Newmarket Race 3 - Betway Earl Of Sefton Stakes (Group 3)

Finishing second in the G2 Dante and winning the Deauville Listed last year DAMYSUS (1) bids for a hat-trick on return following a 0.75L victory attempting the course and distance G3 Darley Stakes last October. Ticks plenty of boxes. BOILING POINT (2) ended last season with a nose success in the track and trip Cambridgeshire Heritage Handicap before a 1.5L fourth tackling the 2000m G3 Winter Derby at Lingfield AW two months ago. Rates highly. SKUKUZA (6) is a previous Newmarket winner. Runs second up after a fair 1.5L fifth contesting the 1600m G3 Prix Edmond Blanc at Saint-Cloud (France) two weeks ago. In the mix among this company. KING'S GAMBIT (3) warrants a second look.
