1st (1) (4/9 +44%)Loriko |
4/9(+44%) | (1) Loriko 4/9, Ran to form when winning a maiden hurdle at Huntingdon by 2l last time; trainer in form; effective 2m-2m4f on heavy and good; showed useful form in France, good chance in this under penalty. Well below the fairly useful form he showed in the autumn when beaten odds-on favourite in Plumpton maiden (2m, good) in April but made amends when winning tactical match race at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) last month; his profile is still not entirely convincing but he has strong claims here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (8/1 -129%)Biggles |
8/1(-129%) | (2) Biggles 8/1, May not have stayed beaten 9 1/4l in a handicap at Newbury last time; absent for very lengthy period; effective 7f, best with cut; very useful Flat handicapper, could make impact over hurdles if stamina holds up but that is a worry. Very useful on the Flat in his prime, with career highlight his 2023 Bunbury Cup success (7f; unraced beyond about 1m); absent since two below-par runs in spring 2024, though, and tricky to weigh up on stable/hurdle debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (10/1 -54%)Starshine Legend |
10/1(-54%) | (4) Starshine Legend 10/1, Failed to build on reappearance comfortably held in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; effective 12-14f, acts on any; Flat winner has retained ability to prove starting out over hurdles. Fair Flat racer who gained his win over 1m4f two years ago; back from long layoff with two underwhelming runs for new stable this spring but still has possibilities if he takes well to hurdling at the first attempt.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (9/2 +40%)White Riot |
9/2(+40%) | (5) White Riot 9/2, Fell in a maiden hurdle at Southwell latest when beaten; second run after wind op; effective 2m, acts on good to soft, good; form of bumper win had knocks, yet to fire over hurdles. Won good-ground bumper by 8l in March 2025; rather disappointing when well-held third on hurdle debut in October and has failed to complete twice since but shaped with promise before weakening and falling at Southwell (2m, good) last month, after a break.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (66/1 -267%)Minella Blizzard |
66/1(-267%) | (3) Minella Blizzard 66/1, Pulled up in a maiden at Quakerstown latest; off a short-break; showed nothing in points and best watched starting out over hurdles. Out of a well-connected mare but was pulled up on his Irish point debut in April; the betting market may guide on this rules debut.. |

LORIKO beat his sole rival with the minimum of fuss to land the odds at Huntingdon. This shorter trip shouldn't be an issue on the evidence of his previous efforts over 2m and he's taken to defy a penalty with Dan Skelton''s yard in flying form. Olly Murphy also has his string string in good order and Starshine Legend, a winner over 1m4f on the Flat, should be noted on his hurdling debut, while Biggles is another hurdles newcomer to keep an eye on.

1st (3) (7/2 -87%)Wateera |
7/2(-87%) | (3) Wateera 7/2, 12 Feb; 52,000 euros Dandy Man filly; half-sister to Sands Of Josepi, very useful at 5f; top trainer and this one is afforded maximum respect on debut. 52,000euros yearling; fourth foal; half-sister to 5f AW 2yo winner Sands Of Josepi (RPR 76); dam French 6f 2yo winner, half-sister to French winners Millau (useful 6f/7f) and Emblematique (6f/7.5f 2yo); trainer 21% with 2yos on turf over the last five seasons; check the market for clues.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (1/1 +27%)Ziggy Starshine |
1/1(+27%) | (1) Ziggy Starshine 1/1, Confirmed debut level when second beaten 2l in a Fillies & Mares race at Salisbury latest; effective 5f, acts on good and fast ground; useful sort, can go well again. Well-backed debut winner at Bath (5f, good) in April, when appearing to have plenty in hand; also supported at Salisbury (5f, good to firm) last time but she didn't manage to step up on that first effort and found one too good; sets the standard though and is a likely player again.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (8/1 +60%)Classic Bellini |
8/1(+60%) | (6) Classic Bellini 8/1, Modest debut beaten 4l in a maiden at Thirsk on debut; bred for speed; improvement likely. 28-1 on debut at Thirsk (5f, good) last month, when slow to get going and never better than midfield; half-sister to a Listed sprint-winning 2yo and no surprise if she is able to step up on that.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (40/1 -60%)Eleven Eighty Two |
40/1(-60%) | (8) Eleven Eighty Two 40/1, 28 Feb; 12,000 euros Ardad filly; dam moderate at 8f; looks an unlikely winner on debut. 12,000euros yearling; fourth foal; half-sister to French 6f 2yo winner Charismatic Chick; dam placed 7.5f in France, out of maiden half-sister to 5f Group 1 winner Gilt Edge Girl and 5f 2yo Group 2 winner Godfrey Street; trainer not known for 2yo turf winners.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (10/3 +44%)Hoosier |
10/3(+44%) | (2) Hoosier 10/3, 2 Apr; 48,000 euros Starspangledbanner filly; half-sister to Royal County Glory, fair from 5f-7f; dam moderate at 8f; trainer in form, respected. 48,000euros yearling; second foal; half-sister to 7f AW winner Royal County Glory (RPR 63); dam 1m AW winner (62), closely related to 1m winner Sienna Lady, half-sister to 7f Group 2 winner Shakespearean; trainer 12% with turf 2yos the last five seasons; market check suggested.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (33/1 -65%)Ma Fille De Reve |
33/1(-65%) | (5) Ma Fille De Reve 33/1, 4 Apr; Harry Angel filly; half-sister to Yiengaa, fair at 6f; dam smart at 6f; likely up against it on debut. Fourth foal; half-sister to 6f/8.5f winner Yiengaa (including Germany; RPR 58); dam 6f/7f winner (including AW 2yo; 101), half-sister to useful 1m 2yo winner Madeed; trainer 7-115 with 2yos on turf in recent seasons but has had one go in on the AW this year.. |

Having supplemented a debut victory at Bath with a good second in a class 2 event at Salisbury last month, it's difficult to get away from ZIGGY STARSHINE. The Starman filly makes grand appeal in these calmer waters and a second career triumph may beckon. Karl Burke has been doing well with his juveniles this season, so newcomer Wateera merits close inspection in the betting, followed by fellow debutant Hoosier.

1st (1) (11/10 +37%)Angels Passing |
11/10(+37%) | (1) Angels Passing 11/10, Outpaced but finished well as pace collapsed 4 1/4l fourth in Marygate Fillies' Stakes (Listed) at York first-time out; effective 5f but dam stayed 7f, acts on good; already quite smart and should improve. 18-1 and slowly away before keeping on well for fourth of ten on debut in a Listed race at York (5f, good) three weeks ago; this 130,000euros yearling could have plenty more to offer tackling 6f; strong claims.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (5/4 +29%)Meennaa |
5/4(+29%) | (4) Meennaa 5/4, Bit free and out-battled late but very promising debut runner-up beaten 3/4l in a novice at Kempton only start; effective 6f, acts on AW; debut form franked, should improve if settling. 225,000gns yearling whose dam was a very talented 2yo; backed into 4-1 when clear second on last month's debut at Kempton (6f, AW); there have been mixed messages from that form but it was a promising start to her career and she's travelled from Lambourn for this second start; has to be respected.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (6/1 -50%)Little Lady Karen |
6/1(-50%) | (3) Little Lady Karen 6/1, 16 Jan; £68,000 Dark Angel filly; dam moderate at 6f at 2yo; top trainer who gets plenty of first time out winners; worth following in the betting. 52,000gns foal, £68,000 yearling; first foal; dam twice-raced half-sister to 1m Group 1 winner Accidental Agent, out of 5f 2yo/7f winner (RPR 90); this Dark Angel newcomer takes on rivals who have shown plenty of promise but she's from a top northern stable and could have a big say.. |

There was plenty of encouragement to be gleaned from ANGELS PASSING's opening fourth in a Listed event at York and she could be poised to open her account. The extra furlong should suit the No Nay Never filly and she gets the vote over Jazz Queen. Although Hugo Palmer's charge was underwhelming last time at Haydock, a reproduction of her previous second at Chester would see her go close. Meennaa is open to improvement, while market support for newcomer Little Lady Karen would be interesting.

1st (1) (2/13 +54%)Coumeenoole |
2/13(+54%) | (1) Coumeenoole 2/13, Keen, improved again just beaten by well handicapped progressive rival when second beaten 1 1/4l in a handicap hurdle at Market Rasen latest; trainer in form; effective 2m4f-3m, suited by decent ground; may have more to offer for new yard over staying trips. Miles clear with one other when beaten just over 1l in a Market Rasen 0-125 handicap latest (3m, good; RPR 118), and this novice contest isn't anywhere near as deep; yet to register form of that calibre with give underfoot, but possible he could get away with it here even if rain arrives.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (5/1 -43%)Presentandcorrect |
5/1(-43%) | (3) Presentandcorrect 5/1, Very promising debut beaten by more experienced rival 4 1/4l third in a maiden hurdle at Cartmel most recent run; effective 2m6f; should improve a little for initial experience. 23l clear of Stavanger Rose when third at Cartmel on last month's hurdling debut (2m6f, good), beaten about 4l but quite strong in the finish; coped fine with cut in bumpers and argues a solid case.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (20/1 -11%)Millena Agent |
20/1(-11%) | (4) Millena Agent 20/1, Improved when second beaten 4 1/2l in a point at Sheriff Hutton latest; off a short-break; showed minor promise in points. 2m4f Hexham maiden point winner last November (heavy), and best effort since when second in her members latest; some encouragement for staying trips on pedigree (family of Monger Lane), and won't mind any rain.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (50/1 -79%)Stavanger Rose |
50/1(-79%) | (5) Stavanger Rose 50/1, Every chance, continued in poor form comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Cartmel last time; jumping an issue so far, handicaps might suit better. Accident prone during her time with Daisy Hitchins, albeit shaping with promise sometimes; failed to see out 2m6f when finally registering a completion on stable debut latest, however.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (2) (22/1 -57%)Executive Producer |
22/1(-57%) | (2) Executive Producer 22/1, Improved from debut under positive ride when fourth beaten 15l in a novice hurdle here latest; effective 2 1/2m, acts on good; likely one for handicaps over hurdles. Big uplift on previous hurdling efforts when 15l fourth over 2m4f here latest (good), though late weakening doesn't necessarily augur well for this step up in trip (didn't see out 3m in Irish points).. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (6) (150/1 -50%)Up The Hill |
150/1(-50%) | (6) Up The Hill 150/1, Pulled up in a bumper at Taunton latest; tongue-tie first time; off a short-break; showed little in bumpers, all to prove starting out over hurdles. Bred to appreciate a trip and hurdles, but must settle an awful lot better than on either bumper start last winter; gains tongue-tie.. |

COUMEENOOLE is difficult to oppose back in novice company. Picked off late at Market Rasen last time, the son of Harzand landed a handicap at Bangor before that and conditions remain in his favour. Presentandcorrect made a promising start over hurdles when third at Cartmel. He could give the selection something to think about with any further progress, while this extra yardage will likely suit Executive Producer.

1st (2) (11/2 +45%)Beautiful Rainbow |
11/2(+45%) | (2) Beautiful Rainbow 11/2, Similar level to debut beaten 7l in a novice at Ascot last time; speed in pedigree; type to do better when handicapping. Moderate form at Beverley and Ascot (both 5f, good); likely to need a significant step up on that and will make greater appeal once she has a handicap mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (5/2 +44%)Cheeky Chesca |
5/2(+44%) | (8) Cheeky Chesca 5/2, Ran to form when second beaten a neck in a maiden at Redcar latest; stays 6f, acts in good, fast ground should suit action; needs more. Has improved with each start and was collared late on her most recent start at Redcar (6f, good to firm); should be competitive and the drop back to 5f may help; each-way player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (10/1 +29%)Heffernan Kingdom |
10/1(+29%) | (3) Heffernan Kingdom 10/1, Some promise on debut beaten 4l in a maiden at Thirsk on debut; effective 5f on good; improvement likely. Easy to back on debut when showing minor promise in finishing under 4l sixth at Thirsk (5f, good) last month; could be a player if she can step up on that.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (125/1 -279%)Mardy Bum |
125/1(-279%) | (1) Mardy Bum 125/1, Again failed to beat a rival well beaten in a maiden at Redcar latest; hood first time; speedily-bred; poor so far, may need more time. 9-1 for both starts but has finished last each time, her debut effort (5f, AW) being better than her more recent turf start (5f, good to firm); much more needed for the first-time hood.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (14/1 -180%)Someone To Love |
14/1(-180%) | (5) Someone To Love 14/1, 6 May; 25,000 euros St Mark's Basilica filly; half-sister to Consolidate, fair at 8f; dam very useful at 8f as a 2yo; probably best watched on debut. 25,000euros yearling; fourth foal; dam 1m/8.5f AW winner (including 2yo/US stakes), half-sister to Canadian 1m2f Grade 1 winner Blond Me; trainer having a good season with 2yos on turf, 7-24, so the betting needs a check for clues.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (9) (12/1 -50%)Lairy Mary |
12/1(-50%) | (9) Lairy Mary 12/1, Ran to form down in grade, hit the line well when winning a claimer at Beverley by 3/4l last time; effective 5f on good to soft and good to firm; needs more back in a novice. Built on some minor promise when breaking her duck in a Beverley claimer (5f, good to firm) last week, when racing prominently; will probably need more to win this but looks an each-way player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (11/4 +31%)Isabella Blue |
11/4(+31%) | (4) Isabella Blue 11/4, 4 Apr; 25,000 euros Blue Point filly; half-sister to Summer Evening, moderate at 9f; looks an unlikely winner on debut. 25,000euros yearling; third foal; dam unraced half-sister to Canadian 1m 2yo Grade 1 winner Capla Temptress, out of 1m winning half-sister to 1m2f Group 3 winner Stotsfold; trainer combination 9% with turf 2yos; market check advised.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (50/1 -25%)Angel Steps |
50/1(-25%) | (7) Angel Steps 50/1, 4 Mar; 3,000 euros Alkumait filly; half-sister to Indigo Dawn, useful at 6f; dam poor at 12f; up against it on debut. 3,000euros yearling; fifth foal; half-sister to winners Indigo Dawn (6f 2yo; RPR 74), Jaadil (2m2f hurdle), Making Magic (Italian 7.5f) and Scatola Chiusa (Italian 1m-1m4f including 2yo); dam maiden (44) half-sister to Group-placed 6f 2yo winner Unilit; trainer not known for 2yo winners.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (6) (18/5 -60%)Tzaritza |
18/5(-60%) | (6) Tzaritza 18/5, 20 Feb; £38,000 breeze-up purchase by Starman; half-sister to Rich Glory, useful at 6f; dam useful at 5f as a 2yo; major player on debut. £38,000 2yo; third foal; half-sister to 6f 2yo winner Rich Glory (RPR 79); dam placed twice at 7f in France, half-sister to winners Second City (Canadian 1m1f Grade 3) and Lunch Hour (US 7.5f); trainer 5-23 with 2yos on turf this year; interesting newcomer.. |

Lairy Mary made the most of a drop into claiming company when opening her account at Beverley recently and she must enter the reckoning given her current heart. However, CHEEKY CHESCA's latest second at Redcar could prove to be stronger form and she's fancied to make it fourth time lucky. 38,000-pound purchase Tzaritza is also worth a second look on her debut, with the booking of Oisin Murphy catching the eye.

1st (1) (4/1 +20%)Belsito |
4/1(+20%) | (1) Belsito 4/1, Ran to form beaten 1/2l off this mark at Southwell last time; effective 6f, suited by cut, acts on AW; back in form, forecast rain a plus. Won two in a row over C\u0026D last September (good to soft/soft) and returned to form with very close fourth at Southwell (6f, AW) in April on his second start of the season; slow ground would be a major boost to his claims.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (11/2 +8%)Thunderstorm Katie |
11/2(+8%) | (8) Thunderstorm Katie 11/2, Ran to form beaten 1 1/4l off a 3lb lower mark at Ayr last time; top course trainer; effective 5/6f, acts on any; good chance if building on latest couple of starts. Two 5f wins last October (good/AW) and runner-up over that trip on last two starts (good/good to firm), finishing well each time and shaping as though this return to 6f is well worth exploring; could play a leading role if conditions suit; best turf efforts have come on good/good to firm.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (14/1 -133%)Impressor |
14/1(-133%) | (4) Impressor 14/1, Outpaced, never threatened beaten 5l in a handicap at Carlisle last time; effective 5/6f, likes soft, acts on good; unreliable but back below last winning mark. Underwhelming on his three starts since promising reappearance run at Doncaster in March; however, he has a strong record at Hamilton and is running here for the first time this season; slow ground would be a positive.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (66/1 -65%)Invincible Ruby |
66/1(-65%) | (9) Invincible Ruby 66/1, Never competitive having missed break beaten 8 1/2l in a handicap at Carlisle last time; suited by 7f, acts on sound surface; out of form. Won at Catterick (7f, good to firm) last July when 6lb higher; a market check is advised but she's struggled so far this season.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (9/1 +73%)Wish This |
9/1(+73%) | (5) Wish This 9/1, Made too much use of well beaten in a handicap at Carlisle latest; effective at 6-8f, acts on soft, good and AW; out of form this term. Won in first-time blinkers at Newcastle (6f, AW) last November but he's been well below that level in cheekpieces/blinkers on AW/turf on his three outings this spring.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (10) (4/1 +43%)Iris Dancer |
4/1(+43%) | (10) Iris Dancer 4/1, Below form up in class under change of tactics beaten 8l in a handicap at Carlisle last time; effective 5/6f, acts on any, goes well at Hamilton; gets behind and needs a significant pace collapse. Her form has been mixed this season and she was soundly beaten at Carlisle last time; however, she's running at Hamilton for the first time this year and nine of her 11 wins have come over C\u0026D; she's 10lb lower than when winning here last August and could bounce back with a bold show.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (15/2 -114%)Pickersgill |
15/2(-114%) | (3) Pickersgill 15/2, Returned to form landing a handicap by 2l off a 5lb lower mark at Southwell last time; off a short-break; effective 5-7f, suited by cut, acts on AW; remains fairly treated on Irish form. Beaten a neck at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in March on third stable start then went one better at Southwell (7f, AW); won on turf at the Curragh (6f, soft) last March and this stiff 6f could be a good fit; she's one to consider, especially if slow ground prevails.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (9/4 +50%)Kelpie Grey |
9/4(+50%) | (2) Kelpie Grey 9/4, Made too much use of beaten 2 1/4l off a 1lb higher mark at Ayr last time; top course jockey/trainer combination; enjoys making it; effective 6-8f, acts on any; must bounce back. His losing sequence goes back 16 races to May 2024 and his form has gone the wrong way; however, he's dropped to a dangerous mark and ran respectably when fifth of nine over 7f at Ayr a fortnight ago (11-8 favourite), when shaping as though the return to 6f may help; not ruled out.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (6) (22/1 -38%)Carlton And Co |
22/1(-38%) | (6) Carlton And Co 22/1, Taken on up front and did too much too soon up in trip, needed run down the field in a handicap at Catterick most recent; effective 6/7f, acts on good to soft, good to firm and AW; remains competitively handicapped. Down the field on last month's reappearance at Catterick but may have needed that run; won three times in the second half of last year (6f/7f, good/AW) and is not discounted; has run well on good to soft going.. |

Having supplemented a close-up second at Wolverhampton with a victory over 7f at Southwell 58 days ago, Pickersgill merits respect in her follow-up bid. That said, a 5lb rise in the ratings and drop back in distance is a slight concern and KELPIE GREY is preferred. Jim Goldie has his string in fine fettle and his inmate looked like he would appreciate a return to 6f when weakening late on over further at Ayr. Thunderstorm Katie is the pick of the remainder.

