1:45 Newbury Measuring Time, Win. A decent race to open the card. This is a two year-old race so guess who is the trainer to back? Yes, Richard Hannon again. Still no Richard Hughes so the Champion jockey, Ryan Moore deputises. Hannon knows how to not only buy two-year-olds but also how to train them and more importantly place them to great effect. The stable have already notched up 115 winners this season, amazing, and I think this one will add to that tally.
2:15 Newbury, Markab, Win (NAP). He is in the form of his life and Markab, as a late maturer, is still improving. He beat off a decent field in Ireland (Group 3) and ran a cracker in the Kings Stand Stakes, at Royal Ascot, when second to Equiano. That one has since ran second to Starspangledbanner in the July Cup. This is rock solid form, by any standards. So what we have here is a Group 3 race with a horse who was second in a top quality Group 1 last time. He has a rating of 113, which amazingly in not the highest in the field but he looks the best of these by quite some way. Markab is my best bet of the day.
3:20 Newbury, Distant Reward, Win. Its back to the Richard Hannon show for the Weatherbys Super Sprint. Last time our Reckless Reward was second to Approve last time out in the Group 2 Norfolk Stakes. The winner Approve is a very high quality animal so a repeat of that run should be good enough to land the first prize of a little under £100k. Last years winner of the race was Monsieur Chevalier, which was trained by you guessed it, Richard Hannon. The trainer saddles Norfolk Stakes runner-up Reckless Reward, which he believes represents his best chance of success on Saturday, although he has five other bullets to fire. I fancy Reckless Reward with Ryan Moore in the saddle.
3:55 Newbury, Distant Memories, Win. Tom Tate is a very good trainer, based at Tadcaster in a very nice spot. Distant Memories is tough and consistent and always runs a good race. Last time out at York he defied a rating of 104 which has earned him a crack at a listed race. I think he will win this with Jamie Spencer taking the ride. I like the Tom Tate stable and I hope this one wins for a gentleman of the turf.
Lets hope for another good day!
