Take Me With You to open her account

RACING: Noseda’s charge is cut above competitio­n at Windsor

- THE FERRET

It would be something of a surprise if TAKE ME WITH YOU cannot open her account at the third time of asking in the Bateaux Windsor Novice Stakes at Windsor.

Jeremy Noseda’s charge has hit the bar twice, finishing third on both occasions, but the form she has shown so far really makes her a cut above her rivals here.

Her initial effort at Newmarket at the start of June looked decent enough, but it is her second outing that really catches the eye as she was beaten just over three lengths in the Albany at Royal Ascot.

Take Me With You was arguably marginally disadvanta­ged in racing up the stands rail that day, but finishing third in Group Three company is not to be sniffed at and is well above anything these rivals have shown.

The fact she has been off the track since that outing is not ideal, but Noseda is more than capable of getting a horse ready off a break and given she retains a clutch of Group-race entries in the coming weeks, she must still be showing plenty at home.

While Take Me With You may not be much of a price, WILEY POST might be a bit better value in the Follow Us On Twitter At starsports-bet Handicap.

The four-year-old has not won since May of last year, when he was trained by Richard Hannon, but he has been running with credit for Tony Carroll this term, placing on three of his four outings to date.

ROYAL LINE makes a belated start to his racing career in the Call Star Spreads On 0808 234 9709 Maiden Stakes, but has a pedigree right out of the top drawer.

By Dubawi and out of Classic-placed Melikah, he should find this extended one-three-mile-furlong trip to his liking.

ALWAYSANDF­OREVER is sure to have plenty of supporters as she returns to action in the Route Mobile Maiden Fillies’ Stakes at Brighton.

Luca Cumani’s charge has had just one run to date, but the merit of her half-length second behind Coronet is clear to see given that one has gone on to win the Ribblesdal­e and run with credit behind stablemate Enable on more than one occasion.
