PLAY SMARTER

The betting ought to prove a useful guide in this nursery with the vote in favour of MARINE LAKE without the benefit of market clues. A well-related filly, she ran her best race to date when fourth in a C&D maiden 4 weeks ago and it’s likely she has more to offer. Fomo and Snow Girl are others to consider, whilst it would be interesting to see market support for Glendown back from a break/equipped with cheekpieces.

THE WEATHERBYS BLOODSTOCK PRO PIPALONG STAKES Fast fillies are special racehorses and the Weatherbys Bloodstock Pro Listed Pipalong Stakes run at Pontefract commemorates one of the toughest there has been.

Pipalong, born in January 1996 and bred in Ireland by Yeomanstown Stud, was a daughter of the stallion Pips Pride and out of the Green Desert mare Limpopo, a first foal out of the 1987 Irish champion older miler Grey Goddess (Gods Walk).

Yeomanstown sold her as a yearling at Tattersalls October to a cash buyer for 7,000gns. She was an inspired buy – for the following four racing seasons and through 37 racecourse starts her owners Tom Bennett and Marjorie Easterby, mother of the filly’s trainer Tim, enjoyed a fine time with the well-bought filly.

Pipalong’s racecourse debut in April as a two-year-old gave connections an idea of the talent she possessed – she won by a clear 12 lengths at Ripon.

Her win next time out at York was a closer affair, she took on Bint Allayl and succeeded by a neck; the placings between the two subsequently reversed in the Queen Mary Stakes (G3) at Royal Ascot.

Tim Easterby’s flying bay filly then went on to finish second in the Cherry Hinton Stakes (G2) at Newmarket to Wannabe Grand, picked up a fourth place in the Listed Oh So Sharp Stakes before collecting the Redcar Two-Year-Old Trophy in October.

At three she ran in some top sprints did not win until August – back at Ripon she beat the colts in the Great St Wilfrid Handicap. Subsequent outings in the Group 1 Sprint Cup and the Ayr Gold Cup did not reap rewards and it was not until the last day of the 1999 Turf season in the 6f Listed Wentworth Stakes at Doncaster that she put her head back in front, the filly relishing her favoured soft ground.

As is so often with sprinters Pipalong produced her best as a four-year-old. She won on her seasonal debut before adding a first Group 3 to her CV with victory in the Palace House Stakes (G3) at Newmarket.

The tough campaigner then hit her form of life through July to September–shefinishedthirdbehindAgnesWorldintheJulyCup(G1),filled the same placing in the Nunthorpe Stakes (G1) to Nuclear World before her career-defining victory in the Group 1 Sprint Cup ahead of Sampower Star.

Her four-year-old season concluded with another Group 1 third this time behind Namid in the Prix de l’Abbaye (G1) at the Arc meeting at Longchamp.

At five, she won the Duke of York Stakes (G2) but then did not trouble the judge again until another third placing in the Prix de l’Abbaye (G1).

As a broodmare she produced three winners headed by Walk On Bye (Danehill Dancer), who won the Anglesey Stakes (G3) and finished third in the Phoenix Stakes (G1).

This year’s 19th running of the Listed mile race run in her name features a talented field of nine fillies and mares aged four years and older.

Thunder Beauty (Night Of Thunder), who was bred by Kildaragh Stud and Michael Downey, comes into the race in fine form after a great second placing at Royal Ascot to Saffron Beach in the Duke Of Cambridge Stakes (G2) for owner David Kelly. He is uncle of Jason Kelly, who is assistant and in charge of the bloodstock purchasing plans for trainer David O’Meara.

Thunder Beauty had been offered at the Goffs London Sale before the Royal meeting but did not find a purchaser and so has remained in Kelly’s ownership with the target of adding a group race victory to her resume after picking up that first Group 2 placing in June. She holds an entry in the Group 1 Matron Stakes later this year.

Another bred by Kildaragh Stud is the Tom Ward-trained daughter of Holy Roman Emperor, Roman Mist. She also boasts recent Group-placed form with a third in June’s mile Princess Elizabeth Stakes (G3) at Epsom after winning the Listed Snowdrop Stakes at Kempton.

Rising Star (Fast Company) put in her career best when winning Royal Ascot’s mile Kensington Palace Stakes off a handicap mark of 90 for trainer Marco Botti. She is a grand-daughter of Aqaarid (Nashwan), winner of the Fillies’ Mile (G1) and runner-up in the 1,000 Guineas (G1).

Four more fillies who ran in the Kensington Palace Stakes reoppose here, headed by the five-year-old Dubai Love (Night Of Thunder).

She finished seventh at Royal Ascot, which was a fine effort as she was caught wide throughout. She is out of the Dylan Thomas mare Devotion, bred by Petches Farm and was bought by Godolphin for 120,000gns at the Tattersalls December Foal Sale 2017.

The Floors Farming and Ors Bloodstock-bred Rosemary And Thyme (Camelot), who finished 13th at the Royal meeting, has made big strides without winning since her last success at Lingfield of a BHA mark of just 69 in April 2021.

