Below you will find our horse racing form guide for our top three picks in this year’s Doncaster Mile.
#1 More Joyous
- Career: 18-14-0-1
- 5th race this prep
- More Joyous has won 12 of her past 13 starts and is on track to remain unbeaten throughout her entire current preparation. She has put in two exhibition style gallops to win her last two races against quality fields and will have to be very unlucky not to win here.
#9 Aloha
- Career: 18-8-3-3
- 4th race this prep
- Aloha’s winning streak came to an end in the George Ryder Stakes last start, however, she still ran an excellent race to finish fourth against the boys. She will carry 5.5kgs less here which will do her the world of good against this quality field.
#10 Ilovethiscity
- Career: 12-4-2-1
- 5th race this prep
- Ilovethiscity has drawn very wide for this race in barrier 17, although he should be okay as long as he is able to find some cover. He has won two out of his three attempts at this distance and is sure to be in the finish granted he gets into a reasonable position.
