There’s a familiar feel to this year’s Group-One Dewhurst Stakes, a seven-furlong heat for two-year-olds that has often crowed the champion juvenile. In Churchill, Aidan O’Brien once again has the odds-on favourite and it may be folly to take him on given the trainer’s ridiculous form in Group One races. An…

1pt win Richard Pankhurst @15/2, 1pt win Lumiere @11/1, 14:40 Newmarket, Friday
I’m giving LUMIERE one last chance in this Newmarket Group Two. I think, while a mile might stretch her stamina, seven furlongs is perfect for the daughter of Sharmadal – and she gets her ideal conditions of fast, firm ground. This is mostly based on the promise of her two-year-old campaign, where…
1.5pt win Harzand @8/1, 15:05 Chantilly, Sunday
Europe’s richest horse race, the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe, takes centre stage at its temporary home of Chantilly in northern France on Sunday, as its usual venue Longchamp undergoes redevelopment. There’s no doubt in my mind it’s the greatest horse race on the planet, known for big fields full…
0.5pt each-way Jimmy Two Times @14/1, 17:15 Chantilly, Sunday
The Prix De La Foret appears sewn-up by Limato, who looks unstoppable in claiming this prize at the second attempt. There are no challengers with the quality of the likes of Make Believe, or Mecca’s Angel to take him on this time, and unless the ground goes soft, he is the…
1pt First Of Spring @10/1, 13:10 Chantilly, Sunday
At 10/1 I’m backing the French filly FIRST OF SPRING in the opening Prix Marcel Boussac on Arc day at Chantilly this Sunday. An easy winner of her first two starts, she’s never raced at this level but her trainer Jean-Claude Rouget was quoted saying he’s having a hard time splitting her and…
1pt win Just Glamorous @8/1, 16:35 Chantilly, Sunday
The Prix De l’Abbaye is the final European five-furlong Group One sprint of the season, and this year’s renewal takes place at Chantilly as its usual home of Longchamp is being redeveloped. We tipped last year’s winner Goldream at 8/1, and he’s back for more. This season has been less…
0.5pt each-way Silver Line @28/1, 15:30 Newmarket, Saturday
This looks a highly-competitive renewal of the Middle Park Stakes, a six-furlong Group One for two-year-olds. Blue Point trades favourite after an authoritative win in the Gimcrack at York, where he had today’s opponents Mubtasim and Mokarris behind. Whilst Mubtasim bounced back to form next time out, I don’t see…
0.75pt each-way Argenterie @11/1, 15:05 Newmarket, Friday
Newmarket hosts its Cambridgeshire meeting and Friday’s card contains two Group Twos – the first of which, the Rockfel Stakes, looks worth a play. Fair Eva, sired by the mighty Frankel, lost her unbeaten record to another Frankel filly, Queen Kindly, last time out in the Lowther Stakes at York…
1pt win Robin Of Navan @11/4, 13:45 Newbury, Saturday
Just the one pick this weekend, with ROBIN OF NAVAN backed to bounce back to form at Newbury. Some 70cm+ rain has fallen at the track this week and the soggy going is right up his street, as he was a Group One winner last season on a similar surface.…
2pts win Yorker @9/4, 15:50 Sandown, Wednesday
Excuse the late selection, but I’ve just seen YORKER is running in a Listed race at Sandown this afternoon, and he looks big at 9/4. A Grade 1-winner in South Africa, he’s been switched over to William Haggis’s yard in England and made a fine reappearance behind Scottish at York’s Ebor meet.…
