Racing: Names to watch in '93
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

(Trainer in brackets)
TAOS (John Gosden). Progressive colt by super-dad Sadler's Wells. Unbeaten in three starts as two- year-old. Decent value Derby bet.
BARATHEA (Luca Cumani). Sadler's Wells again. Won prestigious Houghton Stakes at Newmarket from useful Storm Canyon. Unbeaten in two.
SUMOTO (Geoff Wragg). Beat high-class Sayyedati in informative Halifax Stakes at Ascot, but had training problems. Said to be coming back well.
TENBY (Henry Cecil). Tough and classy colt, won Grand Criterium at Longchamp on Arc weekend. Has progressed well over the winter.
BEGGARMAN THIEF (John Gosden). Probably not top-class but improving steadily. The type to run up a sequence.
SAYYEDATI (Clive Brittain). Saw off the brilliant Lyric Fantasy in the Cheveley Park Stakes, the two- year-old fillies' championship. Big, tough filly, sure to succeed again in 1993.
OLDER HORSES
UNDERWATER (Roger Charlton). Dark horse. Highly regarded last spring but didn't appear on the track. May make amends as a four- year-old.
ZINAAD (Michael Stoute). By Derby winner Shirley Heights out of Oaks winner Time Charter. Missed early part of last season but should pay to follow now.
MUHTARRAM (John Gosden). Fourth in the 2,000 Guineas and fifth in the Derby, but disappeared subsequently. Stays in training and should excel over a mile and a quarter.
MAGIC RING (Paul Cole). Ultra- fast two-year-old in 1991 but suffered setbacks last season. May re- emerge as the leading sprinter this year.
