16:45 York - 20 August 2025 - Results - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

This is wide open but Michael Dods' NOVAMAY arrives firmly on the up and is taken to complete a four-timer with this return to the minimum trip also a likely plus for this speedy filly. Ralph Beckett's improving Galaxy Zoo heads the list of dangers in her hat-trick bid, although a whole host of others need factoring in too, among them Fluorescence, Sarahmae, Woolhampton and Luna A Inbhir Nis. Lady Roxby, Forager and Tiva complete the shortlist in this highly competitive sprint.

  1. NOVAMAY
