2023 Cornwallis Stakes Tips
The majority of the field lining up in the Cornwallis Stakes are regarded as having a lively chance of securing a victory in this race. Flora Of Bermuda has only won one of six outings this season, although the Andrew Balding-trained charge is among the highest-rated runners in the field, with the horse finishing second to Big Evs at Doncaster last time out.
That was in the Group 2 Flying Childers Stakes, with the horse performing well over five furlongs on soft ground, while the filly won a Fillies’ Conditions Stakes at Goodwood before underwhelming in the Sky Bet Lowther Stakes at York Racecourse. She has plenty of opposition to beat here including Inquisitively.
The latter is trained by Kevin Philippart De Foy and there was a success last time out when obliging in the Julia Graves Roses Stakes at York Racecourse, with the horse claiming a two length victory over favourite Purosangue. There was also a solid run in the Windsor Castle Stakes at the Royal Ascot meeting where third place was managed in a big field.
Cherry Blossom should also go well and Aidan O’Brien’s charge has regularly been hitting the frame this season. This is a return to Newmarket after finishing fourth in the Juddmonte Cheveley Park Stakes, with this six-furlong encounter for fillies perhaps proving too far for a runner who will have less distance to travel this time around.
