Room Service delivers for Ryan at Doncaster

Kevin Ryan’s Room Service signalled he could be a force to be reckoned with next year when signing out for the season with a win in the Livescore Bet Wentworth Stakes at Doncaster.

The three-year-old landed a valuable sales race on Town Moor last term and Ryan thought enough of him to start his campaign in a Guineas trial.

While he failed to cut much ice in his first two runs in the Greenham and the Carnarvon Stakes, he bounced back to win after a small break at Pontefract, after which he had a wind operation.

He then finished midfield in the Ayr Gold Cup before running a stormer in second at York in a valuable race and stepped back into Listed company, his class shone through.

Ridden confidently by Tom Eaves, he had the whole field covered as he made his run in the middle of the track, and the 100-30 chance held off the late thrust of the rapidly-improving Balmoral Lady by a neck.

“He’s a very talented horse and that’s a great way to finish,” said Ryan.

“There’s a Listed race next week at Newcastle we were looking at but I think he’s crying out for seven furlongs really. I just thought they might go slow and sprint at Newcastle, which is how they tend to be run there, so we came here instead.

“I’ve always thought plenty of him, he started out in a Guineas trial and he’s still got improvement in him.

“We sorted his wind out in the summer and that has made a big difference, I think we can have some proper fun with him next year.

“He’s lightly raced, he’s got a touch of class and he should get further.”
