Flora Of Bermuda Joins Wathnan Racing

The latest addition to a burgeoning Royal Ascot team for Wathnan Racing is the Andrew Balding-trained Flora Of Bermuda. The four-year-old daughter of Dark Angel, winner of last season's G3 Summer Stakes, has been purchased privately from Bermuda Racing Limited and holds entries for both Group 1 sprints at the royal meeting as well as the July Cup.

“We were impressed with her comeback run in the Duke Of York, and it looks as if she can hold her own against the very best,” said Richard Brown, advisor to Wathnan Racing.

“Andrew and his team have done a fine job with her, campaigning her with great consistency in the highest class. With luck, one of these big ones will fall her way. She certainly won't fail for lack of courage.”
