Charlie Appleby has faith in Dewhurst winner Pinatubo

Charlie Appleby is confident if his unbeaten Dewhurst hero will bid to endure up to contrasts with all the Frankel, Pinatubo will find a mile a year ago.
Shamardals son made it six wins out as many starts using a second successive victory at Group One level adding to offer that the Appleby using a Dewhurst success.
Appleby understands he has to shine next term to coincide with the exploits of this Sir Henry celebrity Although Pinatubo has been given a higher juvenile score than Frankel following his triumph in the Curragh last month.
Appleby stated:Pinatubo isnt a flashy horse such as Frankel was, we all know what an amazing horse he had been and he had the stature of being trained by Sir Henry Cecil.
He is a very different horse as Frankel was keen to get on with things and that made him have thatwow factor.
Pinatubo is a horse that just goes out there and does it. He has been around Epsom, Royal Ascot, Glorious Goodwood and nothing disturbs him. You can not mistake him.
It is wonderful for him to be placed in precisely the exact identical sentence as Frankel, however hes got to go out and do it again a year ago.
What people would be questioning is that he isnt the largest horse in the world, but he is a very neat racehorse that ticks a good deal of boxes.
Given how Pinatubo finished the Dewhurst, his handler expects him to have no trouble stepping up at the Rowley Mile in May 2000 Guineas back to a mile at the Qipco.
He said:William (Buick) obtained away and said straight away that the mile would not be any problem. The fantastic thing about him, which will help him see out it, is that he switches off so well.
We all know how long the winter is with horses that are exciting, but hopefully we can put this to bed and look forward to the Guineas.
Whether hes got a prep run before it, then which is discussion to be needed in January/February time
While Pintatubo demonstrated a brand new side along with showing that he has the ability to deal with testing conditions, it was a triumph that eased a different concern in the mind of Appleby.
He added:My only worry going to it was that as he is so laid back, he would moving in a horse box 10 minutes up the road wake him up enough, as all his runs have been much away, but as we sawhe was fine.
His past two races he had won , admittedly they were to a sounder surface, but what we saw was him do it in more of a fighting manner in states that were likely to be test for all the runners.
William had to cajole him but after he hit the rising ground and obtained to Arizona, I was convinced he was about to pull away just like he has done in all his races.
Appleby commended the role Godolphin supremo Sheikh Mohammed has played in Pinatubos success story, with picked him as a celebrity this past year.
He said:I just wish to emphasise how good this is for Sheikh Mohammed, since he saw this horse in the farms this time last year and chose him out and thankfully allow him return to Moulton Paddocks.
For him to have experienced that interest from the beginning with a home-bred as well as watch the horse flourish is terrific for him and the complete Godolphin team
