Hi Reader

This Saturday we target the Sandy Lane Stakes (group 2) rather than the Silver Bowl handicap.

Both races are for three year olds only, however I have a stronger fancy in the Sandy Lane at Haydock.

At last we landed a winner last Saturday with Saddadd winning the London Gold Cup. It has taken much longer than I thought it would! Hopefully, with that monkey off our backs we can crack on and back several more winners over the coming weeks and months.

Blaze to Burn Rivals in Sandy Lane Stakes

A cracking lineup for the Sandy Lane Stakes (Group 2) at Haydock this afternoon.

Ten 3yo's go to post in a race that always points to major players in the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot.

Arizona Blaze is value over a trip that will suit and no ground issues. This horse has highly tried and raced as a juvenile. He ran nine times and managed to place third in the Norfolk Stakes at Royal Ascot. He kept improving and placed third in the Phoenix stakes at the Curragh and second in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile at Del Mar.

This season he returned with a win over six furlongs at Dundalk. He looked a winner in the guineas trial at Leopardstown until not fully seeing out the seven furlongs. Adrain Murray took him to Chantilly where he powered home to win over 5.5f on good to soft ground. David Egan can bounce him out and try and make all with six furlongs his best distance.

Haydock 3.00

1 point each way Arizona Blaze 4/1 Bet365 else 7/2 generally, 3 places.

Best of Luck,

Nicky
