The Spring Trials weekend gets underway at Newbury, featuring the Darley EBF Novice Stakes with Shabab Al Ahli facing Sahara King. Shabab Al Ahli, trained by Charlie Appleby, is a Frankel colt that won at Southwell in February and is now stepping down a furlong in trip. He is considered a potential contender for the Epsom Classic. Sahara King, on the other hand, is a promising horse that won on debut at Wolverhampton in November.
Another notable entry is My Love Is King, trained by Gosden, who won comfortably on debut at Newcastle and holds a Derby entry. The Henri Matisse Coolmore Prix Cleopatre will also take place, with Gilded Prize, a daughter of Frankel, looking to take top honors on her way to the Prix de Diane at Chantilly.
Other races include the Bridget 'Confined' Maiden Fillies' Stakes, featuring Synchronicity, a full-sister to Ombudsman, and the Dreweatts Maiden Fillies' Stakes, with Take A View making her debut.
