Today on Sky Sports Racing: Grey Charger fancied for Haggas

Saturday’s live action on Sky Sports Racing is from Lingfield, Chepstow and Bangor with some international flair as Auteuil and Saratoga host Group/Graded racing.

6.15 Lingfield – Grey Charger fancied for Haggas

The promising Grey Charger looks to land the Get Raceday Ready Restricted Novice Stakes (6.15).

The Caravaggio colt has made a strong start to his career with a win on his penultimate start and a second behind German 2000 Guineas winner Devil’s Point when last seen at Goodwood. He bids to get back to winning ways for a yard that won this contest last year.

Harry Charlton’s Edna E Mode was fourth on debut at Kempton. He will need to come on from this to be in with a chance in this contest.

Dancing Highlander was well beaten on debut at Southwell. Switching to turf now and the visor reached for may help this William Knight trained three-year-old.

Able Kane, King Of War and Hat Toss clash in the Vickers.Bet Handicap (7.00).

Rod Millman won this race in 2021 and 2022 with Sir Plato. This year he saddles the dangerously handicapped Able Kane. He could be a danger with Gina Mangan onboard claiming 3lb.

Bottom-weight King Of War has been running very consistently of late and he will be looking to go one better to win for his new trainer Michael Wigham. He should go close with Tyler Heard taking off a valuable 3lb.

Hat Toss has been progressing nicely for James Owen placing on his last three runs. Partnering up with the talented Sean D Bowen he should be competitive.
