Son of Berkshire wins for Ascot-bound Cromwell

It's Royal Ascot for Gavin Cromwell on Tuesday with My Mate Mozzie due to line up in the Copper Horse Handicap and he goes there on the back of a winner after Tonaghneave Well (10/3, from 9/2) took the  Kilbeggan (Pro/Am) Flat Race under Declan Lavery.

Fourth in his first two outings last month, the son of Berkshire was never far from the pace and led two furlongs out to beat easy-to-back favourite Eoin's Charm by nine lengths.

Cromwell said of Paul Kelly's four-year-old: “Deccie gave him a lovely ride. They didn’t go too quick and he was in a lovely position all the way. He quickened away and stayed going to the line. 

“He had a bit of experience and loves that nice summer ground. He’s improved with each run and hopefully he keeps improving.”
