Timoshenko to engineer a victory in Archerfield Cup Handicap

– Timoshenko looks a good bet to stretch his winning streak to five today in the Archerfield Cup Handicap at Musselburgh.

The type of horse trainer Sir Mark Prescott has made his reputation with, Timoshenko has thrived this term when stepped up to long trips, after showing little as a two-year-old.

He is unbeaten so far this term, with his latest victory coming over this distance of 3200m at Chepstow two weeks ago.

This Archipenko gelding has gone up 8kg since his spree began, but may still have more to come.
