Good start to the week

Mon 09 May 2011

MUHANDIS started the week off well for us when landing the maiden at Brighton this afternoon.

Sheikh Hamdan Al-Maktoum's colt, who comes from the same family as Elnadim and Mehthaaf, started odds-on, but Richard Hills had to get serious with the favourite in the last furlong to beat off the persistent challenge of Emilio Largo.

Hills said:"That was hard work, but we got the job done. Muhandis did not enjoy the soft ground at Musselburgh last time, but we were beaten by the subsequent Dee Stakes winner (Glen's Diamond) and he clearly appreciated both this faster surface and the drop in class."
