The colt won his fifth start on Saturday
The most famous line from Charles Dickens’s 1837 novel, Oliver Twist, is: “Please, sir, I want some more.” That’s exactly the feeling of racing fans after a horse named after the famous British writer kept his unbeaten record at Kenilworth on Sunday.
One contributor to the Sporting Post website stated “He’s the best I’ve seen since Horse Chestnut”, and another queried whether the colt “is not our Frankel?” Which brings us along nicely to the race Mrs Rupert sponsors — the L’Ormarins King’s Plate — to be run on January 7 for which Charles Dickens is the new 3-1 favourite.
With several fancied horses biting the dust at the Summer Cup meeting last Saturday including Sparkling Water, Shoemaker and Desert Miracle, one suspects that punters might be ready to take the odds-on about Charles Dickens in the Guineas. The opposition includes Sean Tarry’s Princess Ozma, a daughter of Futura, who was only half a length behind Moraine in their recent clash at Turffontein.
