NAGANO GOLD DRUGOPLASIRAN U HARDWICKE STAKES Gr-2 2400m

Naš Nagano Gold (25-1) je pre trke bio u senci velikih favorita Defoe (11-4f), Masar (3-1), Southern France (9-2) i Mirage Dancer (6-1). Na samom startu prošlogodišnji Epsom Derby pobednik Masar je uleteo ispred našeg glra i umalo ga nije izbacio iz trke. Kvalitet našeg grla i odlično jahanje francuskog šampiona Cristoph Soumillon-a dali su rezultat, drugo mesto u prestižnoj trci na zatvaranju Royal Ascot sastanka 2019 uz ocenu 120.

• Cristophe Soumillon:
  "Nažalost, Masar nam je doneo mnogo problema na startu. Srećom, svi smo ostali u sedlu. Koštao me je pobede u trci u svakom slučaju"
  "Unfortunately Masar gave us a hard time at the start, hopefully everyone is still on their horse. He cost me the race anyway."
  
• Tomáš Janda (racing manager):
  "Radosni smo, ali bilo je vrlo blizu, Kristof nam je rekao da je dosta izgubio na startu. Masar mu je preprečio put i tu smo podosta izgubili, kao i u pravcu. Kristof misli da je mogao dobiti trku. Zadovoljni smo, mada bilo je tako neizvesno i onda mislite i da ste mogli dobiti.
  Nagano Gold je dobio listed trku u Francuskoj veoma lako prošle godine i trčao je gr-2 trku takođe, mada su sve to bile trke sporog tempa. U toj gGr-2 trci plasirao se na četvrto mesto, tek tri dužine iza pobednika. Tako smo tokom zime odlučili da dođemo ovde. Svake sedmice više grla nam trči u Francuskoj, ali za ovo grlo više odgovaraju trke u Britaniji ili možda Nemačkoj, jer mu dogovara brži tempo.
  Upisan je u Gr-1 trku u Nemačkoj u avgustu, tako da verovatno King George neće biti opcija, mada nikad se ne zna. U svakom slučaju, glavni cilj nam je Longchamp u oktobru i "Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe. Ne želimo previše startova za njega, tako da planiramo da trči samo jednom do Arc-a"
  "We are happy, but it was quite close and Christophe said he lost quite a lot at the start. Masar crossed him and he lost a lot there, and also in the straight, so he feels he could even have won. We are happy, but if you are so close you always think what could be.
  He won a Listed race in France last year very easily and ran in Group 2 races, but it was always very, very slow. He was placed fourth, but only beaten three lengths, and over the winter we decided to come here. We run a lot of our horses in France every week, but for this horse England – or maybe Germany – is better because he needs a fast pace.
  We've entered him for a Group 1 in Germany in August, so probably not the King George but of course we could change it, but the long-term plan for this season is the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe in October. We don't want many races for him so I think we will run just once more before the Arc and we hope it's not too slow."
