Royal Elysian can delight Yarmouth backers

Royal Elysian can build on her initial outing this year with victory in the QuinnBet Fillies' Handicap at Yarmouth on Tuesday.

James Ferguson's charge came up against some tough juvenile opposition in four spins last year, most notably subsequent Group Two winner Star Of Mystery, but she did manage to get off the mark on the Newcastle all-weather in September.

A half-length victor dropped back to 1200m, four of the fillies that finished in behind have come out and won since, giving the form a pleasing look.

Royal Elysian kicked off her three-year-old campaign on a mark of 79 at Southwell earlier this month, coming home third behind Bellarchi, who has since gone on to be narrowly denied at Beverley.

Eased 1lb by the handicapper, Royal Elysian could shape better for the outing.

Mobashr should go well despite the burden of top-weight in the QuinnBet Daily Free Bet Handicap.

Rated 90 in his pomp when trained by Marco Botti, he has slid down the rankings a bit and scored off a perch of 74 last summer for Mick Appleby.

Now on a mark of 78 after eight luckless runs, Mobashr can make the most of a slight dip in company.

Newcomer Running Spirit takes the eye in the Download The QuinnBet App Maiden Fillies' Stakes.

Trained by John and Thady Gosden, the daughter of Invincible Spirit hails from a fine family, with Group One winner Jannah Rose and Group Two scorer Creggs Pipes among her half-siblings.

Tenyatta can go well for James Owen in the Old Ship Brightons Oldest Hotel Handicap at the seaside track.

She made a perfect start for Owen when winning at Wolverhampton last month after changing hands for 8,000 guineas in March, but raised 3lb she could not quite get there when third a week ago.

She was staying on that day and it is interesting Owen has opted to jump to 2000m from 1400m.

It is day one of the Punchestown Festival and Slade Steel is backed to follow up his Cheltenham success in the KPMG Champion Novice Hurdle.

Henry de Bromhead's charge proved too strong for the reopposing Mystical Power in the Supreme Novices' Hurdle at Prestbury Park and with the runner-up having since gone to Aintree and won, Slade Steel's extra freshness could prove key as he looks to confirm the placings.
