2024 Park Stakes Preview
Kinross finds himself the favourite for the Park Stakes despite an indifferent season where he has failed to build on his two Group 2 wins last season. There is no reason to expect a reversal of the form that saw him finish 3rd when trying to retain the Lennox Stakes in his last race. At 9/4 he’s underpriced.
Lead Artist won a Group 3 at Glorious Goodwood in August and looks a decent prospect for his first race win over 7 furlongs. However, he’s also lacking in the value department trading a touch higher than the favourite and inviting an all-or-nothing back bet.
Poet Master won a Group 2 race in Ireland over 7 furlongs in July, adding that to another win achieved at Newmarket in April. He had an indifferent run at Haydock in May, but with a previous Group 2 win over 7 furlongs to his credit and a price of 11/2 he looks the best option in this field.
