Our Jamie Lynch Analyst Jamie Lynch is looking forward to Southwell’s Prime Minister’s event, live on Saturday at Sky Sports Racing,
Winter derby Betuk at 3.15pm in Southwell on Saturday, live on Sky Sports RacingIt is not exactly the highlight as it used to be and if nothing else, from the end of one game he went more to the start of the other.
Although this renovation is beautifully occupied by the middle country, and the fact that four of the seven runners are rated 107 or more justifies Group 3 status. There is more than only ability, there is an agenda to consider, which is rather blurred by water, but it is an intriguing puzzle. Let’s look at the competitors.
1. Claymore (draw 4)
Jockey: Jonny Peate | Coach: Jane Chapple-Hyam
This horse was the winner of the Royal Ascota 2022 – a height that never scalled again in 32 months and 15 rides, including when the fourth in this race last year. The handicapper here gives him the opportunity, with a Sub-100 assessment for the first time in a long time, but this is not a handicap, and it is difficult to see him reduced five and three quarters behind a stable rival prince on a stable prince at trial and trial. There are more severe blows than this time he went out to play.
2. A pleasant man (3)
Hollie Doyle | Martin Dunne
A pleasant man was around the block, from the royal lodge as a two -year -old when he with Roger Charlton to Adonis Hurtle for Paul Nicholls. Although he has had a new lease of life in Southwell lately, it was a handicapper that remains in the 80s, the world far from the test he is facing here. Also, he moved the barn again from his victory last month.
3. The royal champion (7)
Clifford Lee | Karl Burke
Karl Burke’s charge was more hit than most who draw attention to all the time in Britain, after challenging three groups 1 in his time, beaten only by the people of Pride in the Canadian International Last October, before the magic in Australia. He returned with a bang in Quebec in Lingfield, on his debut for Karl Burke, during a short work of a synthetic of the scary Tyrrhenian Sea, who then won the tandridge roles.
Traveling and paths make more durability test than Royal Champion ever faced, but also its speed of leakage (38.5 mph) and permanent step length (25.2 feet) at the end of Lingfield shows that he has left a lot, and worth it was to remember that his dam had won the Lancashire Oaks. With its ability and adaptability, there is a case to say that the royal champion should be closer and money for this task.
4. Prince champagne (1)
William Buick | Jane Chapple-Hyam
This runner is a striking case of why horses sometimes have divided grades. The official 10 LB is better on everything, but the gap is even bigger if nothing. This horse is still a virgin on the lawn (after five rides), while only one horse has ever won it in six starts on the synthetic.
Andrew Balding stated at the turn of the year that Eydon will have been aiming for the winter derby since then, but not declared, which is the reason that it was probably that the champagne Prince sent him not once, and twice, even easier, the second time, the second time, in an experiment of course and distance. It is effective and effective, but they are a great chance that it will pass from the enhanced horse power of one or two of these rivals.
5. Military Academy (5)
Rab Havlin | John and Thady Gosden
Royal Champion has a group 1 in the rearview mirror, but a military academy could still have them in front of you. He showed the strength and promise from his first campaign, which lasted only 73 days, surpassed the fully formed Burdett Road in his first race on the list, but recovering to win the Kempton style from teammate Royal Champion Aimeric.
They were both more than a mile, which means that he marked a box that the royal champion was not. Southwell endurance is often the final answer, but Gosens emphasized that the winter derby is a “springboard” for the military academy to the primary target in Bahrein, in the same way that was for Lord North in front of Dubai’s lawn, although he was still conquered 2023, until you thought the cheeks would be distributed without intent for Southwell.
6. Persica (2)
Sean Levey | Richard Hannon
He went to 50-1, but the fact that he traded with the lowest 9-4 in running for the role champion tells you that he had traveled even in that sublime company. This was on the back of the beating of Endfjaar and Eydon in the aforementioned Donside Cup in Ayr, where he again portrayed the skills of the ideal horse for all the weather – his only two goes so far to synthetic, created the first and third (in a remarkable speech).
It may be that one or both four -month absence and 11 Furlong travels it at the end, trying more than a mile and a quarter only once before, when the middle field in King George V in Royal Ascot. However, he is the guy who will re -raise his game as a four -year -old, and he is only 3 pounds behind the royal champion at official ratings, plus gets 1 LB weight for age.
7. Alanya (6)
David Egan | Natalia Lupina
This horse has been the subject of an interesting stable switch from last year, because the guy that Natalia Lupina will go well with, but it will not be a direct transformation needed for this company, from her depth here while she was proud of the role at the last beginning of 2024 .
Jamie Lynch
This looks simple the case of supporting the best horse, Royal championWho could be the odds, not the prospect of going to the trial and proved his durability, the only questionnaire against him, though he may not even ask him at all, watching his information about Lingfield’s final race. Persica is a prediction of forecast predictions, through the prepared military academy.
