Cartesian can continue good form for Ralph

RALPH Beckett will never forget his week at Goodwood and his good run can continue with Miss Cartesian in the Daily Bet Boosts At BetVictor Fillies’ Handicap at Newbury.
Beckett famously landed the Sussex Stakes with 150-1 pacemaker Qirat and two of his fillies dead-heated in the Oak Tree Stakes.
Now it is the turn of his Miss Cartesian, who is building up a nice body of work.
Having won on her only outing at two last year, she went to Yarmouth for her seasonal debut when she narrowly failed to concede a penalty to Showering who has since franked that piece of form and won again.
More recently she was able to give away weight to get back to winning ways at Newmarket and while that might not have been a strong race for the track, it is always the sign of an above average horse when they are able to do that.
