Talking Horses: Stradivarius on course for Gold Cup after York victory


“Faster and further, that’s what we want,” Elsworth said, and Desert Skyline can be backed at 16-1 to give the trainer his first success in the Royal meeting’s feature event. Her future entries include the Commonwealth Cup and July Cup over six furlongs, but this victory confirmed for Mark Johnston, her trainer, that Threading belongs at a mile and she could now head for the Irish 1,000 Guineas on Sunday week. This race fell apart a bit at the start but the second horse [Dance Diva] is highly-rated and we’ve run away from it. “I don’t believe in judging horses by their worst runs, and when you have a defeat, you get back out and run again. She’ll be sticking at a mile and the Irish Guineas is the first one we’ve got to think about.”
