More Oaks glory beckons for Minnie Hauk
Aidan O'Brien's daughter of Frankel has proved tough as teak this season and took her winning run to four when adding to her Oaks success at Epsom in the Irish equivalent last month. Having worn down high-class stablemate Whirl – herself a dual Group one scorer since – late in the day at Epsom, Minnie Hauk again showed her staying prowess when doubling her Classic tally at the Curragh. With O'Brien holding all the aces in this Group One he has won nine times, Minnie Hauk is his trump card and it is difficult to see any of her rivals having both the class and resolve to outlast this outstanding filly up the Knavesmire's long home straight. She can add a third Oaks of the year here and begin dreams of Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe glory for her ever-dominant team. The action begins with a red-hot renewal of the Sky Bet Lowther Stakes where the intertwining form lines of the six-furlong juvenile division will be put to the test. Ed Walker's Royal Fixation and Tim Easterby's Argentine Tango both represent the high-class Venetian Sun form from Newmarket's Duchess of Cambridge Stakes, with the latter – who would be a popular local winner – also chasing home Nunthorpe favourite Lady Iman at Goodwood. However, it was hard not to be impresses with the way America Queen breezed her way to victory on debut at Haydock last month in the manner of an ultra-smart animal. Holes can easily be picked in the form of that race, but judged on visuals, Richard Hughes' youngster was one of the most impressive of the season to date and with Ryan Moore booked to take the ride a bold bid is predicted. Clive Cox is the man to follow in the Harry's Half Million By Goffs where Song Of The Clyde can follow in the footsteps of Dragon Leader and Diligently to land the huge bounty for a third year in a row. Yet to be dipped into deep waters, the Middleham Park Racing-owned colt beat a subsequent winner when opening his account at Chester on his second start and was not asked any serious questions when chasing home Ralph Beckett's Gimcrack hope Egoli at Newbury most recently. The owners also run Rod Millman's Anthelia who is sure to be shorter in the betting following her Super Sprint triumph at Newbury, but while she may have already enjoyed her moment in the sun, there is a chance Song Of The Clyde has his best days ahead of him. Remmooz enjoyed stepping up to a mile when scoring over course and distance last month and looks good value for just a 4lb raise in the Clipper Handicap. The only defeat of his career has come when a respectable fourth in the Jersey Stakes at Royal Ascot and it would be no surprise to see Owen Burrows' colt return to stakes company before the year is out. Paddy Twomey's Irish raider Bonus Time is another progressive performer to keep onside in the British EBF Fillies' Handicap after scooping a valuable prize at Naas at the beginning of the month.

Templegate's Tote Placepot tips with £250,000 guaranteed on day two of York Ebor Festival
Scroll down for the selections POT PICKERS Templegate's Tote Placepot tips with £250,000 guaranteed on day two of York Ebor Festival TEMPLEGATE'S Tote placepot picks for day two of York are below. Don't forget, you can bet £10 and receive £50 in free bets to use on horse racing with Tote. LEG 1 Royal Fixation, Staya 1 Minnie Hauk will be a short price but looks a good thing on day two of the Ebor Festival Credit: PA Advertisement ROYAL FIXATION can swoop late to land the Lowther. She surged home for second in the Duchess of Cambridge at Newmarket on just her second start, clocking a smart speed figure and shaping like a filly with loads more to come. STAYA also caught the eye finishing fast in a strong Group 3 at Ascot and will be running on late. LEG 2 Golden Brown, Song Of The Clyde Advertisement GOLDEN BROWN was really unlucky in a hot contest at Godowood last time. He was knocked sideways inside the final quarter-mile before keeping on. He's unexposed, back on quicker ground and this stronger pace should suit. SONG OF THE CLYDE is progressive and has place claims in what looks an open race. LEG 3 Remmooz, Bullet Point Advertisement REMMOOZ looked a Group horse in the making when winning on handicap debut over course and distance last time. He saw off a few of today's rivals with a bit left in the tank. Owen Burrows will conjure more improvement from him even from a mark of 102. BULLET POINT is in peak form and rarely runs a bad race. He was narrowly denied in a red-hot contest at Ascot last time and will likely force the pace again from a low draw. Advertisement LEG 4 Minnie Hauk MINNIE HAUK is the clear standout in this small but classy renewal of the Yorkshire Oaks. Unbeaten this season and already a dual Oaks winner, she's been dominant over this trip and shaped as though there was plenty in the tank when grinding out victory in the Irish Oaks last month. LEG 5 Rainbows Edge, Charlotte's Web RAINBOWS EDGE has gone close a couple of times at Listed level and this is a great winning chance. Advertisement She took a fast-ground handicap over a mile at Ascot in May and proved that was no fluke when denied only a neck over 1m2f in a stronger race than this here last month. CHARLOTTE'S WEB was right behind the Royal runner last time and will be in the mix again. LEG 6 Stellar Sunrise, Amazing Journey STELLAR SUNRISE took a big step forward when winning at Goodwood last time and starts handicapping from a fair mark. AMAZING JOURNEY scored here two starts ago and was really unlucky not to finish closer than fifth at Goodwood latest.
