Soul Love Aims for Prix Sigy Victory on Sky Sports Racing
Tuesday's Sky Sports Racing features the Group Three Prix Sigy, with Karl Burke's unbeaten Soul Love leading the British charge in the Chantilly sprint contest. The Prix Sigy has attracted a strong field, including Argentine Tango, who will be representing British interests alongside Soul Love. Karl Burke, fresh from a win in France on Sunday, will be hoping Soul Love can extend her unbeaten record under jockey Sam James. As a daughter of Starman, Soul Love has impressed in her all-weather victories but will need to elevate her performance to compete at this higher level. She has earned the opportunity to test her mettle at this level and may prove to be above average. Francis-Henri Graffard's Moojeed, a Group Three winner as a two-year-old, will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing outing in the Prix Robert Papin under Mickael Brzalona. Argentine Tango, who showed excellent form as a two-year-old, including a Listed win at Newmarket, is reported to be in fine form and could put in a strong performance. Joseph O'Brien's Yaupon De Replay and Kimi Rey are the best of the remaining contenders. Meanwhile, at Lingfield, the Download The At The Races App Restricted Maiden Fillies' Stakes features a five-runner field, including Lara Antipova and Lahan Kingman, who are both seeking their first win. Lara Antipova, trained by Tom Clover, ran well on her debut at Wetherby and followed up with a second-place finish at Wolverhampton. She is likely to be a strong contender in this similar contest. Lahan Kingman finished third to Guineas hopeful Touleen on her first start and then ran creditably when second at Wolverhampton, and is expected to improve having shown signs of inexperience. Andrew Balding's Leonie, Cosmic, and Stolen complete the field. For fans of jump racing, Newton Abbot hosts a six-race card, with the Visit Kauto The King 6th May Handicap Chase featuring recent winners Soldierofthestorm and Tapley. Jonjo O'Neill Jr's Soldierofthestorm, who won over fences at Sandown last month, is the one to beat under his 5lb higher mark. Tapley, trained by Suzy Smith, is the main danger after building on a couple of placed efforts to secure a second fencing success at Stratford. Sheldon is also worth considering after a solid second-place finish at Newbury, although he has not won in over two years.
