Safe Voyage one of the big hopes as Yorkshire trainers target Breeders’ Cup
Quinn, Ryan and Tinkler have leading chances at Keeneland.
Three Yorkshire trainers have their eyes on a first Breeders’ Cup success at Keeeneland this weekend. John Quinn, Kevin Ryan and Nigel Tinkler fly the flag for the white rose county in the United States’ biggest racing Festival. Quinn unleashes his fine stable stalwart Safe Voyage in the FanDuel Breeders’ Cup Mile on Saturday. The seven-year-old is a dual Group Two winner this season and was a close third in the Prix de la Foret on his latest start.The Settrington trainer revealed he has had this race mind for some time. He said: “Early in the spring, we thought the Breeders’ Cup could suit Safe Voyage. He’s got some very good form going left-handed. “His best form before this season was over seven furlongs, but he then won and dug deep when he won over a mile at Leopardstown, so the mile at Keeneland will hold no fears for him.” “He finished third in the Qatar Prix de la Foret at ParisLongchamp last time and has been in good form since that race at the start of October. He’s come out of that race well.”
