CHELTENHAM, England -- Pretty Crystal was no better than second in four consecutive Group 3 races for 2-year-old fillies from June to September in Britain last year.
The storyline has started on a much brighter note this year.
On Wednesday at Newmarket, Pretty Crystal rallied through the final quarter-mile to win her first stakes in the Group 3 Nell Gwyn Stakes for 3-year-old fillies at seven furlongs.

Pierre Ng is looking to up the ante in his bid to win a maiden Hong Kong trainers’ championship when he heads to Happy Valley tomorrow night (Wednesday, 17 April) armed with eight chances across the nine-race fixture.
Ng led by 16 wins at Christmas, but now his margin is five (55-50) as a rampaging Francis Lui surged to a half-century with a treble at Sha Tin on Sunday (14 April).

AINTREE, England – The gelding with the catchy name had a flashy finish in Saturday’s Grade 1 Grand National at about 4 1/4 miles at Aintree Racecourse.
What I Am Maximus did from the final fence to the wire – a distance of slightly less than 500 yards – was nothing less than brilliant.
Ridden by Paul Townend for trainer Willie Mullins, I Am Maximus closed from about eighth after the 30th and final fence to take the lead in deep stretch. He rapidly pulled clear to win the $1.24 million race by 7 1/2 lengths as the 7-1 co-favorite with bookmakers.
AINTREE, England – A month later than expected, Jonbon won his first Grade 1 race of 2024 in Friday’s $314,125 Melling Chase at 2 1/2 miles at Aintree Racecourse, the fourth consecutive favorite or co-favorite to win in as many races on the seven-race program.
Regaleira is the lone filly facing colts in Sunday’s Grade 1 Japanese 2000 Guineas at Nakayama Racecourse, a familiar scenario for the two-time winner.
Last December, Regaleira beat 14 males and one other filly as the 2-1 co-favorite in a field of 16 in the Grade 1 Hopeful Stakes at 1 1/4 miles at Nakayama, her final start of the year.
