2.50 Goodwood
A dvice: 1 pt win Regal Realm
Whiteley Clinic Prestige Stakes (Fillies' Group 3) (Class
1) (2YO only)
Winner £22,684
Lady Gorgeous: Ran around just a bit when headed out of
things on her racecourse debut and looked a much improved horse when getting
there in plenty of time and over turning and odds – on hotpot at Newbury; Didn’t
live up to that promise when 9th in Lowther last time and others preferred.
Lily’s Angel: Raced exclusively at 5f on first 4 career
starts, going through first three races unbeaten before bumping into useful
pair in hot Beverley event; Only fifth in Albany (unsuited by the soft ground)
and right back to form in Listed event/Super Sprint; Exposed but sure to be
thereabouts based on her good second to Discourse last time out.
My Queenie: Given more than enough ground to make up when
second behind Rakasa at Goodwood but let the form down when beaten next time at
this trip; Doesn’t look liky to win Group races.
Nayarra: und only one too good on all 4 of her starts in
maidens but this far harder so passed despite interesting booking of title
chasing Kieren Fallon.
Questioning: Never in danger when creating huge impression
at Newbury on debut, beating a pair who both won next time out; Step up in
class no trouble and should go well.
Rakasa: Created a good impression when coming from long way
back to land Goodwood maiden (my Queenie third) and will improve for the extra
distance today; Should be respected for in form team.
Regal Realm: Created a promising impression when knuckling
down well to land a Newmarket maiden but nobody could predict how well the form
would have worked out (subsequent Cherry Hinton winner Gamilati in second,
Albany winner in third, several other winners behind); Went down to a progressive
winner on ground with cut in at Ascot and should go well here.
Verdict: Following an excellent effort in defeat at Ascot,
REGAL REALM should have enough to hold off the promising maiden winners Raksa,
Questioning and the solid Lily’s Angel.
