Once again i've been unable to do supporting races but hopefully I can give a winner or two. The whole card is live on ATR and you'd be mad to miss it.
Ballerina Stakes (Grade 1) 7f, dirt, 3yo+ f/m (9.38pm) - First Passage is a late runner who may well find an abundance of speed playing to her strengths, but the focus will be on how INFORMED DECISION (win) performs on fares on dirt ahead of a repeat bid in the Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Sprint, which she won last year on the Pro-Ride.
King's Bishop Stakes (Grade 1) 7f, dirt, 3yo (10.10pm BST) - I'm very interested in Hurricane Ike, who should love the blistering pace that's going to be set. in a 8 runner race, he would be the each/way pick. As things stand, it's a hard choice between D'Funnybone and DISCREETLY MINE will be favoured to turn the tables ( have met twice before, both times at this 7f trip, with the latter coming out on top on both occasions by a cumulative aggregate of nine lengths) after a couple of noteworthy efforts, including a blistering victory over half a furlong shorter earlier this month in Grade 2 company. The fact he handles the track is the clincher over a horse who was beaten was beaten at 1-9 at Calder on his most recent start.
