Ascot Race 4 - Eventmasters.co.uk Commonwealth Cup Trial Stakes (Group 3) (Registered As The Pavilion Stakes)
An interesting Commonwealth Cup trial. The unexposed and progressive REBEL'S GAMBLE (10) might have something to find on bare form however did impress delivering recent starts. He picked up in the manner of a smart horse winning the Listed Spring Cup at Lingfield in March and is taken to make a successful first start on turf up in class. Runner-up in the G2 Coventry Stakes last year ELECTROLYTE (8) rounded off his season with a victory tackling the G3 Prix Eclipse at Chantilly. Consider upon return. Similar comments apply to BIG MOJO (3) who shaped well running fourth in the G1 Breeders Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint at Del Mar during November. ARABIE (2) also needs to be included.
