Confront hits target at Newmarket
Confront joined the ever-expanding list of improving older horses trained by Michael Stoute with success in the opener on 2000 Guineas day at Newmarket.
Touted as a Classic prospect last season but disappointing in two runs and subsequently gelded, Confront reappeared in the stanjames.com Suffolk Stakes at the top of the handicap.
Sent off at 8-1, he was wound up by Ryan Moore to be fired down the centre of the track and win by a comfortable length and a quarter from Viva Vettori.
