Kevin Ryan’s multiple Stakes winner Washington Heights is all set to bid for a fourth Listed win at Deauville on Sunday.
The six-year-old son of Washington DC has amassed nearly £400,000 in career prize money to date, claiming his latest big win in the rearranged Listed Achilles Stakes at Carlisle in late May this year.
Kevin Ryan Reports Sprinter in Fine Form
Last year’s City Walls Stakes winner has fared well abroad before, having won the Bro Park Sprint in Sweden and finished runner-up in the Group 3 Dukhan Stakes in Qatar, and is one of 18 possible runners in the five-furlong Listed Prix Du Cercle this weekend.
Hambleton’s Director Of Racing Simon Turner provided an upbeat report ahead of his latest venture abroad. “Kevin reports Washington Heights to be training as well as ever. He has always taken his travelling well and a reproduction of his latest win should put him bang in the mix. With that in mind, we head across the Channel optimistic of another big run”
Another winning Goffs Premier Sale Graduate
The tale of Washington Heights is yet another success story from the happy hunting ground of the Goffs Premier Sale, from where Hambleton and Kevin Ryan have enjoyed so many winners from with their Goffs Premier Sales Syndicate recruits.
It’s a tried and trusted system and Washington Heights, a winner for his owners in every year he has raced to date, has provided his racehorse syndicate with some amazing memories along his journey so far.
Owners Hope for More Big-Race Success
Second in a big sales race at York’s Ebor meeting as a two-year-old, he’s taken his owners to Ireland, France, Sweden and Qatar, more often than not acquitting himself with huge credit on the world stage.
A Group 3 winner closer to home in Newmarket and a two-time visitor to Royal Ascot, his owners are excitedly looking forward to seeing how their star performer with Kevin Ryan gets on his latest venture abroad this weekend.
