ITV Racing Tips: Ryan Moore can land bet365 Mile for Gosdens and Godolphin

The final afternoon of the July Festival at Newmarket takes place on Saturday and the Group 1 July Cup is the centrepiece at Headquarters.

A field of 15 contenders were declared for the feature race, one of six live races from Newmarket to be shown on Saturday's mammoth ITV Racing offering which also boasts four from York and two from Ascot for a dozen in total.

We're focused on the action at Newmarket, with three tips for the terrestrial action on the July Course.

Tip 1: Miss Nightfall (Newmarket 14:12) @ 3/1

Nine go to post for the TrustATrader 20th Anniversary Fillies' Handicap over 7f and MISS NIGHTFALL can bag the prize for James Fanshawe and Saffie Osborne.

The daughter of Sands Of Mali was a typically luckless Goodwood runner-up in May under this rider after encountering traffic woes.

She went to Royal Ascot for the Sandringham since and Oisin Murphy perhaps set her too much a challenge under a very patient ride at the back of that 25-strong field.

She travelled well as favourite and came home strongly but they ended up on the completely wrong side of the track and the action all unfolded on the far side running rail, as Miss Nightfall charged home to lead the group up the centre.

She's just 1lb higher in the ratings, has a nice weight of 8st 13lb and the hold-up tactics should be much easier deployed in this contest with Bountiful, Royal Velvet and Shallow likely to ensure an honest gallop.

Tip 2: Fifth Column (Newmarket 15:25) @ 5/2

A mile is the trip for this Class 2 handicap and it's a rather paltry turnout with just seven runners. Bedouin Prince is full of promise for Charlie Appleby after wins at Doncaster (1m2f, good) and here on turf and he could easily be unbeaten, though an opening mark of 100 is taxing enough.

FIFTH COLUMN has that little bit more experience and looked well ahead of the assessor when making a winning handicap debut at Sandown (1m, good) in April.

He went straight to Royal Ascot and led home his group in the Britannia Stakes up the middle of the track, while the principals raced up the stands side rail with a distinct advantage.

On that evidence, this mark of 92 is within his reach and the first-time cheekpieces are retained now, while the booking of Ryan Moore is another major positive for a race that lacks the depth of that Ascot event.

Tip 3: Big Mojo (Newmarket 16:35) @ 12/1

The July Cup has attracted a decent if not vintage field, with last month's Group 1-winning sprinters from Royal Ascot the notable absences in Time For Sandals and Lazzat.

Last year's 2000 Guineas winner Notable Speech is the class act in the field, assuming he handles the drop to sprinting, though he also has to prove he retains his very best ability. 

The mare Believing could bounce back to contend, while Flora Of Bermuda and Aidan O'Brien's Whistlejacket make the shortlist.

A chance is given to another three-year-old, though, the Mick Appleby-trained BIG MOJO. 

The Mohaather colt looked as good as ever early on this season, winning a Commonwealth Cup Trial at Ascot and running well in the Group 2 Sandy Lane at Haydock.

He didn't get much luck at Royal Ascot in the Commonwealth Cup itself and could have a bigger effort in him with his generous allowance now as he looks to become the fifth 3YO July Cup winner in nine years.
