Another successful day with 4 winners across the various meetings. Nouriya and Mujdeya both won at Newbury in convincing fashion while Decorative was probably something of a handicap snip and looks good enough to do well at a higher grade. Uncle Keef recouped previous losses under a stylish ride from George Baker at Yarmouth.
There is an evening meeting at Chepstow tomorrow where the highlight is an interesting filly’s race at 8.05. There are some nice types in this, notably Desert Sage, while Miss Miracle is interesting entered again after finishing 3rd this afternoon. With the trainer and jockey in such sparkling form I quite fancy the lightly raced Ship’s Biscuit who will appreciate this step up in trip.
Mureb was an expensive purchase and is related to any number of winners. He is fancied to give Godolphin a winner in the 6.45 at Goodwood. Treble Jig was a disappointing beaten favourite on his seasonal reappearance but can make amends in the 7.55. Rule of Nature and London Gold look the pair to concentre on in the 8.35. Rule of Nature has been beaten by the same improving horse on both his starts this season and with that rival absent here he should have a good chance of recoding his first win of the season.
At Sandown Veroon has an each way chance in the 4.25.
Arabian Spirit could run well at a big price in the York 2.520 while Hawk Mountain and Royal Trooper are my two against the field in the 3.25.
