Having finished runner-up to Blue Point in 2018 and 2019, Battaash made it third time lucky in the Gr1 King’s Stand Stakes, the five-furlong highlight…
TODAY’S HIGHLIGHTED RUNNER
Dirty Rascal
“Dirty Tascal has improved a lot from his first run and is ready to rock and roll. The draw is not ideal and he will need luck in running to get a good position but If he gets a clear run he should be right there on the line.”
Tom WardRECENT LAMBOURN WINNERS
Bowland Park
Daniel KüblerWas green on debut in a race that featured a few with big reputations - three ran in the Coventry - should take a step forward in what shouldn’t be as deep a race.
The Blue Bower
Jonathan PortmanThe Blue Bower won nicely last time out over a furlong further. She seems in good form still and no real reason why the drop back in trip will be too much of a negative. This is for sure a stronger race than we found for her last time and of course she now has more weight but she still worth siding with.
Matthew Flinders
Ed WalkerMatthew Flinders has been in great form since his debut run and I think he would have come on for that outing and we will see him take another step forward today hopefully. He is a horse with an exciting season ahead of him.
