FIFTY SENSE

Unbeaten Cox ace to dish up a shock in Silver Bowl

WHOPUTFIFTYINYOU gets the vote to defend his unbeaten record with victory in the Cazoo Silver Bowl Handicap (2.35) at Haydock.

The Clive Cox-trained son of Twilight Son made the perfect start to his career with a win over six furlongs here in September, before going in again over the same trip at Kempton the following month.

My selection made his return in a seven-furlong handicap at Newbury last month, and proved ahead of his British Horseracing Authority handicap mark of 83 with a three-quarterlength call from Private Signal.

The assessor has stepped in with a 5lb rise in the weights, but Whoputfiftyinyou – the excellent David Probert is on board for the first time – has plenty more to offer as he tackles a mile for the first time.

Probert is ripe for an ITV4 double, initiated by VALLEY FORGE in the Cazoo Hell Nook Handicap (2.00).

Andrew Balding saddled the gelded son of Danzili to capture the Melrose Handicap over a mile and three-quarters last August, and Valley Forge was keeping on over the same trip on Newmarket’s 1,000 Guineas undercard on his return. With that in mind, two miles here should be right up his street.

His ‘previous’ at this level points to the chance of GO BEARS GO in the Group 2 Cazoo Sandy Lane Stakes (3.10).

Having gone under by a head to Perfect Power in the Group 2 Norfolk Stakes at Royal Ascot last June, Kodi Bear’s son gave David Loughnane the biggest success of his career in the

same-grade Railway Stakes at the Curragh nine days later.

Rossa Ryan’s mount hit the ground running on his return in Ascot’s Group 3 Commonwealth Cup Trial 24 days ago and looks a worthy favourite for this prize.

Top weight COLINTON hasn’t reached the bottom of the barrel and appeals in the opening Cazoo Florida Handicap (1.25).

The Curragh stages the

Tattersalls Irish 2,000 Guineas (3.20), where it will be a shock if NATIVE TRAIL fails to justify building-society odds.

Although he suffered his first defeat when beaten by stablemate Coroebus in the 2,000 Guineas at Newmarket, the Charlie Appleby colt enjoys a class edge over his eight rivals.

At Goodwood, STORMY ANTARCTIC has the perfect conditions to repeat his triumph of last year in the Listed William Hill Festival Stakes (2.15).

Although he’s now nine years old, Ed Walker’s popular veteran can still mix it with the youngsters – especially when there’s plenty of give underfoot.

Earlier on the Goodwood card, GISBURN is capable of giving his rivals weight and a beating as he makes his return in the William Hill Harroways Handicap (1.45).

There was enough in her debut for Kingsclere at Goodwood last month to make Valley Forge’s stablemate SILENCE PLEASE of interest in the Group 3 William Hill Bronte Cup Fillies’ Stakes (3.30) at York.

The preceding William Hill Handicap (2.55) looks trappy, but ZARGUN can get involved if taking a step forward from a pleasing run here nine days ago.

IT HAS TO BE WHO Whoputfiftyinyou (right) can make it four out of four in Haydock’s Silver Bowl HAPPY TRAIL Native Trail’s class is key in Ireland’s 2,000
