Our top pick for the 15:00 race at Newmarket, the ZYN Abernant Stakes, is none other than Beckford's Folly. This 3-year-old gelding trained by C Appleby and ridden by W Buick is showing a lot of promise. Despite not having raced recently, looking at his form over 720 days where he competed in five races and won three really catches the eye. He seems to favor this track and distance, boasting a solid strike rate which suggests he’s no stranger to crossing the finish line first here at Newmarket. Next, we've got Prince of India, a 4-year-old colt which Hollie Doyle will be riding for trainer M Botti. Prince of India is a seasoned competitor with decent long-term form, showing durability over 720 days with 12 races and four wins. The colt’s performance on this track and distance in the past is also notable, highlighting a good synergy between the horse and the Newmarket 6f stretch. Lastly, don’t overlook Elmonjed, piloted by Tom Marquand and trained by W J Haggas. This 5-year-old gelding has a mix of experiences and some successes, with his long-term racing stats displaying four wins out of 12 starts over 720 days. Though his recent form isn't outlined, his overall performance suggests he's capable of putting up a good fight. While the favourite Beckford’s Folly seems in good standing for a strong performance, both Prince of India and Elmonjed might give him a run for his money. Be sure to consider the going, thought to be favourable for all top three contenders. Happy betting and remember to gamble responsibly!
