Algometer starts in Jockey Club Stakes at Newmarket


David Simcock could start Algometer off in the Dunaden Jockey Club Stakes at Newmarket on Saturday.

The four-year-old, who holds entries in the Tattersalls Gold Cup at the Curragh and the Coronation Cup at Epsom, may be given an outing in the mile-and-a-half Group Two as long as the ground is soft enough.

Algometer won a Group Three at Newbury on his penultimate start last season before finishing down the field in a Group One at Munich racecourse in November.

Simcock said: "He is in the Jockey Club at Newmarket and if it rains enough he will go there.

"You would like to think he is stronger this year.

"When he gets his conditions he should be capable of competing at Group-race level.

"He will go wherever it rains."
