Folk Opera aiming to be a factor in Lancashire Oaks!
Folk Opera, a rising Godolphin filly, is seen by his trainer Saeed bin Suroor as a horse to reckon with in the bet365 Lancashire Oaks on Saturday at Haydock Park Race Track.
Folk Opera has so far been unbeaten this season. She last won in a Listed race at Haydock Park Race Track in May.
Bin Suroor's faith in Folk Opera stems from the fact that she had had a relatively easy time staying 1 ½ miles in her last contest. Her trainer believes that the mettle she showed in her last race makes her good enough to make her presence felt in the Lancashire Oaks at Haydock Park Race Track.
"She improved from her first run last time and she won her last race well, she's in good form," said Bin Suroor.
"She's a very genuine filly, she always tries very hard. This is another step up for her but she has the class to run a very good race.
"She handled the trip no problem last time, she seemed to improve for it even.", concluded bin Suroor.
