Options Open for 'Fox'

Urban Fox | Racing Post

Urban Fox (GB) (Foxwedge {Aus}), surprise winner of the G1 Pretty Polly S. at The Curragh on Sunday, is pointing toward the GI Beverly D. S. at Arlington Park on Aug. 11 or the G1 Qatar Nassau S. at Goodwood on Aug. 2 according to trainer William Haggas. The daughter of reverse shuttler Foxwedge was trying 10 furlongs for the first time in the Pretty Polly where she defeated G1 Epsom Oaks heroine Forever Together (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}).

“She won well on Sunday,” said Haggas. “We rode her a bit differently, but she stayed well and loved the ground. It never really looked in doubt, she took it up 2 1/2 furlongs from home and just kept on going. Obviously I am chuffed as it is her first stakes win. We will either go for the Nassau at Goodwood or the Beverly D at Arlington. She is in both and will go for one of the two. Then we will see what we do after that.”
