4.05 – Divina Grace
I’ve got just one ride at Newmarket on Friday, but it is an exciting one in the Group Two Jockey Club Stakes on board Divina Grace. I rode her to victory on her seasonal reappearance at Newbury in the John Porter Stakes in what was a tough performance to get her nose in front. That was her first run since switching to Andrew Balding’s yard.
She has come out that race at Newbury well, and I really think she can take another step forward. There are only four runners in this field, but you can make a case for all four. My runner is versatile, so that will help if this becomes a tactical contest. She won’t mind making the running, and equally, we can sit off the pace.
Everything about her from her coat to her work at home suggests she is set for another big run. I’d be delighted if this mare was to score at this Group Two level.
