Yeats Bids For a Third Vintage Crop Steaks
The Best Stayer of All-Time?
Yeats will bid for a hat-trick of Vintage Crop Stakes wins on Sunday. The now eight year-old has won this the last two years and looks for the third in a row at Navan. Aiden O’Brien must have a soft spot in his heart for Yeats.
Yeats will be partnered by Seamie Heffernan who is quoted as saying
“It would be a great win for a third year in a row but I suppose the easiest thing to do is ride the best horse in the race, so I’m looking forward to it.”
It will be a stiff test for Yeats, but if he has retained his ability he will win.
Yeats is the best stayer I have ever seen. It was brilliant to see him win a third Gold Cup and all credit to connections for keeping him in training. After all they are a breeding operation, so they are very sporting!
Lets hope Yeats can win and then make it to Royal Ascot in June.
