Race Tip

HAVANA SPRITE (2) can maintain winning form. Dead-heated in the Listed Empress Stakes over 6f at Newmarket then followed up gaining a 0. 5L handicap success over the same course and distance. Leading chance. DUBAI CHAMPION (5) was only narrowly beaten in a 6f Goodwood handicap nineteen days ago. Top chance on that run. THE DANCING PIRATE (14) showed good form in recent starts. Finished 1L second trying 6f at Chester latest. Sent off favourite when 2. 75L seventh behind the second mentioned last time. A definite contender. GOD GIVEN TALENT (4) made a winning debut trying 6f at Newbury before two runs at a higher level. Interesting tried in a handicap for the first time.
