Champions Day.

Qipco British Champions Fillies' And Mares' Stakes (Group 2)

Vita Nova finished in front of  Crystal Capella and Banimpire at York. Beat Meeznah at Haydock when losing to Ferdoos a runner in this race. Many other indirect formlines suggest Vita Nova should go close and I feel this stiff track will play to her strengths. Plus I beleive she is getting better.


VITA NOVA 3 pts win + If  1.75 for place on BF another 3 pts. 


Qipco Champion Stakes (British Champions Middle Distance) 

The price on the favourite So You Think looks too short when considering direct form with Snow Fairy in Arc and previously in Ireland.

Cirrus  Des Aigles appears to be a mudlark or a least much better on soft.

Nathanial as an obvious chance but this may be at the bottom end of his race distance requirements.

Dubai Prince not yet done anything to suggest he is a live contender.

So we are left with 3 group 1 winning horses who are priced a little too big and have the right going and distance.

Snow Fairy loves fast going and won some very big prizes along with 2 Oaks.
Midday a multiple winning Group 1 horse and also beaten Snow Fairy x2.
Twice Over again another Group 1 winner who is often overlooked.

Snow Fairy 2 pts win @10.5 Betfair
Midday 2 pts win @8.4 Betfair
Twice Over 0.5 pt win @13.5 Betfair.

Queen Elizabeth II Stakes Sponsored By Qipco (British Champions Mile) (Group 1)

Frankel will be very short in this event. But if the 8 runners go to the start there is e/w value in Excelebration.

This horse is a top level performer and may act better on the ground then Immortal Verse.

If 8 runners going to start.

Excelebration  2 pts e/w.
