---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (7) (1.25/1 +29%) Rare Jewel |
1.25/1(+29%) | (7) Rare Jewel 1.25/1, Exceed And Excel filly who went powerfully to halfway pitched into listed company when seventh at Newmarket (6f) on debut 47 days ago, shuffled back over 2f out but not knocked about. Feasible to think she could take a sizeable step forward. Took keen hold before weakening on Newmarket Listed debut; sights are lowered considerably. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (7/1 +36%) Bint Alfella |
7/1(+36%) | (3) Bint Alfella 7/1, Foaled March 9. Too Darn Hot filly. Half-sister to 1m winner Marhaba Ashmayme and 6f winner Speed To Run. Dam 2-y-o 6f-1m winner. Market should prove a useful guide on debut. Third foal of 6f-1m juvenile winner (including Italian Group 3; RPR 102); consult market.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (11/1 -29%) Keldeo |
11/1(-29%) | (2) Keldeo 11/1, Never figured on debut at Catterick (5f) last month but proved a different proposition when landing 10-runner C&D novice 16 days ago, keeping on well. Likely she'll need to pull out more under a penalty here, though. Stepped forward to spring a 33-1 surprise over C&D (good to soft) a fortnight ago; chance.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (4.5/1 -50%) Go Big Or Go Home |
4.5/1(-50%) | (5) Go Big Or Go Home 4.5/1, Foaled February 13. 1,800,000 gns yearling, Lope De Vega filly. Half-sister to top-class sprinter Battaash and smart 2-y-o 5f/6f winner The Antarctic. Makes obvious appeal on paper and yard no stranger to success with juveniles. Plenty to like. 1,800,000gns yearling; half-sister to top-class sprinter Battaash; interesting newcomer.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (3.33/1 -11%) Princess Alex |
3.33/1(-11%) | (1) Princess Alex 3.33/1, Dark Angel filly who went backwards from debut when well held at Haydock (6f) in July but quickly back on the up when running out a ready winner of a Pontefract maiden (5f) 18 days ago, beating a subsequent winner. Player again with experience counting for a good deal. Off the mark at Pontefract (5f; form franked); penalised but merits respect.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (18/1 -64%) Blue Eyed Kate |
18/1(-64%) | (4) Blue Eyed Kate 18/1, Blue Point filly who showed ability when midfield in 11-runner Haydock maiden (6f) on debut last month but she proved too free when finishing last of 10 upped to 7f at Newbury next time. Drops back to the minimum trip now. Respectable debut (6f); pulled too hard at Newbury (7f; soft) since; first attempt over 5f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (200/1 -100%) Inns Of York |
200/1(-100%) | (6) Inns Of York 200/1, Inns Of Court half sister to yard's smart sprinter Acklam Express. Big prices and offered little both starts in C&D novice events to date. May be one for nurseries in due course. Soundly beaten over C&D both starts (varying ground); safe to look elsewhere.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Kevin Ryan boasts a fine record in this contest, having won this with some smart types including Glass Slippers (2018), so any market support for Bint Alfella ahead of her debut would make her of significant interest. That said, GO BIG OR GO HOME, a 1,800,000gns purchase at Tattersalls Book 1 last October, is a half-sister to star sprinter Battaash and makes plenty of appeal. Princess Alex and recent C&D winner Keldeo are both capable of serving it up to the newcomers, despite the pair giving weight to their rivals.
RARE JEWEL ultimately never figured in a listed race first time up at Newmarket 47 days ago, but she travelled with plenty of purpose for a long way and, the type to take a marked step forward from that, she could be worth siding with. Easy Pontefract winner Princess Alex and Go Big Or Go Home, a half sister to the top-class Battaash, can emerge as the chief threats.
Newcomer GO BIG OR GO HOME went through the ring for 1.8 million guineas initially as a yearling and is half-sister to mighty Battaash.

