We have a busy day’s racing on Tuesday with Flat action from Brighton, Lingfield, Ripon and Wolverhampton, live on Sky Sports Racing…
5.12 Wolverhampton – Jessica seeks first win
Pierre Bonnard’s half-sister Jessica will look for her first win on her third start in the second race at Wolverhampton, the Free Digital Racecard At raceday-ready.com EBF Fillies’ Novice Stakes.
The €200,000 yearling shares the same dam as the Ballydoyle Group One winner, as well as also being a half-sister to the Group Two-placed Crepe Suzette. Of the two Amo Racing runners, it is interesting David Egan is on her as she comes here off the back of a second-placed finish at Newmarket last month which reads well as the winner, Beguiled, is entered in the Fillies’ Mile.
Phalanx Nation represents Archie Watson and is entered in the Redcar Two-Year-Old Trophy in October. This filly arrives here after finishing third on both starts and the form reads very well, but she has been off since May and will need to overcome that break if she is to make it third-time lucky.
Iris Olivia took a good step forward for her first run and looks potentially progressive with Rossa Ryan in the saddle.
2.50 Lingfield – Storm Force takes on three rivals
James Doyle travels to Lingfield to take the ride on Wathnan Racing’s Storm Force who takes on three rivals in the Sky Sports Racing Sky 415 Novice Stakes.
Richard and Peter Fahey send just their third runner in five years to Lingfield as Storm Force arrives off the back of a success at Southwell. The son of Starspangledbanner travelled like a dream in the hands of Doyle and was able to come home as he pleased. Another bold show is expected under the penalty.
Best of the rest is likely to be Gold Star Gazing who is chasing a first win on his fifth start. He has a rating of 77 but could need a bit extra to beat the Fahey horse.
Blazing Gaden has raced seven times over hurdles but was behind Storm Force on his Flat debut last time out, a first attempt over six furlongs. He should know more now.
3.10 Ripon – Lexington Boom and Roman Crystal feature
The third contest on a seven-race card at Ripon sees two previous winners Lexington Boom and Roman Crystal lock horns in the 21 Engineer Regiment Sapper Nursery Handicap.
Lexington Boom drops into nursery company for the first time on his fourth career start after winning well at Beverley last month and has gone up four pounds for that success, but there is scope for plenty more to come.
Last-time-out-winner Roman Crystal has seen the track five times, scoring just the once, but there is some substance to his form, having been behind Gimcrack winner Arapaho Gold on his second start at Thirsk. He led from pillar to post last time out at Ayr, knuckling down to win nicely in the end and another bold bid is expected.
Lady Dublin comes here top-rated, having won two of her last three starts, but after a below-par performance at Newmarket, she will need to resume her progress if she is to have a say here.
Best of the rest
Deauville – Fair eight-race card.
2.10 Ripon – Five-time course winner Cosmos Raj seeks sixth course win.
4.20 Lingfield – Hope Rising chases four-timer.
4.48 Ripon – Catton Lady looks to defy four-pound rise.
4.55 Lingfield – Musical Soldier seeks four-timer.
8.45 Brighton – Serenity Dream attempts to bring up a hat-trick.
8.30 Wolverhampton – Sansanetti looks to follow up.
