Top Horses to Follow on Day 3 of Ebor Festival
NAP of the Day (14:25) - Point Lonsdale
Our NAP of the Day for the third day of the York Ebor Festival, Point Lonsdale was a promising winner at Chester, this horse wasn't outclassed in Group 1 company. With a longer trip to his advantage, he's a strong contender. Given the recent success of Ryan Moore and Aidan O'Brien, he's a likely winner.

Iroko
7/4
Age: 6
Weight: 11-8
Days: 225
A talented hurdler who won the 2023 renewal of the Martin Pipe at the Cheltenham Festival.
Went chasing last season and improved again, winning very nicely at Warwick before coming 5th in the Turners’ Novice Chase and 2nd in the Mildmay Novice Chase.
Returns to action this season in much calmer waters and should get back to winning ways.

Win Double - Point Lonsdale (2.25 York) & The Strikin Viking (3.00 York) both to win
The Strikin Viking is a proven performer over this course and distance, with impressive past results. He's a strong contender based on his recent form.
Point Lonsdale has demonstrated exceptional talent, winning easily at Chester and performing well in Group 1 races. With a longer distance to his advantage, he's another top pick, especially considering the winning streak of his jockey and trainer.
Dark Horse (16:10) - Ambiente Amigo
Previously competing in top-tier races, Ambiente Amigo is likely to benefit from a drop in class. Despite not winning recently, she has performed well and offers value at a high odds. With Rossa Ryan riding for the first time, she could surprise.
