I am working at York on Friday for Racing TV and there is a bumper six race card with 95 runners declared. The feature event is the Listed Lyric Stakes over ten furlongs and it will be disappointing if the Top 40 entry (page 20) in AOTF doesn't go close. Conditions ought to be in her favour and she will hopefully take the near £40,000 prize in her stride before stepping up the ladder later i...
Top 40 entry Mistral Star (5/1) gained her first win at Pattern level when running away with the Listed Aphrodite Stakes at Newmarket on Saturday evening. Hughie Morrison's four year old had endured a luckless run when finishing third in the Group 3 Lester Piggott Fillies' Stakes at Haydock last month. The form of that contest had worked out well with the winner Queen of The Pride following up in ...
Apologies for not updating the Diary for a few days, I have been busy preparing for the interviews for the new edition of One Jump Ahead. All being well, I will be contacting trainers next week - news of those will be announced on here in due course.
The Top 40 Prospects in AOTF had a welcome winner on Monday evening when Roi De France went one better having finished runner-up on his reappearance...
Andrew Balding was responsible for 17 winners in June and has already matched that tally for July before the halfway point. The stable sent out 6 winners on Friday across four courses and then produced another three on Saturday. Alsakib recorded his first Pattern race success when taking the Group 3 Silver Cup Stakes at York having run well under top weight in the Copper Horse Handicap at Royal As...
Porta Fortuna claimed the third Group 1 win of her career when strolling clear in the Falmouth Stakes on day two of the July meeting at Newmarket. Donnacha O'Brien's stable star was narrowly beaten in the 1000 Guineas on the Rowley Mile before gaining compensation in the Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot last month. Partnered for the first time by Ryan Moore, the daughter of Caravaggio proved far t...
The July meeting at Newmarket got underway on Thursday and it proved to be an advantage to race handily. Group 1 winning juvenile Ancient Wisdom got his career back on track when winning the Group 3 Bahrain Trophy - trainer Charlie Appleby registering his third win in the last four years in the one mile five contest - by a length and three quarters. Runner-up behind Economics in the Dante Stakes a...
I was working at Haydock Park on Saturday and unfortunately the action was cut short following a number of horses slipping on the homebend in the staying three year old handicap and then Tiffany did likewise in the Lancashire Oaks. The Group 2 event was won in convincing fashion by the progressive Queen of The Pride who became the first filly to complete the Lester Piggott/Pinnacle Stakes and Lanc...
The Unraced Three Year Old section in AOTF features the John and Thady Gosden trained French Master (11/4) and the well bred son of Frankel improved significantly from his debut to win on his second start at Doncaster on Friday. Owned and bred by Normandie Stud, the half-brother to Royal Ascot winner Mohaafeth was green on his racecourse bow at Sandown less than three weeks ago. Stepping up to a m...
Roger Varian won the 1000 Guineas at Newmarket in the spring with Elmalka and Michael Jarvis' former assistant is likely to have left the Curragh on Sunday feeling he could have added to his Classic tally with a bit more luck. The highly regarded Matsuri was an eight lengths winner of a ten furlongs novice stakes at Leicester last month and faced a huge step up in class in the Irish Derby. However...
Bluestocking gained a much deserved win at the highest level at the fourth attempt in the Group 1 Pretty Polly Stakes at the Curragh. Returning to the scene of her agonising defeat in the Irish Oaks last summer, Ralph Beckett's filly stayed on strongly to reel in Emily Upjohn who had set sail for home early in the homestraight. The daughter of Camelot won the Group 2 Middleton Stakes at York on he...
