SPICE TRIAL: Spicy Marg would be the first juvenile to win the Group One since 2007

- By Melissa Jones

HARRY BENTLEY wants a piece of the action on Spicy Marg in the Coolmore Wootton Bassett Nunthorpe Stakes today.

The Hong Kong-based jockey has put his summer holiday on hold to make 8st 2lb for his big-race ride at York.

On the menu in the buildup is a couple of chicken salads, a daily coffee and plenty of water for hydration.

“I’ve been conscious of my diet for a few days to get down from 8st 7lb,” said 5ft 7in Bentley, originally from the Cotswolds.

“It’s worth it for a chance in a Group One.”
