Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	7 1st (7) (14/1 -40%) Yakhabar	14 14/1(-40%)	(7) Yakhabar 14/1, Slowly away when beaten by 10 lengths in a handicap over 2m1f at Pontefract last time; tongue-tie fitted first time; massively down in trip; 13lb's lower than last winning mark; might be up against it here Below-form sixth in Pontefract h'cap ten days ago; tongue tied here with more required.
2	3 2nd (3) (6/4 +40%) Fiftyshadesaresdev	1.5 6/4(+40%)	(3) Fiftyshadesaresdev 6/4, Yet to win in thirty-four career starts; only beaten by a neck off the mark of 49 at Pontefract last time; could potentially be well handicapped now; a contender to go well in this contest Is 0-31 but good third for new yard at Pontefract latest; can make his presence felt.
3	2 3rd (2) (15/8 -36%) Parish Councillor	1.875 15/8(-36%)	(2) Parish Councillor 15/8, One win in fourteen career runs; did not get a clear run when beaten by 3/4 of a length off the mark of 57 over 10 furlongs at Redcar last time; up in trip here; creeping down the weights; a real threat in this race Best effort this year when second at Redcar 24 days ago; merits serious consideration.
4	1 4th (1) (7/2 +30%) Star Start	3.5 7/2(+30%)	(1) Star Start 7/2, Beaten by 10 lengths in a handicap at Doncaster last time; generally out of form at present; 3rd run since wind operation; on the same mark as when he last won; bit to find given his form is struggling at the moment Only sixth of seven in 1m4f Doncaster handicap 13 days ago but can bounce back.
5th	4 5th (4) (14/1 +13%) Mass Consumption	14 14/1(+13%)	(4) Mass Consumption 14/1, Zero wins in fourteen career runs; slowly away when down the field in a handicap over 8 furlongs at Musselburgh for most recent run; up in trip here; form has been a little off recently so probably best watched here Remains winless and he beat just one in 1m Musselburgh handicap 12 days ago.
6th	8 6th (8) (40/1 +0%) Raincloud	40 40/1(+0%)	(8) Raincloud 40/1, Ran to form but no match for useful winner when second beaten by 19 lengths in a novice hurdle over 2m1f at Cartmel latest; steadily progressive; back down in trip and running on the flat; bit to find here however Runner-up over hurdles at Cartmel 24 days ago but she's shown only poor form on the Flat.
7th	5 7th (5) (200/1 -100%) Elzour	200 200/1(-100%)	(5) Elzour 200/1, Zero victories in five career starts; has only beat two horses in his career; no worthwhile form; not proven at this trip; plenty more needed to even get close here Blinkered when last at Yarmouth latest; needs switch to h'caps to spark improvement.

PARISH COUNCILLOR bounced back to form when filling the runner-up spot at Redcar last month and he competes off an unchanged mark. If the five-year-old can produce a similar display, he could be the one to beat. Fiftyshadesaresdev finished a close third at Pontefract on his first appearance for this stable and he has to be considered. Star Start is another to keep an eye on.

This looks a very good opportunity for PARISH COUNCILLOR to resume winning ways on the back of a resurgent Redcar second last time out

14:15 Chelmsford City (Class 5) 10f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	2 1st (2) (13/8 +46%) Enthused	1.625 13/8(+46%)	(2) Enthused 13/8, Below par beaten 10l in a handicap at Newbury last time; went close prior; trainer in form; probably prefer further; handles Polytrack; must bounce back but danger if so Typically failed to back up his Brighton near-miss when well held last Thursday; capable.
2	6 2nd (6) (11/2 -22%) Palazzo Persico	5.5 11/2(-22%)	(6) Palazzo Persico 11/2, Below par fourth beaten 4 1/4l in a handicap over 12f at Beverley latest; cheekpieces first time; CD winner (2 of 3 career wins); lost way of late but big danger on pick of 2025 Currently 2-5 over C&D, latterly off a 5lb higher mark last winter; couldn't be ruled out.
3	5 3rd (5) (8/1 -45%) Bohemian Breeze	8 8/1(-45%)	(5) Bohemian Breeze 8/1, Below par second beaten 9l in a maiden hurdle over 2m at Huntingdon latest; not quite firing on Flat prior; conditions suit but bit better over further; in the mix Expensive to follow for two yards in the past year; can pull hard; cheekpieces return.
4	4 4th (4) (5/1 -67%) Mr Nugget	5 5/1(-67%)	(4) Mr Nugget 5/1, Ran to form beaten 3l off 62 over 12f at Lingfield last time; down in trip, possibly not ideal; handles Polytrack; might find trip a bit sharp but likely player Pulled hard last time and will want a good test down from 1m4f, which isn't certain.
5th	1 5th (1) (4/1 +11%) Early Morning Dew	4 4/1(+11%)	(1) Early Morning Dew 4/1, Below form comfortably held in a handicap hurdle over 2m at Southwell last time; competitive in two of four Flat runs this year; CD winner, 2 of 3 career wins; not most reliable but threat Dual C&D winner from four runs; has one of the more experienced jockeys up; player.
6th	7 6th (7) (50/1 +0%) Apache Canyon	50 50/1(+0%)	(7) Apache Canyon 50/1, Below par down the field in a handicap over 12f at Kempton most recent; generally out of form; down in trip, no issuer; below last winning mark and goes well here but bit to prove Poor in two starts for this yard; best efforts have come on Tapeta; not obviously fancied.
7th	3 7th (3) (9/1 +36%) Francesi	9 9/1(+36%)	(3) Francesi 9/1, Poor debut fourth beaten 54l in a novice hurdle over 2m at Fakenham latest; in fair form on Flat prior; conditions suit; big player On a long losing run; well treated now but others are more persuasive.

MR NUGGET finished a fair third over 1m4f at Lingfield on his most recent start and goes off an unchanged rating. The son of Oasis Dream can cope with this drop back in trip to record his second career success. Francesi made the frame over a mile at Lingfield on his latest effort on the Flat and a 1lb lower rating makes life easier, while Bohemian Breeze is another to watch out for.

Perhaps EARLY MORNING DEW will be able to notch a third C&D win, with Megan Jordan an obvious bonus, but no outcome would surprise.

