Race Tip

MGHEERA (4) bids for a hat-trick following victories at Longchamp and most recently in the G2 Temple Stakes at Haydock Park. Three from that race have won subsequently. Can act on those form claims. RUMSTAR (2) improved after running fourteenth in the G1 King Charles III Stakes to win the G3 Sprint Stakes at Sandown Park most recently. Might double up. ARIZONA BLAZE (5) placed a narrow neck second in the G1 Commonwealth Cup last month. Holds winning course and distance form. Could go one better. POWERFUL NATION (6) won the Listed Midsummer Sprint Stakes at Cork last time. Potential.
