Argentine Tango booked for Lowther Stakes bid

Argentine Tango will stay closer to home for her next start with Tim Easterby planning a raid on the Sky Bet Lowther Stakes at York.

The Mattmu filly has kept on improving all season, winning a Listed race at Newmarket before finishing third to Venetian Sun in the Duchess of Cambridge Stakes.

Last week at Goodwood she found only the Ger Lyons-trained Lady Iman too good in the Molecomb Stakes over five furlongs and will step back up to six at York for the Great Habton trainer.

“She’s come out of Goodwood really well. She’s tough, she must be because she’s had seven races now and keeps coming back for more,” said Easterby.

“You get racehorses every now and again who just want to gallop and she is one of them.

“She’ll go back up to six furlongs now, she definitely runs in the Lowther next and she won’t be without a chance.

“She’s been a bit of a star for us already this season.”
