Follow the Blues

Godolphin is enjoying some really good form with its juveniles and looking at the Newmarket card on Friday, this looks set to continue.

In the 13:50 Maiden race, Fa'iz stands a good chance to finally break his duck after 4 attempts. The son of Dansili has been second in his last 3 races and will only be facing moderate company tomorrow. However, as I mentioned many times before, there are some horse types that always seem to be at the finish but always find one better every time. This might be down to bad luck or just plain lack of fighting spirit. He might not win, but he should definitely be in the first 3 among this lot, so I put a Place recommendation on him.

In the 16:45 Conditions race, I like Zabeel Park, who's coming off a 454-day layoff. Provided that the team in blue has this Medicean filly in a fit shape after this long spell on the sidelines, she should play a major role in this race. I see her finishing in the first 2 and recommend her as an each-way punt.

Each-way: Zabeel Park

Place: Fa'iz.
