Blue Point breaks track record

BLUE Point produced an impressive perfomance to break the six-furlong track record at Ascot in the Group 3 Merriebelle Stable Pavilion Stakes on Wednesday. Placed in both the Middle Park and the Dewhurst Stakes, Blue Point was expected to go well and started at 13/8 favourite.
With Clive Cox’s horses going well, he faced a live threat in Harry Angel but William Buick brought him from off the pace to account for that rival by a length and a half.
