Oxx excited by new faces

John Oxx says he is excited by the potential of the five juveniles recently sent to him by Godolphin.

Oxx and Sheikh Mohammed have proved a winning combination over the years, with the likes of Witness Box, Heart Lake and Russian Snows all bringing glory to the duo.

Five more juveniles were recently given to the Currabeg handler and with all having impressive pedigree, he now has the task of developing them.

The trainer has been pleased by the potential he has seen so far and is confident they will all hold entries sooner rather than later.

He said: “It was very nice to train for Sheikh Mohammed for over 20 years, and to have five two-year-olds for him again.

“They have just come out of a pre-training yard. They are ready to move on with and are in good condition and ready to go.

“Hopefully in a couple of months’ time we might have something on the track. They haven’t done any fast work yet and are quite a bit away from the track.”
