THERE aren’t many jockeys in better form than Jamie Spencer at the moment and he could enhance his return at Newmarket in today’s Listed EBF Rosemary Stakes (1.50pm).
Spencer takes the ride on CLON COULIS who looks one of the standout candidates on what is quite a trappy card.
She ran a cracker earlier in the second by the Charles Hills-trained Afaak in the super-competitive Royal Hunt Cup at Royal Ascot.
Excuses can be made for her down-the- field finish in the Golden Mile at Goodwood having been given a horrible draw and the seven furlong trip was just too short at York last time out.
In fact, she did well to finish as close to the winner as she did that day and will certainly prefer this return to a mile back against her own sex. She also won’t mind how much rain falls.
It’s been a relatively quiet season for trainer David Barron but his horses are coming back into form and she looks a fair price at 11/1 with market leader Maqsad disappointing on her last two runs.
John Gosden’s KING OF COMEDY boasts a favourite’s chance in the Group Two Shadwell Joel Stakes (3.35pm) and could leave punters laughing all the way to the bank.
He has finished first or second in all of his efforts over seven furlongs or a mile to date and will appreciate coming back in trip having possibly failed to stay in the Juddmonte International last time.
Only the neck of Circus Maximus stopped him from landing Group One glory in the St James’s Palace Stakes at Ascot in June and he should have too much quality for this field.
