SPORTSLENS 1-2-3
1. MIGHTY ULYSSES @ 11/8 with 888Sport
2. ALFLAILA @ 4/1 with 888Sport
3. CADILLAC @ 13/2 with 888Sport
MIGHTY ULYSSES @ 11/8 with 888Sport can give Frankie Dettori another win in this race that he’s got such a fine record in. He’s mopped up 4 of the last 19 runnings and looks to have a top chance again riding the highest-rated field. A nice winner last time out at Newmarket, where he beat Alfaila by 1 1/2 and can confirm that form with the Owen Burrows runner.
Bashkirova and Cadillac can do best of the rest for the Kevin Philippart De Foy camp having run an fair second at Newbury last month – the drop in trip will suit and this doesn’t look the strongest G3.
2.25 – Sky Bet Melrose Stakes (Handicap) Cl2 1m6f ITV
- 17/19 – Never raced at York before
- 16/19 – Had 4 or more runs that season
- 15/19 – Had a top 5 finish last time out

- 14/19 – Won carrying 9-0 or less

SPORTSLENS 1-2-3
1. WILD CRUSADE @ 6/1 with 888Sport
2. SOUL STOPPER @ 13/2 with 888Sport
3. AL NAFIR @ 5/1 with 888Sport
WILD CRUSADE (e/w) @ 6/1 with 888Sport will be flying the flag for the Charlie Appleby yard that have won this race twice in the last four years. With Appleby also having Al Nafir (Dettori) in the race the fact William Buick has picked Wild Crusade is significant, while this 3 year-old heads here having won 3 of his last 4 and was impressive in one of those successes at Ascot last time.
Soul Stopper is the other of interest for the Andrew Balding yard that also have a good record in the race – winning the last two renewals. He comes here having dotted-up at Chester last time out.
3.00 – Sky Bet City Of York Stakes (Listed Race) Cl1 7f ITV
- 18/19 – Failed to win last time out
- 17/19 – Aged 5 or younger
- 16/19 – Priced 7/1 or shorter
- 14/19 – Drawn in stalls 4 to 8 (inc)
- 14/19 – Finished in the top 5 last time out
- 13/19 – Never run at York before
- 12/19 – Winning distance 1 length or less
- 11/19 – Had 4 or more runs that season
- 8/19 – Winning favourites (1 joint)
- 3/19 – Won by trainer Sir Michael Stoute
- 3/19 – Won by trainer Andrew Balding
- 2/19 – Placed horses from stall 1
SPORTSLENS 1-2-3
1. KINROSS @ 4/1 with 888Sport
2. ROHAAN @ 7/1 with 888Sport
3. BRAD THE BRIEF @ 8/1 with 888Sport
KINROSS (e/w) @ 4/1 with 888Sport will face some strong challengers in Sacred and Sandrine, but the Ralph Beckett runner was only beaten a next by Sandrine last time at Goodwood in the Lennox Stakes. He ran on well that day so is take to reverse the form with Frankie riding again.
Two-time Wokingham Handicap winner – Rohaan – wsa a fine fourth in a G1 in France last time out and now eased into a Group 2 looks worth a try over this 7f trip again.
Brad The Brief is the other of interest after winning his last two. This Hugo Palmer runner has clearly improved this season and continued that upward curve last time by taking the G2 Greenlands Stakes at the Curragh. He’s been freshened up since (3 months), but goes well off a break and could be ready to rumble during the closing months of the season.

SPORTSLENS 1-2-3
1. GAASSEE @ 8/1 with 888Sport
2. EARL OF TYRONE @ 11/2 with 888Sport
3. LICENCE @ 10/1 with 888Sport
GAASSEE (e/w) @ 8/1 with 888Sport ticks a fair few of the main trends, including age (4) and weight (9-5), so is taken to give trainer William Haggas his first winner the Ebor Handicap. This 4 year-old is still lightly-raced with just 6 runs, but has won four of those and returned from a 2 month break to run third (of 17) in the Old Newton Cup at Haydock last time out.
He’s a proven course winner – winning the trial Jorvik Handicap – too and looks the sort to get better now trying the longer 1m6f trip for the first time. He’s also been freshened up with 49 days off and connections are mixing it up with jockey Kieran Shoemark riding him for the first time.
Many other chances with 22 runners heading to post, but it’s a race the Irish love to target – winning 6 of the last 13 renewals. They’ve got six running again this year, but it’s Earl Of Tyrone and Licence that standout.
Earl Of Tyrone has won his last three from t1m4f to 1m6f and is only up another 3lbs from the last of those wins, which came at Limerick in a Listed contest. Regular rider, Billy Lee, comes over for the ride on this Paddy Twomey 4 year-old.
Licence is the other to note for the Irish Ger Lyons yard, who won this in 2019. Lightly-raced with only four career runs under his belt. Only career win so far came on debut at Gowran Park, but has been gelded since and ran in a better race (G3) last time at Leopardstown. He stayed on well over that 1m4f trip so the extra 2 furlongs here will also be in his favour – looks the sort to have more to come.
4.10 – Sky Bet Constantine Handicap (Class 2) (3yo+) 6f ITV
- No previous runnings
- Trainer Simon Crisford has a 31% record with their 4+ year-olds at the track
- Trainer Kevin Ryan is only 4-from-90 (4%) with their 4+ year-olds at the track
SPORTSLENS 1-2-3
1. SALEYYMM @ 14/1 with 888Sport
2. MUMS TIPPLE @ 10/1 with 888Sport
3. REGIONAL @ 6/1 with 888Sport
SALEYYMM (e/w) @ 14/1 with 888Sport is a tentative pick in another minefield of a race. 20 runners head to post for this but with a 31% record at the track with their 4+ year-olds a chance is taking on the Crisford runner. Didn’t stay the 1m trip the last day at Goodwood, so the drop back here to 6f is a good move, but has also won over 7f which will help. Silvestre De Sousa rides.
Mums Tipple got back to winning ways last time at Newmarket in good fashion under Frankie Dettori and he rides again, while the consistent Regional makes up our ‘small stakes’ trio in a race that a cases can be made for most.
