Oisin Murphy updates us on his health, his good run of form, exciting Kameko colt New Century and his Saturday rides at Newbury, featuring Kikkuli.
Murphy rides the Harry Charlton-trained Kikkuli in the Group 2 Hungerford Stakes at Newbury on Saturday with the three-year-old Kingman half-brother to Frankel taking on his elders for the first time.
Murphy said: “I rode him last week at Kempton, and he felt super he didn't do any hard work.
"He's a quality horse. This is a tough assignment, a very competitive Group Two as you would expect and it’ll be interesting to see how the race takes shape.
"But hopefully if I can get Kikkuli to travel and relax, and not over-race, he's a horse that we haven't seen the best of yet.”
