Elm Park lands Royal Lodge

Elm Park relished every yard of the mile trip to claim the Juddmonte Royal Lodge Stakes at Newmarket.

Winner of two starts since finishing third in his maiden, the Andrew Balding-trained colt looked to be one of the first of the market principals to be feeling the pinch, as Andrea Atzeni was at work quite a way from home.

Up front Salateen had taken them along, with 5-4 favourite Nafaqa in close attendance.

The latter finally mastered the Jamie Spencer-ridden leader as they began to meet the rising ground, but just as it looked like he would go on to take the Group Two prize, the 11-4 winner finished with a real rattle on the far side, scoring by a length.

Atzeni said: "I always thought I was going to get there. The ground is quick enough for him, he probably wants better ground which is why he came off the bridle quite early I think.

"He stumbled coming out of the stalls, but he travelled nicely. He started racing quite a long way out, but he came home really well.

"He's a nice horse. This was the first time I had sat on him but I know Andrew liked him a lot."
