John Quinn confident with Safe Voyage in the skybet city of York Stakes

Safe Voyage bids to get back to winning ways in a "spicy" renewal of the Sky Bet City of York Stakes. The consistent John Quinn-trained seven-year-old, who won the Surrey Stakes at the Derby meeting on his penultimate outing, finished a close-up fourth in the Lennox Stakes at Goodwood last time out. He met trouble in running there - and while Quinn does not think that cost victory over Space Blues, it would still have been a much better run on paper than it initially looks                       Andrew Nelis Racing 

Safe Voyage claims the Surrey stakes on Derby Day Andrew Nelis

Safe Voyage took a while to hit his stride in the Investec Surrey Stakes - but eventually did so in style to emerge on top in the Listed prize. Trained by John Quinn and ridden by Jason Hart, Safe Voyage was sent off the 6-5 favourite on the back of a fine reappearance effort, but it was Shine So Bright who seized the early initiative. Silvestre de Sousa let the grey stride on and with a couple of furlongs to run it looked as though his front-running tactics would pay dividends.                      Andrew Nelis Racing
