2006 Horse News Update Wednesday, 3rd May We will find out on Saturday if SIR PERCY is of Classic class. A prep race in the Greenham had been considered, but it was decided that it wouldn't have proved anything, hence him going straight to Newmarket. The ground at "headquarters" will be on the firm side, so we can expect a very fast race, which a well actioned horse like SIR PERCY should handle. |

SIR PERCY The ground at Newmarket will be on the firm side, so we can expect a very fast race, which a wellactioned horse like SIR PERCY should handle. Longer term, probably 1m2f to 1m4f will be him optimum distance, but we think he's rather good at the mile as well! Races that will be considered in 2006: | ||
