Pop Star

2.75
11/4(+0%)
(2) Pop Star 11/4, Won 9-runner handicap at this course (6f, good to firm, 9/1) 15 days ago, edging ahead inside final 1f having not looked entirely straight forward. Nudged up only 2 lb so possibilities again.
Prevailed narrowly here two weeks ago; can remain competitive back up just 2lb.

Woobay

10/1(-67%)
(4) Woobay 10/1, Sixth of 9 in handicap (11/2) at Catterick (6f, good to soft) 19 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Has good chance on pick of form.
Form under Pippa Brown includes a close second in this race last year; shortlisted.

(3) Huddle Up 7/2, Unreliable individual. Fifteen runs since last win in 2021. Seventh of 11 in handicap at Hamilton (5f, good to firm, 3/1) 31 days ago. Capable of playing a part from this sort of mark if he can put it all together.
Went close under Alice Keighley at Carlisle in May; respected on that effort.

(7) Saaheq 11/1, Veteran. Twelve runs since last win in 2023. 14/1, respectable third of 10 in handicap at Ripon (5f, good to firm) 32 days ago, not ideally placed. Looks competitive on form.
Veteran; ran encouragingly last time but it's three years since last turf win.

Rory

4/1(+27%)
(5) Rory 4/1, Quirky sort who ran well when runner-up in pair of starts at up to 7f here and shaped as if still in good form when seventh of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (5f, 11/2) 9 days ago, finishing with running left. Another capable of going close if things drop right.
Placed at Ayr in both turf attempts this term; ties in with Pop Star.

6th (1) Count D'orsay (28/1 -300%)
Count D'orsay

28
28/1(-300%)
(1) Count D'orsay 28/1, Losing run is mounting up but he ran best race of the season when second at Hamilton (5f) on his penultimate start. Latest Chester run easily overlooked (trapped wide) and bounce back likely dropped back down in class.
On a 17-race losing sequence but has possibilities off current mark.

(8) Henery Hawk 100/1, 8½ lengths eighth of 9 to Pop Star in handicap at this course (6f, good to firm, 66/1) 15 days ago. Needs to show more before becoming of interest.
Four-time AW scorer; 0-14 on turf; not the percentage call.

Borough

28
28/1(-75%)
(6) Borough 28/1, Registered pair of 5f victories last summer. However, he failed to beat a rival in pair of starts in June since returning from 9 months off.
Big doubt over current form, having finished last in both runs this term.

14:30 Ayr Handicap (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

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

This can go the way of RORY, who was unlucky when not getting the clearest of runs inside the final furlong when looking to challenge over this distance at Newcastle recently. Jim Goldie's charge is taken to overturn form with Pop Star (first) from their meeting here the time before, with the six-year-old 2lb better off for finishing half-a-length behind in third. Huddle Up and Woobay are capable of being in the shake-up as well.

A tricky amateur riders' handicap to assess with the narrow vote in favour of RORY. He's been shaping as though ready to strike in recent weeks, and having not been seen to best effect at Newcastle on his latest outing, he could well provide his stable with a third consecutive success in this race. Huddle Up, Count d'Orsay and recent C&D winner Pop Star are others to consider.

A chance is taken on HUDDLE UP with Alice Keighley back on board. Second choice is Woobay.

(4) Stratusnine 6/4, Still showed greenness when second of 12 in minor event (8/11) at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) 26 days ago, not having the knowhow to put the race to bed once hitting the front. Remains with potential and fancied to go a place better than both previous outings.
Plenty of promise when runner-up on both outings and holds leading form claims.

(2) Intrusively 11/4, Ran to a similar level as on debut when third of 8 in maiden at Haydock (7f, firm, 4/5) just over 2 weeks ago. Firmly in the mix.
Has gone close on both starts and he's a key player this afternoon.

(6) Ann Terry 50/1, Foaled February 25. £39,000 yearling, £75,000 2-y-o, Mohaather filly. Half-sister to several winners, including useful 6f winner Expert Agent and 2-y-o 6f winner Al Rasmah. Dam winner up to 7f (2-y-o 6f winner), third in Oaks d'Italia. Respected debutante.
£75,000 2yo (April breeze-ups); half-sister to five winners; something to like on paper.

(5) Tarlac 25/1, Made an unpromising start to his career when tenth of 11 in minor event (18/1) at York (6f, good) on debut 52 days ago. Will need to leave that effort well behind.
Well beaten on debut at York but there's potential in pedigree; may take big step forward.

