Myretown will limber up for the Coral Gold Cup at Newbury with a racecourse schooling session after Ayr’s Saturday fixture.
The gelding won the Ultima for Lucinda Russell at the Cheltenham Festival in April, with Michael Scudamore now adding his name to the licence for the upcoming season.
In preparation for his seasonal debut Myretown will school over fences across a two-mile distance under Derek Fox, a piece of work intended to compliment previous racecourse gallops at the same track and at Perth.
Russell said: “We are extremely grateful to Ayr for allowing us to school Myretown after racing on Saturday and the session will be an important part of his build-up to the Coral Gold Cup.
“We would also like to thank the BHA who have approved this racecourse schooling session.
“This is an example of Scottish racecourses proactively working together for the betterment of the sport north of the Border.’’
