Little Big Bear is BACK! The champion juvenile roars back to form in the Sandy Lane

Frankie Dettori feels that Little Big Bear (Evens Favourite) will be a “big favourite” for next month’s Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot, after he impressed on his return to sprinting with a facile success in the Group Two Betfred Nifty Fifty Sandy Lane Stakes at Haydock Park on Saturday afternoon. The three year old was crowned as Europe’s champion juvenile last term, winning four of his five starts as a two year old including the Group One Phoenix Stakes at the Curragh last August. The step up to a mile in the QIPCO 2000 Guineas didn’t work out for the son of No Nay Never at Newmarket earlier this month but he was back to his very best here, finding plenty for Dettori’s encouragement at the two-furlong pole and quickly strolling clear from the Richard Hannon-trained Shouldvebeenaring to win by a length and a quarter. Remarkably, Little Big Bear’s success today was a first at Haydock Park for trainer Aidan O’Brien. #horse #horses #horseracing #sport This is the official YouTube channel of Racing TV.