1st (6) (3.5/1 +50%) Macarone |
3.5/1(+50%) | (6) Macarone 3.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 11/2, very good second of 7 in nursery at Bath (5f, good) 29 days ago, effort 2f out and keeping on. Claims with a repeat. Second to progressive winner on nursery debut at Bath and he's a solid contender. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (3/1 +25%) Charlie Mason |
3/1(+25%) | (3) Charlie Mason 3/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Respectable third of 10 in nursery (7/4) at Ffos Las (6f, heavy) 17 days ago, keeping on when hanging left final 1f. Fitting of a visor could well help now and no surprise to see him thereabouts. Third in both nurseries and could be sharper in the first-time visor; he's a possible. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (11) (8.5/1 -89%) Zaphea |
8.5/1(-89%) | (11) Zaphea 8.5/1, No match for a pair of improvers at Musselburgh (5f) 2 starts back but she arrives having run her best race to date when second of 9 in nursery at Bath (5f) 8 days ago, travelling best but not match for the winner. Player for all widest draw not ideal. Good second in Bath nursery last Wednesday and leading claims if reproducing that form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (12/1 -20%) Space Ninja |
12/1(-20%) | (4) Space Ninja 12/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Ninth of 12 in minor event at Thirsk (6f, good to soft, 66/1) 20 days ago. Needs to find some improvement now handicapping but he cost plenty as a yearling and worth noting if the market speaks in his favour. Down the field on first three starts but this £160,000 yearling is a possible improver. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (12) (25/1 -79%) Swiftly |
25/1(-79%) | (12) Swiftly 25/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 12/1, seventh of 10 in nursery at Doncaster (6f, heavy) 12 days ago, threatening over 2f out and weakening. Cheekpieces on for 1st time returned to the minimum trip and not one to write off just yet. Soundly beaten on all four starts (nursery debut last time) but could be capable of better. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (16/1 -60%) Damia |
16/1(-60%) | (5) Damia 16/1, Territories filly. 9/1, dispelled a lesser effort on yard debut when fourth of 5 in nursery at Leicester (5f, soft) 15 days ago, headed around 2f out and fading. Eased 3 lb since but more needed if she's to open her account here. Down in grade and back on better ground on second nursery start; not ruled out. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (8/1 -14%) Carnaby Princess |
8/1(-14%) | (9) Carnaby Princess 8/1, Showed some ability in novice/maiden company and shaped better than previously when fourth of 10 in nursery at Doncaster (6f, heavy) 12 days ago, her effort flattening out having briefly looked a threat. Eased 2 lb ahead of this and no forlorn hope. Fair fourth over 6f on nursery debut and this first crack at 5f is worth a go; chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (1) (5/1 +55%) Sergeant Mayer |
5/1(+55%) | (1) Sergeant Mayer 5/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Sixth of 12 in minor event (200/1) at Thirsk (6f, good to soft) 20 days ago, plugging on without threatening. Makes handicap debut. Not obviously well treated for nursery debut but open to improvement; watch the betting. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (8) (9/1 +36%) Naval Flight |
9/1(+36%) | (8) Naval Flight 9/1, Showed more than previously switched to positive tactics when third in a C&D claimer in May but proved disappointing both starts in nurseries more recently. Third in C&D claimer in May but well beaten elsewhere in her first two nurseries. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (13) (20/1 -25%) Master Eli |
20/1(-25%) | (13) Master Eli 20/1, Eqtidaar colt who showed more than previously when sixth on qualifying run in a Thirsk novice (6f) in July. However, proved disappointing (in first-time cheekpieces) when eighth of 9 on nursery debut at Nottingham (6.1f) 30 days ago. Well beaten on nursery debut but the drop to 5f & return to better ground could bear fruit. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (7) (28/1 -40%) Regal Solitaire |
28/1(-40%) | (7) Regal Solitaire 28/1, Unreliable type. Seventh of 9 in minor event at Newcastle (6f, 66/1) 14 days ago, pulling way to the front after 2f and fading. Others preferred making handicap debut. The drop back to 5f could be a plus on nursery debut; might be in the mix. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (10) (40/1 +0%) Riverview Law |
40/1(+0%) | (10) Riverview Law 40/1, Showed ability when second in 5-runner maiden on debut at Hamilton (5f) in June but failed to match that level in 3 subsequent outings, last of 9 in nursery at Musselburgh (5f) 23 days ago. Good deal to prove at present. Form has gone wrong way since promising debut and she was well beaten in her first nursery. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (15) (80/1 -142%) Ifonlytheycudtalk |
80/1(-142%) | (15) Ifonlytheycudtalk 80/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Blinkered for 1st time, again offered little when last of 9 on nursery debut at Pontefract (6f, good to soft) 37 days ago, carrying head awkwardly and soon beaten. Can only be watched. Beaten a long way at big odds on first three starts and same story on nursery debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
ZAPHEA produced her best effort to date when runner-up at Bath last week and the filly may well take advantage on this occasion, with the handicapper having dropped her 3lb prior to her latest run. The daughter of Dandy Man was reassessed following that most recent display and was put back on 55, so this may prove to be the ideal opportunity. Macarone filled the runner-up spot on his nursery debut at Bath and is entitled to progress further, while a first-time visor might aid the cause of Charlie Mason.
