Wednesday’s Classic trial offers a clash of the Godolphin stables. Plus best bets for Tuesday’s action at Newmarket
Godolphin’s two Newmarket stables go head to head in Wednesday’s Craven Stakes, the highlight event as racing returns to the town after its winter break. Zakouski, from the Charlie Appleby yard that won last year’s Craven with Masar, is 2-1 favourite while next in the betting is Royal Marine, trained by Saeed bin Suroor.
That surprised Appleby, who said: “I would have thought Saeed’s horse would be favourite, to be honest. He’s a Group One performer already and the one that we’ve all got to beat.
