HARRY’S DANCER (Newbury, nb, 3.50) may have disappointed at Royal Ascot, but she remains a filly of potential and appeals as a good value bet to land the Weatherbys Super Sprint.
John Quinn’s daughter of Kodiac was found to be in season after finishing eighth in the Group 2 Queen Mary Stakes so that run can be excused and, at her morning odds, she rates of real interest to bounce back to land Saturday’s feature.
Potential: Harry’s Dancer may have disappointed at Royal Ascot but she can bounce back at Newbury
The selection impressed on her racecourse debut at Thirsk, scorching to a five-length success and it’s worth considering she is 15lb better off with Queen Mary runner-up Tiggy Wiggy for six lengths on their running from Ascot and Richard Hannon’s filly is a third of the price.
That is not to say the admirable Tiggy Wiggy should be disrespected today as she has answered every challenge with great tenacity this term and should again be on the scene for a stable with a good record in this event.
Taghrooda is an absentee from today’s Darley Irish Oaks but owner Hamdan Al Maktoum looks to have an able deputy in TARFASHA (Curragh, 5.45).
The Teofilo filly hasn’t been seen since chasing home Taghrooda in the English Oaks (Volume third, Marvellous sixth and Palace seventh) where she stayed on gamely to finish within four lengths of the impressive winner.
Today’s stiffer and more conventional track could be more to her liking and trainer Dermot Weld has saddled nine winners in the past fortnight so could barely be in better form. Today’s best bet may be ENCHANTED GARDEN (Market Rasen, nap, 2.20) who defends an unbeaten course record in the Betfred Handicap Hurdle.
The selection has been kept fit on the level and ran a blinder at Musselburgh in a staying handicap last month so shouldn’t lack for sharpness.
