Salisbury has an absolute mouth-watering card on Thursday, with the highlight being a Group Three race over a mile, with some highly impressive entries matching the standards of the card. Kudos to the racecourse for putting on such an exciting card for a traditionally poor day for racing.

GILDED FRAME ran a very good initial outing at Glorious Goodwood to suggest he should have learnt a lot from that run, and is entitled to come on a tonne. Marcus Tregoning and Hayley Turner teamed up to have a two year old maiden winner on Wednesday, and if the money comes for the colt, he should be taken even more seriously. He will be likely overpriced due to the flashy and respected connections opposing in the race, with the Hannon, Fahey and Osbourne stables represented.

MEXICAN MICK stepped up on his debut to show even greater promise when third of ten at Doncaster, losing by just under two lengths, when staying on well. The form of that race has worked out particularly well, and with the three year old bow gelded, he should be even sharper. Jockey of the moment Jack Doyle takes the ride, and is enjoying a terrific 50% strike rate riding for Ian Williams, with two winners from four runners.

TRADE COMMISIONER is another home bred for Lady Rothschild, and I was fortunate to see the gelding absolutely hack up on Eclipse Day at Sandown, and when you consider the four year old has only raced five times, is unexposed and going the right way, he looks a very good thing in the Group Three Sovereign Stakes. The form of the last race, a class two handicap, has worked out incredibly well too. Fulbright, sixth that day, won three straight races, including The Betfred Mile, and Field of Dream, seventh, won The Betfair International Stakes. It looks rock solid.

The mile and three quarters race looks a really competitive affair, and plenty with live chances. Grandad Mac is a horse I’ve tipped up and done my money on before, as he has finished second in three of his last four runs. Suzi’s a Class Act runs under a penalty, but could be asking a lot, running off top weight. MADAME ST CLAIR looks to be coming into her own, and the further the trip, the further she should improve. Stepped up to a mile and a half saw her win well, in a seller at Lingfield, coming away to win by five lengths. That was followed up by almost defying a 8lb rise at Kempton, running on well behind a well backed favourite. She remains on the same mark, and will no doubt thrive stepping up once more, she is officially 4lb well in on ratings, due to go up next week.
