Fillies’ Mile: Shuwari heads eight-strong field
Published:![Shuwari, Fillies' Mile betting odds, horse racing](https://sports.coral.co.uk/news/cdn/img/814f060b-f0f1-4dd1-a608-40d8a233949b.jpeg?w=1920&fm=webp&q=75)
Shuwari is the 6/4 favourite in Coral’s Fillies’ Mile betting odds out of the eight runners following the final declarations for the Group One at Newmarket on Friday.
Ollie Sangster’s juvenile impressed when making a winning debut at Newbury before getting the better of subsequent Moyglare Stud Stakes heroine Fallen Angel in the Listed Star Stakes at Sandown.
On the strength of that form, Shuwari was a hot favourite for the Rockfel Stakes a fortnight ago – and while she was no match for the dominant winner Carla’s Way, she was comfortably best of the rest.
She is reopposed by the third from that race, Ylang Ylang, who is second favourite at 11/4 and is one of two runners for Aidan O’Brien alongside 50/1 outsider Brilliant.
Coral’s David Stevens said: “Although she lost her unbeaten record when second in last month’s Rockfel Stakes, Shuwari finished one place ahead of Ylang Ylang that day, and is favoured to confirm those placings in Friday’s Group One.”
Irish hopes are also carried by the Noel Meade-trained Caught U Looking, who supplemented a striking maiden win at Leopardstown with victory in the Group Three Weld Park Stakes at the Curragh last month (pictured below).

Ralph Beckett steps Sandown scorer Classical Song up in class and also saddles Ascot victor Seaward, while Frankie Dettori is booked to partner Michael Bell’s dual Lingfield winner Ambiente Amigo.
The small but select field is completed by Andrew Balding’s See The Fire, last seen chasing home Darnation in the May Hill Stakes at Doncaster.
Kevin Philippart de Foy’s Inquisitively, Balding’s Flora Of Bermuda and Midnight Affair from Richard Fahey’s yard are among 15 juveniles in contention for the Group Three Newmarket Academy Godolphin Beacon Project Cornwallis Stakes.
Group Three honours are also up for grabs in an intriguing renewal of the Godolphin Lifetime Care Oh So Sharp Stakes, which sees Beckett’s Skellet lock horns with Charlie Appleby’s Dance Sequence and the George Boughey-trained Chic Colombine, who bids for a fifth successive win.
The Group Two Thoroughbred Industry Employee Awards Challenge Stakes has attracted a six-strong field, with John and Thady Gosden’s Audience taken on by Richard Hannon’s high-class pair of Chindit and Shouldvebeenaring, Kieran Cotter’s Matilda Picotte, the Charlie Hills-trained Pogo and Joe Murphy’s Lord Massusus.
