Poet Master
Group 2 winner at the Curragh (7f, good) in July 2024 and runner-up in two 7f Group races last autumn (very soft/good); not at his best on his two runs this season but each-way claims if back on song today.

From the connections
“Poet Master is still immature and can be difficult to switch off, but they went a good gallop in front and it suited perfectly. I could get him switched off. I got to the front sooner than I wanted. but he was able to gallop to the line. The ground was perfect for him. I think there is more to come, he is maturing all the time and I think he will keep improving - Sam James, jockey.”
“Poet Master has got a lot of potential and feels if he'll get a mile no problem. I think there's a Listed race at Haydock he could go for next - Sam James, rider.”
“Poet Master has got his own ideas about the job, he's still learning, he's still green and he probably wasn't in love with that ground. He'll probably be a very decent horse when he puts everything together. It will have to be black type now but the better the race, the better he'll be. They went a good gallop there and he was always in his comfort zone - Sam James, jockey.”