1st (3) (10/3 +17%)Tiger Orchid |
10/3(+17%) | (3) Tiger Orchid 10/3, Ran to form beaten 3 1/4l off this mark at Huntingdon last time; effective 3m on good; in form, hurdles mark generous. Four good efforts from as many starts for current connections, though once again wasn't quite able to convert a winning opportunity at Huntingdon latest (3m1f, good to firm); fair claims off an unchanged mark, and ought to cope with any rain.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (6/4 +8%)Secret Trix |
6/4(+8%) | (2) Secret Trix 6/4, Ran to form 11l third in a handicap hurdle here most recent run; wants 3m, acts on soft and good; back in form, mark fair. C\u0026D record of 31133 includes a soft-ground win off 9lb higher almost two years ago and last month's perfectly serviceable staying-on 10l third in 0-145 company; faces an easier-looking task this afternoon.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (15/2 +6%)Belvedere Blast |
15/2(+6%) | (5) Belvedere Blast 15/2, Outpaced, never threatened down the field in a handicap hurdle at Catterick most recent; usually held up; effective 2m-2m7f, acts on good to soft, good, likes Market Rasen; bounce back needed. Five out of seven hurdles wins have been recorded in the month of June; mark and trip fine, but although once a winner after 151 days out his record following an absence is a bit mixed overall.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (7/1 +13%)Breezethroughlife |
7/1(+13%) | (7) Breezethroughlife 7/1, Well held by better handicapped pair 26l third in a handicap hurdle at Huntingdon most recent run; effective 2-3m, acts on good; inconsistent but fair mark on spring form. December's Doncaster second (3m, good to soft) suggested a sound future as a stayer, so it's disappointing he has not always seen out mostly shorter trips since, beaten 26l over almost 2m5f latest.. |

14/1(+44%) | (8) Faded Fantasy 14/1, Ran to form but ultimately held in better race well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Newbury latest; returning from a break; sound surface suits over staying trips; stiff mark after productive summer last year. Three good-ground wins at up to 3m2f during a profitable 2025, all off at least 9lb lower; yet to defy a break in excess of 45 days, so absence since January cannot rate a plus.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (33/1 -175%)Top Coeur |
33/1(-175%) | (4) Top Coeur 33/1, Likely found ground too quick well beaten in a handicap hurdle here latest; effective 2m, acts with cut; ex-Irish, might do better now handicapping but conditions a worry again. Not seeing out his races at all convincingly this year, beaten 54l in a 2m4f 0-125 handicap here latest (2m4f, good); overlooked.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (9/2 +0%)Mammies Boy |
9/2(+0%) | (6) Mammies Boy 9/2, Returned to form on chase debut beaten 2l off this mark at Exeter last time; effective 2m5f, acts on good; below last win mark and could go well if stamina holds up. Despite again hanging left may have gone closer than a 2l third at Exeter latest (2m6f, good) but for whacking two out; stayers' trip asks a new question, but some appeal whilst still just below a winning mark.. |

Placed yet again when third over C&D last time, Secret Trix looks to be treading water off his current mark. Tiger Orchid is another in need of some respite from the handicapper judged on his recent efforts, but MAMMIES BOY has returned to a potentially lenient mark. A winner at Warwick last spring, Nick Scholfield's charge gave notice a return to winning ways may be imminent when third at Exeter, and he gets the nod.

1st (4) (6/4 +8%)Reigning Queen |
6/4(+8%) | (4) Reigning Queen 6/4, Confirmed debut level up in trip when second beaten 2l in a novice at Yarmouth latest; effective 5/6f on soft and AW; slightly drop in trip should suit, good chance. Has shown some promise in two starts (5f, AW; 6f, soft), finishing second at Yarmouth last time; could appreciate this slightly shorter trip and is respected from a top yard.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (14/1 -211%)Black Orchid |
14/1(-211%) | (2) Black Orchid 14/1, Some promise on debut, hit the line well runner-up beaten 7l in a novice at Ripon only start; top course trainer; effective 6f on good; big player here with improvement likely. 7-4 on debut at Redcar (6f, good) last month when not getting the smoothest of passages but kept on for second behind a 7l winner; can probably step up on that.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (18/1 -200%)Overbudget |
18/1(-200%) | (3) Overbudget 18/1, Below form back on turf and tried in a tongue-tie beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap at Windsor last time; effective at 5f, acts on good to soft and AW; chance if bouncing back. Showed some promise when second on her first two starts (both 5f, good to soft) last season; not as good on her reappearance at Wolverhampton (5f, AW) or on handicap debut at Windsor (5f, good to firm) latest; each-way player if back to her best.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (16/1 +0%)Slot |
16/1(+0%) | (5) Slot 16/1, Ran to form on handicap debut when fourth beaten 2l in a handicap at Doncaster latest; effective 5/6f on good to soft and AW; slight drop in trip might help back in a novice. Has shown promise on several occasions, matching her best form on handicap debut at Doncaster (6f, good to soft) latest; more needed to win but looks an each-way player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (5/4 +72%)Veil Of Clouds |
5/4(+72%) | (6) Veil Of Clouds 5/4, Pinatubo filly; half-sister to Mon Na Slieve, smart at 5f as a 2yo; dam high-class at 8f; from a leading yard and could have a say on debut. Second foal; half-sister to 5f winner Mon Na Slieve (including 2yo; RPR 96); dam 7f/1m winner (including AW; 109), sister to Group-placed 6f 2yo/1m2f winner Artigiano; interesting pedigree and no surprise if she acquits herself well for leading yard.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (15/2 -25%)Viviana |
15/2(-25%) | (7) Viviana 15/2, Similar level to debut 3 1/2l third in a novice at Yarmouth most recent run; effective at 6f on soft and good to firm; needs more. Showed promise when sticking on for third on debut (6f, good to firm) at Redcar; not as good on soft ground at Yarmouth latest but could be involved if bouncing back.. |

Veil Of Clouds is a half-sister to triple 5f winner Mon Na Slieve and market confidence behind her on debut would be interesting. That said, REIGNING QUEEN has posted two creditable efforts in defeat on both outings and she rates as the one to beat. Although Overbudget was underwhelming on her eighth-placed handicap bow at Windsor last month, she could make her presence felt reverting to novice company, while lightly-raced duo Black Orchid and Viviana aren't easily dismissed either.

1st (6) (16/5 -28%)Pearl Eye |
16/5(-28%) | (6) Pearl Eye 16/5, Ran to form up in trip beaten 3 1/4l off a 1lb higher mark at Ayr last time; top course jockey/trainer combination; suited by 7/8f, gets 9f, acts on any; chance if building on latest couple of starts. Awarded the Spring Mile at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) last March and he's fully 12lb lower today; ran well in defeat at Ayr last month on first two starts for this yard (1m/1m1f, good to firm) and he's on the shortlist.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (18/5 +40%)Obito |
18/5(+40%) | (1) Obito 18/5, Needed run beaten 8 1/2l in a handicap here last time; usually held up; effective 8-10f, acts on heavy, good; in excellent form last term, must leave reappearance form behind. Always towards the rear on reappearance over C\u0026D (good) three weeks ago but may have needed that run; won twice last summer (1m/1m2f, good; including here) and he's on a competitive mark on last autumn's form (including on soft ground); he can be in the mix if bouncing back.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (10/3 +26%)Draupnir |
10/3(+26%) | (7) Draupnir 10/3, Keen in first time hood, never threatened ridden to see out the trip beaten 4 1/4l in a handicap here last time; effective 7-8.5f, possibly not farther, acts on soft, good and good to firm; mark still fair, threat if stamina holds up. Won at Thirsk (7f, soft) last September and reappeared with promising third there (7f, good) in April; kept on for fifth over this C\u0026D (good) three weeks ago in a race that favoured those ridden more prominently, and the first-time hood may not have suited (left off today); possible player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (15/2 +6%)Highland Olly |
15/2(+6%) | (5) Highland Olly 15/2, Scored by 1/2l off a 3lb lower mark at Ripon penultimate start; well held up in class off revised mark 15th beaten 12l off 76 last time, same mark here; enjoys making it; effective 7/8f, acts on soft and good to firm; career high mark and stamina concerns up in trip. Made all twice in a row in April (8.3f/1m, good); down the field at York (7f, good) but that was in a big field and he raced wide; could bounce back with a bold show if conditions suit (well beaten on soft going last November but displayed signs of promise on such ground early in career).. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (7/2 +46%)Qitaal |
7/2(+46%) | (3) Qitaal 7/2, Too much to do having met plenty of trouble beaten 2l off this mark at Leicester last time; effective 10f, acts on soft, good to firm and AW; on long losing run but down to attractive mark and could build on latest. Inconsistent and without a win since September 2024; however, he was denied a clear run when second of six at Leicester (1m2f, good to firm) recently and can be in the shake-up if backing that up; versatile ground-wise.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (25/1 -14%)Mr Lincoln |
25/1(-14%) | (4) Mr Lincoln 25/1, Travelled, ran to form 9l third in a handicap hurdle at Aintree most recent run; effective 2m, acts on soft, good; needs to build on recent revival over hurdles. Twice placed over hurdles this spring (2m1f, good to soft/good), with a heavy defeat on the Flat at Musselburgh (1m6f, soft) in between; however, it's possible this shorter trip will be a better fit for him in this code.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (22/1 -38%)Tee Aitch Aye |
22/1(-38%) | (9) Tee Aitch Aye 22/1, Continued in poor form back down in trip down the field in a handicap here most recent; effective 9/10f, acts on heavy and good; below last winning mark but struggling this term. Won over C\u0026D (soft) last September when 1lb higher and he's one to watch in the betting, especially if the ground is on the slow side; however, he's been tailed off on both starts this season.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (20/1 0%)Penelope's Sister |
20/1(0%) | (8) Penelope's Sister 20/1, Unsuited by way race developed beaten 8 1/4l in a handicap at Ayr last time; top course trainer; suited by 1m, acts on soft and good; below last winning mark but struggling so far this term. Won here in 2024 and added three wins at Ayr last year; she's below her last winning mark but has been well beaten on both outings this spring and a major turnaround is necessary.. |

ZOWAL enjoyed a drop in class when digging deep to score at Pontefract in April and a 2lb rise looks workable. The son of Zarak is a potential improver going back up to 1m1f and he ticks plenty of the right boxes. Qitaal arrives on the back of a solid second at Leicester and he's feared most, ahead of Obito, who is entitled to build on last month's eighth-placed reappearance over C&D.

1st (2) (11/5 -60%)Regal Renaissance |
11/5(-60%) | (2) Regal Renaissance 11/5, Ran to form at favoured venue suited by positive ride landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 3lb lower mark at Ludlow last time; effective 2m4f, suited by decent ground; consistent sort but has stamina to prove. 2-13 over fences when trained by Henry Daly, the latter win gained at Ludlow (2m4f, good) last month; yet fully to convince stamina-wise over 3m but, having recently changed hands for £22,000, still has strong claims on this stable debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (7/2 +36%)Queens Wish |
7/2(+36%) | (4) Queens Wish 7/2, No obvious excuse when fourth beaten 35l in a handicap chase at Southwell latest; effective 2m-3m1f, acts on good to soft and good; consistent until latest. 1-10 for current stable over the last year, the win gained off today's mark at Southwell (3m, good to soft) in November; needs to bounce back from a disappointing effort over that C\u0026D last month but ran quite well in a valuable series final two starts ago and is of interest here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (2/1 0%)That's Nice |
2/1(0%) | (1) That's Nice 2/1, Tired after late error 11l third in a handicap chase here most recent run; effective 2 1/2-3m; finishing efforts a slight worry but on a good mark on winter novice form. 2-3 as a novice hurdler during 2024-25 season but 0-5 and generally disappointing since switched to chasing in November; didn't run badly when third of four in higher-grade event here (2m4f, good) last month, though, and is still unexposed over this sort of trip.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (85/40 +53%)I Am The Moon |
85/40(+53%) | (3) I Am The Moon 85/40, Outpaced, no match for winner, not disgraced when second beaten 9l in a handicap hurdle at Stratford latest; effective 2 1/2-3m; inconsistent but on a dangerous mark judged on hurdle form. Failed to convince as a chaser in two attempts at last season; subsequently won over hurdles (2m3f, soft) but her form dipped afterwards; took step back in right direction when well-held second in four-runner hurdle last month (3m2f, good to firm) but needs another on this return to fences.. |

Just the four runners declared but it's still competitive stuff, with Nicky Henderson saddling That's Nice, who is taken to improve for going back up in trip. I Am The Moon and Queens Wish aren't out of it, but REGAL RENAISSANCE is the safe play on the basis that she is clearly on good terms with herself. Jack Jones' mare finished a neck second at Stratford and then backed that performance up when going one better at Ludlow.

1st (6) (11/4 +8%)Nanoscience |
11/4(+8%) | (6) Nanoscience 11/4, Ran to form beaten 1 1/4l off this mark at Newmarket last time; effective 7/8f on a sound surface; more to come in handicaps. Delivered on 2yo promise when winning Kempton maiden (7f, AW) on seasonal debut in April and was placed in quite valuable Newmarket handicap (7f, good to firm) last month; that latest piece of form reads well and she's a big player from the inside stall here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (20/1 +20%)Dream Illusion |
20/1(+20%) | (4) Dream Illusion 20/1, Never in it from off the pace 12th beaten 11l off 68 last time, same mark here; effective 7/8f, acts on soft, good and AW; yet to win on turf. Gained all four wins on Tapeta, the last three over 1m this year; well down the field when back on turf last month, though, and this drop back to 7f may not be ideal.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (9) (11/2 +45%)Come On Eibhlin |
11/2(+45%) | (9) Come On Eibhlin 11/2, Yard won this last year; ran to form beaten 2 1/2l off this mark at Windsor last time; effective 5/6f at 2yo, probably stays 8f now, suited by sound surface; down to a competitive mark. Posted sound effort when third at Windsor (1m, good to firm) 12 days ago and may benefit from this drop back in trip but she's not making any progress and others have more appealing profiles.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (13) (9/1 +10%)Seeing Stars |
9/1(+10%) | (13) Seeing Stars 9/1, Ran to form back from break beaten 1 1/2l off a 1lb higher mark at Wolverhampton last time; effective 7f, acts on AW; very consistent, good chance again. Runner-up three consecutive times before winning 7f Kempton (AW) maiden in January, and again ran well when placed on last month's handicap debut at Wolverhampton (7f, AW); could still have more to offer but is not drawn well for this turf debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (12) (11/1 -10%)Volendam |
11/1(-10%) | (12) Volendam 11/1, Back to form second beaten 1 1/4l off 60 last time, 2lb higher here; suited by 1m, acts on sound surface; chance if building on latest. Belatedly opened account with clear win at Bath (1m, good) in April, her 18th start, and rebounded from lesser effort when second at Nottingham (8.3f, good to soft) last month; has a tendency to race too freely, so this drop back in trip could be a good move; others have more potential, though.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (11/1 +31%)Albeseeingyer |
11/1(+31%) | (5) Albeseeingyer 11/1, Below form beaten 9l in a handicap at Leicester last time; suited by 7f, acts on any; bounce back needed. Left low-key seasonal debut behind when second at Leicester (7f, good; well backed) in April; remains on a good mark but was safely held when back at Leicester last month and is drawn wide here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (11) (4/1 +33%)Borjina |
4/1(+33%) | (11) Borjina 4/1, Improved for cosy win outclassing rivals down in class when winning a novice at Catterick by 2l last time; effective 7f, acts on good; progressing, remain competitive now handicapping. Unexposed after only two starts and justified heavy market support when readily winning Catterick novice (7f, good) on seasonal debut in April; judged on the subsequent exploits of the runner-up in handicaps, this filly could be on a lenient opening mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (10/1 -25%)Magic Box |
10/1(-25%) | (8) Magic Box 10/1, Below form when fourth beaten 16l in a handicap at Newmarket latest; effective 7f, acts on soft, good and AW; may have reached level. Dual 7f nursery winner from eight 2yo starts; might have more to offer this year but made underwhelming reappearance last month and has wide draw.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (7) (18/1 -50%)Lily Pearl |
18/1(-50%) | (7) Lily Pearl 18/1, Ran to form on return beaten 1 1/2l off this mark at Catterick last time; top course trainer; suited by 6f, acts on a sound surface; looks progressive, can again go well. Ended four-race 2yo campaign with win on nursery debut at Pontefract (6f, good to soft) and recovered from awkward start to finish third on last month's reappearance at Catterick (6f, good); upped in trip; shortlisted.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (2) (13/2 +74%)Folkene |
13/2(+74%) | (2) Folkene 13/2, Ran to form beaten 2 1/4l off a 1lb higher mark here last time; effective 7/8f, acts on any; chance if building on latest. Ex-French filly who won on last summer's British debut at Newmarket (7f, good to firm); launched this campaign with two perfectly respectable runs, the latter over C\u0026D, but others have more pressing claims all the same.. |

Having got the better of a solid yardstick at Catterick 43 days ago, an opening mark of 72 looks workable for BORJINA. Edward Bethell's filly was having just her second outing that day and she is still open to improvement.. Nanoscience arrives on the back of a respected third at Newmarket and a reproduction of that performance should see her in the mix once more, while Hilltop and Lily Pearl share similar profiles.

1st (1) (9/2 +36%)Diego Ventura |
9/2(+36%) | (1) Diego Ventura 9/2, Built on reappearance down in class beaten 4l off a 2lb higher mark at York last time; effective 7-10f, best form with give; high enough mark. He's tended to ply his trade in Group and Listed races and he was a Listed winner at Longchamp (7f, good to soft) last May; beaten just under 4l when seventh of 18 at York (1m, good) three weeks ago on his first handicap start and this is less competitive; could be in the mix.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (6/4 +8%)Eternal Force |
6/4(+8%) | (4) Eternal Force 6/4, Below form beaten 3l off this mark at Doncaster last time; trainer in form; off a short-break; suited by 1m, acts on good to soft, good and good to firm; could bounce back, but this mark clearly asks more. Made it 3-3 since being gelded (good to firm/good to soft) when winning by 3l at Haydock (1m) last October; reappeared with respectable seventh of 21 in the Lincoln at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) and this lightly raced 4yo could build on that latest effort today; firmly in calculations.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (3/1 +14%)Altareq |
3/1(+14%) | (7) Altareq 3/1, Ran to form on stable/handicap debut beaten 1 1/4l off a 3lb lower mark at York last time; top course trainer; effective 8-10f on a sound surface; formerly with the Gosdens, more to come in handicaps, should come on for latest. Went close in Newbury maiden (1m2f, good) last May on third and final outing for Gosdens and, having been detached early, he was a very promising third of 15 on his stable/handicap debut at York (1m2f, good) three weeks ago; well bred and could take a sizeable step forward from that latest effort.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (7/2 +46%)Theoryofeverything |
7/2(+46%) | (5) Theoryofeverything 7/2, Ran to form beaten 3l off a 1lb higher mark at York last time; effective at 8f, acts on soft and good; on last winning mark, generally consistent. Ran well when fifth of 18 at York (1m, good) three weeks ago on his second start of the season; his four wins (one here) have come on soft going so slower ground today would aid his cause; could be a contender.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (20/1 +0%)Al Mubhir |
20/1(+0%) | (3) Al Mubhir 20/1, Needed run beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap at Thirsk last time; effective 8-10f, acts on any; retained ability worries after spell in Australia. Listed win at Sandown in July 2024 and well treated on that form; however, he drew a blank during his 2025 Australian campaign and was soundly beaten on last month's stable debut in the Thirsk Hunt Cup; something to prove.. |

ETERNAL FORCE was hugely progressive towards the end of last season and was by no means disgraced in seventh, beaten just two and a half lengths, on his return in the Lincoln at Doncaster. Entitled to have come forward for that outing and with William Haggas' horses in such good form, the four-year-old makes plenty of appeal. Theoryofeverything and the unexposed Altareq are others to bear in mind.

