Horses for courses: One track specialist for every meeting on Thursday

The obvious starting point is Land Force who has improved with each of his starts to date and was a close third in the Norfolk Stakes at Royal Ascot last time out. He shaped as though a step up in trip would suit him there, however, and at the prices, MINTD is preferred today. Willie McCreery’s filly is improving with each start and is not short of speed, so could improve for the drop back to the minimum trip. Yolo Again struggled in the Queen Mary last month but this looks a much more realistic race for her and she is dangerous to rule out with first-time cheekpieces fitted.
