There have been no tears from supporters of I Cried For You recently as the four-year-old has fired in a quick-fire double. It was just a week ago that James Given's charge completed his pair at Windsor and I Cried For You returns to the Thames side track tonight in an attempt to complete the treble in the Investec Guinness Flight Handicap.
It was also over this course and distance that the gelding showed signs of coming into form this season with a three-and-a-half-lengths fourth to Broughton's Turmoil, despite a poor draw.
He confirmed that potential on firm ground at Nottingham two weeks later beating Surprised by one and a half lengths and then, drawn 21 in a 22-runner field, returned to Windsor to deny Cold Climate by a quarter-length more.
Coming out of the 10 gate this time and under regular jockey Richard Hughes, I Cried For You can benefit from his favourite conditions and defy a 6lb penalty. Earlier, First Fantasy looks the pick in the Capel Cure Sharp Fillies' Handicap.
James Fanshawe's charge looked as though she was going to lose her maiden tag in her last outing at Yarmouth 11 days ago.
However, she idled after cruising to the front and was caught out by the tenacious Lady Jo who gained a one-and-a-half-length win.
Providing Ray Cochrane can hold her up until the last minute First Fantasy looks the one to be on today.
At Nottingham, the Tote Stakes (Showcase Handicap) looks a real puzzle.
The pick is Cloak Of Darkness to confirm superiority over Top Jem.
Zincalo looks to be coming into form for Clive Brittain and given the assistance of Gary Stevens can land the Great Yarmouth For Sponsorship Opportunities Maiden Stakes at the seaside track.
Daylight In Dubai can retrieve some of the costs of his long journey from David Nicholls' Thirsk base by taking the E.B.F. Hembleton Classified `95' Stakes.
