Beat The Bank, successful in four of his five career starts and an easy three-length scorer on both of his last two outings, will attempt to continue his climb up the ranks of Europe’s top milers when he runs in the Group 2 Shadwell Joel Stakes at Newmarket’s Rowley Mile Racecourse on Friday (29th September).

The South African import, Whisky Baron, owned by former England cricketer Craig Kieswetter, is set to make his European debut in the Group 2 Shadwell Joel Stakes at Newmarket’s Rowley Mile Racecourse on Friday 29th September.

Sun Met winner Whisky Baron (AUS) is in the quarantine station at Kenilworth racecourse as a preliminary to a major international campaign under Brett Crawford.

Australian bred gelding Whisky Baron secured his first Grade One victory in the Sun Met at Kenilworth on Saturday to provide his Arrowfield Stud-based sire Manhattan Rain with his first G1 winner.

It all points to Legal Eagle for the R5m, Grade 1 Sun Met (2000m) at Kenilworth on Saturday. The form book, the handicappers and the bookmakers say the 2-1 favourite is the best horse in the race, he won the Queen’s Plate convincingly and his stable is on fire.
