Sounds like there was some rain overnight, but according to jockey Steve Drowne the track should be very similar to yesterday, it doesn't feel any different but just might have some of the sting out of it. Like yesterday, it's officially described as Good on the round course and Good to Firm on the straight.
15 minutes until the first! Confuchias and Major Cadeaux are both out. |

Tariq
US Ranger Arabian Gleam An upset to start the day, but 6-5 favourite US Ranger was beaten fair and square, no excuses. He had a perfect run, looked like he would cruise to victory but as soon as he hit the front Tariq went by him on his inside and kicked away to win by 3. Impressive. Arabian Gleam ran on nicely for 3rd. Tariq's 3rd win from 6 starts. Time was 1:26.76. |

Nannina
Satwa Queen Sabana Perdida Jimmy Fortune has ridden the first two winners of the day, both very easy wins. This time he was much closer to the pace-making Wasseema, made his move about 2 furlongs out and cantered away to win by the same margin as Tariq in the Jersey. 5th win from 12 starts for Nannina, who ran 3rd behind Ouija Board and Alexander Goldrun in that amazing Nassau Stakes (G1) at Goodwood last season. Time 1:40.97 after a slow pace. |

Dylan Thomas ran a decent race to Notnowcato at the Curragh in May. Notnowcato simply gets no respect, in press or from the punters.

Manduro
Dylan Thomas Notnowcato Great ride by Pasquier, made his move at exactly the right time and held off the challenge of Dylan Thomas in a very exciting finish. Those two finished well clear of Notnowcato in third just ahead of Red Rocks. Manduro's 8th win from 16 starts, and he was second or third in seven of the other 8. Not a bad record. Time: 2:05.91 - a slow pace once again, with Sir Percy ending up in the unfamiliar position of leading. He wasn't comfortable in front at all, and faded badly in the final stages. |

Royal Oath
Flipando Vortex You could say that Jimmy Fortune is having a decent day. This was his 3rd win for the day, and since he had one yesterday too he's already looking good for the leading jockey title for the week. The group who raced in the middle of the track did best here, with the only horse who went on the far side in Supaseus leading throughout most of the race before being run down by the three horses in the centre. Royal Oath kicked away to win by 4 or 5 at the line, ahead of Flipando and 50-1 outsider Vortex. The win was his 3rd from 7 starts. |
