A DAYAR could be the horse to put the Derby back on its perch after clocking an excellent 118 in winning at Epsom on June 5.
There has been a sad pattern in recent years of the big-race winner sinking without trace but this son of Frankel looked special in scoring by a convincing four and a half lengths.
The tacky ground clearly suited him and he has the St Leger written all over him. He powered through the line so the longer distance should be ideal and we’re likely to get testing ground at Doncaster in September too.
That’s not to say he needs it soft because he went well enough on better ground at Sandown and he would be a more than interesting runner in Ascot’s King George VI at the end of this month.