14:30 Ascot (Class 1) 5f - 15 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	3 1st (3) (8/13 +62%) Charles Darwin	0.615385 8/13(+62%)	(3) Charles Darwin 8/13, Needed debut experience but two clearcut wins since, progressing well; top yard won this twice in last 10 runnings; brother to dual 6f Gr 1 2yo winner Blackbeard; strong claims. Has made all in his last two starts; not certain to get his own way but still respected.
2	16 2nd (16) (10/1 +17%) Wise Approach	10 10/1(+17%)	(16) Wise Approach 10/1, 1,000,000gns 2yo and half-brother to Perfect Power, who won this race in 2021; C&D debut winner before creditable fourth at York (6f); each-way possibilities back at 5f now. Made a winning debut over C&D before fourth behind First Legion at York.
3	14 3rd (14) (16/1 -33%) Sandal's Song	16 16/1(-33%)	(14) Sandal's Song 16/1, US-trained colt; won at Gulfstream Park (5f) on debut in May, since when he has changed ownership; James Doyle evidently prefers Naval Light. Qualified for this when winning on last month's Gulfstream debut; watch market.
4	2 4th (2) (100/1 -100%) Ameeq	100 100/1(-100%)	(2) Ameeq 100/1, Benefited from debut experience when winning a maiden at Nottingham last time; plenty more needed upped sharply in grade. Won at Nottingham on 2nd start but that form leaves him with plenty to find at this level.
5th	5 5th (5) (22/1 +0%) Comical Point	22 22/1(+0%)	(5) Comical Point 22/1, Promising start to career for his leading yard at Salisbury (5f; 17-2) last month; much more needed if he's to remain unbeaten, though. Made a winning debut at Salisbury last month but the form leaves him with a lot to find.
6th	1 6th (1) (7/1 +22%) Afjan	7 7/1(+22%)	(1) Afjan 7/1, Stayed on strongly for decisive debut success at Chantilly (5.5f) this month; hard to tie that form in with these but speedily-bred colt (dam second in the Queen Mary here) is respected. Won a newcomers' race at Chantilly this month and his RPR suggests performance was useful.
7th	8 7th (8) (50/1 -79%) Graft	50 50/1(-79%)	(8) Graft 50/1, In the frame in three starts before stepping up a bit to win 5f Listed race at Chantilly last time; the British-trained second is a good guide to that form and much more is needed here. Won a Chantilly Listed race last time but has raced only on ground softer than good.
8th	13 8th (13) (14/1 -250%) Naval Light	14 14/1(-250%)	(13) Naval Light 14/1, Yard won this last year; 360,000gns 2yo; split two useful and more experienced rivals at Beverley (5f) last month; high probability of improvement now; shortlisted. Runner-up in the same Beverley race in which last year's winner made a winning debut.
9th	10 9th (10) (50/1 +50%) Irish Fighter	50 50/1(+50%)	(10) Irish Fighter 50/1, Promising clear second on debut on Wolverhampton AW (20-1) last month; a lot more needed here. Runner-up on his Wolverhampton debut but unlikely to be winning this.
10th	7 10th (7) (11/1 +8%) First Legion	11 11/1(+8%)	(7) First Legion 11/1, 500,000gns 2yo; built on York debut success when second in 5f Listed race at Sandown last time; still looked a bit raw then and further progress likely now; each-way player. Won at York and runner-up in the National Stakes; stiff 5f should suit; high on the list.
11th	4 11th (4) (33/1 -50%) Clear Force	33 33/1(-50%)	(4) Clear Force 33/1, Yard won this last year; fourth in National Stakes (Listed) at Sandown latest; that suggests he's vulnerable here, for all that he might have done too much too soon latest. Finished just over 2l behind First Legion at Sandown three weeks ago; something to find.
12th	11 12th (11) (66/1 +0%) Lil Brother	66 66/1(+0%)	(11) Lil Brother 66/1, Fulfilled debut promise when winning at Nottingham (5f) last week; big jump forward needed and others preferred. Second and first in two starts, but needs to improve plenty to make an impact in this.
13th	9 13th (9) (33/1 -18%) Hey Tru Blue	33 33/1(-18%)	(9) Hey Tru Blue 33/1, 175,000gns 2yo; promising debut second at Leicester (6f; third decent winner since) last month; potential improver but this calls for significant step up. Runner-up on Leicester debut and the form has been franked; not ruled out each-way.
14th	6 14th (6) (100/1 +0%) Exclamation	100 100/1(+0%)	(6) Exclamation 100/1, Has shown more than enough to win a race, last time improved second at Chester (5f), but it's most unlikely to be this one. Placed in all three starts and the form of his last two has worked out well.
15th	15 15th (15) (66/1 +0%) Star Material	66 66/1(+0%)	(15) Star Material 66/1, Fulfilled previous promise when winning at Ripon (5f) this month; much more needed from this thrice-raced colt now. Has improved with each start and won at Ripon last time; will need to step up again.

Not one of the last 10 favourites managed to win this race, which doesn't bode well for Charles Darwin, who topped many ante post betting lists after building on his Curragh debut to register comfortable wins at Navan and Naas respectively. The son of No Nay Never has the hallmarks of being a class act and cannot be ignored. However, AFJAN posted a very encouraging time when he won over an extended 5f at Chantilly on his racecourse bow and the French-bred son of Mehmas has the potential to do better on a faster surface. First Legion, Naval Light and Comical Point are notable contenders with place claims.

The vote goes to FIRST LEGION who won well on his York debut before finishing runner-up in the National Stakes.

14:40 Ripon (Class 5) 6f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 1st (1) (6/4 +40%) Front Line Fury	1.5 6/4(+40%)	(1) Front Line Fury 6/4, Twice raced youngster; fourth beaten by 4 and a 1/2 lengths in a novice at Nottingham latest; third on debut at Yarmouth in May; cheek-pieces off today; could put his experience to good use here Promise in two 6f novices so far; drawn against the rail; leading contender.
2	3 2nd (3) (6/4 +40%) Lucky Hero	1.5 6/4(+40%)	(3) Lucky Hero 6/4, 52,000 euros yearling; beaten only by 5 lengths in a novice at Chester on debut when coming fifth of ten runners; will no doubt come on for the run; contender here Saturday's debut fifth at Chester (6f, soft) brings him right into the picture; contender.
3	4 3rd (4) (14/1 -75%) Sporting Light	14 14/1(-75%)	(4) Sporting Light 14/1, 40,000 euro yearling; beaten by 6 lengths in a maiden over 5 furlongs at Doncaster last time; up in trip here; very much looks the sort to improve with more racing; probably best watched here Improvement required on his two 5f runs but the new trip could help in that regard.
4	5 4th (5) (9/2 -80%) Ellusive Butterfly	4.5 9/2(-80%)	(5) Ellusive Butterfly 9/2, Yard has won last two running's of race which includes Line Of Force who won it on debut last year; 10 Feb; 30,000 euros Invincible Army filly; half-sister to smart 6 furlong horse Arabian Sun; top trainer; check the market with this one 30,000euros half-sister to three winners; dam a useful 2yo winner; likely type on paper.
5th	2 5th (2) (22/1 -83%) Isambard Kingdom	22 22/1(-83%)	(2) Isambard Kingdom 22/1, 115,000 gns yearling; well beaten when coming last of eleven in a novice at York on his only career start; trainer in form; however he has to improve a fair bit from his debut effort to land a blow here 66-1, last of 11 at York on debut (6f, good to firm); this is easier but needs a lot more.
6th	6 6th (6) (66/1 -65%) Twilight Dawn	66 66/1(-65%)	(6) Twilight Dawn 66/1, 1 Mar; £1,000 Twilight Son filly; half-sister to useful 5 furlong horse Dothan; dam useful at 5f as a 2yo; will probably need this experience here £1,000 yearling; half-sister to fair 5f winner Dothan; yard not known for 2yo success.

FRONT LINE FURY has shown a fair amount of ability in his two career starts, sporting first-time blinkers to finish fourth at Nottingham last time. The son of Kodi Bear looks to have been found a nice opportunity and can open his account. Lucky Hero lost two places inside the last furlong to finish fifth at Chester, but he could take a step forward to have a say. 30,000-euro purchase Ellusive Butterfly warrants a market check on her racecourse bow.

Ellusive Butterfly is a newcomer of note but Lucky Hero and FRONT LINE FURY have already shown some promise.

