16:10 Newmarket – Venetian Prince
Herrin Kendrick; Racing Analyst at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Newmarket’s 7f Weatherbys British EBF Maiden Stakes often unveils future Group-level performers, and this year’s edition may follow suit with the eye-catching presence of Venetian Prince. Representing the in-form Andrew Balding yard — which has struck twice in recent renewals — this striking juvenile boasts both pedigree and preparation on his side. By leading first-season sire St Mark’s Basilica and out of Group 1 winner Arabian Queen, his bloodlines are as blue as they come. Not only is he a half-brother to the Group 2 scorer See The Fire, but he also shares a page with Royal Playwright — both of whom won on their racecourse debuts.
Connections have made no secret of the regard in which Venetian Prince is held, with strong reports from fast work in recent weeks pointing to a colt ready to fire first time out. The Balding team arrive in blistering form, racking up 21 winners in the past 14 days, and their two-year-olds have been especially sharp, converting at a 23% strike rate this year. With proven success in this specific maiden and a pedigree stacked with early talent, Venetian Prince looks like a serious player on debut — and just might be the next in a long line of notable names to announce themselves in this historic contest.

15:00 Newmarket – Dancing In Paris
John Pentin; Sports Journalist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Dancing In Paris lines up at Newmarket after knocking firmly on the door in two recent high-quality contests. At Newcastle, in the ultra-competitive Northumberland Plate, he came within inches of landing the prize, just denied by a rival who enjoyed a significant track advantage on the better ground along the stands’ rail. The margin was only a neck, and crucially, he lines up here from the same rating of 89 — despite being due a 4lb rise for that near-miss.
Prior to that, he was a close third at Goodwood, finishing behind French Master, who subsequently took the Copper Horse Stakes at Royal Ascot. What makes that effort more credible is that Dancing In Paris endured traffic problems and had to switch before running on powerfully in the final furlong. On both recent starts, he has shaped like a stayer in excellent form, and it’s clear the handicapper hasn’t caught up with him yet. This 1m6f trip plays to his strengths, and if he can get a clear run, he looks ready to convert consistency into victory. With conditions and tactics aligned, this could finally be his day to take centre stage.
15:45 Ascot – Crepe Suzette
Gram Dodd; Flat Racing Analyst at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Crepe Suzette continues to show signs that a win is close at hand, and Friday’s mile-and-a-half test at Ascot might be the ideal setup. She has looked unlucky on more than one occasion this year, and her latest run at Salisbury was a prime example. Beaten a head by Patagonia Girl, she was clearly ahead a few strides after the post, having taken a while to hit top gear. The winner has franked the form at Chester off a higher mark, while Suzette is only nudged up two pounds.
That looks a generous decision from the handicapper, considering she’s been shaping like a filly who wants further. By Saxon Warrior, there’s stamina in her pedigree, and this step up in trip could unlock that improvement. The Gosdens know how to develop these lightly raced types, and with a pace forecast predicting a strong gallop, this race should play into her late-running style. With Tyler Heard back in the saddle and more to come now she’s proven over middle distances, Crepe Suzette makes plenty of appeal against exposed rivals. She’s on a mark she’s likely to surpass in the very near future — potentially starting here.eason.
