Wednesday evening promises exciting All-Weather racing action from Southwell, broadcast live on Sky Sports Racing. The Come Racing For Free 18th June Novice Stakes is set to be a thrilling encounter, featuring three unexposed colts.
Goldinthesea, having recently switched from Joseph O'Brien's yard to Ed Bethell's, is an intriguing runner. He showed impressive form at Dundalk in January, with the third-place finisher going on to win, suggesting a promising future for his new connections. Penny Time is another exciting contender, trained by Hugo Plamer, who convincingly won at Southwell last month.
Owen Burrows' Sassicaia has only raced once, winning at Wolverhampton in December, and like the others, remains an unknown quantity with potential for growth. Debutant Shadow Boxer, representing Victorious Forever, cost €520,000, and the market will reveal more about this colt. The Ladies Day Sunday 16th August Fillies' Handicap also promises to be competitive, with three recent winners clashing. Cool Molly, up three pounds after winning the All-Weather Vase Fillies' Handicap at Lingfield, deserves respect.
Vencedora, carrying the Sheikh Mohammed Obaid colors, and Rogue Citation have similar profiles, being lightly raced and unexposed. The finale features Seven Fires attempting to complete a hat-trick in the Summer Socials At Southwell Racecourse Fillies' Handicap. With two wins at Newcastle, showing versatility, she steps back up to six furlongs and should be tough to beat.
Top-rated Barefoot Beach and George Boughey's Zighy also have potential, making for an exciting conclusion to the evening.
