Beeswing Fortunes Rise: Global Interest Peaks at Kelso
The Irish mare trained by James Kenny in County Wexford has continued to turn heads after a busy winter campaign. She travels frequently to the UK and carries consistent form. Filmogaz.com reports on her latest performances and prospects.
Recent form and UK visits
She won at Doncaster last March. She also returned to Town Moor and finished fourth in December. The pattern shows regular trips across the Irish Sea.
Punchestown and a narrow defeat
Her most recent run came in a Grade Three at Punchestown. She was beaten by less than a length in that contest. Jamie Snowden’s Hollygrove Cha Cha faded early in the straight.
Margin and riders
On another occasion the mare started at 11-4 and prevailed by five-and-a-half lengths. Jordan Gainford rode the winner on that day. Sunset Marquesa finished second with Brendan Powell aboard.
Jockey reaction and future plans
Jordan Gainford praised trainer James Kenny for picking suitable races. He highlighted the benefit of small field sizes for the mare. Gainford said his priority was ensuring she stayed the three miles.
He noted she had been tried over fences at Tramore without success. Hurdling remains a likely option as she has gained value. Gainford believes she needs three miles and a little juice in the ground.
Outlook
Kenny is expected to map out a plan for her next targets. The mare’s profile now attracts wider attention. Even Beeswing followers have taken note, and fortunes rise conversations are increasing.
Global interest has peaked in some quarters, notably at Kelso. Connections will weigh options between chasing and hurdling. Filmogaz.com will monitor developments and report further.
