Gun sprinter Bivouac heads nominations for the Group Two The Shorts (1100m) and last season’s Golden Rose and Newmarket Handicap winner is primed for a big return.
“He’s done everything right and has come to hand beautifully. He’s strong and fit and looks ready to run a really good race.” Cummings said.
Nominations for this year’s edition also include Classique Legend, Ball Of Muscle, Jungle Edge, Eduardo and exciting New Zealand galloper Catalyst.
“He’s going to know he’s in a race as the nominations look deep but we have to be confident in our horse,” Cummings said.
“His training and his trials have been nothing short of superb and he should be ready to run well first-up, and that’s what we are looking to do.”
Godophin has yet to announce who will represent their slot in the $15 million Everest but if Bivouac performs to expectations, that decision may become increasingly easier to make.
