Wordsworth Tests Cup Credentials

Princess Zoe | Scoop-Dyga

   One of Ballydoyle's most idle performers, the talented Wordsworth (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) gets to go over two miles for the first time on Wednesday as he warms up for the Royal meeting in Ascot's G3 Longines Sagaro S. While the G1 Grand Prix de Paris runner-up and G1 Irish Derby third hardly quickens the pulse with his dour galloping style, the full-brother to Kew Gardens (Ire) could be a G1 Gold Cup horse through-and-through and we will know more after his encounter with the 2020 G1 Prix du Cadran heroine and 2021 Gold Cup runner-up Princess Zoe (Ger) (Jukebox Jury {Ire}) here. The card also features the G3 Merriebelle Stables Commonwealth Cup Trial, or Pavilion S. as it is registered, where the G2 Railway S. winner and GII Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint runner-up Go Bears Go (Ire) (Kodi Bear {Ire}) pits his wits against the G2 Mill Reef S. one-two Wings of War (Ire) (Dark Angel {Ire}) and Hierarchy (Ire) (Mehmas {Ire}) and a dark one in Shadwell's TDN Rising Star Ehraz (GB) (Showcasing {GB}).
