1. NAVAL POWER 2. Seeking Gold 3. Dancing Magic
NAVAL POWER @ 1/3 with BetUK is expected to have an easy task of making it 4-from-4 here and remaining unbeaten. This Godolphin colt has been super-impressive in his opening three races and took another step forward last time when taking the Listed Pat Eddery Stakes at Ascot. Seeking Gold won well at Yarmouth last time and can do best of the rest, while more the Roger Teal runner Dancing Magic seems to be going the right way too.

1. REACH FOR THE MOON 2. Dark Shift 3. Brunch
REACH FOR THE MOON @ 15/8 with BetUK can eclipse his rivals here. The Gosden camp boast an impressive 33% record at the moment with their 3 year-olds at the track despite flopping in the Hampton Court Stakes last time at Royal Ascot is back to a mile here and has been freshened up with 79 days off. Frankie rides and the first-time visor is in place too. The in-form Charles Hills team have Royal Hunt Cup winner Dark Shift in the race too, while the Dods yard have a fair record with their runners and run Bunch – both have leading chances to pick up the place pieces.

2:20 – Get Daily Rewards With Betfair Handicap Cl2 (3yo) 1m6f ITV
1. TAMILLA 2. Pons Aelius 3. Australian Angel
TAMILLA (e/w) @ 9/2 with BetUK represents the William Haggas yard that won this race in 2020 and they also boast a decent 28% record at the track with their 3 year-olds. This Nathaniel filly also heads here off the back of two top wins at Ffos Las and Kempton so looks a filly on the up and worth sticking with of just a 5lb higher mark. Of the rest, the Mark Johnston and Andrew Balding yards have won 4 of the last 10 runnings (2 each) of this too, so of the rest their consistent Pons Aelius (Johnston) and Australian Angel (Balding) are worthy of interest too.

2:55 – Betfair Exchange Old Borough Cup Handicap Cl2 (3yo+ 0-105) 1m6f ITV
1. GOLDEN FLAME 2. Euchen Glen 3. Island Brave
GOLDEN FLAME (e/w) @ 9/1 with BetUK is a proven CD winner here and seems to be running into form after a close third at Ascot last time out on Shergar Cup Day. This Mark Johnston-trained 4 year-old was only beaten 3/4 of a length the last day and we know he stays a bit further than this 1m6f trip, which will help – the yard also won this in 2012. Of the others, last year’s winner, Island Brave, is back for more and can’t be ruled out off a 3lb lower mark. Reshoun and Euchen Glen are also past winners of this race going again and of that pair the former is holding his form well at this level despite his advancing years (9) and looks the sort to have a few more big race wins in him.
- Key Trends
- 18/19 – Had won over at least 1m4f before
- 18/19 – Had won at least twice before
- 17/19 – Had run 4 or more times that season
- 15/19 – Aged 3, 4 or 5 years-old
- 15/19 – Rated 90 to 101
- 14/19 – Finished 4th or better last time out
- 13/19 – Drawn in stall 7 or higher
- 11/19 – Had run over 1m6f before
- 10/19 – Carried 9-0 or more
- 10/19 – Ran at Haydock before
- 8/19 – Ran at York last time out
- 6/19 – Winning favourites (1 joint)
- 4/19 – Trained by Mark Johnston
- 2/19 – Trained by Ian Williams
- Island Brave (10/1) won the race in 2021
- Euchen Glen (14/1) won this race in 2020
- Reshoun (6/1) won this race in 2018

3:30 – Betfair Sprint Cup Stakes (Group 1) (British Champions Series) Cl1 (3yo+) 6f ITV
1. MINZAAL 2. Brad The Brief 3. Go Bears Go
MINZAAL @ 7/2 with BetUK has been popular in the betting all week for the day’s feature contest – the Group One Betfair Sprint Cup – and it’s easy to see why. This Owen Burrows-trained 4 year-old was a cracking second to Highfield Princess in the Maurice de Gheest (France) last time and the winner has boosted that form by landing the Nunthorpe Stakes at York last month. A repeat of that run, where he also had Naval Crown and Rohaan in behind, will make him hard to beat. Go Bears Go won the Phoenix Sprint Stakes at the Curragh last time and can go well too, while the improving CD winner Brad The Brief, who has won his last two, is another to have onside.
- Key Trends
- 18/20 – Unplaced horses from stall 1
- 17/20 – Rated 111 or higher
- 17/20 – Had won over 6f before
