Hollie Doyle's Blog: Gaining Insights into Derby Prospect Wareeth

This week, Sky Sports Racing ambassador Hollie Doyle will be in action at Newmarket's Craven meeting, with a notable ride on the promising Derby contender Wareeth in the Listed Feilden Stakes. On Wednesday, Wareeth, trained by Archie Watson, will participate in the Listed Feilden Stakes, providing an opportunity to assess his potential as a Derby candidate. The extra distance is expected to suit the son of Sea The Stars, following his impressive 14-length victory in a novice race at Newcastle last month. Although Wareeth does not currently hold a Derby entry, his performance since his racecourse debut has been promising. The Feilden Stakes will be a significant step up in class for Wareeth, and his chances will be evaluated against Aidan O'Brien's experienced Isaac Newton and Godolphin's Poseidon's Warrior, both of whom have Derby entries and are aiming for the Group 2 Dante at York. Meanwhile, Heather Main's sprinter Zoulu Chief is anticipated to deliver a strong performance in the Weatherbys With Venatour Racing Handicap, having shown excellent form at Newmarket in the autumn. Hollie Doyle has also ridden work on Jane Chapple-Hyam's outsider Harlequin Breeze, who is expected to put in a notable effort in the Group 3 Lanwades Stud Nell Gwyn Stakes. Despite being a maiden after three starts, Harlequin Breeze has demonstrated improvement with each run and has the potential to make an impact in this 1000 Guineas trial. Impossible Mission, trained by John Butler, will need to prove his ability on turf when receiving weight from his rivals in the National Stud Handicap. In the Molson Coors British EBF Maiden Fillies' Stakes, Des Donovan's debutant Lady Fizz will face fillies from prominent yards over 1m, which may be a minimum distance for her in the future. On Thursday, Hollie Doyle will ride Marco Botti's Shergar Cup winner Prince Of India in the Zyn Abernant Stakes, a powerfully built colt who could be a force in stakes sprints this summer. Hawk Mountain, trained by Aidan O'Brien, is expected to make a winning return in the Group 3 Betway Craven Stakes, strengthening his own Derby claims. Another notable runner is Karl Burke's Boiling Point, who returns to turf in the Group 3 Betway Earl Of Sefton Stakes, aiming to establish himself as a genuine Pattern performer this season.
