Fallon Pounces Late
A late pounce by Kieren Fallon in Newbury's Dubai Duty Free Arc Trial saw Green Destiny confirmed for a Group One assignment.
Sent off the 2-1 favourite after a good win at York last time, William Haggas' charge was some way adrift of Roger Charlton's pair Al Kazeem and Sea Of Heartbreak but motored down the wide outside to score by half a length from the former.
"He'll probably have a dart at the Champion Stakes now," said Haggas.
"My view was that if he could carry a penalty in this race against good horses, he'd be doing well. This is a good horse."
