Brighton-trainer Stuart Gandy has earned a reputation as a master of early-season two-year-olds, so it’s no surprise he will saddle up one of the main fancies in Sunday’s Listed Kevin Sharkie Elwick Stakes (1100m).

He may be a 3yo who has just won his fourth race but Cornelian Bay looms as a horse for the future. It’s not how many races he has won but the way he goes about it. At both his starts this campaign, Cornelian Bay ($4.60 to $3.40) has looked susceptible but he’s found a way, mainly through his explosive burst of speed.
