EUGINIO THE A-LISTER
EUGINIO (3.30) can get the party started by landing the Listed Gala Stakes at Sandown.
Richard Hannon’s charge took a valuable course and distance handicap last year and improved again when a fine second in last month’s Wolferton at Royal Ascot.
The four-year-old should still be open to plenty of improvement at this stage and can go one better slightly down in class.
(1.20) is a safe bet in the opening London Insurance Handicap. Mike
RIO RONALDO
BY GARRY OWEN Murphy’s sprinter has a good record over this stiff five furlongs and can shrug off a 6lb hike for his comfortable Salisbury success. Mick Channon’s
(1.50) can burn them away in the Listed Dragon Stakes.
The juvenile flopped in the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot but he can return to winning ways with a repeat of his decisive victory at Beverley in May.
The Besso Handicap looks
INTHEBUNGLE JUNGLE
trappy but I’m siding with William Haggas’s ( 4.05). The four- year- old improved again when beating Rainbow Rebel on the all-weather at Chelmsford and can follow up back on Turf despite a 6lb hike.
The Sequel Handicap is also tight but I like the look of Ed Walker’s (4.40).
The four-year-old was just denied by the well-handicapped Vis A Vis over course and distance and can gain compensation off just a 1lb higher mark.
(5.15) can take the
DARK PEARL BIOTIC ALFARRIS
lady amateurs’ contest for Brian Millman. The seven-year-old likes the Esher venue and can remain nicely treated under a 6lb hike after a win at Leicester.
At Doncaster (3.10) can land the feature classified event. David O’Meara’s gelding recorded another career-best when scoring narrowly at Redcar and will take all the beating with further progress expected.
Saeed bin Suroor’s (3.45) rates a confident selection in the fillies’ handicap.
The daughter of Dubawi
HAJJAM ASOOF
landed a strong Redcar contest with plenty in hand and should be even better upped to 1m 4f.
Saxon Warrior will make an unexpected appearance in tomorrow’s Eclipse Stakes at Sandown.
Aidan O’Brien has allowed last Saturday’s Irish Derby third to take his chance in the Group 1 after he worked well yesterday.
The Deep Impact colt faces a fascinating rematch with Masar and Roaring Lion who both finished ahead of him in last month’s Epsom Derby.
