Appleby Unfazed By Masar Queries
Godolphin trainer Appleby is in a confident mood ahead of the Gr.1 Coral-Eclipse Stakes which will be contested by Masar who finished third in the 2,000 Guineas.
Appleby believes Sandown - where Masar won the G3 Solario Stakes as a two-year-old - will play to his strengths, and he was delighted with the colt's racecourse gallop on Newmarket's July course early on Saturday morning.
Appleby is also likely to run the £2.66m Sheema Classic winner Hawkbill, who was a respectable third behind Poet's Word at Royal Ascot.
