Go Go Go HorseRace: ASCOT ON BYRON AGENDA Wokingham Handicap. Tom Hogan is gearing up for a rare Royal Ascot runner with Gordon Lord Byron within the Wokingham Stakes. The ultra-consistent sprinter has picked up where he left off last season, finishing either initial or second in his last four outings.
The two wins came in fast succession at Tipperary and Cork last month, whereas they were sandwiched between runner-up spots behind the progressive Maarek at Naas and at that very same course behind One Spirit within the Owenstown Stud Stakes.
"The Wokingham has been the arrange since for a short while," said Hogan. "He has been running well this season and he is an improving horse. "It was a decent run on however it absolutely was over seven furlongs and he did not quite see it out. A stiff six are good and he'd like smart ground."
Recalling his previous experiences in competitive British handicaps, the County Tipperary trainer said: "I was third within the Lincoln at Doncaster with Common World. He ran well in another massive ones too, thus i do know how onerous they're to win. "I'm delighted the owner will have a runner at Ascot. I bought him 2|for 2} grand as a foal and could not notice him an owner till he was two. it isn't very easy to try to to that in eire currently the builders haven't got the cash anymore!"
