Danon Decile ready to go in search of International honours
Danon Decile won the Sheema Classic at Meydan in April, beating the top-class Calandagan, who has won two Group Ones since, by a length and a quarter.
'We wanted to see how well he could settle behind another horse while going left-handed, and also get a sense of how much pressure he can handle once he's over there (in the UK). He's handled the heat well and managed his time leading up to quarantine smoothly,' Yasuda told Japan's Daily Sports.
'He's matured since the Dubai trip, but there's still a bit of youth in him. If he can grow from this experience, I'm excited about what's to come.'
