Race Tip

Dropping in class NOVAKAI (6) can return to winning ways. The Karl Burke trained filly put her head back in front tackling the Listed Aphrodite Stakes on the July course and did little wrong when seventh in the G1 Yorkshire Oaks tackling this trip last month. RUNNING LION (7) bounced back from her disappointment in the G1 Prix de Diane to finish runner-up among Listed company at Salisbury. This Gosden-trained filly created a big impression winning the Listed Pretty Polly Stakes over 1 ¼m here earlier in the season and remains a fascinating contender revisiting this venue. SWEET MEMORIES (10) took the step up to Listed level in her stride scoring the track and trip Chalice Stakes and cannot be dismissed. Similarly progressive TIME LOCK (2) also needs including.
