Racing Lee's Ebor Festival Saturday Tips
He’s won this race for the last two years and can make it a hat-trick. He suits this track, seven furlongs and Group Two grade well, and is a multiple Group One winner coming back to this race again.
He got going too late behind Audience at Goodwood last time out, but had beat him off levels in this race last year and can turn the tables here.
Dropping back to a Group Three from her Group One efforts can see her go close. She was a neck runner-up to Opera Singer at Goodwood last time out, but prior to that had ran fourth in the Eclipse behind City Of Troy (won Juddmonte since) and Al Riffa (won German Group One by five lengths).
She has contested Group Ones on her last five races, from seven career starts and can continue to progress, in what looks her easiest assignment this season.
Although now an eight-year-old, Sir Busker has the back class to go close in this. He was an eye-catching fourth when staying on the be beaten a length and a half at Glorious Goodwood. He was slow away that day but still powered home well to show he’s still capable of mixing it off this mark.
Two years back he won over course and distance in a Group Two beating a Group One winner in Dubai Honour and he was third to the mighty Baaeed in the Group One Juddmonte no less.
He gets five pound off with the services of the in-form Brandon Wilkie and can go close at a trip and track he likes.
