The Apache 4th in Gr2 SkyBet York Stakes

The Apache didn't manage to improve South Africa's record in UK Gr2 races, finishing only 4th in the SkyBet York Stakes. He was well beaten in the end by Mukhadram and Grandeur but was nosed out of third by Wigmore Hall, a horse he beat by about 4 lengths in Dubai last time out.

That run was four months ago but Wigmore Hall has run twice since, so the way I'll look at this performance is that The Apache needed the run and should be closer to his best for the Arlington Million in three weeks time.
