Paul Ferguson has two selections for us on Thursday; Snow Sky in the Haydock 2.00 and Joyeuse in the Salisbury 3.45 . Compare odds and bet.
Radiator was an impressive winner for Sir Michael Stoute, Prince Khalid Abdullah and Ryan Moore at Lingfield yesterday, and the trio can strike again this afternoon, with Snow Sky (2:00) in the opener at Haydock.
Third to stable-mate Almuheet on debut at Newmarket last month, the Nayef colt should appreciate today’s extra furlong and looked the type to improve appreciably for his racecourse debut.
Down at Salisbury, the Abdullah silks can be carried to success by Tom Queally aboard Joyeuse (3:45) in the feature Listed Dick Poole Stakes.
An impressive winner on debut, Lady Cecil’s Oasis Dream filly again shaped with promise when third in the Albany Stakes at Royal Ascot, a race that has worked out particularly well since. If returning from her 76-day lay-off in top shape, she ought to take a bit of beating.
