SO BELOVED, second in the City Of York Stakes last year, looks to have a great chance of going one better this afternoon. The David O’Mearatrain­ed seven-year-old has been fitted with a hood for its last two runs and the headgear seems to have had a positive effect. With a clearer run at Glorious Goodwood last time out, So Beloved might have won the Lennox Stakes. Today, Adam Kirby’s mount has decent draw in stall six and seems to act on any ground. Battaash is probably the best five-furlong sprinter in Europe but in Wesley Ward’s LADY AURELIA he may be taking on the best five-furlong horse in the

world world. Frankie Dettori’s mount was devastatin­g when winning the King’s Stand Stakes at Royal Ascot and, now she settles better, she is more controlled but even more formidable.

AMAZING RED has not had a lot of racing and, after being gelded, was a decisive Newmarket winner. He could be the answer to the Sky Bet First Race Special Handicap.
