PASSAGE OF TIME HEADS FOR SAINT-CLOUD GROUP 1
Henry Cecil will have the chance to end 2006 with a Group One
winner after yesterday supplementing Passage of Time to the
Criterium de Saint-Cloud on Sunday.
The daughter of Dansili stepped up on her maiden success at
Newmarket in August when hacking up in a 1m Listed event at the
same venue last month, and that run encouraged Cecil to aim her at
the final juvenile Group 1 event of the European season.
The Khalid Abdullah-trained filly worked nicely on the Al
Bahathri Polytrack in Newmarket yesterday morning and was given the
green light to take her chance at Saint-Cloud afterwards.
Cecil, the former champion whose last Group 1 win was with Beat
Hollow in 2000, said “ The idea at the moment is to run in the
Criterium de Saint-Cloud. She worked nicely this morning and I have
been pleased with her since her last win at
Newmarket.”