15:00 Ayr Maiden (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

STRATUSNINE couldn't get the job done when a short-priced favourite at Salisbury last month, but he still ran with plenty of credit in defeat and this appeals as an ideal opportunity to get off the mark. Not beaten far when travelling well over 7f at Haydock, Intrusively should appreciate the drop back in trip, while Helaali looks to be the pick of the newcomers for the in-form Alice Haynes stable.

STRATUSNINE has found just one too good on both starts in big-field novices so far and, with further improvement on the cards, Hugo Palmer's colt is fancied to make it third time lucky at the expense of Intrusively, who should also have plenty more to offer for his in-form yard. Ann Terry makes most appeal of the newcomers so she completes the shortlist.

Having been a close second on both starts, STRATUSNINE is taken to get off the mark. Debutant Helaali could be the chief threat.

(1) Coconut Bay 12/1, Modest mare. 7/2, bit below form third of 11 in minor event at this course (7.2f, good to firm) 15 days ago, faring best of those ridden prominently. Has to be taken seriously.

15:35 Ayr Stakes (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

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

None can match the recent consistency of COCONUT BAY entering this contest, and he may have travelled too strongly for his own good when third over 7f here last month. Going back up to a mile should help him settle, and the five-year-old gets the vote ahead of Big Blue Boy (fifth), who has half-a-length to find from that contest, as well as Haalim, who has strong claims on his penultimate second at Wolverhampton.

COCONUT BAY did well under the circumstances returned to turf when third in a similar event here 2 weeks ago and should go well again. Big Blue Boy and Amazing Winnie are others to consider.

AW winner COCONUT BAY was a good third here a fortnight ago and is taken to break her duck on turf. Big Blue Boy is feared most.

(8) Cavallo Pazzo 22/1, Below form eleventh of 22 in handicap at the Curragh (7f) 8 months ago on his final run for Joseph O'Brien. A fair 7f winner but he needs to hit the ground running for his new handler.

16:10 Ayr Handicap (Class 3) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

DIAMONDONTHEHILL was back to winning ways at Thirsk last time when dead-heating with Yorkshire, and another bold showing looks assured here off just 2lb higher. That is not to underestimate any of the opposition in this competitive handicap, where the top two on the racecard, Regheeb and Nikovo, help set a decent standard. Titan Rock is also surely better than his latest run at York last time out and can figure with a revival.

ELIM didn't enjoy the rub of the green when sixth in a big-field Royal Ascot handicap last time and can confirm herself handily weighted by resuming winning ways. Thirsk-scorer Diamondonthehill could emerge as the chief threat to Ed Bethell's low-mileage 4-y-o, with C&D scorer Nikovo appealing as the pick of the remainder for minor honours.

The progressive 4yo LITTLE EMPIRE was sufficiently dominant over C&D last month to suggest this 11lb higher mark may not be beyond him.

16:45 Ayr Handicap (Class 4) 10f Race Class Flow

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

BORN RULER was conceding 9lb when he was a half-length second to Pol Roger over this course and distance in May and is an attractive proposition to turn that form around with a 5lb pull this time. The hat-trick seeking Own Accord also commands respect despite this being her first attempt beyond a mile, whereas Alpine Sierra boast plenty of course experience and appeals for a place with a first-time hood added.

OWN ACCORD is a filly going the right way and can make light of a 5 lb rise for Wetherby now stepping up to 1¼m. Pol Roger has made an excellent start to the season and is second choice ahead of Born Ruler.

3yos have won the last six runnings but the unexposed 4yo OWN ACCORD can buck that trend. Pol Roger is a big danger.

17:20 Ayr Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

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

BRAES OF DOUNE tends to go well at this venue and, having breezed to success in this race last year, the Jim Goldie-trained gelding is a strong contender for back-to-back wins off just 5lb higher. Fellow C&D winner Visitant is well handicapped on old form and the admirable veteran, who posted a near miss over 1m6f at Redcar last month, also rates a key player back at this trip. Carvalhal completes the shortlist.

The step back up in trip looks sure to suit BRAES OF DOUNE and he makes plenty of appeal here. Carvalhal and Mr Boson can also make their prsence felt.

Most of these have something to prove whereas last year's winner BRAES OF DOUNE (nap) was a good second over 1m here in May last time.

About U.K Horse Racing

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

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

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

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

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

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