Simon Dalton presents his prediction for the horse racing event
Alec Voikhansky got a 28-day ban in the beginning of August. Sean Levey will ride with Ripon and Jamie Spencer will ride Witch Hunter again. Maybe an old friend will help the son of Siyouni get the first win this year.
Despite falling in York, Tiber Flow of William Haggas won the following start in Haydock, leaving Witch Hunter behind. He performed poorly in the last race. However, he has a chance to win this Saturday with some weaker opponents.
A 3-year old Kikkuli won his debut race this season and performed well prior to Deauville, where he was a beaten favourite. A Juddmonte representative had over a month to take some rest without crossing the English Channel, which increases his chances to win.
English Oak looks the best option in this company. This is going to be his second start in a group race. He can win this time. Previously, he only was successful with handicaps but he was perfect at the Buckingham Palace Stakes among many opponents.