1st (7) (11/4 +31%)Brionywells |
11/4(+31%) | (7) Brionywells 11/4, Improved up in trip back from a break landing a handicap by 7l off a 7lb lower mark at Worcester last time; trainer in form; effective 2m4f-2m7f, may get bit further, acts on good; unexposed as a stayer but may find this on the sharp side. Major personal best on last week's return from eight months out, staying on well late to take a 2m7f Worcester novice handicap (good); little to choose between her peak previous RPRs with or without cut, so she may well cope if the rain arrives; player despite the penalty.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (7/1 +22%)Bells Of Ufford |
7/1(+22%) | (4) Bells Of Ufford 7/1, Ran to form when fourth beaten 5l in a handicap hurdle at Chepstow latest; off a short-break; effective 2m-2m4f, acts on good; form in and out. Consolidated rather than improved upon previous best efforts during last season, despite the addition of cheekpieces; remains on a tempting mark, but significant rain wouldn't be welcomed.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (7/2 +65%)The Best Way |
7/2(+65%) | (5) The Best Way 7/2, Needed run 31l third in a handicap hurdle at Hexham most recent run; effective around 2m on heavy and good to soft; more to come, could leave reappearance form behind. Determined last-gasp Newcastle winner in February 2025 (2m1f, good to soft), and recent Hexham third on sole run since was much more promising than the 31l distance beaten might imply (rallied after late blunder); may be a case of whether this longer trip is within range now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (80/1 -142%)Pepite De Saphir |
80/1(-142%) | (3) Pepite De Saphir 80/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle here latest where needed run; usually held up; effective 2 1/2m, wants decent ground; all to prove after lay off. Career already subject to two significant interruptions, and offered little in a debuted tongue-tie when starting out for current connections here last month (2m7f, good).. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (9) (11/2 +35%)Bowling Shane |
11/2(+35%) | (9) Bowling Shane 11/2, Ran to form on handicap debut 4l third in a handicap hurdle at Ffos Las most recent run; effective 2m, acts on good; may get bit further over hurdles. Better round of jumping inspired a major uplift on last month's handicap debut at Ffos Las (2m, good), shaping as if this longer trip might give him more chance of defying a still ungenerous-looking mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (2/1 +67%)Saxon Cross |
2/1(+67%) | (2) Saxon Cross 2/1, Improved on final qualifying run but looked in need of stiffer test when fourth beaten 5 1/4l in a maiden hurdle here latest; effective 2m1f, acts on good; can do better now handicapping over further. Last month's staying-on 5l fourth in a 2m novice here was given a boost by the third at Southwell two days ago; this is a handy initial mark set against his bumper best; kept almost exclusively to good ground so far.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (18/1 +10%)Hillsin |
18/1(+10%) | (1) Hillsin 18/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Fontwell latest where needed run; effective 2 1/2-2 3/4m, suited by sound surface; generally consistent. The consistency of his summer 2024 campaign has long deserted him, the return to the mark of October's Exeter win (2m2f, good to firm) owed to three poor runs since; others convince more.. |

Beorma must be taken seriously if turning up here following her proposed engagements earlier in the week at Southwell and Warwick. However, with her participation not guaranteed, it could be worth looking elsewhere and BRIONYWELLS couldn't have won any easier at Worcester last time. She's got a 7lb penalty for that but is preferred to Saxon Cross and Bowling Shane.

1st (2) (11/10 +37%)Ciao Capo |
11/10(+37%) | (2) Ciao Capo 11/10, Hit the line well having had to wait for a run, relished 10f landing a handicap by 1 1/4l off a 3lb lower mark at Beverley last time; top course jockey/trainer combination; effective 8-10f, acts on good to soft, good to firm and AW; more to come at this trip. 1m AW winner; first turf win when upped to 1m2f at Beverley (good to firm) in May; 3lb rise suggests he is still well treated; big player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (5/2 +29%)Stepanov |
5/2(+29%) | (4) Stepanov 5/2, Ran to form 7l third in a handicap at Nottingham most recent run; effective 10/11f on good to soft and AW; more to come. Peak effort came when second on his second start at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) in March; has not proved as effective since, including on handicap debut at Nottingham (1m2f, good to soft) latest; drops 2lb and is on a competitive mark if able to return to his best.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (16/1 -78%)Haltonwood |
16/1(-78%) | (7) Haltonwood 16/1, Ran to form on handicap debut tried in a tongue-tie beaten 2 1/2l off a 1lb lower mark at Doncaster last time; effective 1m, acts on good to soft and AW; possible improver upped to 10f. Unplaced in four starts but minor promise when beaten under 3l on his handicap debut at Doncaster (1m, good to soft; first-time tongue-tie) latest; up 1lb; step up in trip looks a positive and he wouldn't need a huge amount of improvement to get involved; each-way player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (9/2 +36%)Dalamara |
9/2(+36%) | (8) Dalamara 9/2, Back to best when second beaten 4l in a handicap at Ripon latest; effective at 8f, acts on sound surface and AW; can again go well. 1m AW winner last December when 4lb lower; has bettered that effort in defeat on both subsequent starts on turf; step up in trip could help tease out a bit of improvement; each-way player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (22/1 -144%)Rogue Desire |
22/1(-144%) | (3) Rogue Desire 22/1, Bit below best well beaten in a novice at Southwell latest; in good form prior; tongue-tie first time; effective 7f on AW; improvement needed now handicapping up in trip. Showed some promise on debut when third at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) but took a couple of backward steps since then; tongue-tie fitted for stable debut; perhaps best watched.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (14/1 -56%)Sovereign Bright |
14/1(-56%) | (5) Sovereign Bright 14/1, Poor run down the field in a handicap at Musselburgh most recent; effective 7-10f, acts on good to firm and AW; bounce back needed. 0-9; best effort came as a juvenile when a close second at Doncaster (7f, good to firm; RPR 70); placed four times since and is slipping back to a more competitive mark; well below par latest but each-way player on best efforts.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (18/1 -112%)Skirt Around |
18/1(-112%) | (6) Skirt Around 18/1, Never in it from off the pace after a wind op well beaten in a handicap at Newcastle latest; second run after wind op; significant jockey booking; effective 7f on AW; hard to fancy. Showed a degree of promise in a fillies' novice event at Newcastle on her third start (7f, AW); may have needed last month's handicap debut after a break, when upped to 1m2f at the same track (nibbled at in the market); drops 3lb; Oisin Murphy booked; check the market for further clues.. |

It could pay to stick with the progressive CIAO CAPO, who ended last season with a victory and had a subsequent winner back in third when scoring nicely over 1m2f at Beverley most recently. That was is first start over 1m2f and, with further improvement a distinct possibility, he can go in again. Dalamara looks worth a try over this trip having found one too good over a mile at Ripon, while Doncaster fourth Haltonwood has plenty of scope.

1st (1) (17/2 -89%)Parisiac |
17/2(-89%) | (1) Parisiac 17/2, Struggled to get involved again beaten 7 1/2l in a handicap at Newmarket last time; in good form prior; effective 5/6f, acts on any but likes it soft; in form, doesn't do any more than necessary. Multiple winner who lacks a recent run but he's consistent in the main and not handicapped out of it; market could be informative.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (3/1 +33%)Call To Action |
3/1(+33%) | (2) Call To Action 3/1, Ran to form but well held up in class beaten 4l in a handicap at Thirsk last time; in good form prior; effective 5/6f on a sound surface; better of late in blinkers, can go well. Ended 2025 with a win and better than ever when a close second of eight at Pontefract (5f, good) on reappearance; Thirsk was disappointing but that was a Class 4, so this is easier.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (7/2 +0%)Hi Lord |
7/2(+0%) | (5) Hi Lord 7/2, Back to best, good attitude down in trip landing a handicap by a short-head off a 3lb lower mark here last time; effective at 5f, probably acts on any; respected after a small rise. Headgear removed and doubled his tally with a narrow win over C\u0026D (good; 3lb lower) a month ago; consistency hasn't always been his forte but clearly a possible contender.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (17/2 +6%)Lion's House |
17/2(+6%) | (3) Lion's House 17/2, Below form up in class beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap here last time; effective 5/6f, suited by a sound surface; just 2lb above last winning mark but unreliable of late. Has only won on Tapeta and spends a lot of his time at Newcastle; finished well behind in his last two races on turf.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (9/2 +0%)Water Of Leith |
9/2(+0%) | (4) Water Of Leith 9/2, Scored by 3l off a 3lb lower mark at Wolverhampton in March; met trouble at key stage, too much to do fifth beaten 2l off 67 last time, 1lb lower here; top course jockey/trainer combination; effective 5/6f, probably acts on any; respected off this mark. Won at Wolverhampton (6f, Class 5; 6-4 favourite) in March but below that level in three subsequent starts, 2l fifth of eight at Musselburgh (5f; 15-2) latest; vulnerable on those performances.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (9/2 -80%)Harb |
9/2(-80%) | (6) Harb 9/2, Returned to form suited by stiff track landing a handicap by 3/4l off a 4lb lower mark at Carlisle last time; best form 5f, acts on any; remains on workable mark but inconsistent of late. Hit and miss but it was career win number nine when narrowly scoring at Carlisle 17 days ago (5f, good), coming from off the pace; 4lb higher here.. |

There are a couple of last-start winners to consider in here as Harb did it well at Carlisle and Hi Lord was really determined over C&D. Both make plenty of appeal, but it might be worth chancing CALL TO ACTION, who performed better than his finishing position suggests at Thirsk and was in winning/placed form before that at Ripon and Pontefract.

1st (1) (9/1 +55%)Immortal Fame |
9/1(+55%) | (1) Immortal Fame 9/1, Got racing early, did too much too soon when fourth beaten 24l in a handicap hurdle at Southwell latest; off a short-break; effective 2 1/2-3m; mark looks high enough. 2m4f winner here over hurdles and fences with a little give underfoot, and possible excuses on both starts since his most recent success elsewhere (holding ground, pace battle); remains above any winning mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (11/10 +76%)Wheresmemoneygone |
11/10(+76%) | (4) Wheresmemoneygone 11/10, Ran to form, taken on up front and did plenty early beaten 7l in a handicap chase at Newbury last time; in good form prior; off a short-break; effective 2m5f-3m2f on a sound surface; steadily progressive. Made all in debuted cheekpieces at Taunton in February (2m5f, good to soft); 7lb rise for posting that course record time was fair, and the subsequent Newbury defeat instead looked owed to the same sort of fight for the early lead which Joltin N Jiving might yet give him here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (11/4 +8%)Karnaval Point |
11/4(+8%) | (3) Karnaval Point 11/4, Did it readily, ran to form on chase debut landing a handicap by 6l off a 9lb lower mark at Worcester last time; trainer in form; effective 2m2f-2m6f, acts with cut and on good; highly tried in France, may have more to offer new yard. Not hard pushed to score on last month's stable/British debut in a 2m4f Worcester handicap chase (good), for which a 9lb rise isn't harsh; French chase winner at up to 2m7f on slow ground, so appears to have an answer for most eventualities; player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (15/2 -7%)Joltin N Jiving |
15/2(-7%) | (2) Joltin N Jiving 15/2, Rallied gamely, returned to form in first time tongue tie beaten 4l off a 1lb lower mark at Doncaster last time; off a short-break; effective 2-2 1/2m, acts with cut; bit more needed to defy this mark but could improve for switch to fences. Resumed previous progression with last time's Doncaster handicap hurdle second (2m5f, good to soft) off 1lb lower; switched to front-running there, and would likely face competition for the lead if that strategy is persisted with today; retains tongue-tie for chasing debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (11/2 +35%)Yes Indeed |
11/2(+35%) | (5) Yes Indeed 11/2, Unable to dominate 23l third in a handicap chase at Bangor-on-Dee most recent run; effective 2-3m; needs drop in grade, likes to dominate, probably up against it here. Respectable efforts on both previous course visits, including a close fourth in this in 2024; weighted to strike, but must prove that the effects of the cheekpieces aren't on the wane after a sub-par latest effort.. |

Having travelled with real verve when making a winning stable debut at Worcester recently, there should be more to come from KARNAVAL POINT. Although the assessor has reacted in kind with a 9lb hike, David Pipe's string are in fantastic order and his gelding may follow up. Chase debutant Joltin N Jiving boasts a point-to-point victory and isn't taken lightly given his latest second over timber at Doncaster. Wheresmemoneygone may fare best of the remainder.

1st (7) (10/1 +0%)Obelix |
10/1(+0%) | (7) Obelix 10/1, Below form beaten 10l in a handicap at York last time; effective 7/8f, acts on sound surface; 4lb below last win mark. 7f and 1m winner on good; has been unable to return to the heights of his most recent win at York last July, in six subsequent starts; back on a handy mark; could be better for his reappearance and is not written off.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (8/1 +50%)It Just Takes Time |
8/1(+50%) | (8) It Just Takes Time 8/1, Didn't get home back up in trip beaten 6 1/4l in a handicap at York last time; effective 5-7f, acts on any; bounce back needed. Prolific winner at up to 7.5f, on all types of ground; 3lb lower than when last scoring at Beverley last September and, with his trainer among the winners, don't be surprised if he returns to form.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (11) (12/1 +0%)Orne |
12/1(+0%) | (11) Orne 12/1, Below form back down in trip beaten 8l in a handicap at York last time; suited by 6/7f, likes give, acts on AW; bounce back needed. 7f turf (heavy) and AW winner but without success since 2023; inconsistent but his better efforts of the last 12 months would give him each-way claims from this mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (11/8 +50%)Inspired |
11/8(+50%) | (9) Inspired 11/8, Travelled, not best of runs, should have finished closer beaten 2l off a 1lb higher mark at York last time; effective 7/8f, acts on good and AW; good chance if building on latest. 1m AW winner last December, his peak effort; not far off that level at York latest (7f, good) after being gelded and having a break; drops 1lb; interesting.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (11/2 +45%)Stratocracy |
11/2(+45%) | (2) Stratocracy 11/2, Ran to form up in grade off new mark beaten 6 1/2l in a handicap at York last time; in good form prior; effective 7/8f, acts on sound surface; needs more off this mark. Two-time turf and AW winner (7f-1m); 8lb higher than his highest winning mark and although he may have needed his reappearance, he may also now need a favour from the handicapper.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (11/1 -38%)Lady Mariko |
11/1(-38%) | (3) Lady Mariko 11/1, Again below form 11th beaten 6 1/4l off 80 last time, 1lb lower here; suited by 7/8f, acts on any; bounce back needed. Two-time turf winner over 6f-7f; career best came with an AW win at Kempton in April; well beaten in two 7f turf starts since; drops 1lb; more needed.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (5) (10/1 +9%)Madame De Sevigne |
10/1(+9%) | (5) Madame De Sevigne 10/1, Below form beaten 8 1/4l in a handicap at Musselburgh last time; cheekpieces first time; trainer in form; effective 7/8f, acts on soft, good to firm and AW; bounce back needed. Twice a 7f winner, including from this mark, in 2024; recent AW form has been significantly better than that on turf; cheekpieces now tried but she has a bit to prove on this surface.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (14) (28/1 -27%)Anthropologist |
28/1(-27%) | (14) Anthropologist 28/1, Never in it from off the pace fourth beaten 14l off 73 last time, 1lb lower here; top course jockey; suited by 7f, acts on a sound surface; needs more. 7f-1m AW winner and 7f turf winner (good) last year when 6lb lower; well below par on both AW and turf on his last two starts and he does have a little to prove after that.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (6) (14/1 +13%)Empirestateofmind |
14/1(+13%) | (6) Empirestateofmind 14/1, Below form down the field in a handicap at Thirsk most recent; effective 7-9f, acts on any; last win came in a seller. Prolific winner at 1m-1m1f on good or slower; inconsistent this season but has slipped to a workable mark and, if in the same form as at Ripon on penultimate start, he could have a say.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (13) (40/1 -21%)War Howl |
40/1(-21%) | (13) War Howl 40/1, Never in it from off the pace down the field in a handicap at York most recent; effective 7/8f, suited by a sound surface; easing in weights but bit to prove. Won back-to-back 7f races on sound surfaces last summer when with Mick Appleby but has been well below that level of form in all five starts for his current trainer; very handy mark but no recent signs of revival.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (15) (33/1 -106%)Symphony Of Joy |
33/1(-106%) | (15) Symphony Of Joy 33/1, Below form back up in trip beaten 9l in a handicap at Windsor last time; since undergone a wind op and has a tongue-tie first time; effective 7/8f; strong sort, could still improve. Best effort from four starts was on debut (7f, good); beaten 9l in a Windsor maiden handicap (1m, good to firm) when last seen; has since had wind surgery; probably best watched unless market vibes are strong.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (16) (20/1 -25%)Yaajooz |
20/1(-25%) | (16) Yaajooz 20/1, Never in it from off the pace beaten 5 1/2l in a handicap at Newcastle last time; effective 7/8f, acts on any; 1lb below last winning mark. Won a 1m selling handicap (good to firm) at Thirsk when with George Boughey; has gone close a couple of times for this yard, including here (1m, good) 12 months ago when 3lb higher; below par in both starts this season but not written off.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (10) (20/1 +20%)Catalyse |
20/1(+20%) | (10) Catalyse 20/1, Never in it from off the pace down the field in a handicap at Musselburgh most recent; effective around 7f, acts on good to soft and good to firm; mark easing but needs more. Debut 6f winner (good) who has been unable to better that effort or add to that success in 11 further starts; well beaten twice since switching to his current trainer but it's not long since this would have looked a very handy mark and he would be a big player if bouncing back.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (4) (200/1 -300%)Livonian |
200/1(-300%) | (4) Livonian 200/1, Well below from down the field in a handicap at Ayr most recent; tongue-tie first time; effective 1m-10f, acts on soft, good to soft and AW; bounce back needed. Odds-on 1m winner (good) at Windsor last September when with Ralph Beckett; has gone backwards in all three starts since, latest on debut for new yard; tongue-tie now tried; plenty to prove at present.. |

The winner of four of his last five outings, Roaring Ralph maintains appeal raised 3lb for his recent success at Ayr. However, INSPIRED would have finished a lot closer than fourth at York last time, where it not for being trapped behind a wall of horses and repeatedly denied a clear run. Karl Burke's four-year-old merits serious consideration off his current mark. Orne reverts to 7f with a shout and could make his presence felt.

1st (5) (7/4 +77%)Perseus Way |
7/4(+77%) | (5) Perseus Way 7/4, Returned to form back up in trip landing a handicap by 2l off a 43lb higher mark at Hexham last time; formerly useful hurdler, stays well on flat, suited by cut; mark a bit stiff now. Won over C\u0026D (good to soft) last September and he's just 1lb higher today; won over hurdles at Hexham (2m4f, soft) last month on his second start for this yard and there's lots to like about his claims.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (4/1 +11%)Sure And Stedfast |
4/1(+11%) | (3) Sure And Stedfast 4/1, Bit free up in trip but ran to form beaten 1 1/2l off this mark here last time; effective 8-11f, acts on good to soft and good to firm; form in and out, stamina to prove. Returned to form when third here (1m3f, good) last month on second run of the season; also effective on soft ground; could play a leading role if seeing out this longer trip, and there can be optimism on that score.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (2/1 -14%)Gallus Norman |
2/1(-14%) | (6) Gallus Norman 2/1, Improved up in trip under positive ride landing a handicap by 5 1/2l off a 6lb lower mark at Musselburgh last time; top course trainer; effective 12-16f on good; progressive, unexposed as a stayer. Improved form when runner-up on handicap debut at Musselburgh (1m4f, good) in April and easily made all back there (2m, good) a fortnight ago; he enjoyed the run of the race last time but a 6lb rise isn't harsh in view of this unexposed 7yo's dominance; has to be respected.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (12/1 -20%)Annandale |
12/1(-20%) | (8) Annandale 12/1, Too much to do having blown start beaten a head off a 1lb lower mark at Wolverhampton last time; top course trainer; returning from a break; effective 10-14f, acts on good to soft, good to firm and AW; running into form off reduced mark. Five-time turf winner who went close at Wolverhampton (1m6f, AW) in February when last seen; not discounted but it's possible this 8yo will improve for this first run since; question mark about slow ground nowadays.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (6/1 +45%)Jujubella |
6/1(+45%) | (4) Jujubella 6/1, Below form up in class, needed stiffer test down the field in a handicap at Ayr most recent; top course jockey; effective 10-12f, acts on any; form has tailed off. Well beaten last month on her two runs this year (1m2f/1m1f) and arrives with something to prove, but she's 4lb lower than when winning at Haydock (11.6f, good) last July and the step up in trip may be a positive; stable has won the last two runnings of this race with Two Auld Pals; not written off.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (33/1 -18%)Glasses Up |
33/1(-18%) | (7) Glasses Up 33/1, Outpaced, unsuited by drop in trip comfortably held in a handicap at Musselburgh last time; effective 9-13f, acts on good to soft and good to firm; veteran has dropped to workable mark but inconsistent of late. 11yo who was a close third over 1m1f at Ayr two starts ago and is versatile trip-wise; however, Ayr brings out the best in him and he was well beaten at Musselburgh last time; 0-4 here, with last visit coming last June.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (66/1 -560%)Kisiyra |
66/1(-560%) | (1) Kisiyra 66/1, Probably needed race beaten 2l off a 3lb higher mark at Thirsk last time; returning from long layoff; effective 8-11f, acts with cut; had plenty of issues, best watched until proving ability remains. Ex-Irish 5yo who is 0-8; not beaten far when fourth of six at 66-1 at Thirsk (1m4f, good) last June on her stable debut and sole outing of the season, but she's back from another absence today and it may be best to look elsewhere; wears a first-time tongue-tie.. |

Jim Goldie has a strong hand in this with GALLUS NORMAN marginally preferred. He has returned to action in fine form and, having easily won an amateur riders' race at Musselburgh a fortnight ago, he's taken to go in again with Lauren Young's allowance negating most of his 6lb rise. Annandale went close at Wolverhampton last time and he's not out of this, while recent hurdles winner Perseus Way also has a shout.

