Trainer Clive Cox has made a happy habit of winning the Juddmonte Middle Park Stakes and CATURRA (Newmarket, 3.0) could complete a notable treble this afternoon.
Supremacy (2020) and Reckless Abandon (2012) have landed the Group One sprinting feature for the Lambourn handler and the industrious Caturra appears capable of springing a mini surprise today.
With seven races already on the c.v. the Mehmas colt certainly will not be lacking in experience and his encouraging debut effort on the Rowley Mile should also stand him in good stead.
Today’s venue can often find out participants who struggle with the undulations of The Dip but Caturra boasts prior knowledge of the intricacies having finished fourth to Forca Brasil in April.
Moreover, while early-season juvenile form arguably carries little weight come the autumn, it is worth noting that subsequent Group One winner Ebro River was behind the selection that day.
