Jim Crowley: “He is a serious horse, and I haven’t sat on one quite like him”

I am obviously very excited about riding Baaeed again in the Lockinge Stake. We really don’t know how high the ceiling is with this horse yet.

There is no such thing as a weak Group One. He is taking on a Guineas winner and Sussex Stakes winner, who are both match fit. However, I would be very disappointed if he got beat. He is a serious horse, and I haven’t sat on one quite like him.

4.30 Newbury – Mukaddamah

She ran a big race at Ascot last month. Her pedigree suggests this step up in trip will suit her. She obviously has the John and Thady Gosden runner, Nashwa, to contend with. I really like my filly, and I think there is a lot more to come from her.

5.04 Newbury – Muraad

He has lost his way a little bit so I am hoping he can bounce back to his best this season. This will be his first outing since June. He is likely to need the run, but he is a smashing horse, and I am sure there are some wins still left in him.

2.15 Longchamp – Heat Of The Moment

She is a filly I like. Jane Capple-Hyam would not be running her in this race if she did not feel she was capable. It looked like she shaped as though she needed the extra furlong in the Fred Darling at Newbury last time out. Hopefully we are in for a good run with her.

4.37 Longchamp – Kennella

I’ve picked up a nice spare ride for a French trainer in this fillies and mares race. She has some really good form, most notably her third place finish in the French 1,000 Guineas last year, just a neck behind Mother Earth.
