WINNING NAP CELEBRATION: Daqman left it late to get ahead of the game yesterday: so did jockey Colin Keane, who managed to squeeze Jonquil over the line by a neck at Goodwood and land the nap in the Celebration Mile. That was the fourth Daqman big-race winner in three days.

SUN SHINE IN THE MORNY
YORKSHIRE pudding! Deauville’s Prix Morny yesterday was a tasty dessert at £165k to the winner after four days of thrills at York last week.
What was the result in a clash of colts sent to France by American ace sprint trainer, Wesley Ward (Outfielder) and the champion of England and Ireland, Aidan O’Brien (Gstaad)?
Answer: the winner was the only filly in the field, based in Yorkshire with Karl Burke, as his two-year-olds strike at 31%.
There was no fluke in a fast-run race as his unbeaten Venetian Sun burnt off the renewed challenge of Coventry winner Gstaad, who led until 100 yards out.
COMPETIZIONE HAS ZIP
⭕ 2.45 Epsom: Three Epsom CD winners clash in this handicap. We used to say this was an ‘oddity’ trip for horses needing an ‘in between’ distance but 7f races have increased right up to Group level.
Crimson Spirit completed a 7f hat-trick when winning at Epsom in July but is a stone higher than at the start of that sequence.
Partisan Hero scored here narrowly at the Derby meeting but, after a sequence of form, seems to have lost the thread.
Aurora Majesty, the third CD winner, is from the younger generation; July winner here but held, third, in early August at Goodwood on soft ground.
Competizione, an eased-down winner at Windsor, was raised only 2lb and may win it for the three-year-olds. BETDAQ 4.0 taken.
GO GREY DERBY DOUBLE
⭕ 3.20 Epsom (Amateurs’ Derby): Winner of the Ladies Derby here and bidding for a hat-trick after following up at Newbury, Gordon Grey faces the Irish challenge of Beauld As Brass.
Beauld was 50-1 when trailing in 60 lengths behind in a class-2 handicap at Epsom at the Derby meeting but then won at Haydock upped in trip and dropped to class-4 company like today’s.
Both Gordon Grey ( Betdaq Betting Exchange 3.9 taken) and Beauld As Brass (value at 9.7) wear first-time tongue-ties.
MARKET LOVES AMORIM
⭕ 3.15 Ripon (Champion 2yo Trophy): Team Crisford have won this four times in seven years, and Al Shaham, their Blue Point colt, goes for a Ripon hat-trick after beating three other winners in a four-horse field for the Hornblower.
One of them was trained by Karl Burke, who won the Morny and today saddles Lam Yai, a friendless 18.0 on BETDAQ this morning.
Lam Yai has won only on the soft and an easy surface figures prominently in the progeny statistics of her dam. Rain is forecast in buckets but not until tomorrow.
Otherwise, punters would be tempted to take another of his fillies against a colt, as the favourite became uneasy in the market this morning.
The money was for Amorim, bumped when third at Newbury to stars of big-time stables, Wise Approach (Morny third) and Rock On Thunder (Gimcrack second).
Amorim is Portuguese for ‘Love’, as in Ruben Amorim, the manager of Manchester United. Can Amorim strike at Ripon today at around 7-2? The market may have more information later on.
DANNY’S CAPITAL RIDE
⭕ 3.50 Ripon Rowels: David O’Meara, who trains in one of god’s little acres (Helmsley), is back to form with 10 strikes in 12 days’ racing in the last two weeks.
Winner of this race three times in nine years, he has booked Danny Tudhope to follow up his three winning rides at York.
Capital Guarantee, his only mount of the afternoon, was a CD winner nine days ago when he bested last year’s Ripon Rowels runner-up, Barley, one of three Tim Easterby runners in the eight-horse field today.
Silent Age has made all on AW and this drop in trip suggests he will try to do the same here on grass.
