Race Tip

The 2024 renewal of the Irish Derby looks to be a match event between Epsom Derby runner-up AMBIENTE FRIENDLY (1) and two-year-old G1 winner LOS ANGELES (5) with the former progressive this season securing a comfortable success in the Listed Lingfield Derby Trial (UK) before a 2.75L defeat in the G1 Epsom Derby (UK) tackling this trip while the latter ended last year with a narrow victory in the 1m2f G1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud (France) and was a solid third tackling the aforementioned G1 Epsom Derby. GROSVENOR SQUARE (3) is open to further improvement representing leading connections. MATSURI (6) caught the eye at Leicester (UK) winning by 8L a 1m2f novice event. Significant rise in grade. Interesting.
