SATURDAY
4.20 Goodwood: Corinth (E/W)
Racecard: British Stallion Studs EBF Maiden Stakes
Best odds: 8-1.
Isaac Newton only narrowly failed to reel in a stablemate with race experience on his debut at the Curragh in mid-July.
It’s fair to say he exceeded the expectations of connections as, on jockey bookings (he was ridden by 5lb apprentice Jack Cleary), he was the least fancied of their three runners.
He’s sure to be well-fancied for this and the heavy rain the track received on Thursday should mean his stamina laden pedigree can be well utilised; 11/10 is a fair reflection of his chance, but betting short prices in maidens is not my preferred angle – particularly at Goodwood.
At a bigger price, I’d prefer to back CORINTH each-way. He finished fourth on his debut behind Pacifica Pier and the luckless Publish, who has since won impressively on his next start.
Corinth travelled well in a prominent position for much of that contest and looked a colt with plenty of natural speed. He showed visible signs of greenness when hanging to his right when coming under pressure, yet still only weakened out of contention inside the last half-furlong.
With the ground riding on the slow side, it’s a near certainty they’ll come towards the stands rail, which should reduce the likelihood of him hanging to his right, he might also just have a bit more tactical pace than Isaac Newton and an easier track than Sandown will suit well.
Gosden-trained juveniles often show significant progress on their second start and, if such improvement is forthcoming, he might well prove capable of shaking up the favourite.
