Fairytale success for Bettys Hope in Weatherbys Super Sprint

Bettys Hope made it a day to remember for the Millman family when storming to victory in the £250,000 Weatherbys Super Sprint at Newbury on Saturday.

Yet to finish out of the first two in six starts she was waited with towards the rear early on, before finishing strongest of all and continuing her progression under a perfectly judged ride by Silvestre De Sousa.

The daughter of Anjaal was bred by David Hodge of Llety Farms and sold at last year’s Ascot Yearling Sale to Matt Houldsworth for £3,000.
