ALBASHEER is an outdated favorite of mine and this 5f journey ought to go well with. He was overwhelmed by solely lower than half a size final time when fourth at Doncaster, having been chinned within the Beverly Bullet earlier than that. He likes to return late and quick.
I’ve no main conviction on this, however PHANTOM FLIGHT has a number one likelihood. The type of his York second to See The Hearth is figuring out properly. He may need just a few lbs to search out with Enfjaar and Sir Busker, however he is bound to run his race.
A 1m5f handicap with the veteran Not So Sleepy among the many subject. ITHACA’S ARROW is slightly below the radar and has discovered his type this season as a four-year-old. He received properly final week at Chester and might win extra races on the Flat earlier than an Autumn hurdling marketing campaign. The journey is right and he’s versatile ground-wise. I’ll make him my nap of the day.
The comfort race for many who didn’t get into the Ayr Gold Cup and ROCK OPERA ought to be a pleasant value – however he comes with dangers. He took the attention at York in July and continued to run with benefit regardless of a succession of unhealthy attracts. His run at Ripon was disappointing and he most likely didn’t deal with the monitor. An each-way likelihood as he might be cold and hot. A low attract stall 4 and a beneficial mark can hopefully deliver out one of the best in him.
A 10f contest the place FLYING FRONTIER has had an interrupted marketing campaign however is again on trial now. He missed the John Smith’s Cup at York, ran poorly at Yarmouth, after which received properly at Sandown. He appears to be like to have extra enchancment and might win from stall two.
15:00 Ayr – Good Half (each-way)
This Group 3 6f Fillies’ contest has 13 declared, together with Irish challengers City and Nation and Grande Marques. The market will doubtless revolve round Sky Majesty – particularly if proprietor Tony Bloom will get concerned. Market help for the one-run, one-win filly can be important. PERFECT PART may very well be an outsider with an opportunity on her fifth begin. She received on debut at 125/1 at Beverley over 5f however hasn’t hit these heights since. Her final run within the Lowther at York was a creditable fifth of 9 and may very well be higher than given credit score for—an each-way play.
15:15 Newbury – Star Anthem (each-way)
We haven’t seen STAR ANTHEM for the reason that Coventry Stakes and he reappears now on this Group 2 Mill Reef Stakes at what appears to be like like a loopy value within the early markets. Coach Clive Cox has received this earlier than and this may very well be a goal quite than an afterthought. Shadow Of Gentle appears to be like just like the one to beat on his Gimcrack Stakes operating, nevertheless it’s up for grabs after that. Charlie Appleby has had 10 Group 1, 2, and three contest winners this season.
The function race on the cardboard is the Ayr Gold Cup, and I’ll go for one on all sides of the draw. I would go for a few win-only probabilities in forecasts, as most tempo runners are drawn excessive. ORAZIO in stall three appeals as one who might go properly again over 6f as that is his journey, not 7f. Billy Loughnane is booked for Charlie Hills, and he can go properly.
The three-year-old PILGRIM was progressive earlier within the season and is drawn in stall 25. He received properly at Royal Ascot over 5f earlier than disappointing at York. He might get a pleasant set-up with the tempo runners round him. Coach David Barron has had loads of top-class sprinters to know what’s what.
