Roly Poly to give O’Brien big win in Sun Chariot Stakes

Andre Fabre’s Waldgeist is going to take some beating in the Gigaset Cumberland Lodge Stakes at Ascot.

This French raider is simply in a class of his own in this renewal. The three-year-old French raider drops back to Group 3 here and that will serve him well considering the company he’s kept recently.

His fourth place in the Group 1 Irish Derby at the Curragh was mightily impressive, finishing behind Wings Of Eagles, Cracksman, and Capri.

That’s a standard that none of the other horses in this field can meet. He should blitz the competition here.

Blue Point justifiable heavy favourite

The Coral News Team have looked for reasons to oppose Blue Point in the John Guest Bengough Stakes, but we can’t find any.

Charlie Appleby’s flyer has been in excellent form in 2017. The three-year-old beat sprint star Harry Angel to land the Pavilion Stakes over course and distance in May. 

He followed that up with two impressive Group 1 performances at Royal Ascot and Haydock.

Magical Memory and Danzeno will be dangers here but the drop back in class, as well as the absence of Harry Angel, justifies his favouritism.
