6f Coral Stewards’ Cup (Heritage Handicap) (Class 2) (3yo+) There has been plenty of hype around Orazio for Charlie Hills. He was sent off favourite for the Wokingham, but may have been unsuited by the faster going and the return to a softer surface can see him in a much…

1m Bonhams Thoroughbred Stakes (Group 3) (Class 1) (3yo) Baeed won this race in 2021 on his way to becoming a Group 1 superstar and connections of Nostrum are hoping he can go on to reach top pattern-class level too. Nostrum has eye-catching two-year-old form and looked fairly impressive on…

1m4f  (1m3f211y) King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Qipco Stakes (Group 1) (British Champions Series)  (Class 1)(3yo+) I can’t remember a better King George lineup and everyone down to last year’s winner, 8/1 shot Pyledriver, can win this. He’ll put up a bold show but won’t get his optimum conditions and I don’t…

1m4f (1m3f211y) Hardwicke Stakes (Group 2) (Class 1) (4yo+) The quirky GRAND ALLIANCE has a lot of talent when he puts it all together, and should have won at the Royal meeting last year when hanging badly across the track to gift the race to Changingoftheguard. He then went off…

7f Chesham Stakes (Listed Race) (Class 1) (2yo) Another tricky 2yo race but there’s two I like for contrasting reasons. NEMONTE is a maiden winner but won with bundles up his sleeve at Curragh over a stiff 6f. The winning margin disguised his superiority and I love the way he…

7f Jersey Stakes (Group 3) (Class 1) (3yo) The Frankie factor probably means that Covey has been overbet here and although he looks like a progressive horse, the form of his recent Haydock success has taken quite a few knocks. The Antartic received a strong form boost with Ocean Quest…

6f Wokingham Stakes (Heritage Handicap) (Class 2) (3yo+ 0-110) Class and an ability to stay +7 furlongs have tended to produce the winner of the Wokingham in recent years and that’s where we have landed with our selections. There were big things expected of KHANJAR as a three-year-old last season…

6f Commonwealth Cup (Group 1) (British Champions Series) (No Geldings) (Class 1) (3yo) The market is priced up based on last season’s juvenile sprinting form and I’m not so keen on following those horses that have tried their luck in a Guineas contest over a mile this season. Little Big…

6f Albany Stakes (Group 3) (Fillies) (Class 1) (2yo) A really tough race but I’m confident PERSIAN DREAMER is the wrong price at 25/1. She was really impressive in a Newmarket maiden but things didn’t go her way next time at York. We know the ability is there and the step up in…

1m (7f213y) (Rnd) Coronation Stakes (Group 1) (British Champions Series) (Fillies) (Class 1) (3yo) A hot renewal but I’m willing to forgive MAMMAS GIRL her 1,000 Guineas flop on account of the bad ground. She’s a massive price at 25/1 with only six opponents and I suspect the round course…
