Soul Love Eyes Prix Sigy Victory on Sky Sports Racing
Tuesday's Sky Sports Racing schedule is headlined by the Group Three Prix Sigy, featuring Karl Burke's Soul Love, who is set to compete in the sprint event at Chantilly. The contest appears to be highly competitive, with Argentine Tango and Soul Love at the forefront of the British challenge. Burke, who recently achieved a win in France, will be partnering Soul Love with jockey Sam James. As the daughter of Starman, Soul Love has demonstrated impressive performance in her two all-weather victories but will need to elevate her game to remain competitive in this higher-level competition. She merits an opportunity at this level and has the potential to exceed expectations. Francis-Henri Graffard's Moojeed, who previously won at Group Three level as a two-year-old, will be ridden by Mickael Brzalona and is expected to rebound from a disappointing performance behind Green Sense in the Prix Robert Papin. Argentine Tango, who was highly regarded at two and showcased excellent form, including a Listed contest victory at Newmarket, is reported to be in fine form by her connections and could deliver a strong performance. Joseph O'Brien's Yaupon De Replay and Kimi Rey are considered to be among the top contenders. Meanwhile, the five-runner Download The At The Races App Restricted Maiden Fillies' Stakes at Lingfield may feature a talented filly or two, with Lara Antipova and Lahan Kingman attempting to secure their first win. Lara Antipova, trained by Tom Clover, performed well in her debut at Wetherby in June before finishing second at Wolverhampton in February, and she is likely to be a strong contender in this similar event. Lahan Kingman finished third to Guineas hopeful Touleen on her first start at Newbury last summer and then ran credibly when second at Wolverhampton last time, and she is expected to improve on that effort. Andrew Balding's Leonie is another notable entry, while Cosmic will make her debut for Richard Hannon, and Stolen completes the field. For fans of jump racing, a six-race card is scheduled at Newton Abbot, featuring the Visit Kauto The King 6th May Handicap Chase. Recent winners Soldierofthestorm and Tapley are the top contenders in this event. Jonjo O'Neill Jr's Soldierofthestorm achieved his first win over fences at Sandown last month and, having demonstrated exceptional jumping skills, is considered the favorite under this 5lb higher mark. Tapley, representing the Suzy Smith team, appears to be the primary threat, having built on a couple of placed efforts to secure a second fencing success at Stratford, and warrants respect under Isabelle Ryder. Sheldon is also worth considering after his solid second-place finish at Newbury, although he has not achieved a win in over two years.
