WAGYU CAN BEEF UP BEVERLEY PROFITS

Warrendale Wagyu looks well up to defying a penalty in the Go Racing In Yorkshire Future Stars Apprentice Handicap at Beverley.

Trained by John and Sean Quinn, the three-year-old showed precious little in three outings last term but that always looked likely to change this season.

Gelded and making his handicap debut off a low mark of 60 at Doncaster, he cruised through the race before winning with the minimum of fuss.

He is out again before the handicapper can react with anything but a 6lb penalty and as the most unexposed runner in the field, it is hard to look elsewhere.

Gemma Tutty has really made a name for herself this season and that will happen when you win at such tracks as Sandown, Ascot and Epsom with your first ever runners.

She has been around Europe picking up tips from some of the biggest yards and since taking over the licence from her mother Karen, has taken the stable to new heights, headlined by winning on Derby day with Blue Storm.

Nick Bradley has been a big supporter after spotting her potential early and the two team up with Tower Of Africa in the Here Come The Girls EBF Restricted Maiden Fillies’ Stakes.

A very fine second on debut at Carlisle to a filly who ran in the Queen Mary last week, this daughter of Sands Of Mali looked well capable of winning a similar contest.

Flaming Stone is expected to come on for her reasonable Newmarket debut when turning out in the IRE Incentive, Pays To Buy Irish EBF Fillies’ Novice Stakes at Newbury.

Although soundly beaten by Mountain Breeze in the end, she did not enjoy a smooth passage when just starting to make some headway two furlongs out, so it would be no surprise to see her step up on that effort.

Andrew Balding’s juveniles often improve on their second outing and this Kingman filly is a half-sister to four winners, including Group-class scorer Angel Power.

David Menuisier’s Entrancement was beaten a nose last time out at Goodwood and can go one better in the Pump Technology Handicap.

Unfortunately, a 3lb rise for being beaten is hard to take but on what was her first run at a mile and a half, she clearly got the trip.

At Brighton, Felicity sports the Wathnan Racing colours in the Download Our Official Racecourse App Raceday Ready Maiden Stakes.

Trained by William Haggas, she finished fourth of five on debut but was only beaten half a length when third at Bath.

Ramensky is suited by the conditions of the Chris Matthews And His Amigos Novices’ Hurdle at Newton Abbot.

A 10-length winner at Hereford, he looks a hurdling natural.
