CHARYN and Silvestre de Souza are just too good in the G2 Bet365 Mile at Sandown Park.
The four-year-old son of Dark Angel made the perfect start to his season at Doncaster last month, cruising home to land the Listed Doncaster Mile, and he made it two from two in fine fashion today - passing the post 1¼L the better of Simon & Ed Crisford's Poker Face, with Lord North back in third.
Roger said "He was slow from the gates, so Silvestre had no option but to drop in, but the horse came home very strong, he's a fighter and he's a good horse.
"He was a good winner on the line and although it took him a while to get there and get on top, it's a tough track and the ground is holding and it's hard work. He's finished strong and we're very pleased."
Congratulations to Mr Nurlan Bizakov.
Late and fast! 🔵🟡
