THE DOWNLOAD THE BETGOODWIN APP WENTWORTH STAKES (LISTED) 6F

ART POWER (1) looks to hold a distinct class edge over his rivals. Was not disgraced when beaten 6L eighth in the G1 British Champions Sprint Stakes on soft ground at Ascot and receiving a marked drop in grade may return to winning ways. COMMANCHE FALLS (3) handles these conditions and rates an obvious danger on the back of a solid third in the G3 Bengough Stakes at Ascot. The progressive CHIPSTEAD (2) will need to take his form to a new level but cannot be ignored. Veteran sprinter SUMMERGHAND (6) was a good runner-up in the aforementioned G3 at Ascot and could be thereabouts.

THE PHONE BETTING AT GOODWIN RACING 08000 421 321 EBF GILLIES FILLIES’ STAKES (CLASS 1) (Listed Race) (CL 1) 1m 2f 43y

With the ground soft this looks tailor made for MOON DE VEGA (12) who remains fresh since finishing fourth attempting the G3 Hoppings Fillies Stakes at Newcastle in June. The Ralph Beckett daughter of Lope De Vega will relish conditions and maintaining an unexposed profile, rates a strong player. SWEET BELIEVER (5) finished a solid runner-up in the Listed Fortune Stakes at Sandown in September and holds obvious claims with the winner since taking out the G1 Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at Ascot. LIFE OF DREAMS (9) was a good third in the G3 Prix De Psyche tackling this trip at Deauville in August and needs respect representing top connections. There could yet be more to come from DARMOISELLE (7).


15:13

THE BETGOODWIN NOVEMBER HANDICAP STAKES (CLASS 2) (CL 2) 1m 3f 197y

A competitive event where ISRAR (2) impressed easily winning over course and distance last time out. Can follow up. Alan King won this in 2020 with a dual-purpose horse and may provide the biggest danger courtesy of TRITONIC (1). NATHANAEL GREENE (17) finished a decent fourth at York and may go well dropping in trip off the same mark. Classy hurdler METIER (14) is a fascinating contender while CEMHAAN (6) cannot be dismissed.


DOWN ROYAL (IRE)

15:13

The Ladbrokes Champion Chase (Grade 1) 3m

The feature race which highlights multiple Grade One winners including GALVIN (4) who delivered an impressive first-up victory at Punchestown over 3m. Expected to confirm form with top-class efforts at this journey. CONFLATED (2) rates the main danger if replicating an end-of-campaign second among Grade One company at Aintree. Talented chasers KEMBOY (5) and ENVOI ALLEN (3) cannot be dismissed for a placing on best chase efforts. Expect GALVIN to be too strong in the big race from Ireland this weekend.
