Vandeni 7/4 FAV in Coral-Eclipse Racing Odds
Heading up the market for this high-class renewal is French raider VADENI who has rapidly been on the up.
As the 7/4 favourite, he warrants big respect in Coral-Eclipse tips for Saturday* (odds recorded at 18:28 GMT on July 1st, 2022 at Coral).
Vadeni is seeking a hattrick as the colt smashed the field that he was up against at Chantilly last time out.
It was such an eye-catching finish that he delivered in the Prix du Jockey Club, pulling clear by five lengths.
He looked as if he still had something in the tank as well.
Vadeni has been supplemented for Saturday’s run and looks like the one to beat.
Given the level of opposition that he will face on Saturday, this is going to be a tougher assignment for Vadeni.
But he has every chance of making his presence felt if he’s in the same mood.
Bay Bridge looks for a bounce-back
The hot unbeaten record for BAY BRIDGE was unravelled last time out when he couldn’t get his nose in front at Royal Ascot.
It was a runner-up spot for him in the Prince of Wales’s Stakes 17 days ago, having gone as the favourite.
Bay Bridge is a threat here though as he has proven himself plenty of times.
There was a course and distance win for him here in the Brigadier Gerard for example. Bay Bridge knocked over a competitive field in that one.
The conditions may well suit him a little better on Saturday and is 7/2 in Coral-Eclipse tips* (odds recorded at 18:28 GMT on July 1st, 2022 at Coral).
Native Trail steps up
A proven 1m powerhouse, NATIVE TRAIL takes on this longer trip on Saturday with some interest.
He went undefeated on his first five starts, including his reappearance run this season.
Native Trails had a winning streak that ended in the 2000 Guineas when he was runner-up to his stablemate Coroebus.
But Native Trail was back to winning ways on his following, scoring at the Curragh 42 days ago.
He has the quality to rattle the rest of the competition.
Native Trail is a current 3/1 quote in Coral-Eclipse odds* (odds recorded at 18:28 GMT on July 1st, 2022 at Coral).
Alenquer not to be underestimated
It has been two wins in three runs for ALENQUER this season. He has shown a great attitude as well.
Trained by Willie Mullins, Alenquer dug out a great victory in the Tattersalls Gold Cup on his latest run.
That was only by a neck as he stuck in there to dig it out. The 7/1 shot has been an improved model this year* (odds recorded at 18:28 GMT on July 1st, 2022 at Coral).
Can Mishriff return to top form?
There was a disappointing reappearance for MISHRIFF as he completely misfired in the Saudi Cup in February.
He has been refreshed since then and is not to be counted out of this. Mishriff has won in the Group 1 contest.
It’s been three successes for him at the top level.
The pick of those came in August when he took the Juddmonte at York.
The conditions weren’t right in either of his two races after that. While he is out at 8/1, Mishriff is a shortlist contender in Coral-Eclipse tips* (odds recorded at 18:28 GMT on July 1st, 2022 at Coral).
Lord North looks to get back on track
LORD NORTH is the big 25/1 outsider in Saturday’s Coral-Eclipse odds* (odds recorded at 18:28 GMT on July 1st, 2022 at Coral).
He did score earlier this season but was never in the contest on his latest run.
That was in the Prince of Wales’s Stakes at Royal Ascot. He was pretty much out of it at the start.
The gelding has potential and is probably looking to get back on track more than anything in this.
Predictions & Tips for Coral-Eclipse Racing Odds
This is a high-class renewal for sure. The first selection for Coral-Eclipse tips is BAY BRIDGE at 7/2* (odds recorded at 18:28 GMT on July 1st, 2022 at Coral).
The conditions weren’t in his favour at Royal Ascot on his latest, so the course and distance winner can get back on track on Saturday.
MISHRIFF is not to be underestimated, despite two blips since winning the Juddmonte.
Again, excuses can be made and as an 8/1 shot, Mishriff can be a player* (odds recorded at 18:28 GMT on July 1st, 2022 at Coral).
The final selection is VADENI who does look like a very exciting colt. The way he won at Chantilly was superb and he warrants respect as the 7/4 FAV* (odds recorded at 18:28 GMT on July 1st, 2022 at Coral). But this is tougher.
