bet365 Best From The West: Ascot – 21st October 2023

The Summer carnival is about to hot up and we go group racing at Ascot on the weekend.

It is very easy to like the way Valour Road has returned as he heads into the G3 Eurythmic Stakes and he's value.

He had a long long spell of over a year but clearly has come back in good order with two strong trials and then winning the Idyllic Prince.

Landing in the one by one, he did have a nice run but had to ease to get clear cornering. Once he did he let rip and rounded them up.

You'd say another 0 will pose no issue having won the Scahill almost two years back. Maybe the only concern would be sometimes they don't back up a big first up run off such a break but trust Simon Miller to get him right.

The previous race is the Listed Crawford Stakes and there is a really interesting form reference.

Back in March they ran the Rock Magic Stakes and Acromantula defeated Red Can Man and Baby Paris.

The horse that is hugely benefitted from the weight swings into this is Red Can Man. If he can show his best at 5 f he's got to be a huge hope.

There will be strong speed as you would hope over this journey but he wouldn't want too much so he's not run off his feet.

Thinking we may get decent odds with backing surely for others.