1st (3) (5/6 +76%)Ask A Sainte |
5/6(+76%) | (3) Ask A Sainte 5/6, Too much to do, did best of those coming from off the pace when fourth beaten 5l in a handicap hurdle here latest; effective 2m, acts on soft; more to come in handicaps. Unexposed 6yo who kept on from the rear for encouraging fourth behind Genbu over C\u0026D (good) on last month's stable/handicap debut; probably still has a bigger run in him and features prominently in calculations.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (33/1 -340%)Clever Relation |
33/1(-340%) | (6) Clever Relation 33/1, Pulled up in a novice hurdle at Ludlow latest; off a long absence; effective 12f, acts on good to soft; Flat winner still has stamina to prove for hurdling. Won on the Flat for Hughie Morrison in 2024 but was soundly beaten at triple-digit odds in three novice hurdles for Sheila Lewis in 2024-25 season; makes stable/handicap hurdle debut after 462-day absence; could be considered only if lively in the betting.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (3/1 +14%)Genbu |
3/1(+14%) | (7) Genbu 3/1, Improved a little on recent form benefitting from easy lead landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 4lb lower mark here last time; effective 2m on soft and good; back in form, remains well treated on best efforts. Came good for Sarah-Jayne Davies at third attempt, holding on well to make all over C\u0026D (good) last month; 4lb higher now but won't mind if there's rain about; respected in current form.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (9/2 -29%)Justus |
9/2(-29%) | (4) Justus 9/2, Ran to form when second beaten 5l in a handicap hurdle at Hexham latest; effective at 2m on soft, good; good mark on novice and Flat form, could build on latest. Out of form last season but seemed to have turned a corner when second off much-reduced mark at Hexham (2m, good) 16 days ago; player if in similar mood again here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|F| (2) (8/1 -78%)Zucayan |
8/1(-78%) | (2) Zucayan 8/1, Ran to form back from break just beaten by progressive rival beaten 2l off a 1lb lower mark at Ludlow last time; effective 2m, acts on decent ground; consistent over hurdles, goes well at Ludlow. Gained all three hurdle wins at Ludlow; kept on for second behind progressive rival there (2m, good) last month, after a break, but may not be ideally suited by this switch to a left-handed track.. |

There was enough encouragement in ASK A SAINTE's fourth over C&D last month to suggest that he can win a race of this nature. That was the six-year-old's first start under the tutelage of Olly Murphy and he makes grand appeal with Sean Bowen taking over in the plate. Zucayan has filled the runner-up spot on his last two outings and another good account is forecast, while fellow in-form rivals Genbu and Justus are feasible alternatives.

1st (2) (16/1 -60%)Enpassant |
16/1(-60%) | (2) Enpassant 16/1, Again below form seventh beaten 14l off 65 last time, 2lb lower here; suited by 7f, acts on good to soft, good to firm and AW; bounce back needed. Three 7f wins on AW elsewhere, most recently at Southwell in April; a quick return didn't pay off there next time and he was always behind when returned to turf at Leicester last month; has run well over C\u0026D in the past, though, so he may be more himself this time.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (6/1 -9%)Split Elevens |
6/1(-9%) | (5) Split Elevens 6/1, Back to best landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 3lb lower mark at Wolverhampton last time; trainer in form; effective 7f, acts on soft, good to firm and AW; capable off new mark. Three C\u0026D wins but perhaps even more effective on Tapeta; had the benefit of Jack Callan's claim when successful at Wolverhampton (7f) last month and although back up 3lb he's perfectly capable of finding another race off this mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (10/3 +5%)Yehudi |
10/3(+5%) | (4) Yehudi 10/3, Good attitude, back to best landing a handicap by 3/4l off a 4lb lower mark at Kempton last time; effective 7-9f, acts on soft and AW; respected off new mark. Has done most of his AW racing on Wolverhampton Tapeta but he's run his two best races on Kempton Polytrack (7f), going close in February and breaking his duck last month; back up 4lb; a likely contender on course debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (4/1 +75%)Dashing Donkey |
4/1(+75%) | (9) Dashing Donkey 4/1, Below form back on turf beaten 9l in a handicap at Yarmouth last time; enjoys making it; off a short-break; effective at 7/8f, acts on easy ground, good and AW; bounce back needed. All four wins from the front on turf, over 7f in 2024 and twice over 1m at Newmarket last summer; 0-9 on AW but he handles this surface and is not a forlorn hope on the return to 7f.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (11) (3/1 -20%)Adelaide Bay |
3/1(-20%) | (11) Adelaide Bay 3/1, Too much to do, hit the line well, should have finished closer beaten 1/2l off a 2lb lower mark at Southwell last time; usually held up; wide draw; effective at 7f, acts on AW; slipped below last win mark, good chance if building on latest. Three 7f wins on Polytrack and Tapeta between April and June in 2025 for this yard; right out of luck for different trainers from November onwards but he fell a long way in the weights and shot home to take a late second at Southwell (7f) 14 days ago; should make hay off current mark, 6lb lower than latest win, if overcoming a wide draw.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (12) (14/1 +13%)Twitch |
14/1(+13%) | (12) Twitch 14/1, Below form beaten 7l in a handicap here last time; in good form prior; suited by 7f, acts on fast ground and AW; on long losing run. Often leads; tight between him and Francisco on C\u0026D form in April but he couldn't hold his place on the turf track here since and this looks competitive, especially with others in the field who like to lead.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (12/1 +25%)Majestic Wave |
12/1(+25%) | (1) Majestic Wave 12/1, Lacked pace beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap here last time; wide draw; off a short-break; effective 6/7f, acts on AW and easy ground; up against it on recent form. Won 6f maiden at Navan as 2yo; promising yard debut over 6f on this track in February 2025 but he's mostly struggled since, thus the drop of 24lb in the weights since racing in Britain; should come on for his April reappearance and is one to keep an eye on for signs of a revival.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (8/1 +6%)Francisco |
8/1(+6%) | (7) Francisco 8/1, Below form sixth beaten 12l off 59 last time, same mark here; effective 6/7f, acts on fast ground and AW; bounce back needed. Two 7f handicap wins on the AW, the latest over C\u0026D in April under Charlie Tucker, but he was disappointing on the turf track here (7f) since, given that he's handled that test in the past; shade to prove this time.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (6) (50/1 -100%)Secret Road |
50/1(-100%) | (6) Secret Road 50/1, Again below form tenth beaten 17l off 61 last time, same mark here; effective 6-8f, acts on soft, good and AW; remains 4lb above last win mark. Won at 6f and over C\u0026D for James Owen at the start of the year, then over 1m here on yard debut in March, but his last three runs have been nothing like as good; has plenty to prove back at 7f.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (8) (25/1 -285%)Fort Augustus |
25/1(-285%) | (8) Fort Augustus 25/1, Bit keen but hit the line well, ran to best landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 4lb lower mark at Southwell last time; wide draw; suited by 6/7f, probably acts on any; chance of a follow up. Won two of last three at Southwell (7f) since these aids were fitted, a steady late surge taking him to the front close home 14 days ago; acts on Polytrack, too, but plenty needs to go right today from a wide draw.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (10) (80/1 -142%)Oberon Hill |
80/1(-142%) | (10) Oberon Hill 80/1, Never in it from off the pace beaten 9l in a handicap at Kempton last time; off a short-break; effective 7/8f on AW; needs more than of late. Signs of ability over 7f on Newcastle Tapeta but failed to stay 1m on handicap debut at Wetherby in April 2025; wasn't seen again until well beaten on Kempton AW (6f) in March for new yard, where he bled from the nose; best watched for now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (3) (33/1 +0%)Harbour Vision |
33/1(+0%) | (3) Harbour Vision 33/1, Again below form beaten 7l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; off a short-break; suited by 7/8f, acts on sound surface; quirky ride, hard to fancy on recent evidence. Tremendous win record on AW, successful 16 times; however, the last 11 have been at Wolverhampton and he's gone off the boil since winning two in a row there (7f) at the start of the year; has it to prove in first Polytrack run for over a year.. |

FORT AUGUSTUS has won two of his last three starts and a 4lb rise for the latest of those victories at Southwell may not be enough to stop him here. That said, Split Elevens is another recent winner with strong claims and could give the selection plenty to think about, while similar comments apply to last month's Kempton winner Yehudi.

1st (1) (11/2 -22%)Crocus Time |
11/2(-22%) | (1) Crocus Time 11/2, Back to best landing a handicap by 3/4l off a 5lb lower mark at Redcar last time; effective 5-7f, probably acts on any; workable mark still. Left low-key reappearance run behind when scoring at Redcar (5f, good to firm) nine days ago and is now 2-7 for Ron Barr; carries 5lb penalty here but is due to go up by that amount anyway and the slightly longer trip should be in her favour; likely contender.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (8/1 0%)He's An Angel |
8/1(0%) | (3) He's An Angel 8/1, Travelled, good attitude when winning a classified race at Wolverhampton by a neck last time; effective 5/6f, acts on sound surface; competitively weighted still under penalty. Often blows the start and/or races too freely but is a six-time AW winner, most recently in 5f Wolverhampton classified on Monday; faces tougher task under 5lb penalty in this handicap and his turf strike-rate is 0-13.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (10) (9/2 +44%)South Shore Island |
9/2(+44%) | (10) South Shore Island 9/2, Ran to form back up in trip beaten 4l off a 2lb higher mark at Lingfield last time; suited by 5-7f, acts on a sound surface; moderate maiden. 24-race maiden, absent since three midfield finishes on Lingfield Polytrack (5f-6f) for Amanda Perrett in December; changed hands for 10,000gns in January; makes stable debut from workable mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (7/1 -56%)Sir Benedict |
7/1(-56%) | (9) Sir Benedict 7/1, Ran to form beaten a length off a 1lb lower mark at Musselburgh last time; best at 5f, acts on soft, good and AW; veteran who needs pace collapse. No longer the force of old but has performed well on all four starts since joining Ben Haslam in March, most recently when keeping-on third at Musselburgh (5f, good) a fortnight ago; big player if this race is run to suit usual come-from-behind tactics.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (11/2 -57%)Dragon God |
11/2(-57%) | (2) Dragon God 11/2, Lacked pace, bit below best beaten 6l in a handicap at Chepstow last time; effective 5-7f, acts on good to soft, good and AW; on a competitive mark if bouncing back. Still a maiden after ten runs but has been placed twice on good to firm ground this spring (6f/5f) and may not have been suited by good to soft when slightly disappointing last time; this trip could be ideal; no surprise if he features.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (11/1 +45%)Amerjeet |
11/1(+45%) | (5) Amerjeet 11/1, Lacked pace beaten 7l in a handicap at Beverley last time; effective at 5/6f, best on sound surface; mark easing but needs more. Well handicapped on some of his winter AW form but was safely held when back on turf at Beverley (5f, good to firm) last week and remains without a win since summer 2024; others preferred.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (12/1 -100%)Mrs Trump |
12/1(-100%) | (4) Mrs Trump 12/1, Below form beaten 6 1/4l in a handicap at Pontefract last time; effective 5/6f, acts on soft and good to firm; mark easing but needs more. Yet to strike form after two 5f runs this season; now 2lb lower than for the second of last summer's two 6f wins, though, and it probably won't be much longer before she gets back in the groove.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (4/1 +38%)Eldeyaar |
4/1(+38%) | (8) Eldeyaar 4/1, Ran to form third beaten 4 1/2l off 52 last time, 1lb lower here; effective 6f, acts on good, soft and AW; chance if building on latest. Seemingly perked up by change of headgear when winning from the front at Thirsk (6f, good; first-time visor) in April and again ran well when third of 17 over that C\u0026D last month; high on the list.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (7) (100/1 -203%)Highfield Jewel |
100/1(-203%) | (7) Highfield Jewel 100/1, Well below from up to 7f down the field in a handicap at Southwell most recent; effective 6f on AW; bounce back needed dropped in trip. Still unexposed after only four runs but soundly beaten when 40-1 for recent handicap debut at Southwell (7f, AW); dropped below 6f for first time here; others have much more obvious claims.. |

CROCUS TIME can usually be relied on to run her race at this level. Ron Barr's sprinter scored at Redcar on only her second start over the minimum trip and there may well be more to come from her. Sir Benedict has revived of late and is no forlorn hope off his current mark, while Highland Bear is another to consider reverting to a shorter trip for her handicap debut.

1st (5) (5/1 -25%)Uncle Liam |
5/1(-25%) | (5) Uncle Liam 5/1, Outpaced, needed stiffer test well beaten in a handicap here latest; top course trainer; effective 8f, acts on heavy, soft and good to soft; inconsistent in short career, longer trip could suit. 11-race maiden who arrives with plenty to prove regarding current form and stamina (untested at trip); however, his pedigree provides optimism regarding him staying and he could stage a revival when back on slow ground.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (10) (12/1 +25%)Falaise Blanc |
12/1(+25%) | (10) Falaise Blanc 12/1, Continued in poor form beaten 7l in a handicap at Catterick last time; effective 10-14f, acts on soft, good and AW; out of form. Won at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) last August and runner-up at Musselburgh (1m4f, good to soft) next time; however, he's been well below that level so far this season and a major turnaround is necessary.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (10/1 -11%)Dandy's Angel |
10/1(-11%) | (8) Dandy's Angel 10/1, Outpaced, unsuited by drop in trip down the field in a handicap at Beverley most recent; usually held up; suited by 10f, seems effective at 8f, acts on any; needs more. Beverley specialist who hasn't been at the top of her game over 8.4f there on her two starts this season; however, that trip is probably inadequate nowadays and she has a reduced mark to work with back up in trip; has won over C\u0026D and this 9yo is not written off.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (12/1 -41%)Hijo De La Luna |
12/1(-41%) | (6) Hijo De La Luna 12/1, Yard won this last year; made too much use of comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Market Rasen last time; off a short-break; effective 9-11f, acts on AW; recent Flat winner, inconsistent in short hurdles career. Won a classified race at Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW) in February in a first-time visor; however, down the field at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) in March and well beaten back over hurdles in April; needs to get back on track.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (13/8 -30%)Recobella |
13/8(-30%) | (3) Recobella 13/8, Ran to form beaten 1/2l off a 1lb lower mark at Doncaster last time; suited by 10f, acts on soft and good; in form, remains competitively weighted judged on old French form. Just one win from her 17 starts but she's run really well in defeat at Doncaster on both turf outings this season (1m2f/1m4f, good to soft/good) and there's every chance she'll be bang there once more.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (12/1 +25%)Sophiesticate |
12/1(+25%) | (2) Sophiesticate 12/1, Outpaced, unsuited by drop in trip, needed run well beaten in a handicap at Ayr latest; effective 10-12f, acts soft, good; bit to prove at present. Below par on final two starts last year and same story on recent reappearance over 1m at Ayr; however, she's back up to a more suitable trip today and is 6lb below her last winning mark; not written off.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (13/2 +24%)Sugarpiehoneybunch |
13/2(+24%) | (9) Sugarpiehoneybunch 13/2, Won this last year; ran to form beaten 8l in a handicap at Beverley last time; off a short-break; effective 12-16f, acts on heavy, good; more needed on recent evidence. Soundly beaten on final three starts last season and same story on reappearance in April; however, she might have needed that latest outing and she won this last year; shouldn't be discounted.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (9/1 +25%)Ravenswell |
9/1(+25%) | (4) Ravenswell 9/1, Didn't stay comfortably held in a handicap at Musselburgh last time; seems best 10/11f; must bounce back after a few below par runs. He will have something to prove if slow ground prevails and he was tailed off on his recent reappearance over 2m at Musselburgh; however, that was his first run beyond 1m3f and he went close over that trip at Carlisle last August, when 2lb higher; might not be a forlorn hope back down in trip.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (1) (6/1 +50%)Storm On Jura |
6/1(+50%) | (1) Storm On Jura 6/1, Needed run down the field in a handicap at Musselburgh most recent; top course jockey/trainer combination; seemed effective 8-9f on a sound surface in novices; all to prove in handicaps. 4yo who has raced only six times but has been well beaten in her three handicaps, the latest her reappearance at Musselburgh in April.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (11) (50/1 +24%)Wath Court |
50/1(+24%) | (11) Wath Court 50/1, Poor effort comfortably held in a handicap at Doncaster last time; seems to stay 12f and act on AW; form is largely very poor. Longstanding maiden who has been well beaten on all four starts this year and would be a surprise winner today.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (7) (200/1 -203%)Ivynator |
200/1(-203%) | (7) Ivynator 200/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Kelso latest where went too fast; returning from long layoff; effective 2-2 1/2m; inconsistent and on long losing run. Runner-up over hurdles last May but this 8yo has struggled to get competitive on his four starts since, one of those being on the Flat; races for the first time since last September and others make greater appeal.. |

Sugarpiehoneybunch won the corresponding race last year on her seasonal debut and has a recent outing under her belt this time. She has to be of interest, but RECOBELLA gets the nod. She has been bang there at the finish on her last couple of starts on the turf and the recent Doncaster runner-up is taken to go one better raised only 1lb. Uncle Liam makes more appeal than Hijo De La Luna of the rest.

6/1(-9%) | (3) Blonde Over Blue 6/1, 9 Mar; 400,000gns Lope De Vega filly; dam poor at 10f; cost a few quid and is very much one to consider on debut for leading yard.

10/1(+60%) | (9) Margot Mae 10/1, Minor late headway beaten 7 1/4l in a maiden at Navan on debut; sprint-bred; tall filly, should improve markedly although probably needs to. Starspangledbanner filly a 115,000gns yearling; half-sister to winners incl' New Endeavour (7f-1m1f inc 2yo/AW/Australian Group 3; RPR 117), and Johnny Boom (8.6f-1m4f inc AW; 80); dam unraced half-sister to 7f 2yo Group 3 winner Luminous Eyes; plenty keen and green on Navan debut in late April; given a break since and more expected of.. |

10th (5) (250/1 -100%)Chiquitita Bee |
250/1(-100%) | (5) Chiquitita Bee 250/1, Poor debut well beaten in an auction race at Cork only start; major improvement needed. State Of Rest filly; 12,000euros yearling; second foal; dam runner-up 6f 2yo (RPR 82), half-sister to Italian 1m7f jumps winner Teddy's Profit, out of French 1m2f winning half-sister to 5f/5.5f 2yo Group 2 winner Signora Cabello; plenty keen, dropped out to finish last of 9 on recent Cork debut; this a stronger maiden, easily passed over.. |

IBELIEVEICANFLY has a smart pedigree and appears to be her leading yard's first-string. By Frankel and a half-sister to a pair of smart colts in Yosemite Valley and Piz Badile, the selection is one of five runners to hold a notable entry in the Group 2 Airlie Stud Stakes later in the month. Stablemate Alpha is Alpha Centauri's third runner and the daughter of Sea The Stars could well be smart. Alpine Wedding is a full-sister to a Group 3 winner, while Carafinn and Blonde Over Blue are others to note.

