Saffron Beach can stay unbeaten

SAFFRON BEACH can advertise her Classic claims by making a victorious return to action in the Lanwades Stud Nell Gwyn Stakes at Newmarket.

Jane Chapple-Hyam’s charge impressed in two starts at Headquarters last term, running out a ready four-and-a-half-length victor on her debut in a seven-furlong maiden before making the leap to Group Three company with aplomb in the Oh So Sharp Stakes.

Her current mark of 101 gives Saffron Beach something to find with the likes of Sacred. But the daughter of New Bay looked as though she still had plenty of improvement to come and could have any amount still up her sleeve.

Global Giant arrives in winning form for the bet365 Earl of Sefton Stakes, having landed the Magnolia at Kempton.

Having enjoyed a luckless trip to Riyadh, when he was outclassed by stablemate Mishriff in the Saudi Cup, Global Giant found a switch back to Listed an eminently easier task last month.

He had upwards of 3lb in hand of each of his rivals at the Sunbury venue. But Global Giant still impressed with a six-length stroll, and turning out in this Group Three heat could prove a shrewd move by John and Thady Gosden.
