Bengal Tiger far too good for the rest in Prospect Stakes Aidan O’Brien’s Bengal Tiger looked a class apart as he left the field in his wake to land the William Hill Remembering Sue Wright Prospect Stakes at Doncaster. Ryan Moore was happy to settle the 10-11 favourite on the outside as the keen-going Crystal Queen pulled them along in front in the six-furlongs Listed affair. Moore shook his mount up with a quarter of a mile to race and as soon as he asked for an effort with a furlong to go Bengal Tiger put it to bed, streaking clear to score by three and a half lengths from Hi Corbett Court. O’Brien thinks the winner will easily stay further and views him as a Classic contender. “What he did the last day at Naas shouldn’t usually happen, no matter how bad the race was the time was very good,” said O’Brien. “We were going to go to the Horris Hill at Newbury, but that got abandoned. We wanted to go there because we thought he’d love going seven furlongs, but we switched back here. “The last half a furlong he started to take off, he’s going to get seven easily and I’d say he’s a Classic horse. “It’s unusual for one by No Nay Never to go through heavy ground like that, but he’s out of a good Galileo mare (On Ice), so we shouldn’t be surprised. “It wasn’t his speed that won him it today, it was staying, the last furlong he was getting going.”
