Stone Of Folca claims overdue win

Stone Of Folca, described by John Best as the fastest horse he has ever trained, finally secured his first victory in the Duke Of Cumberland And Old Neptune Median Auction Maiden Stakes at Folkestone this afternoon.

The Kodiac colt, appropriately owned by Folkestone Racecourse Owners Group, showed up well in both the Windsor Castle Stakes and the Norfolk Stakes at Royal Ascot as a juvenile, and ran the talented Zebedee close in the Molecomb Stakes at Glorious Goodwood.
