Charlie Fellowes looking towards Dewhurst, after ground dashed Marbaan hopes

Marbaan finished last in the National Stakes in Ireland. His trainer and big-race pilot are looking for a suitable venue for the next race. Fellowes suggests the Dewhurst Stake as the best option. The Prix Jean-Luc Lagardere is unlikely to be suitable for Marbaans. He is a Group Two winner and carries a penalty everywhere else. It is also unlikely that the Lagarve will be run on soft ground. Mar Baan is the son of Oasis Dream. They are also considering the Vintage Stages. Mr Fellowe is convinced that it was the ground that made the colt perform poorly.

Charlie Fellowes is looking towards Dewhurst after ground dashed Marbaan hopes. Recommended bets are advised to over-18s. National Gambling Helpline is on 0808 8020 133.

'The ground is not going to be ideal for City Of Troy'

The appeal of the Dewhurst persists even though it has a strong tendency to be little more than a coronation these days. Some people love to see a champion against any backdrop. That is hardly unique to racing. There is another element which holds the interest of those who like competition and betting puzzles. Because these are two-year-olds, we do…

Bounced back from odds-on defeat at Newmarket to spring a 16/1 surprise in the Gimcrack at York. That…

Can the class-dropping Chindit get back to winning ways?

Before the rain arrived this race revolved around just one horse and that was Chindit. He has recorded two of his three highest Racing Post Ratings at Newbury, finishing third in last year's Lockinge and second this season. A reproduction of either run would be good enough. However, the rain has changed the complexion because Chindit was beaten…

Disappointed favourite-backers in this race two years ago but he's won four of his 11 starts since then including a couple of Group 2s over this seven-furlong trip. Missed Goodwood on account of the soft ground and might not fare much better on that score here. Otherwise, it wouldn't be a shock to see him improve on his Royal Ascot sixth when not…

It never rains but it pours. My second-best shoes have barely recovered from the second day of Newmarket's July Festival; Super Sprint day at Newbury was thoroughly inclement, a relief that I hadn't paid to wait in the rain for Tom Jones; and although it hardly rained at all during racing at Newmarket last Saturday, ground that had been Good to…
