Saturday Racing Tips at Chepstow and Newmarket | Racing Lee

This stable is in flying form, and he can start his chasing career off on a high. He stays for fun having won a heavy ground three-mile hurdle race at Haydock; he went on to run a rallying third in the Pertemps Final at the Cheltenham Festival but, he won over this course and distance in January over hurdles, bolting up by 12 lengths having jumped well.

He’s very much the “chasing type”, and although he’s up against unexposed horses, he looks the type to be ready to go on seasonal/chase debut.

The choice of stable number one William Buick, Shadow Of Light can gain another Group One here at HQ. Only just denied at York in the Group Two Gimcrack, he burst clear of the favourite Whistlejacket to make it three wins from four starts. The runner-up that day hails from a powerful combination in Ryan Moore and Aidan O’Brien, and they run the danger and likely favourite here in The Lion In Winter.

However, it’s hard not to be impressed with the manner of the selection’s victory and he can take another Group One to round off an already strong two-year-old season.

He’s likely to be well-prepped for starting off his season, from a yard to likes to fire the numbers in early. He’s a winner off three pound higher when beating a strong field at Ascot and has run solid races behind decent horses. He was second when last seen to stablemate Sabrina and is ground versatile. Plenty places likely on offer and can go well in an open race.
