Well a good days racing ahead.  The York feature race is the Juddmonte International Stakes Group 1.  It looks like being a cracker, Poet’s Word, Roaring Lion, Saxon Warrior and Latrobe! Picking the one out of them, I do think Without Parole races a bit too keen to win over 10f, but respect trainer John Gosden for having a go, he obviously thinks he will stay the trip.  If I have a bet, it will be Saxon Warrior each way.  He has done little wrong, he probably did not stay in the Derby, then ran a good race over in Ireland, over 12f, then a cracking run in the Eclipse, only just beaten that day when second to Roaring Lion.  The last time I was at York was when Sakhee won the same race by 7 lengths, I had a real good bet on him that day, he was a really good horse for Godolphin.

I do like two horses today at York, problem is they are in the same race !
