CONDOTTI (4.15, NAP) can keep up one of the hottest win streaks of the high summer with a first victory at Ffos Las today.
His trainer Hugo Palmer has sent out 15 winners during July and August including, in the last eight days, Group wins at Ascot and Goodwood and a Listed triumph at Chester on Sunday with the track’s winningest horse Roman Dragon. The selection showed first signs of promise when second in a Haydock maiden last October after which he was gelded.

He didn’t resume until June when in two starts he finished fourth at Newbury and a third over today’s course and distance, beaten three quarters of a length.
The winner of that race Narmar has continued to run well and the fourth Golden Thorn scored at Windsor next time. Hollie Doyle is a positive booking.
It should be all poetry in motion for PERCY SHELLEY (7.45) who returns to 2m with every chance of opening his account in Britain at Newbury.
He has been winless for both David O’Meara and James Owen but has run consistently well since moving to Newmarket.
He ran his best race yet at Chester last month, going down by half a length to a Sir Mark Prescott improver, and though he has gone up another 2lb, his turn cannot be far off.