Alan and Susie Gray’s homebred five-year-old filly Ffion (Sepoy) was 15th at Royal Ascot after success on her seasonal debut at Chester in May. She is a consistent sort and has won or placed eight times in 12 starts. She is from a family that stetches back to the top miler and two-year-old filly Marling.

Serenading (Iffraaj), bred and owned by Manor Farm and John Rose, beat just one home at Royal Ascot and this is her first step into Listed class company. She finished fourth in a competitive fillies’ handicap at Ascot in May. She was an expensive yearling and the breeders bought her back at a much-reduced price at the Tattersalls Ascot March Sale in 2019.

The Godolphin-bred George Boughey-trained contender Romantic Rival (Shamardal) was purchased by Stephen Hillen Bloodstock for €110,000 at the Arqana December Sale 2021, the winning filly previously trained in France. She has not yet been competitive in two outings at stakes level for her new trainer but did win a fillies’ handicap at Kempton last time out.

Her connections are keen to try and add some black-type to an already impressive pedigree – her dam Sense Of Fun is a sister to the Group 1 Prix Jean Prat winner Aesop’s Fables (Distorted Humor) the pair out of Abhisheka (Sadler’s Wells). She was closely related to the unbeaten, three-time Group 1 winner Lammtarra (Nijinsky).

The Ken Condon-trained Let’s (Shalaa) is looking to convert Listed placed form to winning form having finished fourth last time out in the Listed Queen Of Scots Stakes at Musselburgh. She was a €42,000 KF Bloodstock purchase at the Goffs Sportsman Sale in 2019. She has won twice in 20 starts, last time successful in a Limerick handicap in June 2021.

THIS YEAR’S RUNNERS OF THE WEATHERBYS BLOODSTOCK PRO PIPALONG STAKES Nine fillies and mares go to post for this year’s Weatherbys Bloodstock Pro Pipalong Stakes, with the Listed contest over a mile having been won by Cheveley Park – who aren’t represented this year – in each of the past three seasons.

Roman Mist chased home two Cheveley Park-owned (and bred) mares when third in the Princess Elizabeth Stakes at Epsom last time and drops in class here. The grey was never far from the pace and had earlier beaten the runner-up when successful in Listed company at Kempton. That form has worked out very well since, with the third My Astra winning a Listed race by 12 lengths next time before finishing runner-up in the Group 1 Pretty Polly Stakes, whilst the fourth Lola Showgirl won a Group 3 on her next start.

Tom Ward’s filly has, arguably, the best single piece of form on offer and is clearly an improving four-year-old. She carries a penalty for that earlier Listed win, but the daughter of Holy Roman Emperor warrants utmost respected.

On official ratings, Thunder Beauty comes out much the best, with the BHA rating David O’Meara’s Night Of Thunder filly 2lbs superior to Roman Mist yet she receives 3lbs. Another four-yearold who drops in class, she finished runner-up in the Group 2 Duke Of Cambridge Stakes at Royal Ascot last time. Yet to win for her current stable, she has actually only ever won once in her life, when landing a six-furlong maiden at the Curragh almost two years ago.

Unexposed over this mile trip, she travelled well at Ascot and a reproduction of that run would obviously make her a leading contender under Daniel Tudhope.

Godolphin are represented by Dubai Love who is another who hasn’t won for a while. She landed the UAE 1000 Guineas in January 2020 and has struggled a little in cheek-pieces since returningfromanotherwinterinMeydan.Shefinishedonlyseventhinthe Kensington Palace last time, although she was caught wide and only faded late on. Going back up in trip should help the daughter of Night Of Thunder, although she faces a couple of in-form rivals this afternoon, who arrive here at the top of their game.

Rising Star actually won the Kensington Palace, when receiving 7lbs from Dubai Love. They race off level weights this time, but again she faces a much stiffer task on this occasion.

The other last-time-out winner in the line-up is the George Boughey-trained filly, Romantic Rival. She won a Kempton handicap by a nose off a mark of 85 last month, so clearly is another who needs to take a big step forward on all-known form. Formerly trained in France and owned by Godolphin, that was her first win on just her third start for the Classic winning trainer.

The remaining four runners also all have a bit to find on official ratings with the likes of Roman Mist and Thunder Beauty, with the pick of the quartet being Let’s who travels over from Ireland. She finished quite well at Musselburgh last time and will likely appreciate the longer trip, but is another who needs to put up a career-best to get involved.

If THUNDER BEAUTY can reproduce the form she showed when second in a Royal Ascot Group 2 last month then she’s the one to beat. Roman Mist has a 3lb penalty as a result of her AW listed success in April but she could still be the one to give David O’Meara’s charge most to do ahead of Dubai Love.

PLAY SMARTER

CHIMED’s Windsor second to the useful Maksud reads well and he’s worth a chance to atone for a lesser run at Nottingham since. Chillingham showed promise on his Redcar debut and can fill the forecast spot. Golden Keeper may prove best of the remainder.

KING OF SPEED is interesting back on turf having bagged a Redcar maiden at 2 yrs (well beaten sole subsequent run on grass, but that was in the Norfolk Stakes at Royal Ascot) and given that he should be sharper following his recent reappearance spin on the all-weather. Tiberio Smile has been given a chance by the handicapper and is feared most ahead of stablemate Trust Bertie and Eruption.
