A welcome addition to racing on the Westwood, this inaugural contest can go to the William Haggas-trained CANDLEFORD. Although well beaten in the Hardwicke on his seasonal return last month, he is already a dual winner at this level and should prove too strong for the likes of Karmology, who merits respect in receipt of the mares' allowance. Official ratings suggest Teumessias Fox can be involved, for all that he needs to bounce back from a below-par effort in the Duke Of Edinburgh. |
The two key protogonists on paper, CANDLEFORD and Teumessias Fox, both have questions to answer after their respective Royal Ascot appearences but both can be excused somewhat. Candleford was making his season debut and never got into the race when last of 12 in the G2 Hardwicke Stakes. Last season he ran just twice, winning a Listed event and was then a good fourth in the 2024 Hardwicke Stakes. A return to anything like that level would suffice. Teumessias Fox is not far behind the selection on official ratings (4lb) and was in top form before struggling in the Duke Of Edinburgh Stakes handicap at Ascot. He can bounce back and give the selection most to do. Karmology needs to take a step forward to challenge the aforementioned but is very dependable and is poised to exploit any shortcomings if the pair don't return to somewhere near their best |
