Sunday's horse racing thread 🧵 Deauville 1.33 Santorini Star 1/1 NEXT BEST Naas 2.30 Maeda Matsu 4/1 (from @PaddockToPocket) Deauville 2.50 Orthodox 2/1 Brighton 3.20 Dreams Galore 7/4 Worcester 3.38 Down To Business 1/1 NAP Naas 4.30 Simmering Seas 9/4 Trainer William Haggas remains in great form so SANTORINI STAR should be hard to oppose here. This filly by Golden Horn was only denied a nose at Glorious Goodwood and another run like that would see her back in the winners enclosure. She is proven in this softer ground and I expect her to justify favouritism. Silver Kiss is feared but she looks plenty short enough and MAEDA MATSU could be value against. Paddock Whispers is keen so I've followed him in on this one. She was sent off a monster price on debut and beat all bar the progressive Livenka. She should know a lot more now and with 7f likely to suit given the way she finished the last day she should run huge. This will be a great race between Señorita Bonita and ORTHODOX and it is the latter I'm keen on. Clive Cox has made it no secret what he thinks of this colt and Rossa Ryan has been excited about riding him again. He is a perfect 2-2 and if he handles this softer ground he could remain unbeaten. The way he won the Norfolk was mightily impressive and he is quite clearly a sprinter going places. Señorita Bonita obviously had her form franked with Libertango winning at York so I expect the pair to battle it out and will be covering a reverse forecast for some insurance. With Billy Loughnane getting the leg up I'm expecting DREAMS GALORE to complete the hat-trick here. This filly by Havana Grey impressed following up at Chepstow last time and looks to have a progressive profile now. She has only had a handful of starts and is 2-2 in handicap company so 7/4 seems very fair and if she continues to drift I will go in again as I can't see how she doesn't go close. A rare flutter over Jumps this afternoon as DOWN TO BUSINESS looks a standout. He shaped with promise on all three starts over hurdles and in these calmer waters here is expected to come out on top now. He has had a wind op and this better ground is likely to help as well. I really don't see too many dangers and that is being reflected in the betting. Fingers crossed it is gamble landed for the Skelton team. I thought SIMMERING SEAS was an eye-catcher at Cork on debut for this yard. She was beaten around two lengths and with this stiffer track likely to play to her strengths if she improves again then she is a danger to all and that is very much being reflected in the market now. One or two dangers but if she builds on that encouraging run the last day she should get the job done under 7lb claimer Terry Casey.