1	2 1st (2) (1/2 +64%) Coming Attraction	0.5 1/2(+64%)	(2) Coming Attraction 1/2, Runner-up beaten a length in a maiden at Goodwood only start; Polytrack debut; showed fair promise on debut, sets the standard Made a promising debut at Goodwood (6f) late last month; sets a decent standard.
2	4 2nd (4) (14/1 +86%) Harlequin Angel	14 14/1(+86%)	(4) Harlequin Angel 14/1, Well beaten in a maiden over 5f at Ascot only start; up in trip; Polytrack debut; needs big jump forward Rather in at the deep end on debut but it would be a surprise to see her feature.
3	3 3rd (3) (7/2 -87%) Crimson Rose	3.5 7/2(-87%)	(3) Crimson Rose 7/2, 3 Feb; first foal; Lope De Vega filly; dam very smart at 5f (won G3); half-sister to couple of winners (including 6f as 2yo); trainer in form; top trainer; likely big player, market can guide Early-foaled first offspring of a French 5f Group 3 winner; likely looking newcomer.
4	7 4th (7) (20/1 +9%) Moo Deng	20 20/1(+9%)	(7) Moo Deng 20/1, Well beaten in a novice at Newmarket only start; wide draw; needs big leap forward Well-beaten last of six on her Newmarket debut, when the occasion got the better of her.
5th	8 5th (8) (28/1 -180%) Welcome Retreat	28 28/1(-180%)	(8) Welcome Retreat 28/1, 12 Mar; Oasis Dream filly; full-sister to Green Tax, useful at 7f; dam fair at 7f at 2yo; yard in good form, one juvenile winner from five on AW; possibly stable second string but chance Like stablemate Laurasia has stamina in her pedigree and she too is probably best watched.
6th	6 6th (6) (16/1 -33%) Looks Likely	16 16/1(-33%)	(6) Looks Likely 16/1, 6 May; Showcasing filly; full-sister to Model Guest, very smart at 7f; dam useful at 10f; trianer going well with juveniles with 25% win rate; likely big player Trainer enjoyed a decent season thus far with 2yos and the market will guide.
7th	5 7th (5) (9/1 -13%) Laurasia	9 9/1(-13%)	(5) Laurasia 9/1, 6 Feb; first foal; Mohaather filly; dam unraced, half sister to winners 10f-2m; wide draw; yard in good form, one juvenile winner from five on AW; likely player, market best guide First foal of an unraced mare (stamina in her pedigree); worth a market check.

COMING ATTRACTION got up for second in the final strides on her debut at Goodwood last month and she would have learnt a great deal from that experience. If the daughter of Dark Angel takes a step forward from that effort, she could prove hard to beat. Crimson Rose is a well-related daughter of Lope De Vega and she has to be respected on her debut for the Godolphin team. Any market confidence behind newcomer Laurasia would be interesting.

Crimson Rose is the most interesting newcomer and COMING ATTRACTION sets the standard she's gunning for.

15:05 Ascot (Class 2) 11f - 19 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	8 1st (8) (3/1 +40%) Merchant	3 3/1(+40%)	(8) Merchant 3/1, Progressive colt who duly improved again upped to 12f at York last time; up 8lb but likely to come on again and a must for the shortlist. Up 8lb but he was impressive at York (1m4f, good to firm) and the form has been boosted.
2	5 2nd (5) (7/1 -75%) Serious Contender	7 7/1(-75%)	(5) Serious Contender 7/1, Progressive colt who shaped as if 12f would suit better when winning over 10f at Leopardstown back in March; this Irish Derby entry is a potential improver again now; claims. Two from four; won 16-runner handicap at Leopardstown (1m2f, good) from Light As Air.
3	14 3rd (14) (40/1 -43%) Pantile Warrior	40 40/1(-43%)	(14) Pantile Warrior 40/1, Creditable recent runs in decent handicaps, last time upped to 14f; less scope for improvement than many though and others are preferred. Stays but he needs to find more and faces a ton of rivals who are far less exposed.
4	2 4th (2) (25/1 -25%) Nautical Force	25 25/1(-25%)	(2) Nautical Force 25/1, Useful form at around 10f in Ireland this spring; could well progress again but needs to upped to 12f now. Four races; likely to stay but he needs to raise his game again for this handicap debut.
5th	9 5th (9) (11/1 +45%) Omni Man	11 11/1(+45%)	(9) Omni Man 11/1, Improved when stepped up to around 10f and winning well in minor maiden last time; this is much tougher but 12f is likely to suit even better and worth considering. This handicap debut is a very different scenario but he's getting the hang of things.
6th	15 6th (15) (50/1 -25%) Ammes	50 50/1(-25%)	(15) Ammes 50/1, Quite useful form in maiden/novice form, last time off the mark in two-runner race; cheekpieces first time; unproven on fast ground; needs to find more on handicap debut. 8-15, won two-runner novice at Chepstow; cheekpieces go on for demanding handicap debut.
7th	3 7th (3) (28/1 -27%) Boatswain	28 28/1(-27%)	(3) Boatswain 28/1, Three runs at around 10f, winning on debut (AW) and second twice since, including to Masai Moon two starts back; needs a bit more but he's very lightly raced. Pipped in his last two novices; strong finish last time, so 1m4f has to be well worth a go.
8th	4 8th (4) (20/1 +0%) Daiquiri Bay	20 20/1(+0%)	(4) Daiquiri Bay 20/1, Ran to form when close second in a novice over 10f at Doncaster latest; up in trip and unproven on fast ground; this calls for more but he's another one that unexposed. Dam won at up to 2m and he shapes as if stepping up to 1m4f will suit him well.
9th	6 9th (6) (10/3 +61%) Sing Us A Song	3.333333 10/3(+61%)	(6) Sing Us A Song 10/3, Yard won this last year; nicely bred and progressive colt who won decent race at Sandown (10f) on April reappearance; should stay 12f; further progress is needed. Clearcut win at Sandown (1m2f, good; made most); changed hands since; 1m4f will suit.
9th	19 9th (19) (50/1 -52%) Waterford Flow	50 50/1(-52%)	(19) Waterford Flow 50/1, Raced freely when third in an auction race over 10f at Roscommon most recent run; up in trip; unproven on fast ground; this fair maiden needs to find more for much-respected yard. Needs to show something new on this handicap debut; not so stoutly bred as some of these.
11th	17 11th (17) (50/1 -52%) Mafting	50 50/1(-52%)	(17) Mafting 50/1, Close second over 11f at Hamilton before winning another maiden last time, at Redcar (10f); lightly raced so could improve but needs to. Finally got the job done at another short price but it's no great recommendation for this.
12th	12 12th (12) (22/1 -83%) Light As Air	22 22/1(-83%)	(12) Light As Air 22/1, Useful and progressive maiden at up to 10f; cheekpieces first time; up in trip; unproven on fast ground; Moore looks elsewhere but this one is still a potential improver with claims. Eyecatching second to Serious Contender two runs back; up in trip here with cheekpieces.
13th	7 13th (7) (33/1 +0%) Chess Dad	33 33/1(+0%)	(7) Chess Dad 33/1, Thrice-raced colt who has run well twice at 10f since 1m AW debut win; needs to step up and less of an obvious improver than some of these. Has run in three novice events, fourth to Masai Moon at Nottingham; granddam Oaks winner.
14th	13 14th (13) (40/1 -43%) The Cursor	40 40/1(-43%)	(13) The Cursor 40/1, Thrice-raced maiden from a good yard; outclassed in Listed race (10f; unraced at further) last time; others appeal more all told. Well-bred maiden; last of seven in Epsom Listed race; unexposed but also plenty to prove.
15th	10 15th (10) (13/2 +28%) Gunship	6.5 13/2(+28%)	(10) Gunship 13/2, Ran pretty well on sole turf start but improved last-time-out AW win (10f; unraced at further) raises possibility he's better on AW; that latest form boosted since; not ruled out. Judged on his Sandown third in particular, he looks a tempting proposition for 1m4f.
16th	16 16th (16) (22/1 -57%) Lightening Mann	22 22/1(-57%)	(16) Lightening Mann 22/1, In good form in useful 10f handicaps, last time close second at Newbury (led); needs to pull out a bit more upped to 12f but is more seasoned than many here and each-way claims. Pipped in the London Gold Cup at Newbury and it looks like 1m4f will suit him.
17th	18 17th (18) (50/1 -127%) Grecian Legacy	50 50/1(-127%)	(18) Grecian Legacy 50/1, Gradually progressive at up to 10f, last time sound second at Epsom; needs to come on again but that is possible and not discounted. Held up; nearly won both his 1m2f handicaps this term; not crying out that loudly for 1m4f.
18th	11 18th (11) (9/1 +36%) Propose	9 9/1(+36%)	(11) Propose 9/1, Well backed when winning a 10f maiden at The Curragh well last time; steadily progressive; up in trip; unproven on fast ground; Moore looks elsewhere but very interesting otherwise. 1m2f maiden winner; brings clear potential, plus probable stamina, to this handicap debut.
19th	1 19th (1) (12/1 -33%) Masai Moon	12 12/1(-33%)	(1) Masai Moon 12/1, Yard has won two of last 10 runnings of race; made it two from three when rallying to win 10f Nottingham novice last time; gelded since; unexposed and has to be considered. Battled back to pip Boatswain; gelded since; 1m4f for handicap debut will suit him well.

