KAVANAGH will be racing at Ascot on Saturday afternoon.  Mary Slack’s gelding has been accepted  for the Gr 3 John Guest  Bengough Stakes over 1200m  and Pat Cosgrave has the ride.

Kavanagh has been mildly disappointing in two sprints at Newmarket and Haydock respectively after a rest, but he’s  a horse with plenty of ability and he’s doing well.

“We’re hoping for an improved run, he’s fit and well,” said assistant trainer Steven Jell.
