Race Tip

AL QAREEM (1) bids for a Black Type hat-trick. Scored by a neck the Listed Stand Cup at Chester and followed up with a narrow success attempting the G3 Cumberland Lodge Stakes. Proven stayer over a longer distance. Top chance. HAMISH (2) previously placed at G1 level. Received a three month spell since a 4L success in the G3 Glorious Stakes at Goodwood. Enjoys soft ground conditions. WHITE BIRCH (6) returned after a break with a fourth in a Leopardstown G3. Place. SALT BAY (7) was a good second tackling a longer trip at this track. Takes on tougher rivals.
