Newsboy’s ITV4 racing tips from York and Newbury, plus selections from all of Friday's other meetings

SISKANY is fancied to gain a first victory at Group 2 level by beating six opponents for the Boodles Yorkshire Cup (3.35) at York today.

Charlie Appleby’s son of Dubawi made a winning return for 2023 with a two-length call in the Group 3 Nad Al Sheba Trophy at Meydan in February.

And he came within a neck of scoring in this afternoon’s grade when worn down by Broome in the Dubai Gold Cup on the Dubai World Cup undercard the following month.

That was Siskany’s first attempt at two miles and coming back two furlongs in distance here – William Buick’s mount is unbeaten at a mile and three-quarters – won’t be a problem.

My selection is 3lb better off with his rival from Dubai and revenge is at hand.

After making the perfect start to her career at Ascot 16 days ago, QUEEN FOR YOU has plenty going for her in the Listed Oaks Farm Stables Fillies’ Stakes (2.25).

A daughter of Kingman and the 2012 Coronation Stakes heroine Fallen For You, the John and Thady Gosden-tutored bay beat Copy Artist by a couple of lengths on her racecourse bow – and there is plenty more where that came from.

The Gosdens and Rab Havlin can complete a double with ZIRYAB in the Darley Novices’ Stakes (4.10).

Amo Racing’s PERSIAN DREAMER looked a smart youngster when triumphant at Newmarket’s Craven meeting and should remain unbeaten in the Listed Clipper EBF Marygate Fillies’ Stakes (1.50), while EETEE looks well treated in the Knights Solicitors Handicap (3.00).

At Newbury, TUXEDO JUNCTION gets the vote to reverse last month’s course-and-distance running with Mustazeed to lift the Unibet Handicap (2.05).
