Kid can deliver knockout blow in Select Stakes

Ballybee Brewery drawn to attack

In the Sprint Trophy (20:16), T5 Ballybee Brewery can take advantage of what looks a good draw to get back to winning ways.

The son of Cashen Pedro has won two of his five starts at the venue, and one of those has come from the orange jacket.

Although he has suffered some costly defeats of late, Ballybee Brewery is a tough nut to peg back when timing it right at the lids and with Traps 1, 2 and 3 all wanting the rail there is a distinct possibility of crowding on the inside which would give him every chance of leading at the bend.

Bullet worth a shot in Select Stayers

In the Select Stayers Stakes (20:51), T2 Billys Bullet looks value to lower the colours of red-hot favourite Roxholme Magic.

The Mark Wallis trained son of Ace Hi Rumble has been a terrific servant and overcame serious injury to win the final of this year’s Coral Regency at Hove back in May.

He has held his form well since then, and moved well in a recent trial over course and distance when clocking an 18.60 sectional.

Billys Bullet has every chance of leading up judged on that effort, and with Roxholme Magic dropping back markedly in trip can cut loose and open up a big enough lead to fend off that rival’s power-packed finish.
