Doyle: Zavateri Sets the Standard in Greenham Stakes

Jockey Hollie Doyle previews her busy Saturday, featuring promising horses at Thirsk and key contenders in the Greenham Stakes at Newbury. Doyle's day begins at Thirsk, where she rides Niewiadoma, a debutante with natural speed and a lovely attitude, in the British EBF Fillies' Novice Stakes. Merlier, who has been progressive on the All-Weather, will be ridden by Doyle in the Stirrup Bar For Deli-Style Dining Packages Handicap. At Newbury, Doyle is excited about the Greenham Stakes, where Zavateri and Albert Einstein will clash. Zavateri, the standard-setter, concluded his juvenile campaign with a Group 1 win and will be a strong contender. Meanwhile, Doyle expects Warm Spell to perform well in the Join Racing TV Today Handicap, having been eased to a career-low mark. Doyle will also ride Idyllic, a course and distance winner, in the Happy 21st Birthday Lily Watkinson Handicap, and Solar Biricz, who steps up to six furlongs for the first time, in the Nick Simpson Cannot Be 60 Handicap. In other races, Doyle fancies Touleen in the Dubai Duty Free Stakes, while Urban Lion has the potential to build on his Lincoln win in the Win Unique Experiences At OLBG Prizes Spring Cup Handicap. Al Aasy is also tipped to perform well in the Dubai Duty Free Finest Surprise Stakes.