11/4(+54%) | (5) Style King 11/4, Again below form well beaten in a handicap at Yarmouth latest; blinkers first time; suited by 6f, acts on AW, likes fast ground; form in and out. Maiden; two poor efforts of late, with and without a hood, but he ran well for a long way behind a subsequent winner at Wolverhampton (6f) in April and is worth another go at 5f; first-time blinkers today.. |

3/1(+14%) | (1) Diamond Dreamer 3/1, Never in it after a slow start beaten 8l in a handicap at Windsor last time; effective at 5/6f, acts on good to soft, good to firm and AW; competitively weighted still if bouncing back. C\u0026D winner who came close to ending a losing AW run when a fast-closing runner-up here (5f) in March (5f); returns to this C\u0026D for the first time since and ought to go well if the race falls his way.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (7/2 -27%)Peregrine Falcon |
7/2(-27%) | (6) Peregrine Falcon 7/2, Below form beaten 8l in a handicap at Southwell last time; in good form prior; effective 5f, acts on AW; bounce back needed. Maiden after 14 runs, five under Billy Loughnane, but has been involved in tight finishes over 5f on Tapeta on three occasions so ought to find a race at some stage and perhaps this first go on Polytrack will suit.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (5/1 +0%)Shalaa Asker |
5/1(+0%) | (4) Shalaa Asker 5/1, Never competitive, below form beaten 8l in a handicap at Southwell last time; effective 5-7f, acts on any; bounce back needed off easing mark. Busy since the autumn; some narrow defeats to go with three 5f wins, on Polytrack elsewhere and Tapeta; ran flat at Southwell recently but he's realistically weighted if that wasn't a sign that he's going off the boil.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (9/1 -64%)Honour Your Dreams |
9/1(-64%) | (7) Honour Your Dreams 9/1, Lacked pace when fourth beaten 4l in a handicap at Windsor latest; effective 5/6f, acts on sound surface; unreliable but capable and is a former C&D winner. Six turf wins, three in 2025; 0-22 on AW and although having a healthy pull at the weights with Desdemona on their C\u0026D run in February he's not looked in peak form on last two starts.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (12/1 -118%)Desdemona |
12/1(-118%) | (2) Desdemona 12/1, No chance having completely missed the break fifth beaten 8l off 65 last time, 1lb lower here; effective at 5/6f, acts on good to soft, good and AW; bounce back needed. Tough filly who took time to find her form again but won two in a row in early spring, over C\u0026D (overcame a wide draw) and at Chelmsford (5f), and subsequent defeats came over 6f then very slowly away here in April; form claims.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (12/1 +14%)Balon D'or |
12/1(+14%) | (3) Balon D'or 12/1, Never in it from off the pace beaten 5l in a handicap here last time; enjoys making it; effective 5/6f, acts on any, but likes give; out of form. Both handicap wins on turf at Chester (5f and 6f); no great shakes on this track for new yard since November but he's dropped 9lb in that time and there was the glimmer of a revival here last time when back from a break; not ruled out.. |

A tentative vote goes to HONOUR YOUR DREAMS, who has been running well enough in defeat of late to suggest that he can go well in a race of this nature off a career-low mark. Shalaa Asker struggled in a better race last time but should not be underestimated at this level, while Peregrine Falcon and Desdemona are others to note.

(1) (11/4 +31%)Northern Tempest |
11/4(+31%) | (1) Northern Tempest 11/4, Ran to form down in trip beaten 2 1/2l off a 1lb lower mark at Ripon last time; effective 5/6f, acts on soft, good and AW; respected once again. Peak effort came in a Newcastle novice event (5f, AW) last November; well beaten in his first two handicaps but showed more last time at Ripon (6f, good); same mark; handy draw and slightly shorter trip both look positive; could go well.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (4/1 -33%)Data Fata Secutus |
4/1(-33%) | (4) Data Fata Secutus 4/1, Ran to form beaten 1/2l off a 1lb lower mark at Redcar last time; visor first time; suited by 5f, acts on soft, good and AW; can again go well. Has twice gone close from this mark in her last three starts, at Musselburgh (5f, good) and most recently at Redcar (5f, good to firm); both those efforts suggest that this extra half furlong will be a positive; visor now tried; player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (9/2 +44%)Powernap |
9/2(+44%) | (8) Powernap 9/2, Back to form tried in a tongue-tie beaten 2 1/4l off a 1lb lower mark at Catterick last time; effective at 5/6f, acts on sound surface; chance if building on latest. Took a step back in the right direction at Catterick (5f, good to firm; first-time tongue-tie) latest; each-way player if she can back that up.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (13/2 0%)Ellie's De Vega |
13/2(0%) | (7) Ellie's De Vega 13/2, Ran to form beaten 3l off a 1lb lower mark at Ripon last time; effective 6/7f, acts on good, fast ground and AW; consistent sort. Placed twice over 6f on a sound surface; below best at Ripon (6f, good) on latest start; each-way player but will need improvement to score.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (7/1 +42%)Dabbling |
7/1(+42%) | (2) Dabbling 7/1, Didn't get home back up in trip beaten 6l in a handicap at Southwell last time; effective at 5f on a sound surface; slight drop in trip a help. Inconsistent and hasn't yet hinted that she is up to winning from this mark; more needed.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (8/1 +20%)Sea Her Excel |
8/1(+20%) | (5) Sea Her Excel 8/1, Ran to form down in trip 4l third in a handicap at Catterick most recent run; effective 5/6f, acts on sound surface; more to offer yet. Peak effort when last of three in a Newcastle fillies' novice (6f, AW) last September; took a step back in the right direction at Catterick (5f, good to firm) latest; more needed.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (10/1 -33%)Surgeon Commander |
10/1(-33%) | (3) Surgeon Commander 10/1, Ran about to form made plenty of use of beaten 3 1/4l off a 1lb lower mark at Newcastle last time; returning from a break; effective at 6/7f, acts on AW; competitive mark. Two-time 7f AW winner who was placed from this mark in that sphere last time; his juvenile turf form was moderate but he's not ruled out back up in trip and back on this surface for the first time in 11 months.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (18/1 -13%)Ryefield |
18/1(-13%) | (6) Ryefield 18/1, Below form down in trip, lacked pace beaten 7 1/4l in a handicap at Newcastle last time; cheekpieces first time; effective 6f, acts on good to soft and AW; needs more. Much his best effort when second in a Pontefract maiden (6f, good to soft) last September; well below that level in four subsequent starts and is plummeting in the handicap; cheekpieces need to have a positive effect.. |

DATA FATA SECUTUS finished strongly for third over the minimum trip at Redcar 10 days ago. With a visor added, this extra half-furlong and drop in class could prompt the Rebecca Menzies-trained filly to get her head in front. Northern Tempest only faded in the closing stages when placed over 6f at Ripon last week and is likely to prove competitive once again, while Sea Her Excel shades Powernap as the best alternative.

(9) (5/2 +38%)Great Mover |
5/2(+38%) | (9) Great Mover 5/2, Below form beaten 5l in a handicap here last time; effective 7-10f, suited by cut, acts on good; needs more. Only win from 20 starts came on heavy ground at Gowran last September; has failed to retrieve her best form in four outings this term, though she was aimed high in the Irish Lincoln and was not beaten far in sixth over 1m at Limerick on her penultimate start; down in trip again after a 1m2f run here last time, eased when beaten.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (3/1 +67%)Playin Cool |
3/1(+67%) | (3) Playin Cool 3/1, Below form up in trip down the field in a handicap at the Curragh most recent; effective 7-9f with cut; bounce back needed. Ended last season with a 1m1f course maiden win on heavy ground; yet to make an impact in handicaps; trip might be inadequate.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (10/3 +26%)Dark Viper |
10/3(+26%) | (4) Dark Viper 10/3, Again below 2025 best beaten 7l in a handicap at Naas last time; effective 6-8f, acts on heavy and good; back down to last win mark. Has recorded his only two wins over 1m at this venue; ground was heavy when he scored off this mark last October, his 2024 win was on good going; his record of finishing second ten times strikes a note of caution; below best in three 2026 appearances.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (9/2 +72%)Thru And Thru |
9/2(+72%) | (8) Thru And Thru 9/2, Below form down the field in a handicap here most recent; in good form prior; off a short-break; effective 7f, acts on heavy and soft; bounce back needed. Lightly-raced filly; second twice in maidens and made a bright start in handicaps when third of 12 over 7f at Naas in March; something seemingly amiss when favourite here in April, though vet's report revealed nothing; may bounce back now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (7/1 +13%)Mallavelly |
7/1(+13%) | (2) Mallavelly 7/1, Made plenty of use of and probably needed the run down the field in Mutamakina Stakes (Group 3) here most recent; effective 7/8f, acts on any; more chance back in a handicap. Progressive in handicaps last year; went up an aggregate 11lb for wins here and Tipperary and ended season with a fine third in a premier handicap at this venue (Bella Isabella, seventh); sights lowered again after a 1m Group 3 bid here on return; definite chance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (9/1 -38%)Bella Isabella |
9/1(-38%) | (1) Bella Isabella 9/1, Bit below best on return beaten 8 1/4l in a handicap at Naas last time; effective 7/8f, acts on sound surface; bounce back needed although should come on for return. Cork maiden winner (7f, good) last season went on to take third of eight in a Group 3 next time (7f, good); finished around 2l behind today's rival Mallavelly (third) when seventh of 20 in a 1m premier handicap here on her final start last term; well beaten on seasonal debut at Naas. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (10/1 -122%)Mehman |
10/1(-122%) | (6) Mehman 10/1, Ran to form down in trip beaten a neck off a 1lb lower mark at Naas last time; effective 6f-1m, acts on soft, good and AW; in form, should again go well. Four-time AW winner, sole turf success came in 5f handicap at Naas in May 2024; solid effort when over 1m at Bellewstown in April and backed that up with a close third over 6f at Naas last month; 1-22 record on turf is a concern but those recent efforts have been encouraging. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (12/1 +40%)Loingseoir |
12/1(+40%) | (11) Loingseoir 12/1, Ran to form back up in trip beaten 7l in a handicap at Limerick last time; effective 7-9f, acts on heavy and good; chance in this. Durable veteran, 7-74, placed 13 times; recorded his most recent win last autumn; best form at the Curragh and Fairyhouse; makes a rare visit to Leopardstown, placed on both starts here; two mid-division runs this season; retains ability. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (25/1 -150%)Flaming Rib |
25/1(-150%) | (5) Flaming Rib 25/1, Below form up in class beaten 8l in a handicap at Dundalk last time; suited by 6/7f, acts on any; well treated on old UK form, unreliable. Seven wins in Britain; runner-up for Hugo Palmer in 2022 Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot; regressive since 2023; improved from a moderate stable debut last September when close fourth in a 7f rated at Dundalk in November; last of ten at the same venue in December; rated 113 at his peak, now down to 79 but remains risky.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (40/1 -122%)Eddie G |
40/1(-122%) | (7) Eddie G 40/1, Slowly away, lot to do, below form when comfortably held in a handicap at Cork last time; returning from long layoff; effective 7/8f; might need this. Two AW wins, 0-11 on turf; ran only twice last season; denied a clear run when third of 14 on his seasonal reappearance in first-time tongue time at Roscommon; failed to build on that Cork eight days later and absent since.. |

MALLAVELLY was well held at Group 3 level in May, but can progress from that seasonal reappearance reverting to handicaps. A three-time winner, the selection is an able handicapper who finished third in a valuable race here last September, and is only 1lb higher than her last winning mark. Bella Isabella finished seventh behind the selection in September. She can improve from her own reappearance run last month, while Mehman is also noted.

(13) (4/9 +22%)Sunshine Star |
4/9(+22%) | (13) Sunshine Star 4/9, Performed well below expectations, maybe needed run when beaten 9 1/2l in a novice at Sandown last time; effective at 8f on AW; had looked the sort to improve massively over 10f-plus, so could bounce back here. Half-sister to connections' Oaks winner Soul Sister; close second to useful rival at Kempton (1m, AW) on sole 2yo start; managed only sixth when odds-on favourite for good Sandown novice (1m2f, good) in April but this race looks much easier and the return to Polytrack will suit; good chance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (4/1 +38%)Lightning Glory |
4/1(+38%) | (10) Lightning Glory 4/1, Confirmed debut level 6l third in a maiden at Southwell most recent run; effective 1m on AW; improvement likely up in trip now. Fair form when making the frame on both starts this spring, more recently when third of 11 at Southwell (1m); holds each-way claims at least if suited by the longer trip here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (9/1 -50%)Kashooda |
9/1(-50%) | (8) Kashooda 9/1, Study Of Man filly; half-sister to Kawida, very smart at 12f; dam useful at 7f as a 2yo; top trainer and this one needs respecting on debut, place claims at least. Fifth foal; sister to French 7f 2yo/9.7f winner Khadidja, half-sister to three winners including Kawida (7f/1m 2yo including Listed; RPR 106) and Khinjani (1m2f; 94); dam 9.4f winner (68), half-sister to Australian 1m1f/1m2f Group 1 winner Zaaki; in good hands; market may guide on debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (18/1 -260%)Musical Accord |
18/1(-260%) | (11) Musical Accord 18/1, Yard won this last year; similar level to debut beaten 8l in a novice at Wolverhampton last time; top course jockey; effective 10f; big, workmanlike sort, may need more time. Midfield in fairly good Newbury maiden (1m2f, good) on debut in April but unable to land any sort of blow at Wolverhampton (9.4f) last month; needs to up her game here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (18/1 +64%)Arrivera |
18/1(+64%) | (3) Arrivera 18/1, Minor late headway, shaped as though wanting further when well beaten in a novice at Southwell only start; trainer in form; probably wants 10f+; should improve as goes up the distance. First foal from a useful 7f AW winner; showed only a glimmer of promise before weakening into sixth of seven on debut at Southwell (1m) on New Year's Day.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (25/1 -14%)Corallience |
25/1(-14%) | (6) Corallience 25/1, Step back from okay debut down the field in a novice at Sandown most recent; effective at 8f on soft; type to do better when handicapping. Not disgraced on 2yo debut at Newbury (1m, soft) but suffered heavy defeat when reappearing at Sandown (1m2f, good; behind Sunshine Star) six weeks ago.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (25/1 +38%)Antiquarian |
25/1(+38%) | (2) Antiquarian 25/1, Improved but flattered at huge odds beaten 7 1/4l in a maiden at Ascot last time; all to prove for now. Struggled on 2yo debut (6f) and was almost certainly flattered by proximity to principals when sixth of seven in slowly run contest at Ascot (1m2f, good) last month.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (28/1 -40%)Kenkelly |
28/1(-40%) | (9) Kenkelly 28/1, Again ran to a moderate level well beaten in a novice at Goodwood latest; trainer in form but this one looks more of a handicap type. Probably didn't achieve a great deal when well-held third of five in race won easily by short-odds favourite at Yarmouth (11.5f, good to firm) in April and was soundly beaten when dropped to 1m2f at Goodwood last month.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (28/1 +44%)Coral Cathedral |
28/1(+44%) | (5) Coral Cathedral 28/1, Ran green, missing the break and getting outpaced mid-race when beaten 8l in a maiden at Wolverhampton on debut; middle-distance bred; should improve a good bit for debut. Out of a German Group 3 winner; too green to do herself justice when 33-1 for debut at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in December; needs to have made good progress in the meantime.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (40/1 -82%)Northern Bea |
40/1(-82%) | (12) Northern Bea 40/1, 62,000gns Oasis Dream filly; half-sister to Kingfisher King, smart at 10f; likely up against it on debut. 62,000gns yearling; eighth foal; closely related to 1m4f winner Royal Associate (RPR 99), half-sister to three winners including Kingfisher King (1m2f; 106) and Officer Of State (1m7f; 103); dam unplaced 1m-1m2f in France; makes debut in a race lacking strength in depth.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (80/1 -60%)Shopaholic |
80/1(-60%) | (1) Shopaholic 80/1, Bit below debut level well beaten in a novice at Nottingham latest; improvement needed. Made fairly encouraging debut when fifth of eight over C\u0026D in April and may not have been suited by good to soft turf when below that form last month but others in this line-up look stronger.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (100/1 +0%)Blue Tulip |
100/1(+0%) | (4) Blue Tulip 100/1, Never in it from off the pace, poor debut well beaten in a maiden at Southwell only start; major improvement needed. Has a good pedigree but was always behind when 100-1 for recent debut at Southwell (1m).. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (200/1 +0%)Hunting Berries |
200/1(+0%) | (7) Hunting Berries 200/1, Yet to show any real signs of ability; looks to need more time. Well beaten at triple-digit odds on first two starts (6f/1m); upped in trip again here.. |

SUNSHINE STAR failed to meet market expectations when sixth on her return at Sandown in April, but that race was much stronger than this and it is far too soon to be writing her off. Lightning Glory is the pick of the remainder with experience but Kashooda, who is a half-sister to a Listed winner, may prove to be the main threat to the selection on her debut.

(1) (3/1 0%)Arishka's Dream |
3/1(0%) | (1) Arishka's Dream 3/1, Taken on up front and did too much too soon on turf debut well beaten in a handicap at Ripon latest; in good form prior; effective 5/6f, acts on AW; consistent until latest, chance if handling the grass. Bang in form on the AW before going off too fast when made favourite for his turf debut in a 6f handicap at Ripon; remains of interest and looks sharp enough for 5f; gelded since.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (7/2 +22%)Guernsey Lady |
7/2(+22%) | (6) Guernsey Lady 7/2, Ran to form beaten 2l off a 1lb higher mark at Bath last time; effective 5/6f, minimum trip probably ideal, acts on a sound surface; mark remains quite competitive. Good-ground novice winner last year; not her first placing in handicap company when a close third at Bath two weeks ago after 142 days off; possibilities.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (9/2 +50%)Arctic Wind |
9/2(+50%) | (2) Arctic Wind 9/2, Ran to form up in trip back from break 7l third in a handicap at Wolverhampton most recent run; effective at 5f on a sound surface; should come on for latest. Promising runs for David Menuisier whom he left for 9,000gns; gelded ahead of stable debut at Wolverhampton where he was beaten 7l in a small field; may have needed that after a lengthy break and there are races in him.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (11/2 -120%)La Belle Forest |
11/2(-120%) | (3) La Belle Forest 11/2, Disappointing handicap debut, helped set it up for closer beaten 7l in a handicap at Southwell last time; in good form prior; off a short-break; bred for 5f, should get 6f, acts on good and AW; form of maiden win had knocks, still early days but must bounce back. Ran in these colours for Karl Burke and was progressing when winning her AW maiden; her handicap debut back at Southwell was underwhelming given she went off favourite; probably better than that.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (8/1 +33%)Carefree Dream |
8/1(+33%) | (4) Carefree Dream 8/1, Needed run down the field in a handicap at Bath most recent; possibly best 5f, effective soft and good to firm; in good form last autumn, needs to leave reappearance form behind. Won small-field 5f handicap on soft ground last September; uncompetitive in two runs since on either side of a break.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (9/1 -125%)Tie Fighter |
9/1(-125%) | (5) Tie Fighter 9/1, Ran to form when fourth beaten 4 1/2l in a maiden at Kempton latest; cheekpieces first time; effective at 5/6f, acts on good to soft and AW; consistent and form franked. Seven-race maiden who is making belated handicap debut; chance of opening his account largely depends on the effects of first-time headgear.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (16/1 +43%)Alkuwarrior |
16/1(+43%) | (7) Alkuwarrior 16/1, Did plenty early down the field in a handicap at Windsor most recent; cheekpieces first time; trainer in form; effective 5f, acts on good to firm, good, might want to race off the pace; struggling in handicaps this term, needs to prove he's trained on. Record of 1-11 overall; has finished last in two sprint handicaps for current yard; cheekpieces added.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (22/1 -38%)Beach Partee |
22/1(-38%) | (8) Beach Partee 22/1, Returned to form beaten 2 1/4l off a 2lb higher mark at Bath last time; effective 5/6f, acts on soft, good to soft and AW; competitive mark if bouncing back but unreliable. Three wins for William Knight last autumn; might be on the way back after a fairly close fifth at Bath when just behind Guernsey Lady.. |

Although Arishka's Dream was disappointing on turf bow at Ripon in April, he cannot be dismissed on the back of a gelding operation. The Kublers' gelding had previously looked progressive on the all-weather and is worthy of consideration, but GUERNSEY LADY edges the vote. The Coulsty filly returned with a solid third at Bath recently and a 1lb ease in the ratings may prove lenient. Tie Fighter is the pick of the remainder.

