Crowded House looks worth an each-way interest at a tasty price

As a horse regularly placed at the very top level, Spanish Moon is a most worthy favourite for this afternoon’s Group 2 Princess Of Wales’ Stakes at Newmarket.

The last time Sir Michael Stoute’s entire dropped back to this level, he ran out a gutsy winner of what was a modest running of the Prix Foy at Longchamp.

Subsequently, he was comfortably outpointed when fourth behind stable-companion Conduit in the Breeders’ Cup Turf and then touched off when favourite for the Hong Kong Vase at Sha Tin. He’s certainly a horse that runs well fresh and went close in yet another Group 1 race when third behind Dar Re Mi in the Dubai Sheema Classic at Meydan in March.
