Mawatheeq follows Nayef route

Mawatheeq will try to emulate Nayef when he lines up for the Emirates Airline Champion Stakes at Newmarket tomorrow.

Nayef also won the Cumberland Lodge Stakes at Ascot as a three-year-old in 2001, after which he secured glory in the 10-furlong Group One for owner Sheikh Hamdan Al Maktoum and jockey Richard Hills.
