Farringdon: Naval Commander on course for victory at Newmarket

IT’S another massive Saturday of racing with two Group One events, a Group Two, and of course the big betting race of the day in the Cambridgeshire at Newmarket.

The latter is always an interesting contest, but like last year the draw and pace bias can play a major part in the outcome of this nine-furlong cavalry charge.

There does seem to be plenty of pace right across the track, and to be honest it would be easy to pick half a dozen against the field and still not hit the first four.
