Wells Farhh Go to Return in 2021

MGSW Wells Farhh Go (Ire) (Farhh {GB}), who won the G3 Acombe S. at two and the G3 Bahrain Trophy S. at three, will remain on the bench until 2021, trainer Tim Easterby revealed on Sunday. The 5-year-old entire was unplaced in the 2019 Ebor H. at York last August and was seventh in the G3 Cumberland Lodge S. at Ascot on Oct. 5. The bay has been on an injury-induced break since.

“He is still in training, but he’s having a season off,” said the trainer. “He’ll be running next year on the Flat. He had a little problem this spring from York last year, so he’s had to have this year off. All being well, he’ll be fine.”

Ground Key for Art Power in Nunthorpe

King Power Racing’s Art Power (Ire) (Dark Angel {Ire}), who won the G3 Lacken S. at Naas on July 4, is targeting the Aug. 21 G1 Nunthorpe S., where he would face top older sprinter Battaash (Ire) (Dark Angel {Ire}). His trainer Tim Easterby is hoping for rain, as the grey is not ending his season in the York sprinting showcase. The 3-year-old colt is riding a four-race winning streak, with a novice score at York last October kicking things off at second asking. Art Power followed up with another novice win, this time at Newcastle on June 1, and won the Palace Of Holyroodhouse H. at Royal Ascot on June 19 prior to his Lacken score.

“I’d like it to rain,” said Easterby. “We’re fine over five furlongs, but I just wouldn’t want to run him on very quick ground because it’s not all about the Nunthorpe. He goes on fast ground, but the pace you need for that race on fast ground might be the thing. If it rains it is definitely the right way to go. The ground is key to us having a good chance, I think.”
