Frankel among stellar entry for Lockinge Stakes
By Paul Eacott 3:46PM 3 APR 2012
SUPERSTAR colt Frankel could face a stellar line-up when he makes his eagerly anticipated return to action at Newbury next month.
The five-time Group 1 winner is set to line-up in the JLT Lockinge Stakes on May 18 where he will be trying to stretch his unbeaten record to ten.
However the likely presence of last season's runaway 2,000 Guineas winner has not scared off potential rivals with a whole host of big names featuring among the 20 entries.
Excelebration, who finished second behind Frankel on his final start of last season in the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes could have a first start for Aidan O'Brien in the race. So You Think is another eyecatching name among the O'Brien-trained entries.
Richard Hannon, who won the race last season with Canford Cliffs, has entered Dubawi Gold, second to Frankel in last season's Guineas, and Strong Suit.
Worthadd, second in the Lockinge last year when trained in Italy by Vittorio Caruso, hasbeen given an entry in the Group 1 race over a mile by new trainer Sir Mark Prescott.
As well as Frankel, owner Khalid Abdullah could also be represented by brilliant Dubai Duty Free winner Cityscape, although he has more likely options overseas.
