Hala Bek off course

Nick Robson


HALA BEK is set for another spell on the sidelines after meeting with a slight setback.

Godolphin's five-year-old, who returned with a devastating display at Nottingham after a two-year absence, was slightly stiff after his comeback run.

As a result, Saeed bin Suroor is in no rush to set the 2006 Epsom Derby fourth any particular target.

"Hala Bek has had a setback and I think it happened in the race," said the trainer. "The next day we found him to be a little stiff. "We know he is a good horse so we don't want to rush him, we need to give him time so that he is happy and sound.

"We are just going to give him time so we have no plans for him at the moment."
