Why you should follow the Gosdens this week

John & Thady Gosden had a brilliant year on the Downs last year, winning five times at the track from just 10 runners saddled, and the team could be set for a stellar week again this year.

In the Coronation Cup, Emily Upjohn is a very warm favourite to see off her four rivals and it would be disappointing if she failed to deliver on Friday. Winner of this race last year, she has a real liking for the track and she was given a nice prep for the contest when a respectable fifth in the Dubai Sheema Classic at Meydan in March.

Moving on to Saturday, where the Gosdens have another big contender in the Group 3 Princess Elizabeth Stakes courtesy of Running Lion. Four times a winner in her career, she failed to land a blow in Group 1 company last year but she chased home Stay Alert in a Group 2 at Newmarket on her return and this could be easier.

Other’s worth a mention are Epictetus who might run in the Group 3 Diomed Stakes on Saturday, while God’s Window is a big outsider for the Betfred Derby but looks right up against it.
