13:30 Ayr Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

It is difficult to predict with certainty which horse will do well based on this summary, as there is no clear standout performer. However, based on recent form and previous wins at the course, 2/1 (3) FAR FROM A RUBY and 3/1 (5) COSA SARA seem like strong contenders to finish in the top three. 3.33/1 (1) BULLS AYE could also be a consideration if he can put his recent disappointing run behind him. Ultimately, the outcome of the race will depend on many variables, including the form of each horse on the day and the conditions of the track.

DARK COMPANY wasn't disgraced when fourth at Wolverhampton on his latest outing and the five-year-old, who was dropped 1lb by the handicapper, appears to have been found a suitable opportunity to gain his first success on turf. Far From A Ruby boasts a decent record at this track and is likely to be competitive following her recent fourth at Southwell. Last year's winner Cosa Sara could easily bounce back from her return effort at Bath and is noted along with Bulls Aye.

Hard to make a compelling case for any of these but FAR FROM A RUBY took a big step in the right direction when fourth at Southwell last time and she's well weighed these days. Cosa Sara and Dark Company are probably the chief threats.

This might go to FAR FROM A RUBY, who signalled a return to form on the AW last month and won over C&D off a higher mark last year.

14:00 Ayr Handicap (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

It is difficult to predict a clear winner from this summary as many of the horses have been inconsistent in their recent form or have not raced in a while. However, based on their past performances and course experience, the top three horses that may have a good chance of finishing well are: 1. 28/1 (5) BOUDICA BAY - With nine 5f wins under her belt and a recent win at Haydock, 28/1 (5) BOUDICA BAY has proven to be a strong competitor at this distance. She may benefit from starting out with a new yard and could be a strong contender if she's fit and ready. 2. 1.1/1 (2) JORDAN ELECTRICS - This horse has shown some potential with a creditable seventh place in a recent handicap and previous course experience. With a bit more fitness under his belt, he may be able to improve and finish well in this race. 3. 5.5/1 (4) SIXCOR - With three C&D wins and a fourth place finish in a recent handicap, 5.5/1 (4) SIXCOR may be able to hold his own in this race

This represents a drop in class for JORDAN ELECTRICS, who is entitled to improve for an encouraging comeback run over this trip at Musselburgh last month. Off the same mark, he is fancied to go well, but the reopposing Bert Kibbler is another to consider now rated 2lb lower following that effort 26 days ago when he wasn't beaten too far by the selection. Sixcor makes his return to action following a decent fourth at Pontefract last September and completes the shortlist.

All four of BERT KIBBLER's career victories have come on all weather to date but he's effective on turf and, best not judged too harshly on his latest Musselburgh run, he could be worth chancing from his easing mark. Jordan Electrics and the returning Sixcor head up the dangers.

14:35 Ayr Maiden (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Based on the summary, 0.83/1 (2) HEY LYLA seems like the clear pick on form and has recently performed well. For the remaining two places, 2/1 (1) FLEUR DE MER has a good pedigree with multiple winners in the family, but their debut performance was not strong. 9/1 (6) PURNIKA has an interesting pedigree and is a newcomer to watch out for. 1st place: 0.83/1 (2) HEY LYLA 2nd place: 9/1 (6) PURNIKA 3rd place: 2/1 (1) FLEUR DE MER

HEY LYLA remains a maiden after seven starts, but she continues to run well in defeat. Charlie Johnston's filly sets the standard on official ratings and must hold every chance of opening her account, providing she can run to a similar level. Purnika boasts an appealing pedigree and she merits the utmost respect on debut, while Out Of Mischief, who finished a good fourth at Wolverhampton in November, has the ability to go close too.

HEY LYLA bumped into a useful one at Epsom on her return and this represents an excellent opportunity. David O'Meara's newcomer Purnika may emerge as the biggest threat.

Charlie Johnston's filly HEY LYLA is beginning to look exposed after seven runs but she has shown some fairly useful form.

15:05 Ayr Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Based on the summary, it is difficult to predict with certainty which horse will finish in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. However, 3/1 (5) SHINE ON BRENDAN and 1.75/1 (2) STAR SHIELD seem to be the most likely contenders, with both being C&D winners and arriving in good form. 3.33/1 (1) FLYLIKEANEAGLE also has potential, having recently won a handicap race at Musselburgh, but may struggle with a weight increase. 3.33/1 (3) SHOWMEDEMONEY could be a decent bet for a place, having consistently placed in recent races. Overall, the race seems quite competitive and any of these horses could place in the top three.