Ralph Beckett has taken two of the last four renewals and he will be pinning his hopes on Sing Us A Song this year. The son of Camelot shed his maiden tag at Goodwood prior to winning on his handicap debut at Sandown and he boasts a leading chance. Serious Contender possesses a similar profile after scoring on his first start in a handicap at Leopardstown in March and the extra distance looks sure to suit, but it may be worth chancing PROPOSE. The son of Frankel made a strong impression when recording his first career success at Curragh on his latest outing and the colt has shaped as if he would relish this extra yardage.

Ralph Beckett can win it for the third time in five years, this time with SING US A SONG who is preferred to Gunship.

Mr Jetman came through the field to record a double over a mile at this track and he holds an obvious chance. The slight concern is this step back up in distance and, with that in mind, BOSPHORUS ROSE gets the nod. Sir Mark Prescott's filly built on three encouraging displays as a juvenile when scoring on her return at Bath. She remains unexposed and will prove hard to beat on her handicap debut. Paris Lights can fight it out for the minor honours.

Sir Mark Prescott's BOSPHORUS ROSE brings plenty of potential now going handicapping and she is taken to follow up her Bath novice win

JUNGLE LAND could only manage fifth over 7f at Leicester at the start of the month, but this drop in trip looks a good move for George Boughey's gelding and he has every chance of returning to winning ways back on an artificial surface. Moulin Booj is capable of being in the mix judged on his second at Musselburgh on his penultimate start, while Ziggy's Missile should find this grade more to his liking following his run in the Dash at Epsom.

Fidelius makes marginally most appeal of three Cowell runners, but strong-travelling MOULIN BOOJ should get this run to suit.

The Gosden yard has won four of the last 10 renewals, so Life Is Beautiful merits consideration, while Aidan O'Brien bids to win this for the third time in succession, with the Naas Listed winner Garden Of Eden looking his best chance. Catalina Delcarpio also travels over from Ireland with strong claims, but SERENITY PRAYER could prove the one to side with. The daughter of Dubawi never threatened to catch Whirl when second in the Musidora Stakes at York last month, but the latter has subsequently gone close in the Oaks, and Andrew Balding's progressive filly gets the vote on that form.

Preference is for ECSTATIC, who didn't get the breaks at Newbury last time and could have untapped potential now she's tackling 1m4f.

Having dropped to his last winning mark, Baldomero got his head back in front at Doncaster 12 days ago. Mick Appleby's gelding warrants consideration, but a 4lb rise and step up in class might leave him vulnerable. With that in mind, COMMANCHE FALLS could be the one to capitalise after bouncing back to form with a good second at Hamilton recently. Trefor and Irish Nectar are worth a second look as well.

Trefor is a solid contender but PALS BATTALION (nap) hasn't finished improving yet and he can resume winning ways.

EMPRESS OF ALL is still learning her trade, but has shown enough to suggest she can win at this level. The daughter of King Of Change went close here before posting an improved effort when runner-up in novice company at Goodwood, and she gets the vote. Kathleen Mary finished an encouraging third at Lingfield on her reappearance. She could emerge as the main danger, given Mythical Bird disappointed when well beaten behind the selection at Goodwood.

Following the retirement of dual winner Kyprios, Aidan O'Brien relies on the highly talented Illinois as he bids for a record-breaking 10th winner of this illustrious event. However, top-tier success has been elusive for the son of Galileo, who will be stepping into uncharted territory over this marathon trip. That is not the case with the 2024 runner-up, TRAWLERMAN, who has a major chance of going one better this year. The John and Thady Gosden-trained gelding stays well, is effective on the forecast going and enjoyed an ideal preparation by defeating Coltrane by five lengths in the Henry II at Sandown. His stable companion Sweet William and the unexposed French raider Candelari are also capable of being on the premises.

Trawlerman produced a mighty effort 12 months ago but faces 4yos of mouthwatering potential in Illinois and CANDELARI (nap).

1	1 (1) (15/2 +0%) Wadacre Gomez	7.5 15/2(+0%)	(1) Wadacre Gomez 15/2, Slowly away beaten 3l off 78 at Lingfield last time; CD winner (5 wins from 8 runs); inconsistent; needs much more than last twice but went close prior and loves this CD, player Excellent 5-8 over C&D; cheekpieces have helped and he can never be ruled out round here.
7	7 (7) (16/1 +0%) Valiabad	16 16/1(+0%)	(7) Valiabad 16/1, Needed race down the field in a handicap at Chester most recent and poorly drawn; fair effort on UK debut prior in May 2024; trip suits; won on Polytrack in France; interesting, player Just two runs for this yard in almost two years and has finished in rear in both of them.
4	4 (4) (22/1 +0%) Koy Koy	22 22/1(+0%)	(4) Koy Koy 22/1, Below par beaten 8l in a handicap over 7f at Chester last time; up in trip, suits; handles Polytrack; form on erratic side, squeak if giving best Regressed last year, mainly over shorter, and seems happier on Tapeta; cheekpieces off.
3	3 (3) (33/1 +0%) Wahraan	33 33/1(+0%)	(3) Wahraan 33/1, Raced freely well beaten in a handicap over 1m6f here latest; generally out of form; usually held up; down in trip a concern but won over it twice early in career; chance on pick of form Serial slow starter who stays a deal further; three poor efforts this season.
8	8 (8) (10/1 0%) Charlie's Choice	10 10/1(0%)	(8) Charlie's Choice 10/1, Ran to form beaten 1 1/2l off 77 over 12f at Lingfield last time; usually held up; handles conditions but best on Tapeta; in the mix Offered more in small-field turf handicap 6 weeks ago but this is rather more competitive.
5	5 (5) (25/1 0%) Arthur's Realm	25 25/1(0%)	(5) Arthur's Realm 25/1, Below par down the field in a handicap at Ripon most recent; in good form prior; course winner at 1m; trip suits; well-weighted when rediscovering best but bit to prove on recent form All wins come in the spring, once here but mainly on soft turf; bit to prove currently.

Wadacre Gomez could launch a serious challenge returning to the all-weather, while there looks more to come from the Hamilton runner-up Indalo. Saying that, it could pay to take a chance on the less-exposed JOLLY JACK TAR. A maiden winner at Lingfield, the son of Too Darn Hot looks on a workable mark for his handicap debut and first start since December, and will likely prove competitive at this level.

Jolly Jack Tar has potential but so does INDALO (nap), who looked an unlucky loser at Hamilton a fortnight ago off the same mark.

ESPRITROYALE is a hopeful pick in a race where newcomers are likely to figure prominently. The selection wears a hood on her debut and carries plenty of weight for a filly racing against colts, but has a smart pedigree. A 52,000gns yearling, her winning dam is a half-sister to four-time Group 1 winner Peeping Fawn and another top-level winner in Thewayyouare, so she could be useful. Dial Me In, a 42,000-euro yearling, is a grandson of a German 1,000 Guineas winner and represents a leading yard, while Sanctijude's dam was Listed-placed and has already bred two useful winners.

