Flashy Wings.
 
Long awaited reappearance on British soil.

From the Racing Post,
By Neil Morrice
MICK CHANNON on Sunday reported Flashy Wings to be bang on target for Royal Ascot, where one of the top juvenile fillies of 2005 has a choice of engagements.

The trainer had been set to run her in the Windsor Forest Stakes but is now considering the Group 1 Queen Anne Stakes as well.

Flashy Wings has not run on home soil this year, having made her reappearance at the Dubai World Cup meeting in March. Her performances on the home gallops since coming back into full training suggests the four-year-old can justify owner Jaber Abdullah's decision to keep her in training.

Channon said: "I've been very pleased with Flashy and we'll probably make a decision about Ascot after she's worked on Tuesday. The Windsor Forest Stakes is a good race for the fillies, and while the Queen Anne mightbe a bit tougher, she looks to have retained all her ability."

He worked the other day (too early for me to see him though) but everyone who did remarked about how calm he was for a sprinter. Most sprinters are really buzzy types that will go mad in wide open spaces, but apparently he is really laid back about everything.
