Who To Follow At York On Sunday

Horse To Follow - Judicial

The feature race on the card is the Listed Garrowby Stakes and in a field that you could make a case for all the runners we are sticking with the class act this season.

Judicial for Julie Camacho has been the yards shining light this term, even at the age of eight years old still getting better and better with every run.

This term he has raced four times finishing second at Newmarket behind the very smart Far above and then getting off the mark for the season in the Group Three Chipchase Stakes at Newcastle.

He headed to Newbury in high spirits and finished a valiant fourth behind some smart runners in the Hackwood Stakes and then last time out got back to winning ways in a Listed race at Chester.

He faces another Listed event here and if still on the upward curve should mount a big challenge.

Trainer To Follow - Adrian Nicholls

Adrian Nicholls is a very shrewd trainers that seems to have a very nice horse in his ranks at the moment and she runs in the first race of the day at York.

Mamba Wamba is his only runner on the Sunday at any track and the juvenile looks a very solid type that if going to get off the mark it will be this race.

The filly is one of the most experienced in the field racing four times and she has performed to a high standard in the majority of her races.

This is a drop down in grade for the juvenile having finished fourth in a four way photo finish last time out over course and distance in a Listed race and if running to the same standard should take this.

Nicholls also has superb record on the Knavesmire taking three of his horses up north and two of them winning, giving him a 66.67% strike rate at the track.

Jockey To Follow - Andrea Atzeni

Andrea Atzeni had a week to remember in the sport landing his 1000th winner in Britain and the Italian jockey has been at the top of the game for many years.

Being the retained rider for owner Sheikh Mohammed Obaid has gone a long way to helping him get that figure and he some nice riders for his owner on Sunday.

One of his best chances comes on Athers in the Future Stayers Novice Stakes and the son of Dubawi made his debut at Doncaster in a 7f contests and he finished a fair third behind a bright spark for Hamdan Al Maktoum.

He should come on for that run and had the jump on most in the field having already having that first day of school and that experience should pay dividends.
