We have a busy day’s racing on Wednesday with flat action from Chepstow and Yarmouth live on Sky Sports Racing…
3.45 Yarmouth – 86-rated Waterford Castle bids to break his maiden
A deep renewal of this Great Yarmouth Racecourse Maiden Stakes sees Waterford Castle seek a first success.
George Boughey’s charge filled the runner-up spot on his first three starts for his new trainer and was only beaten six lengths in the King George V Stakes at the Royal meeting. That was a fine effort off a mark of 86 and he rates the one to beat.
Seacole made an encouraging start to her career when second in a Nottingham novice last month and this well-bred type should have more to offer.
Ancestor, a 200,000gns yearling, represents William Haggas and Cieren Fallon and he will be hoping to step forward from his debut fourth behind Wareeth at Salisbury, while Hollywell Stream is another to consider.
3.15 Yarmouth – Exciting duo Raneem and Starlight Lass cross swords
A fascinating edition of the ATI Tank Hire Memorial Fillies’ Novice Stakes where Raneem and Starlight Lass look potentially useful.
The Roger Varian-trained Raneem made a taking debut when outpointing the reopposing Dream Vega at Doncaster and, given the manner of that success, she looks to have a bright future with her trainer enlisting a first-time hood.
The Gosden runner Starlight Lass easily got off the mark at the second time of asking at Newmarket, relishing the step up to a mile, and this relative of Logician could improve with racing and put it up to the Shadwell runner.
Ed Walker’s Dream Vega, a sister to Dreamloper, should get closer on these revised terms.
7.36 Chepstow – Last-time winner Denby’s Dream headlines
Recent winner Denby’s Dream headlines a field of nine for the Each Way Extra At bet365 Handicap at Chepstow.
Charlie Pike’s three-year-old got off the mark at the 11th time of asking at Brighton last month and may prove a tough nut to crack under a penalty with Harry Vigors claiming a handy five-pound.
Joe Tickle’s Galactic Glow is a consistent performer but failed to fire when favourite at Windsor and has a bit to prove under Taylor Fisher.
Fozzy Osbourne makes his handicap debut, while Bobby Dassler has course and distance form and warrants respect.
Best of the rest
Happy Valley – Zac Purton and Richard Kingscote involved.
6.26 Chepstow – Interesting maiden.
2.45 Yarmouth – William Buick rides Holi Scarlett for Stuart Williams.
