Comanche Brave
Comanche Brave’s travelling head lad Darragh Dwan said: “We are jumping back to six furlongs (1200m) for the first time in a while and we will give it our best shot. He is a very versatile horse.”
Dwan said they would be trying their best against Ka Ying Rising, who has taken the world by storm and looks “a bit of a freak.”
Satono Reve
Satono Reve exercised in the trotting ring in the international stable area and moved to the turf track for a gallop under his regular exercise rider Ryusuke Saito. After warming up in front of the grandstand, he worked from the 1600m mark, clocking 50.0s (25.5, 24.5) over 800m.
Saito said: “He showed an appropriate level of eagerness and was not affected by the heat, maintaining good energy throughout. He moved satisfactorily, as he felt really good all the way to the finish. He changed leads smoothly and his overall balance was at the same level to how he was in Japan. It turned out to be a productive piece of work.”
