Fancy winning £/€10k today?
13:50 – Withhold
2021 runner-up WITHHOLD faces a weaker field than he did when making most last year, and Harry & Roger Charlton’s veteran has run well enough in unsuitable events to suggest he’s lost very little of his ability. Now lower in the weights than he was 12 month ago, he can give younger rivals a galloping lesson.

14:25 – Checkandchallenge
CHECKANDCHALLENGE represents the yard which won the York Stakes at the weekend, and this colt’s only poor run was when too free in the 2000 Guineas. He ran a huge race to be second off a mark of 108 at Sandown last time, and I think a repeat of that (assuming not given too much to do again) will be good enough to win a substandard Group 3.
15:00 – Blue for You
I’ve been keen on BLUE FOR YOU for a while, especially as he’s been allotted stall 1, which ought to be a big help. He’s looked better than ever on his last two runs at York, finishing best both times, and is 3lb lower than when beaten a head on Saturday as this is an early closing race; the quick turnaround is a slight concern, but he is clearly ahead of the handicapper.

15:35 – Ponntos
PONNTOS overpriced on the basis of his impressive win in the Prix De Saint-Georges at Longchamp on his return, and has Frankie Dettori back in the plate today after showing blinding speed in the King’s Stand under Czech rider Tomas Lubasek. It’s no surprise he faded badly after leading Nature Strip that day, but it’s very easy to forgive that given the track and his rider’s inexperience at the highest level.
16:10 – Rebel’s Romance
REBEL’S ROMANCE has been campaigned on dirt in Dubai as a rule, but he looked a natural on turf when winning on his first start on the surface at Newmarket last month. He meets some talented, but hard-to-win-with rivals on this step up from Listed company, and he looks the safest choice despite rather cramped odds.

16:45 – Silencer
SILENCER had Newbury winner Felix Natalis behind when narrowly beaten in a Chester maiden last time. He’d shown plenty of ability prior to that, finishing just behind Bolt Action in the Windsor Castle Stakes from a worse draw. He’s weighted to reverse form now, and a gelding operation since Chester is likely to improve his focus.
