Wedding Dance second in G3 Prix Six Perfections

Two-year-old filly Wedding Dance took another significant step forward in her fledgling career with a good second in the G3 Prix Six Perfections over seven furlongs at Deauville, France, on Saturday, 1 August.

The Charlie Appleby-trained daughter of Invincible Spirit, an impressive all-the-way winner of a Newmarket maiden over the same distance on Saturday, 11 July, broke well and was sent to the front of the six runners by James Doyle.

Wedding Dance started to wind up the pace at the top of the straight and rallied when pressed on her outside by See The Rose with a furlong left. She stayed on after being headed approaching the final half-furlong, going down by three-quarters of a length.

Charlie Appleby said: “We were very pleased with Wedding Dance, who was beaten by a good filly in See The Rose. James Doyle said afterwards that he is confident that a mile will suit, so we will hopefully have a look at another Group race over that trip.”
