Spud to prove queen of Fakenham once again

Queen Spud boasts a perfect record of three wins from three starts at Fakenham, and she can stretch that unbeaten sequence to four by landing the 3m Weatherbys Stallion Book Mares' Handicap Chase (1.35).

Although set to race off a career-high mark of 112, there are strong reasons for believing Henry Daly’s mare will prove too strong for three rivals at her favourite venue.

She lines up in terrific shape, having stayed on strongly in refitted cheekpieces to slam Charlie Mon by nine lengths over 2m5f of the track last month.
