17:20 Newbury - 16 August 2025 - Results - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

A 3-y-o handicap packed full of potential with SKIMMER fancied to take another step forward. Harry Charlton's colt showed a smart turn of foot when making it 2-2 in novice company at Kempton 38 days ago and he remains open to above average improvement now his sights are set on handicaps. None of the quartet in opposition can be discounted however, with Fort George and Night Step possibly emerging as the chief threats.

  1. SKIMMER
  2. FORT GEORGE
  3. NIGHT STEP
