Baker sets sights on big pay day for Excellerator

George Baker is looking towards a potentially big payday for Excellerator in Thursday’s £250,000 (€315,500) Tattersalls October Auction Stakes at Newmarket.

Third in the Princess Margaret Stakes as the Warwickshire trainer’s first Group runner, she initially looked to have put in a disappointing follow-up effort at Chester when caught on the line by Aspen Darlin.