(2) (1/4 +17%)Endorsement |
1/4(+17%) | (2) Endorsement 1/4, Yard has won 2 of last 5 runnings of race; ran to form 1/2l third in Derby Trial (Group 3) here most recent run; top course trainer; stays 10f, acts on any; very smart and consistent, 12f should suit. Second to the current Derby favourite Benvenuto Cellini on debut at Killarney; best display at two when second to Pierre Bonnard in the Zetland Stakes; this year's course form involves links to Derby candidates; stuck to his task to take second when Pierre Bonnard flopped in the Ballysax; pick of these on his close third behind James J Braddock and Pierre Bonnard in the Derby Trial.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (4/1 +11%)Amadeus Mozart |
4/1(+11%) | (1) Amadeus Mozart 4/1, Yard has won 2 of last 5 runnings of race; disappointing up in class well beaten in Gallinule Stakes (Group 3) at the Curragh latest; in good form prior; top course trainer; needs at least 10f, acts on good; bounce back needed but still early days. Made a winning debut in a 7f maiden at the Curragh last June; no match for Godolphin's Maho Bay in a novice event at Newmarket in April (winner a beaten favourite in the Lingfield Derby Trial on next start); looked in need of further when failing to make an impact in the 1m2f Gallinule Stakes won by stablemate Causeway.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (8/1 +20%)Yousaynothingatall |
8/1(+20%) | (5) Yousaynothingatall 8/1, Run of race, ran to form in getting off the mark when winning an auction race at Cork by 5l last time; effective 10-12f, acts on heavy, good and AW; probably more to come but this is tougher. Handicap mark unchanged on 80 after a maiden win at Cork a month on her fifth start; safely held by Emmeleia on running at Dundalk in April.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (33/1 +34%)So Must I |
33/1(+34%) | (4) So Must I 33/1, Ran to form tried in cheekpieces when fourth beaten 4l in a handicap at Sligo latest; suited by 10/11f, acts on soft and AW; likeable type but up against it in this. Winner of a middle-distance Dundalk conditions race in February; subsequent form in turf handicaps does not inspire confidence at this level.. |

ENDORSEMENT has set the pace in more competitive races on each of his last three starts and drops in grade. Third behind Derby contender James J Braddock here last time, that front-running performances was a smart effort, as he maintained a strong gallop when narrowly beaten over 1m2f. Stablemate Amadeus Mozart could feature but needs to improve to come out best. Yousaynothingatall edges out So Must I to be best of the rest, but still has plenty to find.

(3) (2/1 +27%)Kaori |
2/1(+27%) | (3) Kaori 2/1, Ran to form 2 1/4l third in a maiden at Leicester most recent run; returning from long layoff; effective 7f on sound surface; longer trip should suit now handicapping for top connections. Made the frame on all three 2yo starts, most notably when third of 12 in Leicester maiden (7f, good to soft) in September; makes handicap/AW debut after 255-day absence but has plenty of scope for improvement in middle-distance handicaps this year.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (5/2 +25%)Raspoutine |
5/2(+25%) | (2) Raspoutine 5/2, Ran to form up in trip and switching to turf when fourth beaten 3l off 72 last time, same mark here; blinkers first time; effective 1m-10f, acts on good and AW; new headgear could spark improvement. Won in good style here (1m) on seasonal/handicap debut in April and made the frame on both starts since, more recently when upped to 1m2f at Salisbury 12 days ago; returns to this track with first-time blinkers fitted; may still have more improvement to come.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (4/1 +33%)Booziebrunch |
4/1(+33%) | (5) Booziebrunch 4/1, Did well considering a slow start, ran to form beaten 2 1/4l off a 1lb higher mark at Kempton last time; effective 7/8f on a sound surface; on a competitive mark. Three good runs over 1m this year, the latest in refitted blinkers at Kempton four weeks ago, but probably needs this longer trip to unlock some improvement.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (11/2 +21%)Extraterrestrial |
11/2(+21%) | (6) Extraterrestrial 11/2, Below form beaten 10l in a handicap at Newbury last time; significant jockey booking; effective 8-11f, acts on AW and probably on good; bounce back needed. Well down the field after racing too freely on turf last month but was in good form beforehand, most notably when close second at Southwell (1m3f; first-time cheekpieces) two runs ago; in the mix if back on song.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (13/2 -8%)Central Command |
13/2(-8%) | (4) Central Command 13/2, Stopped quickly, well below form on turf debut tenth beaten 15l off 71 last time, same mark here; top course jockey; effective 7-10f, acts on AW; return to AW a plus, but needs to bounce back. Needs to bounce back quickly from very disappointing turf debut at Haydock a fortnight ago but came from off the pace for emphatic win at Newcastle (1m2f) on seasonal/handicap debut in early May, and has obvious claims if judged on that performance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (10/1 -150%)Lexington Express |
10/1(-150%) | (1) Lexington Express 10/1, Run of race, scored with plenty in hand upped in trip landing a handicap by 3 1/4l off a 6lb lower mark at Wolverhampton last time; trainer in form; enjoys making it; effective 7-9f, acts on a sound surface, suited by front-running; good chance of another win. Front-runner with 3-6 strike-rate for new stable this year, the latest win gained in four-runner contest at Wolverhampton (9.4f) last month; enjoyed the run of the race that day and has gone up another 6lb but is evidently in excellent nick.. |

Raspoutine might take a step forward now sporting first-time blinkers and he's respected, while Kaori is interesting on her return to the fray and Extraterrestrial could bounce back from a lacklustre Newbury effort. LEXINGTON EXPRESS is the in-form horse in the race, though, and is difficult to get away from having made it three wins from her last four starts courtesy of a smooth Wolverhampton performance last month.

(1) (11/10 -92%)Persian Land |
11/10(-92%) | (1) Persian Land 11/10, Outpaced and finished strongly on very promising debut 2 1/4l winner in a novice at Haydock on debut; effective 6f, acts on soft; more to come, likely get 7f. Outpaced for a long way at Haydock (6f, soft; 14-1) but the leaders stopped and he won going away; could have been flattered but clearly has a fair level of ability and Jack Dace's claim takes care of much of the penalty.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (15/8 +71%)Galipi |
15/8(+71%) | (4) Galipi 15/8, 2 Mar; 72,000gns Galiway colt; half-brother to Zillow, smart at 12f; dam poor at 12f; yard in good form and has recent 2yo winners; market can guide. 72,000gns yearling; fifth foal; half-brother to four winners including Zillow (11.5f/1m4f Flat, RPR 92; useful 2m hurdle), Genetique (French 6.5f) and Energic (French 9.5f-1m4f); dam French 1m1f winner; bred to win races and the market can guide.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (5/2 +25%)Real Trouble |
5/2(+25%) | (6) Real Trouble 5/2, Outpaced, looked in need of stiffer test beaten 4l in a maiden at Newcastle on debut; acts on AW; should improve for debut experience stepped up in trip. Cost 105,000gns and already gelded; only weakened late on when beaten under 4l at Newcastle (6f) and improvement looks on the cards now raised to 7f; good chance according to RPRs.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (12/1 +70%)Alfey Moon |
12/1(+70%) | (2) Alfey Moon 12/1, Green and never threatened on modest debut beaten 7l in a maiden at Chepstow on debut; speed in pedigree; should improve a little for initial experience. 33-1 and was tenth of the 12 runners on good to soft at Chepstow (6f); limited appeal on that performance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (66/1 -100%)Le Ciel Noble |
66/1(-100%) | (5) Le Ciel Noble 66/1, Never in the race on modest debut well beaten in a novice at Haydock only start; plenty to prove. 40-1 and never seen with a chance at Haydock in the race won by stablemate Persian Land.. |

Having made a winning debut at Haydock a fortnight ago, PERSIAN LAND could be set to double his tally. Jack Dace's 5lb claim could prove a real asset and this longer trip should suit the son of Persian Force. There is also likely to be more to come from Real Trouble now he has the benefit of experience, while Galipi is a half-brother to four winners and warrants a betting check on his racecourse bow.

(5) (5/6 +49%)Fleur De Provence |
5/6(+49%) | (5) Fleur De Provence 5/6, Confirmed debut level when second beaten a short-head in an auction race at Gowran Park latest; effective 1m on soft and good to yielding; leading claims here with 10f set to suit. Easy to back 16-1, made a promising debut over 1m at Naas in late March when staying on to finish second behind the Aidan O'Brien-trained favourite Drop Dead Gorgeous, despite running green; failed to uphold form with fourth-placed Sanctijude at Gowran last month; longer trip may make the difference now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (3/1 +0%)Bang Bang |
3/1(+0%) | (2) Bang Bang 3/1, Improved again up to 1m when second beaten 6l in an auction race here latest; top course jockey; off a short-break; effective 7/8f on soft and good; more to come at 10f perhaps. Slow to break but shaped reasonably well over 7f here on debut last July when staying on strongly into fifth, having run green; not beaten far when fifth of nine over the same trip at the Galway festival; no match for the well-fancied Mixed Feelings in a 1m maiden here in April; not guaranteed to uphold form with fourth-placed Lake Bonney.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (9/2 +55%)Shanala |
9/2(+55%) | (11) Shanala 9/2, Some promise on debut beaten 6 1/2l in a maiden at Gowran Park on debut; effective 9f on good to yielding; probable improver now upped to 10f. Looked very raw when introduced at Gowran last month; likely to improve but perhaps not by enough to win here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (15/2 +17%)My Girl Grace |
15/2(+17%) | (9) My Girl Grace 15/2, 40,000 euros Ghaiyyath filly; half-sister to Croupier, smart at 7f; looks an unlikely winner on debut although yard can get one ready. Fifth foal; half-sister by Ghaiyyath to multiple winners Croupier (four races, RPR 108) and Touchwood (five races, RPR 83); dam unraced sister to 7f 2yo Group 2 winner Saamidd.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (8/1 -78%)Mawhibah |
8/1(-78%) | (8) Mawhibah 8/1, Australia filly; half-sister to Librisa Breeze, top-class at 6f; top trainer and this one is worthy of respect on debut. Tenth foal; Australia filly is closely related to a minor handicap winner, much more interesting as a half-sister to Group 1 sprint winner Librisa Breeze; dam 1m2f winner.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (22/1 -22%)Freedom And Light |
22/1(-22%) | (6) Freedom And Light 22/1, Too keen, below form comfortably held in a 3yo race at Naas last time; effective 10f on yielding; bounce back needed. Ordinary form in maidens; ran poorly in a conditions race at Naas last time. eased after chance had gone; officially rated 9lb inferior to Fleur De Provence.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (25/1 +38%)Donna Time |
25/1(+38%) | (4) Donna Time 25/1, Late headway from well back on quite promising debut beaten 7 1/4l in a maiden at Dundalk on debut; returning from a break; middle-distance bred; should improve. Left an impression she would improve from the run when introduced at Dundalk in January; beaten around 7l in seventh in what looked like an ordinary contest. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (28/1 +15%)Churchfield Lady |
28/1(+15%) | (3) Churchfield Lady 28/1, Modest debut well beaten in an auction race at Cork only start; needs improvement. Pedigree implies she might have a stamina issue over this trip; that view is endorsed by her debut run at Cork when she ran out of steam over a furlong down.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(14) (33/1 +0%)Ventriloquist |
33/1(+0%) | (14) Ventriloquist 33/1, 8,500 euros Verbal Dexterity filly; half-sister to Serious Challenge, very smart at 13f; likely to need this debut experience. E8,500 yearling; fourth foal; half-sister to winners, notably Serious Challenge (Listed-placed and also a useful hurdler), and Group 3 sprint winner Dawn Charger.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (66/1 +0%)Stellar Moment |
66/1(+0%) | (12) Stellar Moment 66/1, Modest enough debut well beaten in an auction race at the Curragh only start; off a short-break; improvement needed. Failed to cope with testing ground first time out at the Curragh in March; best watched.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (80/1 -21%)Path To Peace |
80/1(-21%) | (10) Path To Peace 80/1, Modest enough debut, never involved well beaten in a maiden here only start; visor first time; major improvement needed. Slowly away, never in contention when a 66-1 chance on debut here last month; visored now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(13) (125/1 +0%)Tintinabulla |
125/1(+0%) | (13) Tintinabulla 125/1, Never in it from off the pace in a hood well beaten in an auction race at Navan only start; major improvement needed. 100-1, never involved first time out at the Curragh; highly unlikely to feature.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (150/1 +25%)An Cailleach |
150/1(+25%) | (1) An Cailleach 150/1, Poor debut well beaten in a maiden at Gowran Park only start; off a short-break; all to prove for now. Completely tailed off first time out at Gowran eight weeks ago; can be ignored.. |

FLEUR DE PROVENCE has performed well twice to date and should be suited by stepping up in distance. Defeated by a smart type on debut and narrowly beaten at Gowran last month, the selection may have more to offer. Sprint-bred Bang Bang was significantly hampered when second here in April and while she now steps up in trip, the three-year-old looks capable of going well and holds Lake Bonney. Mawhibah is a half-sister to high-class sprinter Librisa Breeze but also has stamina in her pedigree.

(3) (13/8 +54%)Polka Blue |
13/8(+54%) | (3) Polka Blue 13/8, Improved a touch to get off the mark landing a handicap by 1 1/4l off a 6lb lower mark at Leicester last time; top course jockey; effective 6/7f, acts on soft and AW, sound surfaces should suit action; consistent but new mark asks more. Following a series of near misses, she got her head in front when it mattered, down in trip and back on turf at Leicester (6f, good to firm) nine days ago; equally effective at 7f; strong claims under 6lb penalty in follow-up bid.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (11/4 +73%)Bella Bisbee |
11/4(+73%) | (2) Bella Bisbee 11/4, Bit keen, ran to form fourth beaten 3l off 69 last time, same mark here; wide draw; effective 7/8f, acts on good to soft, good to firm and AW; needs more and to settle. Landed her fourth AW win when scoring over C\u0026D in April; has been beaten three times since at this track, twice on AW, and although she cannot be discounted she is more exposed than the rest of the field.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (9/2 +55%)Pretty Danielle |
9/2(+55%) | (7) Pretty Danielle 9/2, Below form back on turf down the field in a handicap at Leicester most recent; blinkers first time; effective 7f, acts on good and AW; bounce back needed. Eight-race maiden but wasn't beaten far when third over C\u0026D in March; may have had an off-day when beaten 18l at Leicester (7f, good to firm) the following month; sports first-time blinkers and impossible to write off.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (15/2 +32%)Doodling |
15/2(+32%) | (6) Doodling 15/2, Unlucky not to finish closer, squeezed out late beaten 7l in a handicap at Salisbury last time; cheekpieces first time; effective 6-8f, acts on sound surface; more to come. 0-4 but was only beaten a neck on her second start/AW debut at Kempton (1m) in April; two lesser runs since, including on handicap debut when eighth of 14 at Salisbury (7f, good) 12 days ago; first-time cheekpieces need to have the desired effect.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (9/1 -29%)Startled Lady |
9/1(-29%) | (9) Startled Lady 9/1, Keen but lacked pace down in trip 4l third in a maiden at Windsor most recent run; effective 6/7f, acts on a sound surface; largely consistent and step back up in trip a plus. Has made the frame six times but remains a maiden; needs to show a shade more in order to bag her first win.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (14/1 -100%)Diamondinthedark |
14/1(-100%) | (5) Diamondinthedark 14/1, Confirmed debut promise to get off the mark when winning a novice at Wolverhampton by 3/4l last time; effective at 6f, acts on AW; improvement likely. Off the mark on her second start, at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) in November; steps up in trip on handicap debut on first run since and may well show improvement; market will be best guide.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (14/1 -100%)Hamaleel |
14/1(-100%) | (8) Hamaleel 14/1, Ran to form beaten a length off this mark at Kempton last time; blinkers first time; suited by 7f/1m, possibly needs a sound surface, enjoys making running; honest type. Made all to get off the mark at Kempton (1m, AW) in January; has run with credit employing same tactics three times since without managing to sustain her effort; first-time blinkers replace cheekpieces and likely to be the one to catch.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (18/1 -64%)Ritaal |
18/1(-64%) | (4) Ritaal 18/1, Outpaced, finished as if wanting further up in trip 8l third in a handicap at Kempton most recent run; cheekpieces first time; returning from a break; wide draw; effective 6f-1m; new headgear could help this time. Runner-up, beaten around 5l, in two Wolverhampton fillies' maidens (7f/6f) in November when trained by Owen Burrows; sold for 28,000gns the following month but two lesser runs for new yard since; wears first-time cheekpieces and has something to prove now.. |

SAHANA won from off the pace here last September and shaped as though another win could be just around the corner when posting a close second at Kempton on her return. The top-weight makes most appeal and can get the better of the penalised Leicester scorer Polka Blue. Hamaleel goes in first-time blinkers and is another expected to go well in this.

