Newbury Race 4 - Dubai Duty Free Mill Reef Stakes (Group 2) (In Honour Of Geoff Lewis)
ROCK ON THUNDER (4) Ran out of steam towards the end when 2nd beaten by 1L last time at York and stepping down to a lower level. Suitably placed in this race. WORDS OF TRUTH (8) Bold effort when winning last time at Newmarket and promising career start. Has not missed this preparation with 2 wins from as many starts and dropping weight. Can get the job done. WATCHA SNOOP (7) Assumed control from the start when winning by a margin of 1 1/4L last run at Ascot and has drawn the rails. Gets a chance to win. INTO THE SKY (3) Pulled away to win by a margin of nearly 8L last time here and was a debutant last start. Include in chances.