Gordon Elliott's BATTLE OF MALDON looked quite smart when winning a 7f Naas barrier trial last month and could prove too strong

27	27 (27) (10/1 +0%) Fifth Column	10 10/1(+0%)	(27) Fifth Column 10/1, Raised 6lb for latest Sandown win; cheekpieces first time; unproven on fast ground; off a short break, presumably put by with this in mind; top yard has decent record in this. 2-2 since gelded and appeared to be doing only enough at Sandown; up 6lb but respected.
5	5 (5) (12/1 +0%) Arabian Story	12 12/1(+0%)	(5) Arabian Story 12/1, Well backed when winning a 1m AW maiden at Chelmsford by 3l last time; unproven on turf; unexposed and worth considerinhg. Made all on British debut; dark one for trainer who's had plenty of success at the meeting.
8	8 (8) (12/1 +0%) Teroomm	12 12/1(+0%)	(8) Teroomm 12/1, Progressing well, last time finding plenty again to come through and win valuable contest at Haydock; up 6lb but more to come and much respected. Made it 3-3 this year in Haydock's Silver Bowl; tough colt who won't be fazed by this.
28	28 (28) (12/1 +0%) Brave Mission	12 12/1(+0%)	(28) Brave Mission 12/1, Lightly-raced colt who was sound handicap/seasonal debut second here in May; should stay 1m; needs a touch more but profile is enticing and might just find it. Going the right way and promises to devour the extra furlong of today's race.
12	12 (12) (14/1 +0%) Consolidation	14 14/1(+0%)	(12) Consolidation 14/1, Well backed when landing a handicap by a head over 7f at Goodwood last time; shaped there as if 1m would suit much better; up 5lb but progressive and worth considering. Needed all of the 7f at Goodwood and an extra furlong could make all the difference to him.
25	25 (25) (14/1 +0%) Raafedd	14 14/1(+0%)	(25) Raafedd 14/1, Won well in a 7f novice last time (form working out well); this is tougher but this 370,000gns yearling runs here in preference to Gr 3 here on Saturday and is a potential improver now. Easy novice winner and, now at 1m, could easily take a huge step forward on handicap debut.
2	2 (2) (16/1 +0%) La Botte	16 16/1(+0%)	(2) La Botte 16/1, Steadily progressive, last time creditable fourth in 7f Listed race; up in trip; unproven on fast ground; lightly raced, has a good draw and top Ascot straight-track jockey on board. Unexposed 3yo and the form of his latest Listed fourth is working out well.
31	31 (31) (18/1 +0%) Competizione	18 18/1(+0%)	(31) Competizione 18/1, Thrice-raced maiden, last time second to Arabian Story on Chelmsford AW (1m); needs to improve on handicap debut. Unexposed after only three runs and making his handicap debut here.
16	16 (16) (20/1 +0%) God Of War	20 20/1(+0%)	(16) God Of War 20/1, 7f winner last season; resumed with a sound second at Chester (7.5f) last month; more needed in this better-contested race. Close second on Chester return and handicap debut, though they did finish in a heap.
18	18 (18) (20/1 +0%) Fearnot	20 20/1(+0%)	(18) Fearnot 20/1, Lightly-raced colt who was improved winner over C&D last time; up 10lb but conditions clearly suit and may be more to come, so has to be respected. Strolled home here in early May but the handicapper didn't hold back with a 10lb hit.
20	20 (20) (20/1 +0%) Shameful	20 20/1(+0%)	(20) Shameful 20/1, Thrice-raced 3yo who was solid second on handicap debut at the Curragh last time; steps up to 1m now; may be more to come and not ruled out. Narrowly held on handicap debut at the Curragh (7f); has advanced his RPR with each start.
22	22 (22) (20/1 +0%) Shout	20 20/1(+0%)	(22) Shout 20/1, Two sound runs this season, last time tardily away over 7f here; bit more needed up to 1m now; change of headgear. Close third over 7f here last time off this mark, despite completely fluffing the start.
15	15 (15) (22/1 +0%) Serengeti	22 22/1(+0%)	(15) Serengeti 22/1, Possible to make excuses for this season's two defeats (heavy ground and then set the pace in Gr 1 company); this well-bred colt hails from top yard and by no means ruled out. AW winner; perhaps resented testing ground on return and then a pacemaker in a Group 1.
21	21 (21) (22/1 +0%) Iceford	22 22/1(+0%)	(21) Iceford 22/1, Breakthrough win at the Curragh last time; first run at beyond 7f now; needs to find a bit more and not as obviously progressive as some. Likeably consistent but only 1-6 and may lack same scope for improvement as some in here.
24	24 (24) (22/1 +0%) Tribal Nation	22 22/1(+0%)	(24) Tribal Nation 22/1, 7f winner (heavy; acts on good) last season; sound return at Naas (1m) in April and may be sharper now so a definite contender if acting on the fast ground. Downgraded from a Group race when a closing third on handicap debut (missed the break).
30	30 (30) (22/1 +0%) The Lost King	22 22/1(+0%)	(30) The Lost King 22/1, Lightly-raced colt who resumed with solid third to Fifth Column at Sandown in April; needs to find a bit extra but that's possible and not dismissed. Took a grip on his reappearance at Sandown but was still under 3l behind Fifth Column.
6	6 (6) (25/1 +0%) Afentiko	25 25/1(+0%)	(6) Afentiko 25/1, Dual 2yo winner who caught the eye when finishing well for third in good Haydock handicap on last month's seasonal debut; interesting. Usually races prominently, so did well to get involved from off the pace in Silver Bowl.
9	9 (9) (25/1 +0%) Mr Chaplin	25 25/1(+0%)	(9) Mr Chaplin 25/1, Possibly needed race over 7f at Goodwood last time; up in trip; less open to improvement than some; others preferred. 8lb higher than for his nursery win; ran okay on comeback run; first crack at 1m.
11	11 (11) (25/1 +0%) Hawksbill	25 25/1(+0%)	(11) Hawksbill 25/1, On a fair mark, including on form of latest second at Goodwood (made plenty of use of); stall two a slight concern but interesting otherwise. Went off like the clappers when second to a good horse last time; this mark is tempting.
29	29 (29) (25/1 +0%) Arctic Grey	25 25/1(+0%)	(29) Arctic Grey 25/1, Two from three, last time shrugging off some difficulties for narrow win at Goodwood; further progress is possible but up 5lb and needs to step up. All out to defy 5lb lower mark at Goodwood but found trouble and did well to win at all.
10	10 (10) (28/1 +0%) Thunder Wonder	28 28/1(+0%)	(10) Thunder Wonder 28/1, Two good handicaps wins at Musselburgh (1m and 1m1f) this season; should give it a good shot but more is needed up 4lb. This looks no masterplan but has shown himself to be smart when up with the pace.
23	23 (23) (28/1 +0%) The Fingal Raven	28 28/1(+0%)	(23) The Fingal Raven 28/1, Running well at Meydan when last seen out March; on a fair mark if he can resume at the same level here and not ruled out. Three good runs in Meydan earlier this year, latterly behind the 2,000 Guineas winner.
7	7 (7) (40/1 +0%) Seagolazo	40 40/1(+0%)	(7) Seagolazo 40/1, Closed out 2yo season with sound second at York but that was seven months ago and has been off since; slight doubt about this ground too. Finished last season on a high (in blinkers) but this is his seasonal reappearance.
14	14 (14) (40/1 +0%) Brise Noir	40 40/1(+0%)	(14) Brise Noir 40/1, Won 10f maiden on seasonal debut before latest fourth in minor 9.5f French Listed race; that form hard to tie in with these rivals have achieved but fast-run 1m might just suit. Fourth in a French Listed race last time, not quite getting home over the extended 1m1f.
1	1 (1) (50/1 +0%) Wolf Of Badenoch	50 50/1(+0%)	(1) Wolf Of Badenoch 50/1, Possibly needed race at Chelmsford last time in April; gelded since; cheekpieces first time; not proven trip; needs to refind smart early 2yo form. Didn't smack of a Britannia winner when only fifth of seven on AW return; now gelded.
3	3 (3) (50/1 +0%) Hott Shott	50 50/1(+0%)	(3) Hott Shott 50/1, Appeared not to stay in Dee Stakes (Listed) over 10f at Chester last time; in good form prior to that; low draw a possible negative but each-way shout otherwise. Not the ideal prep when below par at Chester but he has claims on the best of his form.
4	4 (4) (50/1 +0%) Supido	50 50/1(+0%)	(4) Supido 50/1, Decent 2yo who made promising seasonal/stable debut at Chester last month; may well be sharper now; not discounted. Useful 2yo; stable debut when a closing fifth from a poor position at Chester.
13	13 (13) (50/1 +0%) Dividend	50 50/1(+0%)	(13) Dividend 50/1, Turf winner last season but there's now a question as to whether he prefers the AW after this season's evidence, last time back on grass and well held. All three wins on the AW; hung left when only sixth at Sandown; opposable.
17	17 (17) (50/1 +0%) Defence Minister	50 50/1(+0%)	(17) Defence Minister 50/1, Won first two starts last season but well held in stakes company since, last time when run was possibly needed; doubts about 1m and fast ground; others preferred. Pedigree suggests he should stay this far but running style casts some doubts.
26	26 (26) (10/1 +17%) Parole D'oro	10 10/1(+17%)	(26) Parole D'oro 10/1, Clear of the rest when second in a novice at Thirsk latest, when travelling best but worn down by the progressive Teroomm; tongue-tie on now; off a short break; might just improve now. Could be well handicapped if able to improve on his reappearing second to Teroomm.

