1m  (Row) Kingdom Of Bahrain Sun Chariot Stakes (Group 1) (Fillies & Mares) (British Champions Series)  (Class 1)(3yo+) A very competitive race and I’m backing two-time Newmarket Group One winner BILLESDON BROOK to land back-to-back renewals. Soft ground should be okay and she is brilliant at Newmarket. Her form this season has been…

1m6f  Qatar Prix de Royallieu (Group 1) (3yo+ Fillies & Mares) (Grande Course) (Turf)  (3yo+) As races go, this is wide open. I wouldn’t want to put you off backing Manuela De Vega or Pista but it’s difficult to argue either should be any shorter in the betting as heavy ground is…

1m (1m37y) Close Brothers Handicap (Class 2) There is some nice racing over at Newmarket, but one that stands out over at Haydock is MILLTOWN STAR for Mick Channon in a handicap. The Close Brothers is often won by three-year-olds and he remains unexposed having shaped pretty well on his…

6f (Row) Juddmonte Middle Park Stakes (Group 1) (Colts) (Class 1) (2yo) Another good betting heat with first-season sire Mehmas represented by the 2nd, 3rd and 4th favourites who have all shown raw speed this season. It’s hard to pick between them but I think Method has the weakest form so doesn’t deserve to…

6f (Row) Juddmonte Cheveley Park Stakes (Group 1) (Fillies) (Class 1) (2yo) A good renewal with plenty of chances and no stand-out performer. Miss Amulet was good at York where she beat Sacred well. That could very well be the best form line on offer but both are on the short side, given Sacred…

1m2f Moyglare ”Jewels” Blandford Stakes (Group 2) (Fillies & Mares) A fantastic looking renewal of this fillies and mares race. Magic Wand is set to go off favourite and has been well-supported. She will set a strong gallop, but there are plenty of three-year-olds that could improve opposing her and…

5f Derrinstown Stud Flying Five Stakes (Group 1) (Breeders’ Cup Challenge Race) 2019 Prix De L’Abbaye winner Glass Slippers sets the standard here as the only Group 1 winner in the Flying Five stakes. That tells you all you need to know about this race with it being wide open…

7f  Goffs Vincent O’Brien National Stakes (Group 1)  (2yo) This is an absolute corker of a race with so many horses holding strong claims. Lucky Vega looks really good and is the right favourite but he’s got serious opposition here. He was beaten by a 66/1 shot LAWS OF INDICES before emphatically…

7f  Moyglare Stud Stakes (Group 1) (Fillies) (Breeders’ Cup Challenge Race)  (2yo) The market is very strong towards Simply Gorgeous being better than Donnacha O’Brien’s SHALE but I think they’re very closely matched. It’s 1-1 between them this season and Simply Gorgeous’s win last time was crucially on soft ground. Shale reminds…

1m4f  Juddmonte Grand Prix de Paris (Group 1) (3yo Colts & Fillies) (Grande Course) (Turf)  (3yo) An interesting race as shock Derby winner Serpentine makes his reappearance with so many doubting the value of his big win given the way he stole a massive advantage mid-race. Aidan O’Brien has his classic ‘he’s…
