We've reached the final day of York's three day Dante Meeting, and Betfair Ryan Moore has three good rides on the afternoon...
-
Great debut for Amestris and she has fair claims
-
Potential is there for Bolsena off curent mark
-
Tower Of London an exciting horse for season ahead
-
Extra places on offer for each-way bettors on Friday
This is an extra place race with Betfair offering each-way bettors four places instead of three.
I rode her when she finished second at Newmarket on her debut last month and that was clearly a very encouraging first effort. This is a much hotter race but that initial run entitles her to hold a fair enough claim here. Hopefully, her draw in one proves a positive. The first and third from Newmarket haven't been seen since, but the fourth won well at Chester.
Race day update - Amestris is a non-runner.
She was impressive when winning her maiden for me at Newmarket. This is a big leap up from maiden company, and she is currently only rated 87, but she has a great pedigree, being a half-sister to Triple Time and any number of other very good horses, so the potential is there to springboard off her current rating into this grade.
I always thought a lot of him at three but he is really blossoming now. He shaped very much like a Group 1-winning stayer in waiting when winning at Meydan last time, so I'd hope and expect he will be going close here, even under his 3lb penalty. It's a tough Group 2, and he will need to progress again to win this, but this is an exciting horse for the season.
