Exciting Saturday Racing Action (USA, 2025)

This Saturday promises a thrilling lineup of races across various venues, featuring domestic events at Chester, Lingfield, and Newton Abbot, followed by an array of exciting races in the United States, all broadcast live on Sky Sports Racing.

2:40 PM Chester – A Showdown in the Virgin Bet Chester Stakes

The marquee event at the Roodee is the Virgin Bet Chester Stakes, prominently featuring Tabletalk, who will compete against Alsakib and others.

Tabletalk, trained by Tom Clover, returns after a six-week hiatus, following a third-place finish in the John Smith’s Silver Cup Stakes, where he fell short against Al Qareem. Despite not winning in over a year, this will be his first venture into Listed class since last October, and it could be the perfect opportunity for a comeback.

On a path to redemption, Alsakib aims to bounce back after a lackluster performance at York in June, where he struggled with the swift ground conditions. However, he’s shown impressive form at Chester in the past, winning here in the Ormonde Stakes, positioning him as a contender for the afternoon.

Prydwen is also seeking to return to form after a year without a win in 2025 following a successful 2024. He previously finished down the rankings in the Copper Horse Stakes at Royal Ascot, and supporters are hoping for a revival of his prior capabilities.

4:52 PM Deauville – Anticipation in the Grand Prix de Deauville

In Deauville, Sibayan makes an appearance after winning the Prix Maurice de Nieuil at ParisLongchamp last month. With a growing reputation under trainer Francis-Henri Graffard, he leads a competitive field in the Group Two Lucien Barriere Grand Prix de Deauville.

Despite carrying a penalty for his recent victory, Sibayan’s progressive record suggests there is still untapped potential.

Marquisat showed promise in his return to Group Three racing at Deauville, swiftly overcoming competitors, and brings significant experience, having previously finished close in the Hong Kong Vase.

New Ground, recognized for his eye-catching performance in the Epsom Derby, faced challenges in the Grand Prix de Paris but managed to outpace re-opposing Uther. Connections believe there’s much more to reveal in his talent.

Uther, a half-brother to the eminent Sosie, follows up a solid effort at ParisLongchamp with this race, having previously chased Marquisat in a close contest. He’s known to possess the ability to excel further.

Supporting the feature race is the strong contingent of Casapueblo and Sunway, both of whom should not be overlooked if they deliver top performances.

4:30 PM Newton Abbot – Danny Mullins and Feud Team Up

At Newton Abbot, Danny Mullins makes an infrequent appearance, riding Feud in the Aubrey Loze Memorial Handicap Hurdle. Even though Feud hasn’t quite matched expectations on the flat, he has fared better over obstacles, showcasing a solid record with Mullins that makes him a serious competitor for trainer Richard O’Brien.

Al Sayah, another course winner, carries a consistent record, having placed in the top three in 9 of his past 10 outings and recently showing strong form at Cartmel.

D Day Arvalenreeva aims for a return to winning ways, with fresh victories from Balkardy and Queens Venture adding intrigue to this well-matched race.
