Excellently Poised for Ferguson Royal runner Bryan Smart is hoping to provide Sir Alex Ferguson with a Royal Ascot runner in Excellently Poised. The Sepoy colt made a winning debut at Musselburgh recently when beating Requinto Dawn, who had won a division of the Brocklesby at Doncaster. Smart would like to get another run into him before travelling south but where that will be has yet to be decided for the youngster, who is part-owned by the former Manchester United manager. "Obviously we're thinking of Ascot at this stage," said Smart. "I trained his dam (Excelette) and she was very good. "I'll just have a look and see what is about for him. "At the moment I'm very happy with him and he seems like a nice horse."