FLYLIKEANEAGLE struck by three lengths at Musselburgh last time on his return to the Flat, and the six-year-old gelding was raised 6lb for that effort. The quicker conditions are unlikely to trouble him and, with Brandon Wilkie claiming 7lb, he could prove very tough to beat. An interesting contender is Alpine Sierra, who makes his return to action after having a wind operation and tries a first-time tongue-tie, which could eke out improvement. Star Shield is another to note.

C&D scorer STAR SHIELD shaped as if in top form when fifth at Newcastle last time and can capitalise on a handy-looking mark at the chief expense of recent Musselburgh victor Flylikeaneagle, who can also boast a C&D win and rates a big threat. In-form Showmedemoney appeals as the pick of the rest for minor honours.

15:40 Ayr Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Based on the information provided, it is difficult to confidently predict which horse will do well. However, 1.75/1 (1) WATER OF LEITH and 3.5/1 (2) OUR ABSENT FRIENDS seem to have a higher chance of performing well as they have recent wins and are only slightly above their successful marks. 7.5/1 (3) TANGLED may struggle with the drop back to 6f, and 4/1 (5) FORESEEABLE FUTURE may need another run or two to reach peak fitness. 4.5/1 (4) THAKI also remains unproven on turf. Therefore, our prediction for the top three finishers would be 1.75/1 (1) WATER OF LEITH in first place, 3.5/1 (2) OUR ABSENT FRIENDS in second place, and 4.5/1 (4) THAKI in third place.

OUR ABSENT FRIENDS has been in excellent form on the all-weather and a mere 2lb rise for his most recent success at Newcastle may not be enough to stop him going in again. Stepping back up in trip looks like another plus and he can see off the capable Water Of Leith and Thaki, who performed well on his first start for new connections last month.

It's unlikely OUR ABSENT FRIENDS will have reached his limit after only 3 handicap starts and he could take a bit of stopping if proving as effective on turf. Water of Leith should find this a lot easier than the big-field Musselburgh Class 2 he ran in last time and has a good record here so he's feared most.

Topweight WATER OF LEITH has made a quiet start to this season but contests a much easier race today and is given the verdict.

16:10 Ayr Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Based on the summary, the horse that seems most likely to do well and finish in the top three is 3.33/1 (3) GRACES QUEST. It had two wins last season and is consistent in the main. The other two horses that could potentially finish in the top three are 5.5/1 (6) FLYING MOON, who has a good record when fresh and has won at this C&D three times before, and 4/1 (2) BERRY EDGE, who is down in grade and has placed four times on turf last year. Therefore, the predicted order of finish is: 1. 3.33/1 (3) GRACES QUEST 2. 5.5/1 (6) FLYING MOON 3. 4/1 (2) BERRY EDGE

Kalahari Prince hasn't shown much in two starts this season, but that may all change with the application of a first-time visor potentially making a difference. Graces Quest was a consistent performer last season and she has to be of interest, despite dropping in trip. The vote, though, goes to BERRY EDGE. He was knocking on the door on several occasions in 2022 and this may be the time to catch him as he returns from a break.

GRACES QUEST wasn't at her best when last seen 7 months ago but she had a positive 2022 overall and could get back on track on seasonal debut. Berry Edge is a danger dropping back in grade and My Macho Man is worthy of interest returning to this sphere after a spell over hurdles.

16:40 Ayr Handicap (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

1st: 4.5/1 (3) LILIKOI 2nd: 3.33/1 (1) JUDGMENT CALL 3rd: 5.5/1 (5) NOVAK

All three of CLASSY AL's career wins have come at this track and this looks like another ideal opportunity returning from a 210-day break. Conditions look to be in his favour and he is narrowly preferred to the consistent Novak and Judgment Call, who ran a fine race on his return at Musselburgh last month and he is entitled to improve for that reappearance.

ROGUE FORCE acquitted himself well at Kempton last time and figures off a handy mark on debut for new connections here. He gets the nod. Classy Al and Novak rate the principal dangers.

The suggestion is LILIKOI, won began the year in good form on the AW and has a capable 7lb claimer enlisted for her turf return.
