Epsom Downs Race 2 - Betfred Play Fred's 5 Million Ebf Restricted Mdn Stakes (Gbb Race)
SHEMIYLA STAR (4) ran with tremendous promise on debut at Pontefract last month to only be denied by a neck contesting a 1200m event. Expected to show much more on this second start and prove hard to beat. FOSCARINI (2) produced a debut effort that wasn't devoid of promise staying on nicely to the finish line when fifth after meeting interference. One to keep onside. WISE AND WONDERFUL (7) stepped forward from her quiet debut at Kempton Park finishing runner up at Wetherby behind a smart winner. Not to be taken lightly. BULLRIDER (5) is the pick of the newcomers hailing from a top yard under Billy Loughnane.
