Sussex Stakes 2020

[Salubrious Chin]

Not sure where to put this but sounds like Kameko will go to the Sussex Stakes. Currently 8/1 with Unibet

I have an interest in Siskin as the Skybet special with Shishkin was highlighted a week or so ago.


Mohaather is an intended runner too I read yesterday, although can't find the article now.

Thanks Kev

Best priced 13/2 or 7/1 boosted with Hills

Seems a fair each way price for the Guineas winner.


Certainly not an each way good thing, as Siskin, Mohaather, Circus Maximus - hard to say they wouldn't run big races too....


However, having had 1.5 pt on Siskin/Shishkin at 16/1

I'll have 1.5pts e/w on Kameko as I prefer that form to the Queen Anne personally.

[Appreciate It]

Do we know if Pinatubo is a likely runner here? If he is, I think the current price represents a little bit of each way value at around 6/1. I think the 1000 Guineas and St James' Palace represent comfortably the strongest 3yo form over a mile either side of the Irish Sea. Goodwood will suit him far better than Newmarket, and I'd fancy him to beat Kameko round here - especially in the absence of a strong pace. Obviously Siskin could be very very good, but I wouldn't fancy 6/4 about the winner of what now appears to be a pretty weak Irish Guineas.

Currently seems unlikely based on CA quotes - they seem concerned about the lack of significant break so far

Thanks for that Thorne. I shall cash out promptly!

Market update:

[Stormy Antarctic]

It’ll be interesting to see if Earthlight gets over here. He could still be top class. He’s had a pretty light campaign so far too. Looks like Fabre could be readying him for something like this after his little set back?

[Stormy Antarctic]

He could be my pick for the Prix Foret later on.

Ya - I'm not sure he's a miler. I'm tempted by Circus Maximus at those prices - market is placing massive weight in the 3 yr olds and we don't yet know their relative strength yet. Siskin has to drift unless the field cuts up - I'm not sure what to make of the Mohaather either but seems underpriced also based on what he's done so far (esp compared to CM)

[Kevloaf]

Most interesting Sussex Stakes since Frankel faced Canford Cliffs



You'd be disappointed if Circus Maximus (who split Too Darn Hot and I Can Fly) last year, is the one setting the standard.

I agree the market is assuming the 3 year olds are stornger, but by God I hope they're right



I'm still only on Siskin in a 1.5pt double and Kameko at 7/1 e/w
