6f Unibet Richmond Stakes (Group 2) (Colts & Geldings) (Class 1) (2yo) This race has been kind to us with two winners from the last three renewals, and I fancy Clive Cox’s CATURRA to keep that good run going. He’s 12/1 and has a lot in his favour as he’s travelled powerfully but…
1pt win Snow Lantern @6/1, 1pt win Alcohol Free @13/2, 15:35 Goodwood, Wednesday
1m Qatar Sussex Stakes (Group 1) (British Champions Series) (Class 1) (3yo+) This looks like an ideal betting market with an odds-on favourite whose only defeats this season have come on soft ground – and the going is heavy. I can’t split the two three-year-old fillies in this race, SNOW LANTERN and ALCOHOL…
1pt win Wonderful Tonight @8/1, 15:35 Ascot, Saturday
1m4f (1m3f211y) King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Qipco Stakes (Group 1) (British Champions Series) (Class 1)(3yo+) WONDERFUL TONIGHT‘s participation in the King George won’t be confirmed until 2:30pm as the trainer waits for rain, but she’s drifted to 8/1 and that now looks too big. Her form really stacks up and we…
1pt win Attagirl @15/2, 1pt win Nazanin @10/1, 13:50 Ascot, Saturday
6f Princess Margaret Keeneland Stakes (Group 3) (Fillies) (Class 1) (2yo) This race has been kind to me in recent years and I fancy ATTAGIRL could keep that going. She’s 15/2 and I really liked the way she quickened last time out at Haydock. The form is there to be shot at but…
1pt win Mr McCann @11/1, 15:15 Newmarket, Saturday
7f (July) bet365 Superlative Stakes (Group 2) (Class 1) (2yo) I like MR MCCANN‘s chance here at 11/1 as he gave plenty of weight away on his turf debut and won impressively, pulling clear of Triple Time. That gives him a fairly favourable collateral formline with the favourite here Dhabab, who is being backed…
July Cup A-Z and selections
ART POWER (17) 14/1 He’s been banging on the door in Group One sprints but only when the ground is softer, which must be by design. He’ll need rain and even then will probably come up short again. BRANDO (1) 80/1 Past his best and on the downgrade. CHIL CHIL…
1pt win Primo Bacio @6/1 15:35 Newmarket, Friday
1m (July) Tattersalls Falmouth Stakes (Group 1) (British Champions Series) (Fillies & Mares) (Class 1) The Falmouth Stakes looks like a really competitive affair and represents the first occassion where the Classic generation take on their elders. However 9lbs is a lot of weight for the older horses to give…
1pt win Auria @11/2, 15:00 Sandown, Saturday
An interesting looking fillies race where Statement is a very warm order at shorter than 2/1. She undeniably has the pick of the form running Alcohol Free close in the Fred Darling but besides that she hasn’t been the most consistent and she got turned over at 7/4 last time…
1pt win Nahaarr @5/1, 1pt win Glen Shiel @7/1, 16:20 Saturday, Royal Ascot
6f Diamond Jubilee Stakes (Group 1) (British Champions Series) (Class 1) Dream Of Dreams is a worthy favourite for the Diamond Jubilee, but he has bombed out on soft ground over this course before and it’s he never always does waht you want him to do in these big Group…
Royal Ascot Friday bets: New Science (7/1), Great Max (10/1), Creative Force (6/1), Light Refrain (12/1), Albaflora (11/2)
7f Chesham Stakes (Listed Race) (Class 1) (2yo) The heavy ground might be against the favourite Port Lonsdale here and there’s a nice shape to the market with only ten runners. I’m firing two darts as I think both NEW SCIENCE (7/1) and GREAT MAX (10/1) should be shorter in the betting. Both…
