NECK AND NECK FOR 10-1 NAP: Daqman had winners at 5-1 (Kyle Of Lochalsh) and 8-1 (Omni Man) at Glorious Goodwood and was neck and neck for a 10-1 nap in the Lillie Langtry’s final strides yesterday when Danielle finished threeparts of a length runner-up. She’s a Fortune Cookie for the rest of the season.
THE BEST IN EUROPE: Daqman explores the best of French, German, Irish and English racing this afternoon at Deauville, Dusseldorf, Chester and Galway.
GARDEN GROWING – O’BRIEN
⭕ 2.40 Dusseldorf (German Oaks): Low numbers best and Spirited Style best of the low numbers!
Charlie Appleby’s unexposed winner of the Aphrodite (Listed) at Newmarket (good to soft) in July should handle the German Group-3 winners Lady Charlotte, Nyra and Santagada.
But Aidan O‘Brien reports that his Ribblesdale star Garden Of Eden, will get better and better.
MATILDA TEST FOR JANUARY
⭕ 3.40 Deauville (Prix Rothschild) A one-mile fillies’ and mares’ Group 1, which Aidan O’Brien last won with his Newmarket 1,000 Guineas winner, Mother Earth (2021), and Karl Burke with his French Oaks darling, Laurens (2019).
Here’s last year’s Irish 1,000 winner for Karl, the grey Fallen Angel, who has been looking for soft ground.
Exactly has run against the best – Zarigana in the French 1,000 and Cercene at Royal Ascot – but O’Brien stablemate, January, finished in front of Exactly, third to a one-two by Cercene and Zarigana in the Coronation Stakes.
Matilda moved to Zarigana’s trainer, Francis-Henri Graffard after taking the German 2,000 Guineas six lengths (yes, not the 1,000; she beat the colts in the 2,000). Graffard also runs Mandanaba, third in the French 1,000.
Queen Mary winner for America in 2023, Crimson Advocate won a Group 2 for Team Gosden at Royal Ascot in June .Third was Fallen Angel.
10.0 BUT ‘NOBODY’ KNOWS..
⭕ 3.52 Chester (Queensferry Stakes): It’s nine wins in a row shared in this by stalls 2, 3, 4; any age but all well backed.
Can Ain’t Nobody put the one stall in the picture, after six Group races? He drops down to the level of the Windsor Castle Stakes which he won last June. Betdaq Betting Exchange 10.0 this morning.
It’s a similar story with Celandine (2): five Group races after a Listed success at the Newmarket July meeting. But she did win a Lowther.
The consistent Listed winner at Deauville, French-bred Toyotomi (3) joined David O’Meara in July.
Kassaya (4) is expected to overtake them all at around 3-1. The Queen Mary favourite picked up an injury but made an eyecatching return at Sandown after a year off.
CLOSING CUMBERLAND GAP
⭕ 4.30 Galway Joltin (2nd), Lucia Molly (3rd) and Bang Bang (5th), involved in a finish at Leopardstown 17 days back, line up again but the eye-catcher that day was Duke Of Cumberland (9th), who is expected to turn things around and give Joseph O’Brien a third winner at this festival and 15 in as many days racing.
PROBE CAN HIT BULL’S-EYE
⭕ 4.52 Chester Kindest Nation broke well on the inner from gate 3 here last September, she lost her position but fought back to win. However, that was in a class 5.
And the one most likely to upset the market leaders today is Probe, back to the mark of his success here at one of the May meetings. BETDAQ 14.5
