13:20 · Bath

Shahbaz (IRE)

Big Stage Hire 'Confined' Amateur Jockeys' Handicap (Have Not Won A Flat Race In 2026)

Outcome
LAY WON
Recommended lay
7.40
Winner
Stintino Sunset
Horse result
4th of 7

What worked

Shahbaz led early and was still close to the leaders two furlongs out, but weakened inside the final furlong. Stintino Sunset won, with Shahbaz finishing fourth, six and a half lengths behind.

What to watch

He was involved for much of the race, so the decisive point was his late weakening rather than an early loss of position.

14:05 · Chester

Granite Bay

Virgin Bet Supports Safe Gambling Watergate Cup (Heritage Handicap) (GBBPlus Race)

Outcome
LAY WON
Recommended lay
6.40
Winner
Pole Star
Horse result
2nd of 10

What worked

Granite Bay ran a strong race and finished second, one length behind Pole Star. He was the main threat at the finish but could not get past the winner.

What to watch

This was the day's closest call: the lay won, but Granite Bay remained a serious danger all the way to the line.

14:10 · Leopardstown

Excellent Believe

Irish Stallion Farms EBF Sovereign Path Handicap (Premier Handicap)

Outcome
LAY WON
Recommended lay
11.00
Winner
Krasimir
Horse result
7th of 17

What worked

Excellent Believe finished seventh in a tightly packed handicap, two and a quarter lengths behind Krasimir. He was close enough to the leaders but did not produce the finish needed to win.

What to watch

The small overall margin shows that he was competitive despite finishing outside the places.

14:55 · Doncaster

Betfred Park Stakes (Group 2)

Outcome
LAY WON
Recommended lay
11.00
Winner
More Thunder
Horse result

What worked

Never So Brave finished sixth as More Thunder won by one and three-quarter lengths. The selection was four and a half lengths behind the winner and never got close enough at the finish.

What to watch

The runners from third to sixth were closely grouped, but Never So Brave was still well held by the winner.

15:35 · Doncaster

Pierre Bonnard (IRE)

Betfred St Leger Stakes (Group 1)

Outcome
LAY WON
Recommended lay
5.60
Winner
Highwayman
Horse result
6th of 11

What worked

Pierre Bonnard finished sixth and was eight and three-quarter lengths behind Highwayman. The winner pulled two and a half lengths clear of the runner-up, while Pierre Bonnard was well held farther back.

What to watch

He was one of the shorter-priced runners, but the first five all finished ahead of him and he was well held by the winner.

15:55 · Leopardstown

Precise (IRE)

Coolmore America 'Justify' Matron Stakes (Group 1) (Fillies & Mares)

Outcome
LAY WON
Recommended lay
4.20
Winner
Blue Bolt
Horse result
5th of 9

What worked

Precise finished fifth, four and a quarter lengths behind Blue Bolt. She was beaten out of the places as the favourite won by two and a quarter lengths.

What to watch

Precise again met Blue Bolt at the top level but could not match the winner's finish on the day.

17:05 · Bath

Nammos

Alec Smith Is Getting Married Handicap (Div I)

Outcome
LAY WON
Recommended lay
11.00
Winner
Green Icon
Horse result
6th of 11

What worked

Nammos finished sixth, four and a quarter lengths behind Green Icon. She stayed in the main group but did not make a winning challenge as the favourite held on.

What to watch

She was not beaten a long way, but five rivals finished ahead of her and the winner was always beyond reach at the line.

What we learned / things to watch

The day produced seven lay wins from seven settled picks. Shahbaz faded in the closing stages, while Never So Brave, Pierre Bonnard, Precise and Nammos all finished outside the places.

Granite Bay's close second and Excellent Believe's place in a tightly packed finish show why the result margin still matters. A horse can be safely beaten for the lay while remaining a serious danger deep into the race.