(1) (7/4 +73%)Nakaaha |
7/4(+73%) | (1) Nakaaha 7/4, Bit below form beaten 4 1/4l in a handicap at Salisbury last time; effective 7/8f, probably wants a sound surface; official mark looks spot-on. Won over 1m at Newbury and here last summer; up and down this season and the recent rain was probably no help.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(13) (9/2 -50%)Devious Devan |
9/2(-50%) | (13) Devious Devan 9/2, Returned to form back on AW landing a handicap by a length off a 3lb lower mark at Wolverhampton last time; suited by 1m, form is on good ground and AW; wind op may have sorted breathing issue, remains well treated on best form. Hurled in on what he achieved as a 3yo and belatedly returned to form when a length winner at Wolverhampton (8.6f; backed into 9-2); raised just 3lb and he has form here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (6/1 +0%)Sea The Light |
6/1(+0%) | (3) Sea The Light 6/1, Disappointing in first time blinkers, needed run beaten 6l in a handicap at Newcastle last time; trainer in form; effective 7-10f, may get bit further than 10f; looking flattered by maiden win. Debut winner who hasn't offered a great deal in four handicaps over longer distances, latterly in cheekpieces (reapplied) and blinkers; bit risky.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (7/1 +0%)Grey Soul |
7/1(+0%) | (4) Grey Soul 7/1, Ran to form just flattening out late back from break beaten 2 1/2l off this mark at Kempton last time; cheekpieces first time; effective 7f, may get a mile, acts on AW, yet to prove as effective on turf; in form and should come on for latest. Signed off for Roger Varian with a victory at Newcastle (1m AW) in first-time blinkers; shaped okay on yard debut when in no headgear at Kempton (1m) and could be a factor now tried in cheekpieces.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (8/1 +68%)Toralou |
8/1(+68%) | (8) Toralou 8/1, Made too much use of well beaten in a handicap at Newbury latest; top course jockey; suited by 8f and a sound surface; unreliable, flattered by maiden win. Much better record on turf than AW, though one she failed to enhance at Newbury 20 days ago; that was underwhelming.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (10/1 -67%)Auburn Avenue |
10/1(-67%) | (9) Auburn Avenue 10/1, Ran to current form beaten a nose off a 2lb lower mark at Dundalk last time; effective 8-9f on good or softer; frustrating maiden but on workable mark. Left Ireland for 15,000euros and a 15-race maiden, though very nearly put that right on the AW (1m) in October; has turf form as well; could be interesting on stable debut should market vibes be at all posititive.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (12/1 -20%)Sixfiveseven |
12/1(-20%) | (6) Sixfiveseven 12/1, Outpaced, unsuited by drop in trip beaten 3l off a 2lb higher mark at Chepstow last time; effective 8f on soft and good ground; needs to prove ability remains after lay off. Newmarket winner in late 2024 (1m, good; fine on soft); second run back from a long absence was better than the first and he might progress again; realistic mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (12/1 +14%)Eagle Day |
12/1(+14%) | (10) Eagle Day 12/1, Disappointing turf return well beaten in a handicap at Nottingham latest; effective 8-10f, suited by AW; largely out of form. His 8.6f win at Wolverhampton came out of the blue and he then disappointed at Nottingham; seems far more effective on the AW; tries an eyeshield.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (14/1 +0%)Orchard |
14/1(+0%) | (2) Orchard 14/1, Lost action, eased down the field in a handicap at Newbury most recent; in good form prior; returning from long layoff; gets a mile very well and may even want further ideally, acts on AW; generally consistent prior to lay off, likely to need this. Sole win and best form has been on the AW, and it's nearly a year since he finished last in a Newbury handicap (1m); perhaps best watched.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (20/1 +0%)Thiscouldbefun |
20/1(+0%) | (7) Thiscouldbefun 20/1, Below form when fourth beaten 7l in a handicap at Southwell latest; effective 7/8f, acts on any; more needed off this mark. Two 1m wins last year, on the AW and good to firm (handles soft); off since December but could have a big run in her with Ashley Lewis taking off 5lb.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (20/1 +39%)Mereside Madness |
20/1(+39%) | (12) Mereside Madness 20/1, Outpaced, never threatened well beaten in a handicap at Southwell latest; suited by 7f and a sound surface; poor of late. A four-time winner but has been regressing for a while and no effort of note for current yard.. |

Auburn Avenue ended last year's campaign for previous connections with a narrow defeat at Dundalk and she shouldn't be far away if performing to a similar level on her seasonal/stable debut. However, the five-year-old would make more appeal in headgear, which could leave the door open for the downgraded NAKAAHA. Grace Harris' filly hasn't been disgraced on her last two outings in class 4 company and she's attractively treated. Last month's Wolverhampton winner Devious Devan and Grey Soul are feasible alternatives.

(4) (10/3 +5%)Monvoe |
10/3(+5%) | (4) Monvoe 10/3, Improved again landing a handicap by 3l off a 8lb lower mark here last time; best at 7/8f on yielding, good and AW; more to come but new mark asks much more again. Rapid improver of late, twice runner-up on AW last autumn and has reappeared for back-to-back wins in 1m handicaps at Limerick and when running away late on under today's rider here last month; every chance of staying this extra furlong and could still have more to offer despite 16lb rise for two wins.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (7/2 +53%)Red Autumn |
7/2(+53%) | (1) Red Autumn 7/2, Best work late down in trip beaten 3 1/2l off a 2lb higher mark at Naas last time; off a short-break; effective 7/8f on soft and good; step back up in trip might suit. Won Bellewstown maiden last year and decent second in Roscommon winners' contest, best efforts; encouraging comeback run in Madrid Handicap at Naas in late March, staying on late into fourth over inadequate 7f; step up in trip seems sure to suit and top-weight should go well.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (4/1 0%)How'sthebai |
4/1(0%) | (3) How'sthebai 4/1, Travelled, ran to form on handicap debut beaten a length off a 2lb lower mark at Naas last time; top course jockey; effective 7f/1m, acts on soft, good and AW; consistent sort, can go well again. Off the mark in 1m AW maiden in October on last of three juvenile outings; very promising seasonal return in 1m Naas premier handicap in late April, staying on well in closing stages when beaten 1l into fourth (Son Of Beauty 2.75l away fifth); big player given normal improvement and longer trip.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (5/1 +58%)Sunrush |
5/1(+58%) | (7) Sunrush 5/1, Ran to form up to 1m beaten 6l in an auction race here last time; effective 7f/1m; more to come now handicapping. Last month's seasonal return here (1m) was okay but nothing to suggest he'll make an immediate impact in handicaps off this mark, albeit has to be respected from a yard having a great season.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (11/2 +8%)Johnny Soda |
11/2(+8%) | (5) Johnny Soda 11/2, Below form up in trip, didn't stay fifth beaten 7 1/2l off 78 last time, 1lb lower here; effective 7/8f, acts on soft and AW; slight drop in trip a plus. Breakthrough win at Cork (1m, soft) last month when coming late (beating a subsequent winner); didn't appear to stay 1m2f at Navan 13 days later, this intermediate trip could suit.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (7/1 -17%)Son Of Beauty |
7/1(-17%) | (2) Son Of Beauty 7/1, Ran to form up in trip on handicap debut beaten 4l off a 3lb higher mark at Naas last time; effectuve 7/8f, acts on soft, good and AW; reliable type. AW maiden winner over 1m in early March and just fair efforts since in Naas handicaps, beaten around 5l in Madrid Handicap (7f) and stayed on late over 1m when beaten under 4l in premier handicap in late April; up another furlong in trip here and needs to improve for it.. |

(6) (9/1 -20%)Ryefield Dasher |
9/1(-20%) | (6) Ryefield Dasher 9/1, Ran similarly to last time comfortably held in a maiden at The Curragh last time; effective at 8f, acts on Y; type to better handicapping over further now. Cheaply bought Time Test colt showed fair form in three outings late last season, latter two in good-class Curragh maidens when intimating a step up in trip would suit; lack of a recent run a concern here on seasonal return and handicap debut.. |

The smartly-bred SWEET BABY ZOU looks capable of defying a penalty, having won on Monday. Her initial form was ordinary but having shaped well in her initial handicaps, scored readily at Gowran. She is 4lb well-in despite the penalty and is open to further progression. Monvoe has won twice recently and is another with strong claims. Red Autumn hasn't raced since finishing fourth in the prestigious Madrid Handicap in March, which was won by a subsequent Group 3 winner, and has winning form on good ground.

(4) (1/2 +25%)Fire Thunder |
1/2(+25%) | (4) Fire Thunder 1/2, Confirmed debut level when second beaten 1 1/4l in a maiden at Windsor latest; effective 6f on good and AW; improvement likely still. Showed plenty when runner-up in similar events at Wolverhampton and Windsor last month; looks like a winner waiting to happen and must be on the shortlist.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (9/2 0%)It'sbeenemotional |
9/2(0%) | (6) It'sbeenemotional 9/2, Bit keen but showed promise on debut 3l fourth in a novice at Kempton first-time out; effective 6f on AW; more to offer. Showed ability when fourth of ten on her debut at Kempton (6f, AW; 9-1) 15 days ago, gradually getting the hang of things as the race developed; should be sharper with that run under her belt.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (8/1 -45%)Tricky Jenny |
8/1(-45%) | (10) Tricky Jenny 8/1, Showed more than on debut up in trip beaten 2 1/4l in a novice at Ripon last time; top course jockey; effective 6f; improvement needed. Beaten 12l when fifth of ten on her debut at Musselburgh (5f, soft) in April but showed more when sixth of eight at Ripon (6f, good) last month; holds place claims.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (14/1 +50%)Rocsane |
14/1(+50%) | (8) Rocsane 14/1, Modest debut well beaten in a maiden at Yarmouth only start; improvement likely but could need more time. Beaten 13l on debut at Yarmouth (6f, good to soft) last month; makes AW debut and will know more this time.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (28/1 -75%)Doha Rd |
28/1(-75%) | (3) Doha Rd 28/1, Confirmed debut level beaten 9l in a maiden at Bath last time; trainer in form; might do better now at 6f. Slowly away in two runs at Bath (5f, good); steps up in trip on AW debut and needs to break on terms.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (33/1 -32%)Holliesthedollie |
33/1(-32%) | (5) Holliesthedollie 33/1, Modest debut well beaten in a maiden at Bath only start; improvement needed. Hung left throughout when beaten 12l on her debut at Bath (5.5f, firm; 20-1) in April; steps up in trip on AW debut and needs to show improvement.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (50/1 -25%)River In Paradise |
50/1(-25%) | (7) River In Paradise 50/1, 13 Jan; 10,000gns Lope Y Fernandez filly; dam smart from 8f to 11f; not an easy one to fancy on debut. 10,000gns yearling; first foal; by Lope Y Fernandez; dam 1m AW winner (RPR 98), half-sister to useful 1m2f-1m4f winner Look Closely, out of 1m 2yo Listed winning half-sister to US 1m/8.5f Grade 3 winner Thewayiam; makes debut and likely to need more time.. |

66/1(-65%) | (2) Defiant Dream 66/1, 5 Mar; 1,000gns Dream Ahead filly; half-sister to Whernside, useful at 7f; dam fair at 7f; up against it on debut. 1,000gns yearling; second foal; by Dream Ahead; dam 7f winner (RPR 70), half-sister to winners Kiniro (6f), Perfect Charm (5f), Inflamed (1m/8.6f 2yo) and Lucio Vero (French 1m6f/15.5f), out of 6f Listed winner; yard's first 2yo runner of the season and likely to need time.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (100/1 -25%)Sparkling Jem |
100/1(-25%) | (9) Sparkling Jem 100/1, Never in it from off the pace, poor debut well beaten in a maiden at Windsor only start; hard to make a case for. Always behind when beating only one rival at Windsor (6f, good to firm; 80-1) 12 days ago; AW debut; others preferred.. |

Look no further than FIRE THUNDER. She has shaped with more than enough promise in two starts at Wolverhampton and Windsor, finishing a close second on both occasions, to suggest a maiden of this nature is well within reach. She's unlikely to be much of a price, but should take all of the beating. The dangers are Tricky Jenny and It'sbeenemotional.

(2) (2/1 +33%)Kelly Burn |
2/1(+33%) | (2) Kelly Burn 2/1, Ran to form landing a handicap by a head off a 2lb lower mark at Wolverhampton last time; effective 8-12f on a sound surface; penultimate form franked, chance again here. Has improved for handicaps and edged home in a small field at Wolverhampton (1m4f AW); only 2lb higher now but in what looks a better race.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (10/3 +26%)Willow Wood |
10/3(+26%) | (5) Willow Wood 10/3, Bit free but saw out the longer trip on handicap debut when fourth beaten 6 1/4l in a handicap at Lingfield latest; effective 8-10f, acts on good to soft and AW; longer trips to suit now handicapping, more to come. 200,000gns 2yo who is bred to be better than this mark but she was beaten about 6l in her first handicap over 1m2f on the AW; has to improve on that effort but it's still relatively early days.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (11/2 +21%)Mick The Hat |
11/2(+21%) | (9) Mick The Hat 11/2, Ran more or less to form comfortably held in a novice at Epsom last time; top course trainer; should stay at least 10f; sort to do better in modest handicaps once qualified. Beaten at least 12l in three qualifying races (1m-8.6f) but now goes handicapping at a modest level and over a longer trip; the market could tell a tale.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (6/1 -140%)Brave Leader |
6/1(-140%) | (4) Brave Leader 6/1, Needed run on handicap debut comfortably held in a handicap at Doncaster last time; effective 1m, bred to get further, acts on AW; open to improvement, especially handicapping. Steady improvement last year and appeared to perform below expectations on his handicap debut at Doncaster (1m2f, good to firm; 9-4 favourite); interest to see if backers return.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (7/1 -27%)Salkadan |
7/1(-27%) | (3) Salkadan 7/1, Ran to form suited by positive ride landing a handicap by a short-head off a 2lb lower mark at Haydock last time; top course jockey; effective 12f on AW; more to come. Nearly won his first handicap and went one better in the second, albeit narrowly over a similar trip at Haydock (good); the runner-up was disappointing last weekend but this 3yo only went up 2lb and looks progressive.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (10/1 -11%)Reem Rak |
10/1(-11%) | (1) Reem Rak 10/1, Outpaced, needed run on handicap debut down the field in a handicap at Nottingham most recent; effective at 7/8f, middle-distance-bred, acts on AW; should do better again upped in trip. The form of her second at Newcastle last season reads well (7f AW) and she couldn't have given her true running when made favourite for handicap debut in April (1m); could be given another chance and she's bred for this far.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (12/1 0%)Al's River |
12/1(0%) | (6) Al's River 12/1, Outpaced, ran to form when fourth beaten 6l in a handicap at Southwell latest; blinkers first time; effective at 8-11f, acts on heavy and AW; needs a bit more in handicaps. Improved in last season's novice races at about 1m but it's been a low-key start in handicaps, at 1m2f and 1m3f; trainer turns to blinkers for some inspiration.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (18/1 -50%)Aravalli |
18/1(-50%) | (8) Aravalli 18/1, Improved again when fourth beaten 9l in an auction race at Cork latest; effective 8-10f; improvement likely up in trip now handicapping for new yard. Showed more on third and final run in Irish maidens, finishing fourth of ten at Cork (1m2f, soft); left Jessica Harrington for 22,000gns; likely best watched unless backed.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (33/1 +18%)Eze Sur Mer |
33/1(+18%) | (7) Eze Sur Mer 33/1, Outpaced, disappointing handicap debut comfortably held in a handicap at Redcar last time; stays 10f, middle-distance bred, both decent efforts on AW; minor promise so far but not the most generous mark. Not that dangerous in her first three races and again when 33-1 for handicap debut at Redcar (1m2f); wouldn't be the obvious answer.. |

Salkadan likely has a future over hurdles, but is kept to this discipline for now having made all at Haydock last time. Dan Skelton's charge can feature again, along with the recent Wolverhampton winner Kelly Burn, but it could be the turn of WILLOW WOOD. The daughter of Wootton Bassett should have come on a good deal for her reappearance/handicap debut and Ed Walker's filly looks sure to relish this extra test of stamina.

(11) (3/1 +50%)Majestic King |
3/1(+50%) | (11) Majestic King 3/1, Ran to form up in trip second beaten 3/4l off 64 last time, 7lb higher here; suited by 8-10f, acts on soft and good to yielding; new mark asks more but is in fine form. Well-bred Godolphin cast-off progressing well in handicaps of late, ready winner over 1m at Gowran and three days later staying on second under hefty weight over today's trip at Ballinrobe; runs off 7lb higher mark here so needs to take another step forward, but possible.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (4/1 +33%)Booyea |
4/1(+33%) | (1) Booyea 4/1, Ran to form beaten 5l in a handicap at Naas last time; effective 7-9f on sound surface; needs to build on latest. Best run last year when second in valuable C\u0026D handicap (good to firm) in first-time cheekpieces off 90; form regressed afterwards but encouraging seasonal return (well-backed) at Naas last month over 1m; down in grade here off a fair mark so one to consider.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (6/1 +0%)Diamond Exchange |
6/1(+0%) | (3) Diamond Exchange 6/1, Ran to form landing a handicap by a head off a 4lb lower mark here last time; suited by 10/11f, acts on yielding, good and AW; mark remains fair. Nicely progressive filly won AW maiden in January and has returned with good efforts in cheekpieces in 1m2f handicaps here, most recently asserting well inside final furlong for head win; 4lb rise okay, needs to find more.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (6/1 +25%)Molto Amichi |
6/1(+25%) | (10) Molto Amichi 6/1, Best work late down in trip beaten 8 1/2l in a handicap here last time; off a short-break; effective 9-10f; needs more back on Flat. Maiden placed several times last year including over C\u0026D off 77; last month's comeback run here (1m) should have brought him on.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (15/2 -7%)Harana |
15/2(-7%) | (7) Harana 15/2, Yard won this last year; confirmed debut level up 4f in trip tried in cheekpieces 6l third in a maiden at Roscommon most recent run; effective 8-12f on soft and good; good chance on this handicap debut although drop in trip a possible negative. Very lightly raced 4yo; promising debut second in 1m Gowran maiden last year, absent for 13 months until third in Roscommon maiden last month over 1m4f, weakening late; back in trip for handicap debut with potential for improvement.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(13) (9/1 +50%)No More Porter |
9/1(+50%) | (13) No More Porter 9/1, Ran to form, best work late down in trip 4 1/4l third in a handicap at the Curragh most recent run; effective 8-11f, acts on heavy, good and AW; chance again. All three Curragh wins have been over shorter; has run okay on occasions over this sort of trip but opposable on balance of form and draw not great.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (9/1 -13%)Sonoran |
9/1(-13%) | (2) Sonoran 9/1, Bit keen but ran to form up in trip beaten a length off a 2lb lower mark here last time; top course jockey; effective 8-10f, acts on soft, good and AW; chance if building on latest. Won 7f Tipperary maiden on debut a year ago; hasn't won since in seven starts although best effort here last month when close third over 1m2f; 2lb higher and wide draw a negative.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (14/1 -17%)Coul Dreamer |
14/1(-17%) | (9) Coul Dreamer 14/1, Ran to form down 4f in trip 2l third in a maiden at Killarney most recent run; effective 8-10f; chance if building on latest back in a handicap. Winning hurdler but 0-9 on the Flat, placed in Clonmel maiden over today's trip last season and more recently staying on third over 1m in Killarney maiden last month; needs to improve on previous handicap efforts though.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (16/1 -45%)Daler |
16/1(-45%) | (6) Daler 16/1, Too keen, below best beaten 6 1/2l in a handicap at Naas last time; cheekpieces first time; effective 7/8f, acts on yielding, good and AW; remains 3lb above last win mark. Got first career win with comfortable 1m Dundalk handicap success in October off 72; just fair efforts on AW afterwards and turf return at Naas last month was just okay (keen); cheekpieces now added.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(16) (16/1 -14%)Elusive Duke |
16/1(-14%) | (16) Elusive Duke 16/1, Ran to current form 9 1/4l third in a handicap at Naas most recent run; returning from long layoff; effective 8-10f; little bit to come. C\u0026D winner a year ago for Kevin Coleman off 58; absent since beaten favourite at Naas in August so may need this.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (18/1 +55%)Pillar Of Hope |
18/1(+55%) | (4) Pillar Of Hope 18/1, Below from down the field in a handicap at the Curragh most recent; effective 10-13f, acts on heavy and good; remains 7lb above last win mark. Five turf wins, most recently here over 1m2f last October off 70; yet to hit form this season however and remains opposable.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (18/1 -157%)Lough Leane |
18/1(-157%) | (12) Lough Leane 18/1, Ended a losing run landing a handicap by 2 1/2l off a 6lb lower mark at Ballinrobe last time; effective 8-12f, acts on heavy and good; fair mark still. All six wins in Britain came on the AW; first success on turf came last month over this trip at Ballinrobe, quickening off a slow pace, despite racing keenly; 6lb rise but remains on a workable mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(14) (20/1 -11%)Gotta Catch'em All |
20/1(-11%) | (14) Gotta Catch'em All 20/1, Never in it from off the pace beaten 7 1/2l in a handicap at Roscommon last time; effective 8-12f, acts soft, good and AW; bounce back needed. 24-race maiden has been running respectably this season but hard to see him breaking his duck here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(15) (33/1 -18%)Cooley's Mist |
33/1(-18%) | (15) Cooley's Mist 33/1, Never in it from off the pace upped in trip well beaten in a handicap at Roscommon latest; effective 9-10f, acts on heavy and good; bounce back needed. Fourth of 21 on C\u0026D handicap debut last summer was his best run for Natalia Lupini; no show on last month's Roscommon comeback, entitled to improve for that but an unlikely one.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (40/1 -60%)Walhaan |
40/1(-60%) | (5) Walhaan 40/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Killarney latest; suited by 10/11f, acts on any; inconsistent veteran. Seven Flat wins include over C\u0026D, and more recently on the AW in December; trip inadequate on seasonal return here in April and has since been pulled up over hurdles; champion jockey booked but veteran appears vulnerable.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (50/1 -127%)Lahore Da King |
50/1(-127%) | (8) Lahore Da King 50/1, Didn't stay upped in trip when seventh beaten 5 1/2l off 75 last time, 1lb lower here; effective at 7/8f, acts on soft, good and AW; drop in trip a plus here. Back-to-back AW winner in December over 7f and landed Bellewstown handicap (1m, soft) in April but well held both starts since, not looking to stay extended 1m2f at Roscommon latest; opposable off current mark.. |

DIAMOND EXCHANGE is in top form and should again be competitive at her favourite course. Runner-up here in a maiden, the selection wasn't beaten far on handicap debut here in April and she reverted to good ground when scoring in May. She is 4lb higher but is by Wootton Bassett, so can progress further. Lough Leane is 6lb higher than when winning at Ballinrobe and is also without his then rider's 7lb claim, while Majestic King failed to defy a penalty at Ballinrobe but has been freshened up since.

