Three horses who take the eye tonight

This evening's racing comes from Fairyhouse, Bath and Kempton, and with racing kicking off at 5.50 on the Flat in Ireland and finishing at 9.10 at Kempton on the all-weather, there is plenty of time to back a few winners. Here we pick one horse to watch from each venue.

Pursuing The Dream
6.00 Bath

With Royal Ascot now in the rear-view mirror, there is the chance to see how strong the juvenile form is, and this filly can help boost the the Queen Mary.

Although still a maiden, Pursuing The Dream was sixth in the Group 2 and if successful, would be the first winner to come out of the Queen Mary. Mamba Noire, who was behind Pursuing The Dream at Ascot has since come out finished third in a Group 3 at the Curragh.

Realtra
6.50 Fairyhouse

When Roger Varian sends horses to Ireland, he usually comes back with a heavier wallet.

Nezwaah was his most recent success when taking the Pretty Polly last weekend, and now he attempts to claim another Group race with this mare.

Third in a sales race at the track in 2014, the five-year-old won on All-Weather Finals day at Lingfield and is a good traveller, having also scored at Deauville.

Blue On Blue
8.40 Kempton

Ryan Moore is always an interesting jockey booking, and he does not often team up with John Gosden.

A winner last time out at Yarmouth over 7f, the colt drops back to six for the first time. It should suit on pedigree, as he is a brother to Nemoralia, and Moore has a 23 per cent strike-rate for the trainer (seven from 31) for the last five seasons.
