the Cherry Burton Stakes at Beverley.

Altay was gaining his fourth success and Ffrench said with a smile: ‘‘I am the only jockey to have won on him so I suppose I must be doing something right!’’