Harry Eustace landed this contest in 2023 with Tuesday's Queen Anne hero Docklands and he looks to have another big contender in the shape of LA BOTTE. A highly creditable fourth in a strong renewal of the King Charles II Stakes at Newmarket, Jamie Spencer's mount is bred to improve for going up in trip and a mark of 99 could prove lenient on his handicap debut. The hat-trick seeking Fifth Column must be a leading contender, while the same can be said of Brave Mission, who finished well when second over 7f here. Teroomm continues to go from strength to strength and must enter calculations, along with old rival Parole D'oro and unexposed Newbury scorer Raafedd. Completing the shortlist are Arabian Story, Fearnot and God Of War.

As interesting as any is PAROLE D'ORO, who may have been saved for this since narrowly failing to give 2lb to Teroomm in April.

DUBAI BEACH took a big step forward when returning the convincing winner at Kempton on her handicap debut. She will likely be raised by more than today's 5lb penalty in the future and Saeed Bin Suroor's filly looks worth sticking with. Hitched returns to the Polytrack with solid claims in this grade, based on his victory at Lingfield in April, while Waiting For Love is worthy of a second glance on her handicap debut.

It's tough to get away from the lightly raced DUBAI BEACH under a 5lb penalty. Waiting For Love is second choice.

The application of a hood did the trick for recent Wetherby scorer SOUTH SHORE and there could be more to come. A 3lb nudge up the ratings looks workable for Ruth Carr's charge and a brace may beckon. Fellow last-time-out winner Raft Up must enter calculations in his current fettle, although a 6lb higher mark does demand more from the four-year-old. With that in mind, a bigger threat may emerge from Mark's Choice in first-time cheekpieces.

Plenty of possibles but SOUTH SHORE won tidily at Wetherby 17 days ago and can make light of a 3lb rise.

FERRYBANK is a dual course winner who shaped nicely on his recent reappearance. A five-time winner who is suited by this distance, he won over a mile here last June and although beaten over five lengths here last week, should improve from that effort and today's sounder surface will also help. Finsceal Annie won last week's race and although burdened with a fixed 7lb penalty, she is ground-versatile and should compete. Prince Of Eyeries has been raised 6lb for winning a Gowran claimer.

Finsceal Annie is turned out quickly after her impressive C&D win last week but CLONMACASH is fancied to reverse the form this time

High Stock built on the promise he showed when successful on debut in the Wood Ditton to fill the runner-up spot in the Dee Stakes and could have lots of improvement in him on only his third outing. However, TRINITY COLLEGE finished a head behind Detain when fourth in the Prix du Jockey Club and may turn the tables. Aidan O'Brien's colt possibly took it up too soon and was only caught late on so, with slightly different tactics possibly deployed this time, he could be the one to beat. Glittering Legend is an improver to keep an eye on after his Listed triumph at Newcastle in April.

The step up in trip should be a firm plus for JACKKNIFE and he earns the vote ahead of another twice-raced contender in High Stock.

GROUNDHOG didn't enjoy the best of passages when grabbing second at Carlisle last month and compensation could be in the offing. The River Boyne gelding makes plenty of appeal off an unchanged mark and, granted better luck, should take all the beating. Flamborough Head found himself with too much to do when finishing third over C&D and may reverse form with runner-up Sovereign Class. Perfidia could also figure now stepping up in distance.

Flamborough Head is the only winner in the field but this could be the day for GROUNDHOG to shed his maiden tag.

ANGELA'S BAAR showed stacks on promise when filling the runner-up spot over 6f at Pontefract on her debut and she could be the one to flourish the most, with the step up to 7f likely to be a source for progression. Kawthar and Adalida have similar profiles and are appealing options for the shortlist, while Dunkeld Dreamer represents a yard that is flying with its juveniles and she is a notable debutant to consider.

Angela's Baar looked a shade unlucky not to make a winning debut but slight preference is for Windsor runner-up ADALIDA.

Three-time winner CORDOUAN has a wide draw but has run notable races recently and appears well handicapped, having once been rated 91. Ridden from off the pace when powering home behind stablemate Ransom at the Curragh last month, he was well supported when finishing third here last week and reverting to this distance should help. Ransom himself stalled at the start before encountering every red light at Roscommon in mid-May prior to that Curragh success, but is now 8lb higher. The three-year-old Faoladh was beaten a short head over C&D recently and is 3lb higher.

It will be no easy task for a 3yo taking on older and more experienced rivals but Dermot Weld's TILANI gets the nod

PERSIAN PHOENIX had little difficulty justifying favouritism in Jersey last month and she makes plenty of appeal returning to these shores. Archie Watson's filly had previously posted a solid third at Southwell and, racing off the same mark, a reproduction of that effort may prove sufficient. The biggest danger might emerge in the shape of dual C&D winner Dubai Harbour, who was too keen over 2m here a fortnight ago. Fravanco is another to consider.

The vote goes to PERSIAN PHOENIX, who won under Brodie Hampson in Jersey last month and that was after two good runs on AW.

