Sunday's G1 Keeneland Phoenix S. hero Advertise (GB) (Showcasing {GB}) is now on a short break, and trainer Martyn Meade hopes his first Group 1 winner out of the historic Manton yard will lead to bigger and better things to come. Meade is eyeing the G1 Dewhurst S. at Newmarket on Oct. 13, as the next goal for the Phoenix Thoroughbred-owned juvenile.
“He's come out of the race very well, there's not a bother on him,” said Meade. “He's going to have a bit of a break now and then we'll get him ready for the Dewhurst, that's the plan. To get a Group 1, so soon after moving yards, is a bit of a relief. We've won a Group 2 and a Group 3 as well, so it couldn't have gone any better.”
Advertise was bought by Phoenix Thoroughbreds Limited before finishing second in the G2 Coventry S. at Royal Ascot and has proved a shrewd investment, winning the G2 July S. as well as the Phoenix since.
