Noble Truth (Fr) | Horse Racing Free Tips

Saturday's G3 Jersey S. had a familiar feel, with last year's winning combination Charlie Appleby and William Buick again prevailing with Noble Truth (Fr) (Kingman {GB}). Successful in the Listed Flying Scotsman S. and runner-up in the G1 Prix Jean-Luc Lagardere last term, the 4-1 favourite who was last seen registering a six-length win in Newmarket's Listed King Charles II S. over this seven-furlong trip Apr. 29 was out in front again from the break as he had been there. Passed for a period two out, the €450,000 Arqana August graduate was back in command heading to the furlong pole and stayed on strongly to score by a length from the slow-starting Find (GB) (Frankel {GB}), with Dubai Poet (GB) (Lope de Vega {Ire}) a neck away in third. “I've been looking for a horse for the Golden Eagle at Rosehill and he might be one for that,” Appleby said.

Godolphin jockey William Buick, who was slated to ride the Jan. 21 G2 Al Fahidi Fort hero Naval Crown (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) in the G3 1351 Turf Sprint on the Saturday of the Saudi Cup meeting, has tested positive for Covid and will be off his mounts in Riyadh on Saturday. Also due to ride Siskany (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}) in the G3 Longines Red Sea Turf H., Noble Truth (Fr) (Kingman {GB}) in the G3 Saudi Derby and Copano Kicking (Spring At Last) in the G3 Riyadh Cup Sprint, Buick missed several rides at Meydan on Friday, as well. In Friday's G3 Dubai Millennium S., Buick had been booked for Star Safari (GB) (Sea The Stars {Ire}), but Andrea Atzeni finished second aboard the Godolphin runner instead.

For his Saudi Cup mounts, James Doyle will deputise for Buick on Naval Crown and Siskany, while Frankie Dettori has been called up to ride Noble Truth. In place of Doyle on Happy Power (Ire) (Dark Angel {Ire}) in the 1351 Cup Sprint is David Egan. The regular rider of 2021 Saudi Cup victor Mishriff (Ire) (Make Believe {GB}), Egan also picks up the ride on Copano Kicking for Buick in the Riyadh Dirt Sprint.

Ginobili (Munnings) will be forced to miss the Sprint after emerging from his second gallop at King Abdulaziz unsatisfactorily. Trainer Richard Baltas told Daily Racing Form that the 5-year-old was lame in his left for, but that the first set of X-rays taken were negative. Results of a second set of images were pending and Baltas surmised that Ginobili would undergo a nuclear scan upon his return to America.
