Race Tip

REGIONAL (4) was withdrawn from the G1 July Cup last weekend due to soft ground conditions. Forecast is looking good and the Ed Bethell trained G1 Sprint Cup winner is a confident selection to go one better than when runner-up tackling the G1 King Charles III Stakes at Royal Ascot. The impressive Listed Carnarvon Stakes (course and distance) winning ELITE STATUS (7) is considered along with LAKE FOREST (10) who followed home a noted rival in the G1 Commonwealth Cup (6f) last time. Both are expected to be firmly in contention. TWILIGHT CALLS (6) finished sixth behind the main selection at Royal Ascot in a and could be interesting on first outing attempting 6f since May 2021.
