Neville Selwood Stakes – 2024

Track: Soft Weather: Fine

Zeyrek I was keen on the past few starts. Looks ready to win and gets the right race to do so. Serpentine can land up on the speed and give a bold kick against this lot. Renaissance Woman looks well placed from barrier 7 and can give this race a shake. Little Mix has been around the mark.

1. Zeyrek (4)

Was keen on him first up and had no luck. Should give this a shake from barrier 4 and won this race last year. Keen on his chances. He looks hard to beat here.

2. Serpentine (1)

Good last start win and gets upgraded if the track is suiting those on pace. Should make this a true staying test from barrier 1 and will be hard to beat.

3. Bois D’argent (9)

Tricky barrier but goes in the mix against these. Racing well and looks poised in this company. Major player.

4. Normandy Bridge (2)

Prefer others.

5. Hezashocka (11)

Can’t have.

6. Cadre Du Noir (3)

Going okay and has the class factor of this field. Goes in the mix.

7. United Nations (6)

Prefer others.

8. Marsabait (10)

This looks too tough.

9. Renaissance Woman (7)

Racing well and will enjoy this drop in grade. Well placed here and should prove hard to hold out against this lot. The odds seem around the right mark.

10. Little Mix (8)

Has been around the mark this prep and weighted well. Should give this a shake.

11. Decadent Tale (5)

Can’t have.
