MUNSIF makes it 2/2 with a facile victory at Pontefract, and MY CLOUD swoops past the field to win on seasonal reappearance at Ascot.
MUNSIF was a comfortable winner on debut at Nottingham earlier this month, and he posted another facile victory at Pontefract this afternoon. The three-year-old Sea The Stars colt made all under Jim Crowley, quickening away smartly when asked, to claim the 1m2f Novice contest by a 4L margin.
Congratulations to Sheikha Hissa and the Shadwell team - he looks a smart prospect and we look forward to seeing him progress this season.

MY CLOUD made a stylish seasonal reappearance at Ascot, swooping from the clouds in the closing stages to win under Apprentice Kaiya Fraser. The four-year-old Blue Point colt was last seen winning over 1m at Newcastle in October, following two runner up efforts, and we were delighted to see a strong start to his 2025 campaign this afternoon.
Congratulations to KHK Racing!
Lovely ride, Kaiya Fraser!
