Great St Wilfrid Handicap, Ripon 6f
ORANGE TOUCH is worth a bet in the lm4f Listed Glorious
Stakes at Goodwood on Friday.
Arnarjda Perrrett’s five-year-old put up his best
performance over the undulating Sussex course last August
when running away with the lm6f March Stakes.
The 2f shorter will not bother him and he acts on fast and
slow ground. Perrett can double up with Elusive Warrior in
the 7f nursery
The American-bred colt was finishing very stoutly when third
to Advanced in a 6f maiden at Windsor a fortnight ago and he
will be well suited by the extra furlong to cover this time.
The Windsor form received a boost when the fifth, Robustian,
won a Doncaster maiden last week, John Dunlop’s highly
regarded chestnut filly Teeba, who found Echelon too good
for her in a Listed race at Newbury last Friday, can regain
the winning thread in the 7f Oak Tree Stakes.
Stablemate Mukafeh should go well in the following totesport
Mile. The handsome four-year-old was an excellent third
under a welter burden to Another Bottle in a competitive
handicap at Newbury last time. The Arundel trainer can also
be on the mark at Newmarket with Kodiac going in the 6f
handicap.
He bolted home at Newbury last week in first-time blinkers
and a 6lb penalty is unlikely to be enough to stop him
following up. Dunlop has entered Coup d’Etat for the 7f and
lm2f handicaps at Goodwood on Thursday.
The three-year-old was beaten a head in a mile handicap at
Newmarket last time after his pilot, Richard Quinn, stopped
riding in the shadow of the post.
