Ladbrokes Bonus for Brigadier Gerard Stakes

 

 It looks as though Godolphin will enter this weekend's Brigadier Gerard Stakes with just a single entry as Dubai World Cup winner Monterrosso was withdrawn today from contention for the Thursday fixture at Sandown.

Saeed Bin Suroor's Hunter's Light gets Frankie Dettori on the day as the pair team up to tackle a tough 1m2f distance in this Group 3 encounter. With the top earner of the year now removed from the reckoning for this one, all eyes appear to be on the Queen's runner Carlton House, who lines up with a price tag of around 8/11 with Ladbrokes.

A number of bookmakers immediately took him into odds-on once the withdrawal of Monterrosso was confirmed. It would have been his first outing since finishing at the top of a Godolphin 1-2 on World Cup Day.

Carlton House, a four-year-old son of Street Cry, has been off-track since the Curragh last June when finishing two lengths behind Treasure Beach with a disappointing fourth place finish in the Dubai Duty Free Irish Derby. He had been sent off at a 5/4 price tag that day and has been back on the shelf since then.

Prior to that he had finished third from thirteen in the 2011 Epsom Derby.

John Gosden's Colombian is taking some money now that we're down to a mere six entries and he opened his account for the season at first time of asking over the very same course and distance about a month ago. He beat out the likes of Poet, Twice over and World Domination as well as Sos Brillante, who also lines up for this one, albeit at a 200/1 price.

I'm a Dreamer is priced out at an 11/2 and he's a talented selection coming out of the David Simcock yard but he just really hasn't pulled off a win in a while. Well-bred on the dam's side, out of a Sadler's Wells mare, which gives him real claims to succeed at this distance.
