Karl Burke's 1000 Guineas contender Laurens pleases in workout


Karl Burke reports Laurens to be on course to begin her three-year-old campaign in May following a pleasing piece of work on Friday.

The Qipco 1000 Guineas at Newmarket on May 6 remains the likely starting point for the once-beaten Fillies' Mile winner, with the Musidora Stakes at York over an extended mile and a quarter 10 days later the possible alternative.

"I'm very happy with her. She did a little bit of work this morning and did it very well," said Leyburn-based Burke.

"At the moment we're all on target for May."

He added: "If she runs in the Guineas, she'll go straight there. If she doesn't go there it will be because we'll be going for the Musidora, but at the moment we're going for the Guineas."
