Wise Approach makes his mark in Newbury feature
Charlie Appleby's Mehmas colt – who cost a million guineas as a yearling – is a half-sibling to the Group-placed Golden Mind and multiple Group One winner Perfect Power, and was last seen finishing second to Charles Darwin in the Norfolk Stakes at Royal Ascot. That was a Group Two event and he therefore stepped down in grade to Listed level but back up in trip to six furlongs at Newbury, starting as the 11-10 favourite and registering an easy four-length victory under William Buick. 'It was a nice performance, he ran a good race at Ascot when he was on a different side of the track to the winner,' the rider told Sky Sports Racing. 'He was more comfortable back at six. I like what he did there, it was a nice smooth performance and I think he's a horse who will get better. 'He looked a good deal better than the opposition there and he certainly deserves to have a look at those targets (the Gimcrack and the Middle Park). 'I think he will develop, he's a scopey horse and he was very natural from early on, but I do think he'll keep getting better.'
