Meehan posts improved performance at Newmarket

Most Improved lit up a wet and miserable afternoon at Newmarket as he marked himself as a potential Classic contender in the EBF “Dutch Art” Piper-Heidsieck Champagne Maiden Stakes.

Beaten just a short head by a Godolphin newcomer on his debut at the track earlier this month, the Brian Meehan-trained Most Improved was sent off the 4-5 favourite to land a first career success.
