NAP of the Day on Saturday

Espoir De Romay was just in need of the run when third at Carlisle on his return but with that under his belt, he is going to be hard to beat. He was second to Gold Cup candidate Royale Pagaille at Haydock in 2020, beaten seven lengths giving him 5lb. In the Grade 1 Mildmay Novices’ at Aintree he was desperately unlucky. With the race at his mercy he departed two from home in a race won by Chantry House. He should demolish this lot if he is anywhere near his best.
