SINCE Remarquee won the Group 3 Fred Darling Stakes in April, and until Grey’s Monument (Territories) was successful in the Listed Hyde Stakes at Kempton Park this week, trainer Ralph Beckett has won 21 stakes races, with Westover giving him a Group 1 victory in the Grand Prix de Paris.
His latest win was with the three-year-old colt Grey’s Monument, a 65,000gns yearling buy along with bloodstock agent Alex Elliott. A smart juvenile when runner-up in the Group 3 Horris Hill Stakes, the bay was beaten a nose in the Listed Heron Stakes this season, and a blacktype win was well deserved. Grey’s Monument has run 11 times, and only twice been out of the first four. He could be a horse to keep on the right side of next season.
