Coronation Target For Queen

Arabian Queen and David Elsworth | Racing Post

Jeff Smith's Arabian Queen (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}) is on track for the G1 Coronation Cup at Epsom June 4 after missing this week's G2 Middleton S. due to a sinus problem. Trainer David Elsworth said, “We were hoping to run Arabian Queen in the Middleton, but unfortunately her old sinus problem reared its head again so we had to put her on some medicine, which prevented us from running her. We are now looking forward to the Coronation Cup.”

Elsworth said of the task facing last year's G1 Juddmonte International scorer, “Postponed will turn up as well, I imagine, and he will be a danger, but she [Arabian Queen] won there last year over a trip just over a mile and she showed she likes going left-handed by winning there and at York.”
