Doncaster Eyecatcher Lyneham one for the shortlist

There was plenty to like about the debut of Ralph Beckett’s Lyneham, who lost out only narrowly in what looked an above average one-mile maiden at Doncaster

By sire-of-the-moment Wootton Bassett, Lyneham cost 425,000 guineas as her dam is a sister to Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe winner Found.

A joint venture between Amo Racing and Al Shaqab, he looks a certain future winner and promises to excel over middle distances next season.
