Rizeena considered for QEII
Last Updated: 23/09/14 11:50am
Rizeena will run in the Queen Elizabeth II Stakes on Qipco Champions Day at Ascot if she goes to the well once more this autumn.
Trainer Clive Brittain had decided the Coronation Stakes winner had done enough for this campaign and was looking forward to training her as a four-year-old.
However, Kingman's absence from the QEIII, coupled with Rizeena's unbeaten record at Ascot, has given connections something to think about.
"Going for the QEII hasn't been discussed yet, but I'm sure it will be," said Brittain.
"She's in it, but the plan was that she wasn't going to run again this year. However, she's in fantastic form.
"She's also in the Sun Chariot (Newmarket, October 4), but she won't run in that and if she does run again it will be at Ascot.
"For whatever reason, she seems to be a 3lb better filly at Ascot than anywhere.
"She is three from three there so that would be taken into account."
