HAT TRICK FOR SON OF RAINBOW QUEST
After two comfortable victories in a Doncaster maiden June 26
and a competitive Newmarket handicap last time July 16, Into
The Dark (c, 3, RAINBOW QUEST ex Land of Dreams by
Cadeaux Genereux) was sent off the even-money pick as the
highweight in the Garrowby Stakes at York yesterday. Taken straight
into a clear advantage in the early stages by Frankie Dettori, he
was always in complete control in the straight and was eased near
the line to beat Secretary General (Ire) (Fasliyev) by a convincing
2 1/2-length margin. “He has always been an improving horse and
this trip and ground suited him,” commented trainer Saeed bin
Suroor.
Into The Dark was winning off a mark of 100 here and now
fully deserves to take his chance in Group company next time.
He has an entry in the Gr1 St Leger on the 11th
September.
