    Zoffany and Wootton Bassett Among 17 for Park Stakes
    25/08/11

    Ladbrokes St Leger Day on Saturday, September 10, also features the prestigious £100,000 Group Two Park Stakes (3.40pm) over seven furlongs, which is contested under Group One conditions.

    Among the 17 going forward at the latest scratchings stage are a pair of Group One winners, Zoffany and Wootton Bassett, who both scored at the highest level as juveniles last year.

    Zoffany, trained by Aidan O’Brien, disappointed on soft ground at Deauville last time behind Moonlight Cloud in the Group One Prix Maurice de Gheest but got to within three quarters of a length of the mighty Frankel when runner-up in the Group One St James’s Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot in June.

    Wootton Bassett, successful in the Prix Jean-Luc Lagardere at Longchamp last term, was fifth in the Prix Maurice de Gheest over six and a half furlongs on August 7.

    Deacon Blues
    James Fanshawe could saddle the progressive Deacon Blues who landed the Wokingham Handicap at Royal Ascot in June and has since flourished n Pattern company, most recently when storming to an easy success over six furlongs in a Curragh Group Three on August 7.

    Chachamaidee, trained by Sir Henry Cecil, took the Group Three Oak Tree Stakes at Glorious Goodwood last time, while the Saeed bin Suroor-trained Delegator won the Group Two Duke of York Stakes at York in May. Suroor could also saddle Godolphin’s Rainfall, winner of the Group Three Jersey Stakes at Royal Ascot in 2010 and twice placed at Group One level that year.

    Balthazaar’s Gift landed the spoils for trainer Clive Cox (who could also saddle Beacon Lodge) in 2010, while Duff, a close fourth that day, was successful in 2009 for trainer Edward Lynam.

    Other potential runners include Premio Loco, trained by Chris Wall, who was runner-up in 2010, and the Charles O’Brien-trained Bewitched, a multiple Group Three winner.

    Saturday’s fantastic card also features the £75,000 Group Two One Call Insurance Champagne Stakes (2pm) for two-year-olds over seven furlongs.

    The four-day Ladbrokes St Leger Festival runs from Wednesday, September 7, through to Saturday, September 10, inclusive.
