Brighton domination for Global Destination

TIPS: Heavy going plays into hands of Dunlop’s gelding

GLOBAL DESTINATION has shown an aptitude for soft ground and should handle conditions in the William Henry Albert Hedlington Memorial Handicap at Brighton.

It was good to soft when Ed Dunlop’s three-year-old struck over this course in June, just two weeks after he won for the first time at Newbury.

The son of Slade Power coped with heavy ground at Epsom last time when he finished third to Zeyzoun after a 52-day break. He is entitled to come on for that outing and can regain winning ways this afternoon.

SPANTIK stepped up on his Newcastle debut when getting off the mark in pleasing fashion at Lingfield.

Archie Watson’s son of Canford Cliffs can continue his progress in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Novice Median Auction Stakes when he runs on turf for the first time in public.

HOOFLEPUFF can triumph on his second start for Brian Ellison following his move from James Fanshawe’s stable when he goes in the Hotel & Conferencing At Wolverhampton Apprentice Handicap at the Dunstall Park venue.

The Gale Force Ten gelding returns to the scene of his victory for his previous trainer last month, having run respectably at Newcastle for new

connections when fourth four weeks ago. SELECTIONS:
