Goldinthesea Aims for a Winning Debut at Southwell

This Wednesday evening, All-Weather racing action unfolds at Southwell, broadcast live on Sky Sports Racing, offering an exciting lineup of events. One of the highlights is the Come Racing For Free 18th June Novice Stakes, where three relatively untested colts are set to clash. Goldinthesea, recently transferred from Joseph O'Brien's stable to Ed Bethell's, shows promise after an impressive performance at Dundalk in January. The credibility of this win is bolstered by the third-place finisher's subsequent victory, suggesting Goldinthesea has a bright future ahead under new management. Penny Time, trained by Hugo Plamer, is another compelling contender, having dominated at Southwell last month, and he seeks his third consecutive win. Sassicaia, trained by Owen Burrows, has only raced once, securing a win at Wolverhampton in December, and like his competitors, his potential remains largely untapped. Shadow Boxer, a debutant costing €520,000, represents Victorious Forever, with the market likely to reveal more about his capabilities. For the latest in racing news, interviews, and features, stay connected. Another competitive race of the evening is the Ladies Day Sunday 16th August Fillies' Handicap, where three recent winners face off. Cool Molly, with a three-pound increase after her win at the All-Weather Vase Fillies' Handicap at Lingfield, commands respect, especially given her two wins in the last three starts. Vencedora, carrying the colors of Sheikh Mohammed Obaid and trained by Karl Burke, offers a contrasting profile as a lightly raced filly who remains unexposed, making her first start of the season after a win at Newmarket in September. Rogue Citation, representing The Rogues Gallery, shares a similar profile with Vencedora, having only run twice, with her sole win coming in October at Southwell. The race will be intriguing, particularly in seeing how Vencedora and Rogue Citation match up against the race-fit Cool Molly. The evening's finale features Seven Fires attempting to achieve a hat-trick in the Summer Socials At Southwell Racecourse Fillies' Handicap on her fifth career start. With versatility shown in her wins at Newcastle, Seven Fires steps back up to six furlongs and is expected to be a tough competitor. Top-rated Barefoot Beach, despite only two runs, aims to return to winning form after a close second at Kempton, having shown promise with a debut win over the same track and distance. Zighy, who recently broke her maiden, could prove even better, given her consistent top-three finishes in all five starts. Additionally, Betelgeuse seeks another course and distance victory at 6:30 at Southwell, while notable jockeys Zac Purton, Harry Bentley, Hugh Bowman, and Andrea Atzeni are in action at Happy Valley.
