York 2:15 - 'betfred £10 Million Scoop6 This Saturday' Middleton Stakes(Group 2) (1) 1m2f 88yds Thistle Bird heads the market at the moment for Roger Charlton and with Frankie Dettori booked to ride she will be a popular choice. She won a Group 3 at Epsom this time last year and finished a brilliant 2nd behind Winsili in the Nassau Stakes, a Group 1 at Goodwood. She also finished 3rd in the Prix de l'Opera at Longchamp when last seen and if she runs up to that level here, she could be the one to beat. Ambivalent ran an absolute blinder in the Sheema Classic at Meydan last time out, finishing 3rd at 50/1 so she is another that comes here fit and with a shout. I fancy Mango Diva to improve a lot this season, she should go on the ground and she has a master jockey on board. Mango Diva WIN @ 6/1 Paddy Power - £250 Free Bet when you Register!

Re: BBOTD > Thursday May 15th 1.45 York - Normal Equilibrium 1pt win @ 14/1 SkyBet The Robert Cowell yard have really struck form in the last couple of weeks with the majority of his horses finishing in the first 2. He shows a massive level stakes profit in the last couple of weeks and also at the track. This horse won last time out and looks to be progressing nicely. He is well drawn in 8 here as the last 6 winners have been drawn 9 or lower. He is only a 4 year old so there should be plenty more to come from him. He runs here off 91 with the talented Robert Tart taking off a further 5lbs. I certainly think he is one of the more interesting contenders in this race.
