Phoenix Stakes tips
Matt Chapman: This is a cracker. BLACKBEARD was only fourth behind Bradsell and Persian Force in the Coventry at Royal Ascot and can’t beat those two on that form. But I suspect he didn’t run to his best that day and he was right back to looking a monster at Chantilly last time in Group 2 company. The son of No Nay Never stays well and might be a different proposition here to at Ascot now that he is back on home soil.
Frank Hickey: The Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot has worked out incredibly well for the winner, BRADSELL. The second, Persian Force won the July Stakes; the third Royal Scotsman won the Richmond Stakes and the fourth, Blackbeard, won the Group 2 Robert Papin. Little Big Bear brings Windsor Castle winning form into the race and that has worked out really well also.
Timeform: BRADSELL is the only unbeaten runner in this Group 1 contest and Archie Watson’s impressive Coventry winner can maintain his unblemished record at the chief expense of Aidan O’Brien’s improving Little Big Bear who bids for a four-timer. Persian Force, Blackbeard and Shartash can fight it out for minor honours.
