Talking Horses

The big news is that Duke Of Marmalade runs tomorrow at York which is great news: 1. The race of the year with Derby winner New Approach is on 2. New Approach will be a bet as Duke Of Marmalade will go off at short odds Duke Of Marmalade is arguably the horse of the year so far and may well deservedly fill that post at the end of the campaign. However, the ground is all-important in horse racing and New Approach will definitely act on the soft going and it is very doubtful that the Duke will.

As far as today is concerned Jake The Snake 4.30pm is the one to be on at Lingfield. Kirsty Milczarek, who rode him the last time he won, is on board and the extra furlong he has to run over today should be in his favour.
