A double dose of all-weather action on Friday as potential Classic contenders head to Newcastle alongside a competitive card at Wolverhampton, live on Sky Sports Racing.
7:39 Newcastle – Roaring Lion colt goes for Qatar Racing
A whole host of big-name owners and trainers head to Gosforth Park for the British EBF Future Stayers Novice Stakes (7:39), with Derby and Guineas entries galore among the two-year-olds.
One of the more intriguing entries is the Roaring Lion colt Gallant Lion for the Michael Bell team on debut, running in the Qatar Racing colours made famous by the superstar who is sadly no longer with us.
Last year’s heat was won by Lusail for Al Shaqab Racing – who send Al Motasim to the race for the Hugo Palmer team, with Ben Curtis in the saddle.
Animate could well go off favourite, having finishing behind subsequent winners Victory Dance and Bresson on debut for Simon and Ed Crisford – he looks the most interesting of those with a run.
