Best From The West - May 27

Racing switches to Belmont on Saturday and the Durrant and Miller trained Sweet Ora appears well placed to return to the winner's stall in the third event.

Although safely held behind Caipirinha two back, Sweet Ora bounced right back to form last start when only narrowly edged out at Ascot.

Admittedly the Lindsey Smith trained Madassa sets a decent standard at the top of the weights, however Sweet Ora certainly gets her chance down in the weights.

In six attempts at Belmont, Sweet Ora has won four including two minor placings.

The drop back to 1000m should also suit, in 11 attempts she has won five including a further three minor placings.

From the inside draw she looks to receive all the favours and presents good value at her current quote of 11-2.

Johnston-Porter has placed in both attempts aboard Sweet Ora and she is certainly expected to make her presence felt.

The Team Williams trained Queen Bey broke through for her maiden win in impressive fashion at Ascot last start and appears capable of taking that next step in the fifth event.

An eye catcher over 1200m on debut, Queen Bey clearly relished the step up in trip last start, beating home three subsequent winners — Elsa's Tribe (2nd), Rosie Red Dress (3rd) and Shadow Boxer(7th).

Admittedly she steps up sharply in grade, however she is a filly with plenty of promise and is certainly worth an each-way ticket.

Winning rider Glenn Smith sticks aboard and she shapes as one of the main contenders.
