ITV Racing: Harry Angel to cement reputation in Sprint Cup

Plenty of Swagger in Superior Mile

There’s a fantastic day’s racing on Saturday across the UK with nine live races on ITV from Haydock, Ascot, and Kempton.

The Sprint Cup at Haydock is the feature race of the day, with a big duel expected between July Cup winner, Harry Angel and Brando.

There’s also two Group Threes to look forward to, the September Stakes at Kempton and the Superior Mile Stakes at Haydock.

As ever, the Coral News team are on hand to give you some insightful pointers.

All eyes will turn to Haydock at 2:25 for the big race of the day, the Group One Sprint Cup Stakes.

Harry Angel runs here for the first time since his incredible July Cup Stakes win over the much-vaunted, Caravaggio.

This 3-year-old is one of the current gems of the Godolphin stable here in the UK and connections feel there’s much more to come.

His nearest challenger looks to be Brando, the five-year-old who finished third in that July Cup renewal.

Kevin Ryan’s Pivotal colt won the Group One LARC Prix Maurice de Gheest last month and should compete well.

Rain is forecast so expect soft ground. And that could pose a threat to this tip, but Harry Angel is Coral’s Bet of the Day.

This September Stakes renewal at Kempton looks an intriguingly open affair.
