LEAGUE OF HIS OWN
CAROLUS MAGNUS (6.40) can extend Andrew Balding’s winning run in the Racing League at Lingfield.
Impressive at Newmarket in April, he was then edged out by Just Beautiful later that month at Chelmsford.
That race is working out well so this rapid improver should triumph after a break.
ELECTRIC LOVE (5.10) can spark success in the opening sprint for shrewd Tom Clover.
Narrowly denied a hat-trick by Newyorkstateofmind at Wolverhampton a fortnight ago, the filly is still in form returning to turf.
AKKERINGA (5.40) stands out in the six-furlong handicap.
Stuart Williams’ gelding hit back when third behind Night Of Romance in a similar event at Doncaster three weeks ago.
The three-year-old is still on an attractive mark so ought to strike with in-form Marco
Ghiani in the saddle. Roger Varian is in terrific form so it’s worth backing DINOO (6.10).
The three-year-old atoned for his Royal Ascot flop when slamming Monhammer in a Haydock novice last month and looks primed to continue his revival back in a handicap.
MYKONOS ST JOHN (7.10) should bag the first all-weather race on the card for team Osborne after his respectable third to Overwrite at Bath.
RED OCTOBER (7.40) can sink some in-form rivals for Hugo Palmer in the lucky last.
The gelding put in another solid shift when chinned by Sword Beach in a decent event at Windsor last week.
The five-year-old is even better on the all-weather so can strike off a workable mark.
SPIRIT LEVEL (3.05) ought to enhance team Balding’s fine record at Ffos Las. The gelding improved again when just denied by Hellavapace at Lingfield this month. There is plenty to come from the threeyear-old who looks poised to prevail under David Probert.
ROYAL PARTNERSHIP (3.40) should reign for Saeed bin Suroor in the Weatherbys Handicap. The three-year-old relished 1m 2f when seeing off Pactolus in last month’s handicap debut at Yarmouth so can defy a lenient 1lb penalty.
Tony Carroll’s SOCIAL CITY (4.10) looks set to build on a fine second to Summer’s Knight here a fortnight ago.
