3.35 Sandown: Constitution River
Produced quite an exceptional performance at Chantilly given the trip he had, for all that the tactics could hardly have worked out better.
Ballydoyle middle-distance three-year-olds seem far ahead of anything else in Britain and Ireland, and he ought to again beat A Boy Named Susie, and the older contenders look beatable.
There also seems to be little chance of a tactical problem, and he is unexposed.
3.44 Naas: Wo Wo Never
Looks as good an each-way bet as I've seen for some time at the 25-1 on offer, at the time of writing.
It is hard to overstate how green he looked at Gowran Park, when shaping with plenty of promise in third behind a good stablemate last time out, and I cannot see how another stablemate (One Number) is 3-1, and he is 25-1, with One Number's Curragh form not really working out, plus he produced a laboured effort at Royal Ascot when last seen.
A son of Wootton Bassett out of a smart mare, this colt could yet prove to be very good.

4.53 Naas: Point Cartwright
As one would expect, there are some obvious dangers here, but 16 runners renders this Ado McGuinness-trained steed hugely appealing each-way.
He has looked a winner waiting to happen on his past two outings, especially at Limerick when last seen, and that form is working out very nicely.
7.18 Bellewstown: Riyami
There is no doubt Riyami is well-treated, if he gets his act together. One is taking a chance at the likely odds, but the owner and trainer can do no wrong at the moment, everything seems in his favour, and Alan O'Sullivan has been booked to ride.
