5 y gr h Frankel – Scuffle (Bob, Neil)
High class though rather fragile performer, un raced at 2, he made his debut at Newbury in May 2019, winning a 1m 2f maiden by 2l from High Commissioner, then followed up at Newmarket in June, taking a 1m 2f novice stakes from Away He Goes. He then took a 1m 4f handicap at Newbury in July by 4 ½ l from Natty Night ( received 15 lb), then stepped up in class won a group 2 over 1m 4f at Doncaster in August, beating Constantinople 1 ¾ l before finishing the season unbeaten by winning the 1m 6f group 1 St leger at Doncaster by 2 ¼ l from Sir Ron Priestley. Last season after a set back he reappeared at Doncaster in September in a 1m 2f conditions stakes at Doncaster, beating Mythical Magic 7l, and then disappointed on soft ground at York in October finishing last of 4 in a 1m 4f group 3 beaten 9 ¾ l by Euchen Glen.
He has group 2 entry at 1m 4f, and 1n 6f and a group 1 entry in the 1m 4f Coronation Cup. He should certainly win some decent races this season if back to his best.
