BENGALI Boys, who cost just €11,000 in Goffs as a yearling, looks set for a step up to stakes or pattern class following his runaway victory in the ultra-valuable Weatherbys Super Sprint Stakes over six furlongs at Newbury.

The Richard Fahey-trained grey, a son of Rathasker Stud stallion Clodovil, scooped the £122,925 first prize with a six-length defeat of Declarationoflove and had the 9/4 favourite Maggies Angel another neck back in third.

The winner paid 12/1, he was partnered by Barry McHugh, and his record now stands at two wins and two seconds from four starts.

Magical Memory made his class tell to run out a decisive winner of the Group 3 bet365 Hackwood Stakes.

The five-year-old was victorious in the Stewards' Cup two years ago and is not far off the top sprinters at his best, although he had run no sort of race at Royal Ascot this year when well down the field in the Diamond Jubilee Stakes.

Given a confidence-booster by trainer Charlie Hills in a conditions event at Haydock recently, he looked rejuvenated in the hands of the returning Frankie Dettori, travelling strongly despite the rain-softened ground, which historically has not always being to his liking.

Never far off the pace set by Gifted Master, the 3/1 favourite took charge over a furlong out and was a length and a quarter too good for Perfect Angel, with Lady Macapa in third.

Dettori had sat out the first part of the week to give his injured shoulder more time to heal, and said: "I miss the buzz of winning and this is a lovely old boy.

"Usually he just does enough, but today he put daylight between himself and the rest. He's better than these at this level and s ix furlongs is tailor-made for him."

Hills said: "He's really tough and Frankie gave him a great ride, it's great to have him back on board.

"I'm delighted for everyone involved. It's amazing, we had a terrible run at Ascot and it's amazing what it does to get a horse's head back in front. Ever since Haydock he's shown us the right signs and he's back on an upward curve."

Looking to future plans, Hills added: "We'll probably look at France, last year we thought we might drop him back to five and now if anything we're thinking he could do further."

What About Carlo beat a depleted field to register the first listed success of his career in the bet365 Stakes.

Notching a third success over the course and distance, Eve Johnson Houghton's stalwart was eventually sent off the 5/2 joint-favourite in a race better known as the Steventon Stakes.

That was because overnight rain saw the withdrawals of Spark Plug, Mount Logan and stablemate Toulson.

Having taken up the running some two furlongs out from restorer, only Arthenus was left as a threat but his challenge petered out. Charles Bishop kept the six-year-old winner up to his work to score by two and three-quarter lengths.

Johnson Houghton said: "On ratings he shouldn't have won, but he loves it at Newbury. He's such a star, he loves the game."

Bishop said: "We knew when we got the rain last night we were in with a big chance. He's a yard favourite and a dream to ride. He loves it here and there were a few non runners as well. I had it under control from a long way out."
