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 Soul Love leading the British charge in the sprint event at Chantilly. This renewal appears particularly competitive, with Argentine Tango and Soul Love at the forefront of the British contenders. Following a winning weekend in France, Burke saddles the undefeated Soul Love, ridden by Sam James. As a daughter of Starman, she has excelled in her all-weather victories but will need to elevate her performance to remain competitive. She merits a chance at this higher level and could prove to be above average. Moojeed, trained by Francis-Henri Graffard, is another strong contender, having achieved a Group Three win as a two-year-old before a disappointing outing in the Prix Robert Papin. Argentine Tango, highly regarded at two, demonstrated impressive form, including a Listed win at Newmarket, and her connections report her to be in excellent condition. Joseph O'Brien's Yaupon De Replay and Kimi Rey are also among the top contenders. The Download The At The Races App Restricted Maiden Fillies' Stakes at Lingfield features a potential standout in the five-horse field, with Lara Antipova and Lahan Kingman seeking their maiden victories. Lara Antipova, trained by Tom Clover, showed promise in her debut at Wetherby and followed up with a second-place finish at Wolverhampton. She is expected to perform well in this similar event. Lahan Kingman finished third to Guineas hopeful Touleen in her first start and then ran credibly when second at Wolverhampton, indicating potential for improvement. Andrew Balding's Leonie, Cosmic, and Stolen complete the field. For fans of jump racing, Newton Abbot hosts a six-race card, headlined by the Visit Kauto The King 6th May Handicap Chase. Recent winners Soldierofthestorm and Tapley are the top contenders, with Jonjo O'Neill Jr's Soldierofthestorm seeking to build on his fencing win at Sandown last month. Having jumped impressively, he is the one to beat under his new 5lb higher mark. Tapley, representing the Suzy Smith team, is the main threat, having secured a second fencing success at Stratford. Sheldon is also worth consideration after his solid second-place finish at Newbury, despite being without a win for over two years.
