Daily Steed Picks: Expert Racing Tips from the Five Meetings on August 20 (Wednesday)
In the upcoming horse racing events, several intriguing contests are set to unfold at Kempton, York, Carlisle, Worcester, and Sligo. Here's a look at the key horses and races to watch.
Kempton (7.20)
Resurgent Rogue Encore could pose a significant threat to the favourite Run With It, who scored at Wolverhampton and is expected to defy a 6lb penalty. In-form duo Savvy Kingdom and Sheriff's Court are also on the shortlist, while Niminy Piminy, Zoffandia, and Notimeforchitchat, all C&D winners, could make their presence felt.
York (4.45)
Luna A Inbhir Nis, a prolific and speedy horse, is expected to win its seventh race of the season. Mademoiselle, despite a disappointing Epsom performance, is better than her recent form and could pose a threat. Lady Roxby, due to the fast pace of the race, also has claims.
Carlisle (4.55)
Tootsie, after a difficult run in its last race, is expected to bounce back and win. Miss Cast and Bold Rhyme are other contenders, while Believe In Lies, a handicap debutante, could make an impact. Operation Gimcrack, resurgent at Doncaster, is another horse to watch.
Worcester (8.00)
Orange Diamond, after a winning stable debut, could still be well handicapped. Pacific, last month's C&D winner, is expected to run well again. Kopa Kilana, despite an odds-on defeat in a tactical race on its stable debut, could come good soon.
Sligo (6.08)
Sophia Rose, disappointing last time at this trip, is a player on her earlier Downpatrick second. Cocovic, who proved his stamina at Killarney, is a solid proposition. The jockey riding Cocovic, Ryan Kavanagh, is also the favourite for the race. Bold Rhyme, showing mild promise in bumpers, is next best.
