We have another excellent weekend of racing to look forward to, with two Group 1s and a valuable handicap on Saturday. Newmarket‘s Friday card looks excellent in its own right and the feature is the Group 2 Rockfel Stakes. ITV will be televising the first five races and that means we have more outsiders for you. They include a 40/1 shot in the opener, as well as 33/1 and 22/1 selections. Take a look at our free tips page for daily content across British and Irish racing.
Mojave River (40/1, bet365) finished fifth in a warm Group 3 at the Curragh on seasonal debut and that form gives her every chance here. Consistency isn’t her forte and she can throw in some poor performances but that is reflected in the price. She won an average race at Cork on her penultimate start and will appreciate the return to a mile, after failing to stay over an extended 1m1f when last seen.
Chorus (22/1, Betfred) ran well for a long way in the Group 2 Park Hill Stakes at Doncaster earlier this month. She faded late on and will probably be suited by a return to 1m4f on that evidence. A solid fourth in a competitive Group 3 at Cork in August, she can make the frame if reproducing that form here.
Samra Green (33/1, Boylesports) represents the Karl Burke yard and there a few better trainer of juveniles in Britain than him. This daughter of Saxon Warrior made a very good impression when scoring easily on debut at Haydock. The form is a mixed bag but the fourth has won since. Obviously improvement will be needed but this will be just her second start and she’s entitled to find plenty.
