can provide the Richard Hannon stable with another victory in the Weatherbys Super Sprint Stakes (GBB Race) (3.30pm) at Newbury on Saturday afternoon.
The Newmarket trainer’s father, Richard Hannon senior, specialised in taking the valuable five-furlong sprint – winning the feature at the Berkshire track seven times from Lyric Fantasy’s success in the second running of the race in 1991 to Monsieur Chevalier’s triumph in 2009. Since taking over the reigns at Herridge Racing Stables, Hannon junior has won it four times, including back-to-back runnings in the past two seasons with Happy Romance (2020) and Gubbass (2021).
And in a typically competitive contest it should pay to side with the Hannons’ Miami Girl to add to their roll of honour at Newbury.
Hannon has five runners in the 21-strong field but Miami Girl looks to be his best chance of victory.
The daughter of Cotai Glory won in good style on her racecourse debut at Newmarket in May and also scored at Windsor last time. Although she disappointed at York, she ran a decent race when fifth to Dramatised in the Group Two Queen Mary Stakes at Royal Ascot last month.
That looks solid form in regards to the Super Sprint and the victory at Windsor means she is going the right way. And although she was behind Super Sprint favourite – who finished third at the Royal meeting – she is open to improvement and can reverse that form to land victory.
The Richard Fahey-trained is another who can make the frame at least.
The aforementioned can land another course and distance victory in the Group Three bet365 Hackwood Stakes (2.56pm).
As well as winning the Super Sprint in 2021, the Dandy Man filly also landed this race 12 months ago beating Diligent Harry by a neck.
