DANCE BIDS FOR ANOTHER WELD SUCCESS

Dermot Weld will bid to add to his impressive list of overseas successes when Pine Dance lines up in the Secretariat Stakes tomorrow night.

Pine Dance, to be ridden by Eddie Ahern, is only 5-1 to land another big prize for Weld, having won the American Derby on this course four weeks ago.

Aidan O`Brien`s Ciro (Kinane) is also quoted at 5-1 for the Grade One contest after his third place in the Irish Derby last month.

Slickly and Running Stag bid to end a 15-year wait for British success in the Arlington Million.

Godolphin`s Slickly is third favourite with local layers for the race, which no horse trained in Britain has landed since Teleprompter scored for Bill Watts in 1985.

Fifth place on Peter Davies in 1993 is jockey Frankie Dettori`s best effort from three previous rides in the race, which has not been staged for the past two years due to the temporary closure of Arlington racecourse.

Despite being the biggest prize-money earner in tomorrow`s seven-runner field, Philip Mitchell`s Running Stag (Shane Sellers) is an outsider for the Million - which was the world`s first million-dollar race when launched in 1981.

Also in the line-up for the third leg of the Emirates world series of racing are British 'ex-pats' Bienamado, Chester House and Manndar.

The trio were formerly trained respectively by Peter Chapple-Hyam, Henry Cecil and Luca Cumani - who won the Grade One event with Tolomeo in 1983.

Aidan O`Brien`s Alluring (Michael Kinane) is a 20-1 shot, though she was reportedly in season when disappointing last time out and is reckoned by exercise rider Matthew Salaman to be 'in the best form I`ve ever seen her.'

Gerard Butler`s Compton Bolter (Alex Solis) is the 30-1 outsider of an eight-runner field, having managed only fourth of five in the Prix Eugene Adam at Deauville last time out.

Bill Mott`s King Cugat (Jerry Bailey) is 4-5 favourite to keep the prize at home, having won the Arlington Classic on this course last month.

Dettori`s Mick Ryan-trained mount Diamond White is rated a 10-1 chance locally for the Beverly D Stakes on the same card.

French raider America (Olivier Doleuze) is reckoned a more serious threat and has been made 7-2 second favourite for a Grade One race her trainer Criquette Head won with Hatoof in 1994.

Bobby Frankel`s Happyanunoit (Brice Blanc) is 7-5 favourite for the 9 ? furlong event, having won the Beverly Hills Handicap at Hollywood Park last time.
