Goodwood : Hannon "Team Handed" In Veuve Clicquot Vintage Stakes Wednesday


Master juvenile trainer Richard Hannon will saddle four of the seven runners in the Veuve Clicquot Vintage Stakes at Glorious Goodwood on Wednesday.

Stable jockey Richard Hughes will take the ride on Chandlery, who is joined by stablemates Rockinante, Minal and Red Seventy.

The John Quinn-trained Red Duke narrowly beat Chandlery in the Superlative Stakes at Newmarket's July meeting and reopposes.


Another challenger from the north is Mark Johnston's Elkhart, a winner at Beverley on his latest appearance.

The seven-runner field is completed by Clive Cox's Lethal Force, who, although still a maiden, was a highly respectable fourth in the Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot last time.