(8) (10/11 0%)Ron's Angel |
10/11(0%) | (8) Ron's Angel 10/11, Promising debut runner-up beaten a neck in a maiden at Bath only start; top course jockey; effective 5f on good; extra furlong set to suit here. Friendless in the market for Bath debut (5f) in May but she travelled strongly and found only one with previous experience too good (the pair clear of the third who has run well since); should cope with this sharp 6f now switched to AW; good claims under Rossa Ryan who's 9-25 for yard in recent years.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (4/1 +33%)Zigazig Ah |
4/1(+33%) | (10) Zigazig Ah 4/1, 10 Feb; 13,000gns Rajasinghe filly; sister to Giant, useful at 7f; dam smart at 8f; respected on debut. February foal; 13,000gns yearling; fourth foal; Rajasinghe sister to winners Giant (7f/1m AW including 2yo; RPR 90) and I Follow Rivers (7f AW; 70); dam Listed-placed 6f/7f winner (including 2yo; 95); yard 2-26 with 2yos on the AW here; market can guide.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (15/2 -173%)Forest Berry |
15/2(-173%) | (4) Forest Berry 15/2, Improved nicely on debut effort when second beaten a length in a maiden at Chepstow latest; effective 6f on good to soft; open to further improvement. Most of her pedigree suggests 1m+ should suit but her dam won at about 6f in the US and this 2yo showed plenty of dash when runner-up at Chepstow (6f) recently on her second start; should improve further on this return to Polytrack; can be involved again.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (8/1 +50%)Last Dandelion |
8/1(+50%) | (6) Last Dandelion 8/1, Improved a little on debut effort beaten 5 1/4l in a novice at Newmarket last time; effective 6f on good; likely to need more time. 66-1 and remote on Kempton AW debut but there was much more evidence of ability when fifth of 13 at Newmarket (6f; 200-1) to a useful winner, looking likely to finish third until two rivals came past very late on; can improve further but handicaps may be her best option.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (12/1 -20%)Potters Margot |
12/1(-20%) | (7) Potters Margot 12/1, 27 Mar; Lope Y Fernandez filly; half-sister to Gigi's Beach, fair at 6f; dam smart at 6f as a 2yo; up against it on debut. March foal; seventh foal; Lope Y Fernandez half-sister to winners Gigi's Beach (6f-1m AW; RPR 70) and Ciyounesse (German 1m/8.5f including AW); dam US 1m turf 2yo winner (including stakes; 100); nice enough pedigree but likely to need a run or two.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (16/1 -14%)Dun Eideann |
16/1(-14%) | (3) Dun Eideann 16/1, Some promise on debut after a slow start beaten 3 1/4l in a novice at Wolverhampton on debut; effective 6f on AW; fair chance with improvement likely. 25-1 for Wolverhampton AW debut (6f) 24 days ago and although never remotely involved after starting slowly, she did make some late inroads into sixth of 11; should know more this time and can improve.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (40/1 -21%)Clear Horizon |
40/1(-21%) | (1) Clear Horizon 40/1, 16 Apr; 12,000gns Without Parole filly; half-sister to Dashing Darcey, smart at 8f; dam fair at 7f; could have a say on debut. April foal; 12,000gns yearling; fourth foal; Without Parole sister to 1m4f winner Emily Rebecca (RPR 67), half-sister to 1m winner Dashing Darcey (including 2yo/AW; 98); dam 7f AW winner (58) from family of fine sprinters Deacon Blues and The Tin Man; yard's newcomers can go well at a price on debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (66/1 -136%)Happy Humpo |
66/1(-136%) | (5) Happy Humpo 66/1, Yard won this last year; improved a little on debut effort beaten 10l in a seller at Chester last time; effective 6f on good; light-framed, type to do better in handicaps. Minor form over 5f at Beverley and when dropped into a seller at Chester (6f; 20-1); has a lot to find in a maiden.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (150/1 -127%)Deja Vu Diva |
150/1(-127%) | (2) Deja Vu Diva 150/1, Poor debut well beaten in a maiden at Yarmouth only start; major improvement needed. Bred to be speedy but she achieved little on her Yarmouth debut (6f; 250-1) in May; one to watch for now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (200/1 -150%)Sea Of Sardinia |
200/1(-150%) | (9) Sea Of Sardinia 200/1, Again ran to a poor level tried in tongue-tie down the field in a novice at Yarmouth most recent; sprint-bred, sound surfaces should suit action; yet to beat a rival in two starts. Modest form when failing to beat a rival in 5f events at Newmarket (made the running and faded) and Yarmouth (first time tongue tied); minor handicaps on the agenda after today.. |

Having posted a most encouraging second on her debut over 5f at Bath, this could prove a suitable opportunity for RON'S ANGEL to shed her maiden tag. This extra furlong should suit the daughter of Harry Angel and she's likely to prove a warm order. Forest Berry left her opening seventh at Kempton behind with a good runner-up performance at Chepstow recently and she may serve the most resistance to the selection, ahead of Last Dandelion.

5/4(+69%) | (3) Buck Barrow 5/4, Outpaced, never threatened up in trip beaten 10l in a handicap at Bath last time; effective 10-12f, acts on any; bounce back needed. Sole win came in 1m2f handicap here last June on good to soft; below par this season but the recent rain heightens interest.. |

(4) (9/4 +50%)Change Of Fortune |

Strike-rate of 1-36 but not had many chances at 1m4f over which he was beaten 3l in a classified race on the AW last time; possible.. |

Dual winner but 0-11 for current yard and essentially regressive; off since January.. |

(8) (22/1 +56%)Oceanides |
22/1(+56%) | (8) Oceanides 22/1, Outpaced, looked in need of stiffer test well beaten in a maiden at Wolverhampton latest; off a short-break; middle-distance bred; longer trip a plus on handicap debut but all to prove. Poor form in a bumper and three runs on the AW at up to 9.4f; has a BHA mark of 23.. |

25/1(+24%) | (7) Lamlash 25/1, No worthwhile form; yet to beat a rival home in either code and impossible to fancy. Pulled up in one hurdle start and has yet to beat a rival on the Flat, including a handicap.. |

Only fourth back in handicap company last time, BELLE AMIE had won one of these events at Wolverhampton prior to that. She looks worthy of another chance back at this level with Jack Dace's 5lb allowance further helping her cause. Highland Harvey (second) has a bit to find with the selection on that Wolverhampton form, although he has placed again subsequently. He is a bigger threat than Change Of Fortune of the remainder.

(11) (5/2 +38%)Chirac |
5/2(+38%) | (11) Chirac 5/2, Improved to get off the mark up 2f in trip landing a handicap by 3l off a 7lb lower mark at Gowran Park last time; effective 5-7f, seems to act on soft and AW; more to come upped to 1m now. Has taken well to handicapping, good fourth to an improver over 5f at Naas before relishing step up to 7f for ready success at Gowran (soft) in April, coming late off a good pace; good chance he'll stay 1m and 7lb rise looks fair; decent draw too.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (10/3 +49%)Almeiyda |
10/3(+49%) | (1) Almeiyda 10/3, Bit keen but ran to form when fourth beaten 6l in a maiden at Gowran Park latest; effective 1m/9f on sound surface; interesting down in trip on handicap debut. Didn't appear to stay extended 1m2f at Gowran last month in what looked a decent maiden; could still have more to offer and capable of going well off this opening mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (9/2 +0%)Nicky Larson |
9/2(+0%) | (9) Nicky Larson 9/2, Ran to form on handicap debut beaten 3 1/4l off a 1lb lower mark at Limerick last time; effective 1m on soft and yielding; might do better still, chance here. Good start to handicapping when chasing home a clear-cut winner over this trip at Limerick in April (yielding); just 1lb higher and rider now claims 7lb so one to consider.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (7/1 +13%)Down The Glen |
7/1(+13%) | (3) Down The Glen 7/1, Too keen up in trip beaten 3l off a 2lb higher mark at Sligo last time; trainer in form; effective 7-11ff, acts on heavy and good; generally consistent and versatile enough to cope with big drop in trip. 7f Galway nursery winner on heavy ground last season; extended 1m2f seemed too far at Sligo on latest, so should appreciate this drop back in distance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (15/2 +32%)Bear Right |
15/2(+32%) | (10) Bear Right 15/2, Again below form beaten 9 1/2l in a handicap at Cork last time; effective 7/8f on sound surface; needs more. Yet to make an impact in handicaps, not looking to get home on soft over this trip at Cork on latest; plenty to find.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (8/1 +20%)Glamazon |
8/1(+20%) | (7) Glamazon 8/1, Below form down in trip back in a handicap beaten 9 1/4l in a handicap at the Curragh last time; effective 5f-1m on soft and good; bounce back needed. Well exposed before Ballinrobe maiden win last month (1m1f) and faded tamely after forcing much of pace back in handicap company at the Curragh when racing from 7lb out of the handicap; drops in grade but remains vulnerable to improvers.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(16) (9/1 +73%)Only One Scobie |
9/1(+73%) | (16) Only One Scobie 9/1, Never in it from off the pace down the field in a handicap at Roscommon most recent; effective at 1m on soft; needs more. Beaten only a couple of rivals in two handicap efforts; handicapper relenting but remains opposable.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (11/1 +8%)Two And Two |
11/1(+8%) | (2) Two And Two 11/1, Ran to form on turf/handicap debut tried in a hood beaten 2 1/2l off a 3lb higher mark at The Curragh last time; off a short-break; effective 6f, acts on heavy and AW; probably more to come although stamina for 1m to prove. Made all in 6f Dundalk 3yo contest in January and showed speed (hooded) for a long way in Curragh handicap over same trip on opening day of season before fading in heavy ground; back from a break and upped in trip with headgear left off.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(14) (12/1 +25%)Wicklow Gap |
12/1(+25%) | (14) Wicklow Gap 12/1, Ran to form tried in tongue-tie beaten 3l off a 1lb higher mark at Roscommon last time; effective 6/7f on a sound surface; worth a shot at 1m. Last month's Roscommon run his best yet, good fourth after not clear run in first-time tongue-tie; claims if overcoming this wide draw.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (12/1 -33%)Cosmic Funk |
12/1(-33%) | (6) Cosmic Funk 12/1, Bit keen up in trip beaten 7 1/2l in a maiden at Down Royal last time; effective 7/8f, acts on soft and good; drop to 1m might help. Last Friday's step up in trip at Down Royal didn't bring any improvement; back in trip for handicap debut (down 2lb in future).. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (14/1 +13%)Themis |
14/1(+13%) | (5) Themis 14/1, Never in it from off the pace, below form down the field in an auction race at Dundalk most recent; usually held up; wants 10f-plus; could improve here but needs much more. Three runs have amounted to little, poor run at Dundalk last time; Irish Oaks entry is unrealistic but evidently held in some regard so could make an impact on handicap debut off a modest mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(13) (28/1 -27%)No More Hiding |
28/1(-27%) | (13) No More Hiding 28/1, Never threatened back up in trip down the field in a handicap at Dundalk most recent; returning from a break; stout pedigree and best run so far at 1m; hard to fancy. Tried over different trips in four AW runs over the winter, final occasion hung badly left in straight when well held on handicap debut; Billy Lee takes over for turf debut, interesting if any market support arrives.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (33/1 0%)Jp's Express |
33/1(0%) | (4) Jp's Express 33/1, Never in it after a slow start down the field in a handicap at Naas most recent; effective 7f with cut and on AW; bounce back needed. All runs have been over shorter trips, never counting after slow start on handicap debut at Naas last time; upped in trip and dropped 7lb; poor draw.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (50/1 -25%)De Songbird |
50/1(-25%) | (12) De Songbird 50/1, Again below debut level beaten 10l in an auction race here last time; effective 1m; more to come now handicapping. No real threat in three maiden runs within a month in the spring; wide draw for handicap debut and hard to make a case for.. |

CHIRAC won just an ordinary handicap in April but it is hoped he will continue to progress. A half-brother to four winners, the selection showed the benefit of stepping back up in trip when scoring at Gowran and while this is a stronger race, he should get involved at the business end. Two And Two hasn't been seen since running satisfactorily at the Curragh in March but that race was on heavy ground and the Dundalk scorer should be better suited by this going. Wicklow Gap didn't get a clear opening when running well at Roscommon last month and looks capable of winning from his rating.

(2) (9/4 +59%)Sail On Sailor |
9/4(+59%) | (2) Sail On Sailor 9/4, Ran to best to get off the mark, hit the line well landing a handicap by a nose off a 3lb lower mark at Bath last time; effective 7/8f, acts on AW and probably good to soft; respected off new mark. Placed on his first two starts for this yard before opening his account at Bath (1m, good) last month, leading in the final strides; more to do off 3lb higher on return to AW but may have more to give.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (9/4 +25%)Fallacious Promise |
9/4(+25%) | (7) Fallacious Promise 9/4, Improved up in trip to 10f beaten 2l off a 3lb lower mark at Newcastle last time; trainer in form; usually held up; suited by 1m-10f, acts on AW; going in the right direction. Found one too good for the second time in succession up in trip at Newcastle (1m2f, AW; 5-4) last month; knocking on the door and this drop back to 1m could pay dividends.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (7/2 +46%)Case Study |
7/2(+46%) | (4) Case Study 7/2, Needed run, maybe didn't stay beaten 8l in a handicap at Newmarket last time; cheekpieces first time; speedily-bred; needs to leave reappearance behind. Unplaced in four starts, including on handicap debut at Newmarket (1m, good; 28-1) last month; takes a drop in class in first-time cheekpieces and is in good hands, so there could be more to come from her.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (13/2 +41%)Angel Summer |
13/2(+41%) | (1) Angel Summer 13/2, Below form on handicap/turf debut comfortably held in a handicap at Yarmouth last time; effective 6f, acts on AW, sound surfaces will suit; bounce back needed. Steady improvement on AW during the winter but reportedly lost her action when beaten 12l on turf/handicap debut at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) in April; steps up in trip and needs to get back on track on this return to AW.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (8/1 +33%)Lordsbridge Bay |
8/1(+33%) | (6) Lordsbridge Bay 8/1, Below form down in trip back on turf down the field in a handicap here most recent; hood first time; stays 1m, acts on AW; needs more. Made steady progress in novice/maiden company but hasn't gone on in a couple of handicaps since, on latest start beaten 22l on turf debut here last month; first-time hood needs to being about improvement.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (17/2 0%)Beryl's Girl |
17/2(0%) | (3) Beryl's Girl 17/2, Below form beaten 4l off this mark at Windsor last time; effective 6f on good; bounce back needed. Consistent in her five runs to date; makes AW debut and she needs that bit extra in order to register her first win.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (14/1 -40%)Mist Of Time |
14/1(-40%) | (8) Mist Of Time 14/1, Getting better with each run albeit still comfortably held in a novice at Chelmsford last time; bred to be effective at 7f; these low-grade handicaps likely to be more her thing. Down the field in three 7f AW runs last autumn; up in trip and needs to pull out more on this handicap debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (40/1 -82%)Moonlight Angel |
40/1(-82%) | (10) Moonlight Angel 40/1, Again ran to a poor level down the field in a maiden at Southwell most recent; bred for 6/7f; needs improvement. Has beaten only three rivals in her three runs over 6f; steps up in trip on handicap debut and more is required from her.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (50/1 -79%)Ruiz |
50/1(-79%) | (11) Ruiz 50/1, Never in it after a slow start down the field in a maiden at Kempton most recent; likely to need more time. Has yet to finish ahead of a rival in three starts; steps up in trip in handicap debut but easy to dismiss.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (66/1 -136%)Laurasia |
66/1(-136%) | (9) Laurasia 66/1, Struggled to get involved again well beaten in a novice at Epsom latest; returning from long layoff; usually held up; poor so far. Moderate debut and beaten 21l at 50-1 on her second start, after which she left James Owen for 1,000gns; last of eight last August on first start for this stable and big improvement is required up in trip on handicap debut.. |

Sail On Sailor displayed a willing attitude when opening his account by the narrowest of margins at Bath last month and a 3lb rise shouldn't prevent another bold showing. However, a 2lb nudge up in the ratings for HOVE RANGER's breakthrough triumph at Kempton in February looks a touch more lenient and he shades the vote. The lightly-raced Case Study is also worth a second in first-time cheekpieces.

(3) (6/4 +50%)Ghost Story |
6/4(+50%) | (3) Ghost Story 6/4, Ran to form 5 1/2l third in a handicap at Lingfield most recent run; trainer in form; effective 10-11f, acts on AW, suited by cut; in good form, latest run boosted. Lightly raced and her two wins have been over 1m2f on good to soft and soft; perhaps a tad high in the weights but her AW reappearance was respectable and this scenario suits her better.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (3/1 -9%)Mighty Quiet |
3/1(-9%) | (1) Mighty Quiet 3/1, Below form up in class, needed run beaten 9 1/4l in a handicap at Nottingham last time; off a short-break; effective at 10f, best form with give; form in and out last term but competitive off this mark. Effective on good and heavy; quiet comeback run and she can be inconsistent, but she's a dual winner on a fair mark and very capable at this level.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (4/1 -14%)Crackergee |
4/1(-14%) | (4) Crackergee 4/1, Ran to form just flattening out up in trip when fourth beaten 7l in a handicap at Kempton latest; top course jockey; effective 12f, stays 14f, acts on AW; inconsistent maiden but chance on best form. 11-race maiden having only his third run on turf; yet to find his best form this season and the headgear tried last time is dispensed with.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (11/2 +0%)Premier |
11/2(+0%) | (2) Premier 11/2, Needed run after wind op beaten 7l in a handicap at Lingfield last time; second run after wind op; possibly best 1m on testing ground, flat winner likely has future over hurdles; generally consistent dual purpose performer. Both wins, including one over hurdles, came in a hood, which was absent when well beaten on the AW last month and again here; others preferred.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (10/1 -11%)Risen Again |
10/1(-11%) | (5) Risen Again 10/1, Flattened out late having met trouble beaten 9l in a handicap at Windsor last time; usually held up; effective 9/10f, acts on good and AW, likes fast ground; longer trip a plus but bounce back needed. A fair 1m2f winner at his best but yet to run a race of note since leaving Alice Haynes.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (12/1 -140%)Zambezi Magic |
12/1(-140%) | (6) Zambezi Magic 12/1, Outpaced, needed stiffer test and run beaten 4l in a handicap at Lingfield last time; usually held up; off a short-break; effective at 10f, acts on heavy, good to firm and AW; loves the track and forecast rain a plus. Ran okay after a break on the AW and he loves it here, especially when the mud is flying; the recent rain has helped his cause no end.. |

MIGHTY QUIET steps up in distance having won over 1m2f at Windsor last term. Only 2lb higher here with a recent reappearance under her belt, Harry Charlton's charge could prove to be the one to side with off what looks a workable mark. Zambezi Magic would prefer slower ground but has won seven times at this venue and is not totally discounted, while Ghost Story is another with a shout if the rain arrives.

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.