12	12 (12) (5/1 +0%) English Oak	5 5/1(+0%)	(12) English Oak 5/1, Well held over 8f at Newbury last time; generally out of form; cheekpieces first time; won this well last year and strong claims off just 1lb higher if able to refind that form. Took this race to pieces in 2024; low key this year; well treated again; cheekpieces go on.
3	3 (3) (9/1 +0%) Never So Brave	9 9/1(+0%)	(3) Never So Brave 9/1, Gap came too late, unlucky, would have won on seasonal/stable debut at Chester last time; that highly promising run makes him a leading player here. Smart effort to win on handicap debut (about 7f) last May; unlucky not to win yard debut.
26	26 (26) (10/1 +0%) Gleneagle Bay	10 10/1(+0%)	(26) Gleneagle Bay 10/1, Running consistently well for the most part, last time close third over C&D in the Victoria Cup; major player despite 3lb rise. Strong-finishing 3rd over C&D (good to firm) in May; up 3lb; solid chance.
1	1 (1) (14/1 +0%) Roi De France	14 14/1(+0%)	(1) Roi De France 14/1, Did not get a clear run when running well in another top C&D handicap here last time; cheekpieces first time; respected from attractive draw. In good form on AW but one-paced 6th in valuable C&D handicap in May; cheekpieces go on.
14	14 (14) (14/1 +0%) Oliver Show	14 14/1(+0%)	(14) Oliver Show 14/1, Has had a wind op since his close second in the Lincoln (1m; effective at 7f last year) in March; yard won this in 2023; very interesting runner. Three AW wins at 7f in 2024; excellent 2nd in the Lincoln (1m) in March; may improve again.
29	29 (29) (16/1 +0%) Billyjoh	16 16/1(+0%)	(29) Billyjoh 16/1, Ran to form at Doncaster last time and when second in this last year; very much an each-way contender again. Yet to win a turf handicap but two fine 2nds in top 7f races in 2024, including this race.
28	28 (28) (18/1 +0%) Divine Libra	18 18/1(+0%)	(28) Divine Libra 18/1, Did not get a clear run and wide draw no help at Chester last time; better than that and has solid each-way chance on pick of his 2024 form, including here. Never involved in this race last year; fair 5th over C&D last July but form needs a boost.
21	21 (21) (20/1 +0%) Ramazan	20 20/1(+0%)	(21) Ramazan 20/1, Not at best lately, though tardy start no help last time; on a good mark on best form and was second in 2024 Victoria Cup over C&D, so bold show at big odds far from impossible. Minor form this year but 9lb lower than close 2nd in Victoria Cup over C&D in May 2024.
10	10 (10) (22/1 +0%) Holguin	22 22/1(+0%)	(10) Holguin 22/1, Promising run when back from a break and third at Chester last time; Buick takes over now; on a good mark on old form; shortlisted. Smart for A Balding in 2023; good handicap debut for new yard at Chester (7f); dangerous.
24	24 (24) (22/1 +0%) Akkadian Thunder	22 22/1(+0%)	(24) Akkadian Thunder 22/1, Travelled well when winning at Doncaster last time; jockey booking takes the eye; up 6lb so more is needed, but worth considering all the same. Unexposed at 7f; promising 8th over C&D in October; ready winner back at 7f latest.
25	25 (25) (22/1 +0%) Mirsky	22 22/1(+0%)	(25) Mirsky 22/1, Well backed when winning over longer trip at Epsom last time; showed plenty of pace there, so 7f need not necessarily be a problem; up 5lb but still shortlisted. Fair 5th of 18 over C&D in October; on a hat-trick after two 1m wins; something new needed.
27	27 (27) (22/1 +0%) Fifty Nifty	22 22/1(+0%)	(27) Fifty Nifty 22/1, Raced freely when well below-par at Newmarket last time; in good form prior to that; bit to find even if back on song. Successfully dropped to 7f when winning at Newmarket in August; ran poorly latest.
18	18 (18) (25/1 +0%) No Retreat	25 25/1(+0%)	(18) No Retreat 25/1, Ran to form at Haydock last time when back from a short break; cheekpieces first time; drawn on the wing of large field in stall one, which could be a negative. Consistent; more to do than when off the mark at Meydan (7f) and 3rd for new yard in May.
5	5 (5) (28/1 +0%) Witch Hunter	28 28/1(+0%)	(5) Witch Hunter 28/1, Yard has won two of last five runnings of race, including with this fellow in 2023; generally out of form but these big-field handicaps suit and not ruled out. Won this race in 2023 off today's mark; back on this track, could step up on recent form.
9	9 (9) (33/1 +0%) Northern Express	33 33/1(+0%)	(9) Northern Express 33/1, Not yet at best this season but this is a feasible mark and can go well here - third in this in 2023, big C&D handicap winner last July - so not ruled out. Very steady operator in top C&D handicaps, winning one off 1lb higher last July.
11	11 (11) (33/1 +0%) Myal	33 33/1(+0%)	(11) Myal 33/1, Game when winning by a nose at Chester last time; dependable sort but 5lb rise makes him vulnerable. Won 6-7 in 7f handicaps but only 8th over C&D in May and shade fortunate at Chester latest.
13	13 (13) (33/1 +0%) Jayyash	33 33/1(+0%)	(13) Jayyash 33/1, Plenty of solid runs in Qatar in more recent times and seems versatile as regards trip but this a stiff mark on balance. Some good results in Qatar, including at 7f, but 18lb higher than latest defeat in Britain.
15	15 (15) (33/1 +0%) Inside Matters	33 33/1(+0%)	(15) Inside Matters 33/1, Off since winning minor French maiden a year ago; gelded and had wind op since; this is a tough British debut. Well connected; off since winning 7f maiden in France last July; easier options later.
23	23 (23) (33/1 +0%) Run Boy Run	33 33/1(+0%)	(23) Run Boy Run 33/1, Running consistently well in good quality handicaps lately while the return to 7f isn't an issue either; well worth considering. All 3 handicap wins at 7f; good 6f form of late; needs more than C&D third in September.
17	17 (17) (40/1 +0%) Apiarist	40 40/1(+0%)	(17) Apiarist 40/1, Generally pretty reliable, most recently on the AW but showed in 2024 that he's fully effective on grass; others look better weighted, though. Gained a useful scalp when returned to 7f on Southwell AW in February; has a squeak.
7	7 (7) (50/1 +0%) Two Tempting	50 50/1(+0%)	(7) Two Tempting 50/1, Reliable sort but handicapper looks in charge for now; would appeal more at at extended 7f or 1m. Five wins in 2024, including here; won last month but well held since; up against it.
20	20 (20) (50/1 +0%) Cerulean Bay	50 50/1(+0%)	(20) Cerulean Bay 50/1, Signs of running into form at Chester last time; back down to his last winning mark and not ruled out. Four wins at 7f; signs of life when 5th at Chester latest; sights are set higher today.
16	16 (16) (66/1 +0%) Yorkshire	66 66/1(+0%)	(16) Yorkshire 66/1, Dependable sort who was in good form when last seen out in April; looks weighted up to best and vulnerable for win purposes. Solid effort when 4th over 7f in April but unlikely to have much in hand of the assessor.
19	19 (19) (66/1 +0%) Thunder Ball	66 66/1(+0%)	(19) Thunder Ball 66/1, Off since running to form at Goodwood nine months ago; fourth in the 2023 Britiannia here; bought for 55,000gns and changed yards since last time; 1m better; too much to prove. Capable at 1m/1m1f for the Coles but up against it for new yard after layoff.
2	2 (2) (80/1 +0%) Tarkhan	80 80/1(+0%)	(2) Tarkhan 80/1, Well held at Chester last time when that British debut run was probably needed; blinkers first time; that performance didn't suggest a win just yet was likely. German Listed winner in the autumn; well held on British debut; first-time blinkers.
8	8 (8) (80/1 +0%) Watch My Tracer	80 80/1(+0%)	(8) Watch My Tracer 80/1, Down the field in a handicap over 8f at Bahrain most recent back in January; generally out of form; returning from a break no bad thing (goes well fresh) but difficult to fancy all told. Best fresh; Listed AW winner at 7f; in the ruck in Bahrain on last 2 starts.
22	22 (22) (80/1 +0%) Spangled Mac	80 80/1(+0%)	(22) Spangled Mac 80/1, Balance of recent form in Bahrain (mainly) and Britain leaves him with bit to prove; has had a wind op since latest below-par run 11 weeks ago. Fourth in the 2023 running but no standout at the weights on overall C&D form; had wind op.
4	4 (4) (100/1 +0%) Aafoor	100 100/1(+0%)	(4) Aafoor 100/1, Probably needed race and outclassed in Group 3 over 10f at Sandown latest; would appeal more at a longer trip. Hampered when 8th of 18 over 7f at Goodwood; three wins at 1m2f in Qatar since; up weights.

GLENEAGLE BAY produced a terrific late surge when third in the Victoria Cup here last month. Narrowly beaten on that occasion, Stephen Thorne's charge looks worthy of another chance now sporting the Amo Racing colours. Oliver Show has undergone a wind operation since going agonisingly close in the Lincoln back in March. He can have a say in the outcome, while Akkadian Thunder won nicely at Doncaster recently and could also land a blow. Roi De France may improve with cheekpieces applied for the first time and makes more appeal than last year's winner English Oak.

