Nannina set for Newbury return

Nannina is likely to kick off her 2007 campaign in the Juddmonte Lockinge Stakes at Newbury on May 19.

The Cheveley Park Stud-owned filly gained the biggest success of her career when proving two lengths too good for Flashy Wings in the Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot last June.

She will again be campaigned at the highest level this season and handler John Gosden is looking forward to getting her back on track.

“Nannina is in good form and stays in training and we’ll target races like the Nassau with her,” he said.

“She’ll probably start off in the Lockinge and as a Group One winner she can at least go there without a penalty.”

Also among Gosden’s older team is useful seven-time winner Day Flight, who has been pleasing his handler at home.

“Good old Day Flight is still with us and the Ormonde Stakes (Chester, May 11) is a possibility for him,” Gosden told At The Races.

“He won it comfortably before and would have won it last year but we elected to go to York and then the heavens opened.

“He’s in good form, the old boy, and I’m very happy with him.”
