Yesterday’s winning NAP made it four successful best bets out of the last five. Take a look at our Lucky 15 selections (four singles, six doubles, four trebles and a four-fold) for the British and Irish meetings on Tuesday, July 26, 2016.
HOME OF THE BRAVE (Goodwood 3.10) has plenty going for him in attempting to land on of the feature races on the first day of Glorious Goodwood, the Group 2 Lennox Stakes. Trained by Hugo Palmer, the four-year-old bids for a hat-trick, having won a Listed event at Leicester in good to soft ground and following up with success in the Group 3 John of Gaunt Stakes at Haydock on good ground. Both races were run over the same 7f trip he goes over today. He has plenty of speed and could prove hard to catch if left alone in front. He was thought good enough to hold a Group 1 Sussex Stakes entry, so connections obviously feel he will take this step up in class in his stride.
FOUR POETS (Yarmouth 4.05) also takes a step up in grade, albeit into a Class 4 handicap. David Simcock’s representative won a 7f Catterick maiden in May and has subsequently been touched off on his last two runs in handicap company, both over a mile here and latterly at Chepstow. The three-year-old goes up 2lb to a mark of 72 and drops back in trip to 7f this afternoon, having not quite got home last time.
BEST OF TIMES (Goodwood 2.00) had caught the eye when finding trouble in running at Chester on his penultimate start and subsequently was made favourite for the Wolferton Handicap at Royal Ascot. However, he raced keenly on the pace, with very little cover and did not have much left at the finish in a 1m2f race won by Sir Isaac Newton. Saeed bin Suroor’s representative takes a drop back a furlong today trip and that will surely help him as has the speed for a stiff mile. He may well over-turn the form with fellow Godolphin runner Second Wave (second at in the Wolferton) and Revolutionist (third) who re-oppose.
RELIGHT MY FIRE (Beverley 5.05) has been running with plenty of credit in defeat recently and deserves to get his head in front sooner rather than later. It could be today. Tim Easterby, whose runners have been in fine form, sticks with very capable 3lb claimer Rachel Richardson, following their decent run when forth over the extended 7f course and distance last week. This is a slightly easier race, too, and the six-year-old races off the same mark of 68.
