Race Tip

Returning to proper soft ground could bring about an improved performance from BOTANICAL (1), who is taken to make a successful stable debut for George Boughey. He gave the impression there was more to come when second in a highly competitive York (1m2 1/2f) handicap during July and remains lightly raced. The gelding operation might aid chances of MACDUFF (7). This Ralph Beckett trained three-year-old now has his sights lowered after being well-beaten in both the G1 Epsom Derby (1m4f) and G2 King Edward VII Stakes (1m4f). PASSION AND GLORY (4) landed a competitive 1m4f Ascot handicap and cannot be ignored. TERRE DE VEGA (10) is unexposed and also worth noting.
