The Group Three Legacy Cup Stakes at Newbury has the feel of a rematch between Desert Encounter and Second Step. Perhaps the class horse is My Dream Boat, though, after he beat the subsequent Arc winner in a Group One at Royal Ascot last year, but he’s been running well…

Waterlogging has forced the abandonment of Ayr’s big Gold Cup card, but it’s good ground at Newbury where there are three Group races to get stuck into. The sprint at 16:00 looks a good betting race with plenty of known quantities. Muthmir is one of them and has to saddle…

Earlier on the Doncaster St Leger card the Champagne Stakes could provide Classic clues for next season’s 2000 Guineas. Raced over Doncaster’s flat seven furlongs with forecast good-to-soft ground, the betting looks tricky as plenty have chances. None more so than the favourite MYTHICAL MAGIC – a big horse who’s two-from-two…

We’ve an above-average field for this year’s St Leger at Doncaster, the third and final English Classic race for three-year-olds this season. I’m not sold on joint-favourite Crystal Ocean’s credentials given he’s unproven at Group One level and over this staying trip. He won a Group Three on dire ground…

I can’t help but think the five-year-old BLOND ME has been underestimated in Sunday’s Arc trial, the Prix Vermeille. Raced over the Arc course and distance of 12 furlongs at Chantilly, this is a step into unknown territory for Andrew Balding’s mare. Similar comments applied last time out when she…

Japan’s big hope for October’s Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe, Satono Diamond, runs in Sunday’s trial at Chantilly, and the skinny odds-on quotes are tempting to take on. This of course is just a stepping stone to the big one and he’s totally unproven against both European opposition and ground…

There’s more top-class racing on Sunday’s Curragh card as the best two-year-old fillies clash in the Moyglare Stud Stakes over seven furlongs. This looks an excellent renewal and, as per usual, Aidan O’Brien holds all the aces from his strong-looking juvenile crop. We backed Clemmie at Royal Ascot to no…

Last year’s winner Almanzor has been retired so there’ll be no defence of his Irish Champions Stakes today at Leopardstown, and Aidan O’Brien’s dual-Guineas winner Churchill is the clear favourite to inherit his crown. Beaten potentially by extremely fast ground at Royal Ascot and some serious class in the shape…

A massive weekend of racing lies ahead with day one of Leopardstown’s Irish Champions Weekend being Saturday’s highlight. We tipped the winner of both Group Ones last year with 6/1 Alice Springs in the Matron Stakes and 13/2 Almanzor, now sadly retired, landing a vintage renewal of the Irish Champion…

There are further showers forecast at Haydock overnight with the ground already riding soft on Friday afternoon, so it looks set to be extremely testing conditions. The Group 1 Sprint Cup represents the main attraction on the card, but the 32Red Mile Group 3 later on looks a decent contest…
