July Cup Tips 2019

One of two Group 1 contests held on the July course at Newmarket, the July Cup is a six-furlong sprint that has thrown up many an exciting winner and finish down the years. Won last year by Aidan O’Brien’s U S Navy Flag, he’ll be hoping he can go back to back in the contest, though the British charge in 2019 looks extremely strong. As always with all the premier races in Britain, you can find all our thoughts on the race on site now, including a free selection of who we think will take the contest and runner by runner analysis!

July Cup Runners & Entries

After his dominant victory in the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot, Advertise is the antepost favourite and that is very unsurprising. Dream Of Dreams comes in second into the market, beaten a head by Blue Point in the Diamond Jubilee and that form gives him a huge shout.

Cape Byron has been a rapid improver this year in handicaps and connections have been bullish about how far he could go, with Ten Sovereigns aiming to brush off two disappointing 2019 runs and given Aidan O’Brien back to back successes in the contest.
