Our Tips to Follow on Day 1 of Ebor Festival
NAP of the Day (14:25) - Ruling Court
Our NAP of the Day is the highly touted Ruling Court, a €2.3m purchase, impressed on debut, winning easily. He's expected to improve further stepping up in class.

9/2

Was well backed on handicap debut last time out and should improve here with the step up in trip being in his favour.
This is trainer Simon Pearce's only runner of the day too.

Win Double Tip- Ruling Court (2.25 York) To Win & Los Angeles (3.00 York) To Win
Our Win Double Tip for the first day of Ebor, Los Angeles, a former Group 1 winner, showed his class with a gutsy Irish Derby win. Despite a penalty, his form is top-notch and he could challenge King’s Gambit for the win.
Ruling Court, impressive on debut, is expected to improve further stepping up in class.
Sorry, no tips are available today!
Dark Horse Tip (17:20) - Sex On Fire
Unlucky at Goodwood, showed promise despite a wide trip. Fresh and well-handicapped, a fast pace should suit.

8/1
Age: 7
Weight: 10-11
Days: 28
Wasn't disgraced on first start for 11 months last time out and should come on for that here up in trip.
This horse was punted all the way into 3/1 from 20/1 that day too so the support was there which is interesting.
Has also been dropped a few lb for that run and could be primed to strike with talented rider Benjamin Macey on board claiming 8 lb off.
