Richard Fahey gives a positive update on Fev Rover ahead of her Classic tilt on Sunday as she takes on the home team in the Irish 1,000 Guineas.
Rover aims for Irish 1,000 Guineas return
We’re taking FEV ROVER over to the Curragh on Sunday for the Tattersalls Irish 1,000 Guineas and it’s exciting to have a filly with a chance of winning a Classic.
It will be tough, but she is fit and well and the stiff nature of the track will suit her, I’m sure.
I’ve been preaching all year that I’d love to see her on quicker ground, well, we’re not going to get that, but she does handle soft ground and the more of a stamina test that it is should play to her strengths.
She’s been very good at home, we’ve been very pleased with her since the Guineas. She’s a very straightforward filly really and we’ve had no complications. Fingers crossed she can run a big race.
York hero Mr Lupton aiming for Wokingham
It was great to win with MR LUPTON at York and it’s all systems go for the Wokingham at Royal Ascot now. He’s been a star for us, a Musley Bank legend really.
He’s eight now but he’s still doing it at a very high level and when you look back at what he’s done you really appreciate his achievements - that was his 10th win, and he’s been a real pleasure to have around the place.
