Newmarket is good to firm for the final day of the July meeting. There is excellent action also at Ascot, York and Chester. This corresponding Saturday has proved very costly to me over many years with far more negative days than positive. The July Cup only switched to being a Saturday fixture a decade or so ago before then the July meeting ran Tuesday to Thursday. I'll keep things simple today and concentrate on the Cup which is a race that I've traditionally done well in.
There is a potential equine superstar here in Caravaggio who overcame difficulties when winning at Royal Ascot and looked tremendous in doing so. I doubt that Harry Angel who finished second there can turn the table here. Limato is a terrific horse on his day and waltzed home in this last year. The Tin Man already has two G1 sprints under his belt and Tasleet was only a neck behind him at Ascot and is showing much improved form this year. It's a very strong field but nevertheless I have Caravaggio odds on at 1.80 and cannot get him any longer.
Suggested Bet: Caravaggio 2.75 units at 1.90 or better. Take the current 2.16 on Betfair for half the stake and average in with the balance. I expect this one to be very solid in betting late.
