Beckett star in top shape ahead of Keeneland

Trainer Ralph Beckett claims New Mandate is in top form ahead of his outing next month at Keeneland.

Having won the Group Two Royal Lodge Stakes and the Listed Flying Scotsman Stakes, New Mandate is now looking to make it four wins on the bounce Keeneland in November.

Beckett feels the two-year-old is in great shape and is also happy to see jockey Frankie Dettori on board for the next outing in Kentucky.

“I’m very happy with him. If anything he’s in as good a shape as he was going to Newmarket and we’re looking forward to it,” told Nick Luck’s Daily Podcast.

“We’re seeing at home he’s more relaxed in his work. He’s definitely going the right way the more experience he gets under his belt.

“Frankie Dettori rides. He understands the horse very well now. It’s a good fit.”
