Sentaril hard to beat in Miles & Morrison E B F October Stakes at Royal Ascot
A chance should be taken only on Sentaril, who surely deserves respect on her second at Royal Ascot in June. Although the 3-year-old did not maintain standards the last two times, one needs a big heart to ignore her prospects.
Trained by William Haggas, the bay filly has excuses for her latest trouncing at Doncaster, where the ground was fast. There is a cut in Royal Ascot’s surface, which is going to help her big time in the Miles & Morrison E B F October Stakes, taking place
on Saturday, October 6th.
Sentaril made a wonderful start to her career. She showed it to the world that her debut success at Newbury was not a fluke. After making an excellent debut, the daughter of Danehill Dancer carried forward her momentum to clinch another win at Doncaster
in May.
She was runner-up at Ascot on her third start. In the Group 3 Jersey Stakes, the juvenile took a steadied start, taking a keen hold in the early stages.
Despite a lazy effort in the middle, the 5-1 chance did not lose determination, and travelled nicely to reach the front row inside the final furlong. She was in a great position to claim the victory, but went second in the last stride.
It was a superb act, and the memories of that are still fresh. Despite the unfavourable conditions last twice, the Lael Stable-owned was not disgraced. She is expected to regain her winning momentum on her return to this track.
The filly is set to face 16 rivals in today’s 7f event. The officials will start the proceedings at 16:45 GMT. Get ready for a lot of thrill, because every horse will try his best to bag the big prize worth £19,849.
Bonnie Brae was not impressive on her previous start at Doncaster, but an improvement is expected here. Punita is unbeaten so far. Her confidence is at a high, but it is unsure how good she will perform at this level.
Punita, the unbeaten potential improver, is facing a tough task. She is likely to do well, but will not be able to surpass Sentaril. Good luck to all the horses.
