The highlight of the Newmarket card tomorrow is a fascinating renewal of the Falmouth Stakes at 3.10. Looking back over the last 10 years the 3 year olds and their elders have shared the honours equally with 5 wins each. Strawberrydiquiri will be a tough opponent but I fancy the younger generation to just have the edge with Lillie Langtry. She looked good when taking the Coronation Stakes at Ascot and can win again here.
The handicaps look difficult to solve. Deacon Blue has won 2 of his 5 starts and although he has gone up in the weights there may be some improvement to come. He is my selection in the 2.00 with Swilly Ferry next best. I will give the 5.30 at miss but in the maiden at 4.20 Mata Keranjan and Nationalism look the pair to concentrate on.
Selections elsewhere. Catterick 3.20 Act of Kalanisi.