Never So Brave can go well but GLENEAGLE BAY excelled himself in the Victoria Cup and there's a good chance he can improve again.

CITY OF POETS readily built on his promising Thirsk debut with a bloodless success at Lingfield in April. Freshened by a short break, this could be an ideal piece of placement for the son of Ghaiyyath to follow up. Fan Club and Blackanddeckers are potential improvers that warrant respect. However, Ziggy's Angel is a well-related gelding and won't need to be out of the ordinary to give the selection the most to think about.

By far the most obvious answer is CITY OF POETS, who looked useful when dominating from the front at Lingfield in April.

FAR FROM DANDY was a useful two-year-old in the UK last year and should progress following last month's reappearance. He ran nicely for fourth at the Curragh on his Irish debut and although beaten three lengths, that race was over an inadequate 7f and he struck over a mile as a juvenile. Sir Jeremy's rating had fallen prior to finishing well at Fairyhouse recently and while raised 5lb for that second, he should compete. Mississippi River was beaten at long odds-on at Naas last month and is now tried in first-time blinkers.

FAR FROM DANDY can be expected to improve a good deal on his eyecatching Irish debut fourth at the Curragh and could take some beating

Having found only smart prospect Rogue Supremacy too strong at Wetherby earlier this month, VLAD is likely to prove a warm order to open his account. The Simon & Ed Crisford-trained colt sets a clear standard on his two runner-up efforts to date and is difficult to oppose. Orange Emperor offered something to work with when fourth on debut at Goodwood and may claim the silver medal, with Grand Echo the pick of the remainder.

This looks a golden opportunity for VLAD, who has finished runner-up behind odds-on rivals in both his runs and sets a clear standard.

Rose Of New Jersey made the most of a drop in class to win a 0-58 handicap at Carlisle last month and rates a key player as she bids to double her career tally off just 3lb higher. However, ROCK DIVA has also faced stiffer tests and she could be worth chancing with a hood added for her turf/stable debut from a potentially lenient rating. Fallons First and Beta Reader complete the shortlist.

Carlisle winner Rose Of New Jersey ought to go well again here but the one to take out of that race is the fourth, CANDLE OF TIME.

ELUSIVE DUKE's rating has fallen dramatically this year but showed a return to form at Limerick eight days ago, when he was the subject of late on-course support. Runner-up to a smart performer in his debut run last September, he was well held in handicaps prior to last time and he could be ideally suited to stepping up to this distance. Four-time course-and-distance winner Smaoineamh Sile scored here recently and carries her correct revised weight under a 7lb penalty, but in contrast to last week (where Obama Army finished fifth), is badly drawn in 18. Harbanaker is another course-and-distance winner but is similarly drawn wide in 16.

Moutai improved for the switch to handicap company when finishing third over an extended 1m at Hamilton last month. However, the son of Hello Youmzain isn't certain to stay this distance and NIGHT STEP rates as the most solid proposition. Owen Burrows' gelding lost little in defeat when runner-up behind a progressive rival at Leicester and a 2lb nudge up the ratings could prove to be lenient. Arizona Rock is also noted in first-time blinkers.

The selection is RAEDWALD (nap) who is bred to relish this longer trip on handicap debut.

RUMBA BAY failed to supplement her Salisbury triumph when fourth at Ripon last time, but that was still a fair effort. David Evans' filly competes off the same rating and she can bounce back on this occasion. Alpine Girl returns off a 1lb lower rating than her sixth at Yarmouth when last seen and is an interesting contender on her first start for the Julie Camacho yard. Daytona Lady is another to note.

A few of these look iffy for one reason or another but one exception is progressive 3yo RUMBA BAY, who has won three times this year.

EAGLES WHISTLE is a 40-rated nine-race maiden but has run well recently and appears progressive. A five-year-old who didn't race until last October, she is also a slow-starter in her races but ran nicely at Killarney in May and finished well over seven furlongs at Listowel. Today's rider claims 3lb and she could be suited by stepping up to this distance. Noble Andy has form over longer distances at this grade and is 3lb lower than when finishing fifth at Fairyhouse recently but dropping in distance isn't ideal. Quirky six-time winner Higher Kingdom is a 29-race maiden on turf and while he ran well at Gowran recently, can often give trouble in stalls and flopped here last week.

Royal Accord and Woodhay Whisper both have solid credentials based on their form over 6f, but are stepping into the unknown with regards to tackling this additional yardage. With that in mind, it could be worth siding with MUY MUY LOCO, who just ran out of steam over a mile when third at Brighton most recently and dropping back down to 7f looks well worth another try on the face value of that run.

This can go to LINEAR SPIRIT who should appreciate the return to this trip and is open to improvement now switched to a handicap.

PALADIN struck by half a length at Southwell in December and makes his return to the fray off just a 4lb higher rating. Provided the four-year-old can back that performance up, he could be the one to beat. Cosmos Raj hasn't finished outside of the top two in each of his last six outings and it would be no surprise to see him feature. Tele Red isn't ruled out either.

Close to the pace throughout when close fourth in a good York handicap on Saturday, TELE RED (nap) gets the verdict off the same mark.

CARTHUSIAN ran well on his debut last month when he shaped like a real staying type. Out of a Listed winner and a 340,000-euro yearling, he was outpaced early in the home straight at Navan but finished his race well. He holds Happy Pharoah on that form and should be much better for that experience over today's longer distance. Paul Henry made the running on his Gowran debut in April but faded tamely in the closing stages. He too steps up in distance but needs to show more. Keyboard completes the shortlist.

This looks like a suitable opportunity for CARTHUSIAN (nap) to step up a place following an encouraging debut second at Navan

KESSAAR POWER was second to an in-form rival at Chelmsford last week and appears to be the most logical option as that form has been boosted by the winner going in again since. C&D scorer Vitalline is also capable of a bold showing at this level and rates the chief danger, while Shot Of Love and Fai Fai hold solid each-way prospects based on their past exploits.

Kessaar Power and No Gain can feature but VITALLINE could be the answer now dropped to a 0-50 classified event.

GOLDEN PROSPERITY bounced back to form with a taking success in a classified race at Nottingham last week and a 5lb penalty may not be enough to prevent him from going in again over shorter. More of a specialist on the all-weather, Arlington is a key player if transferring those abilities, while Calafrio is capable of being in the mix. Asadjumeirah and Quercus are others to note.

This looks fraught with danger and NEWYORKSTATEOFMIND is just a tentative selection. Calafrio might prove best of the rest.

Success for A DREAM TO SHARE could put him in the mix for Galway's amateur riders' handicap. He completed a memorable bumper five-timer under today's rider in 2022/23, culminating in wins at Cheltenham and Punchestown and while he subsequently had setbacks, showed his old ability racing over inadequate distances on recent Curragh runs. Weight-receiving Royal Hollow is a Grade 3-placed hurdler who has Flat form but will struggle against an on-song selection. Capable course-specialist Gaoth Chuil will be ideally suited by today's staying distance and has solid place claims.

Handicap debutant DUBAI TREASURE boasts a stellar pedigree and is hard to see beyond, despite this being only her fourth career start. Last seen when making all for a cosy success in a maiden at Wolverhampton last July, the daughter of Exceed And Excel won't need much of a step forward to justify the faith shown by Godolphin by keeping her in training. White Crown Star's recent third at York reads well and he also looks a key player. Ultrasoul is the pick of the rest.

This can go the way of BERNALDA, who shaped with promise when having her first go over this distance at Redcar last time out. A 1lb drop will make life easier on this occasion, along with Fred Daly's 5lb claim, and she is preferred to Titainium, who shaped well for a long way before weakening into fourth late in the piece over 1m4f at Catterick last week. A comfortable winner at Leicester over this distance on her penultimate outing, Guendolen also warrants consideration.

This can go to BERNALDA, who can race off a 1lb lower mark than when a good third at Redcar and remains with few miles on the clock

About U.K Horse Racing

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
