HAYDOCK staged a good card on Saturday, even with the Derby only seven days away. One of the highlights was the Group 2 188Bet Sandy Lane Stakes over six furlongs and it was won impressively by Karl Burke’s 7/1 chance Quiet Reflection, who pulled nearly four lengths clear of Donjuan Triumphant with warm favourite Gifted Master only third.

Gifted Master had won his last five and tried to make all here. However, the ground had probably dried out more then he needed and he also stays beyond sprint distances.
