Thursday horse racing tips

Sandown

• 5.10: Killavia 13/2 each-way (1pt)
• 5.42: Princesse d’Orange 11/1 each-way (1pt)
• 6.42: Talk Of New York 5/4 (1pt)

Killavia

Major Neigh Sayer is a short price but looks best watched considering he’s being dropped right in trip down to 5f.

Killavia made all here in a maiden contest last year before being moved into some tough group contests, so this one looks much more promising given her proven course form.

Not many of these horses have form over 5f either, so that’s another bonus for this each-way play.

Princesse d’Orange

Bolted up at Beverley before placing a distant fifth in a listed fillies contest.

Went off favourite that day but was a little too keen and weakened out of contention. But the ability is still there and she could bounce back at a gigantic price considering her potential.

Talk Of New York

Got a Royal Ascot entry for the St James’s Palace Stakes and this could prove the ideal prep race.

Especially after his great run at Newmarket last month, should handle the hotter conditions today too given his run at Meydan and is the big favourite for a reason.

Yazin might provide the biggest competition but is still at around 5/1 and the closest in the market to the William Buick mount, so could be the value play but all signs point towards this speedy colt.
