Heading to Saturday's G1 Sky Bet City Of York Stakes with little to prove, Godolphin's Notable Speech (Dubawi) added another string to his bow with a sixth top-level triumph tackling this seven-furlong trip for the first time.Always comfortable tracking Marvelman (Invincible Spirit) under William Buick, the 9-4 favourite swooped approaching the furlong pole and drew away impressively to score by 2 3/4 lengths. Lake Forest (No Nay Never) was second, a short head in front of Marvelman.“He's come into his own over the last couple of weeks,” Charlie Appleby explained. “With the ground as it is, we decided to ride him more prominently than usual but Will [Buick] knows the horse inside out and once I could see that he hadn't thrown the kitchen sink at him, there was never going to be a horse that could pick him up. What's lovely is that he's shown his versatility on different ground and you might get that question mark at Keeneland. He will go straight there now.”Six Group 1s!Notable Speech flies on his first start at 7f and proves all class in the £600,000 @SkyBet City Of York Stakes @yorkracecourse @WilliamBuickX | @godolphin pic.twitter.com/uuAe1i3RH3— Racing TV (@RacingTV) August 22, 2026The post Notable Speech Dazzles In The City Of York, BC Mile Next appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
