Capri is the 11-8 favourite with Coral for Saturday’s Racing Post Trophy, ahead of his stablemate Yucatan at 5-1, in the firm’s opening show on the Doncaster Group One. Rivet is next at 13-2, with the recent York winner Sir Dancealot priced at 9-1.

The market leader’s trainer, Aidan O’Brien, is evens with Coral to surpass Bobby Frankel’s record of 25 Group One winners in a year, having sent out 22 top level scorers so far in 2016, including the Triumph Hurdle.

“Needing four more top level winners for the record, Aidan O’Brien has a strong hand for the UK’s final Group One, with 11-8 favourite Capri spearheading his Racing Post Trophy bid,” said Coral’s David Stevens.