ZAPHEA has a wider draw than ideal to contend with but she produced her best effort yet when runner-up at Bath 8 days ago and, eased in the weights subsequently, she could be the answer with her rider also taking off a handy 7 lb. Charlie Mason looks the type to benefit from headgear, so he's feared equipped with a first-time visor. Macarone and Carnaby Princess are others fancied to be thereabouts.
The drop to 5f, the better ground and a low draw could all be positives for MASTER ELI and he earns the vote ahead of Space Ninja.

1st (1) (2.5/1 +58%) Doubletalk |
2.5/1(+58%) | (1) Doubletalk 2.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Good second at Pontefract on penultimate outing and was drawn on wrong side of track when eighth of 9 in nursery at Thirsk (6f, good to soft) 20 days ago. Back up in trip. Respected. Ran well on nursery debut; poorly drawn latest; should stay; contender back in Class 6. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (8.5/1 +29%) Whatwouldiknow |
8.5/1(+29%) | (5) Whatwouldiknow 8.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 8/1, creditable sixth of 10 in nursery at Doncaster (6f, heavy) 12 days ago, needing stiffer test. Should improve over this longer trip. Never dangerous over 6f on nursery debut but left the impression this trip would suit. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (6.5/1 +59%) Loubiere |
6.5/1(+59%) | (8) Loubiere 6.5/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 40/1, fourth of 8 in minor event at Ripon (6f, good to firm) 38 days ago. Back up in trip. Makes handicap debut. Needs more. Possible improver now handicapping over further but such progress is a requirement. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (12/1 +14%) Seahorse Syd |
12/1(+14%) | (7) Seahorse Syd 12/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 150/1, eleventh of 12 in maiden at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) 35 days ago. Up in trip. Blinkers on 1st time. Has been gelded since latest outing but faces uphill task on handicap debut. Modest form in three sprints; gelded since latest; new trip/headgear could help matters. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (3.5/1 -56%) Brandaisy |
3.5/1(-56%) | (3) Brandaisy 3.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 33/1, very good second of 7 in nursery at Haydock (7f, heavy) 11 days ago, nearest finish. May do better still and is expected to be bang there. Big step forward when 2nd on recent nursery debut (7f, heavy); 4lb well in; obvious chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (10) (80/1 -300%) Patasola |
80/1(-300%) | (10) Patasola 80/1, Creditable fourth at Nottingham on penultimate outing but wasn't in the same form when filling the same position in a 6-runner nursery at Pontefract (6f, good) 27 days ago. Back up in trip. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Others more persuasive. Not progressing for current stable and stamina has to be taken on trust; headgear added. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (14/1 -40%) Peaceful Protest |
14/1(-40%) | (4) Peaceful Protest 14/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 33/1, ninth of 12 in minor event at Pontefract (6f, good) 27 days ago. Back up in trip. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Hasn't been progressing but may do better now in handicaps. Likely improver now handicapping in headgear; widest draw is not ideal. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (7.5/1 +25%) Surface To Air |
7.5/1(+25%) | (2) Surface To Air 7.5/1, Creditable fourth of 11 in maiden at Chepstow (6.1f, good to soft, 20/1) 20 days ago. Up in trip. Visor back on. Makes handicap debut. More exposed than most but stepping up in trip could give him a lift; each-way shout. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (13) (18/1 -64%) Rockinthefreeworld |
18/1(-64%) | (13) Rockinthefreeworld 18/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 14/1, sixth of 10 in nursery at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) 22 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Little impact to date and others make more appeal. Modest form in five starts; stiffer test and new headgear need to transform him. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (6) (20/1 -100%) Stamper |
20/1(-100%) | (6) Stamper 20/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Blinkered for 1st time, eighth of 14 in seller at York (6f, good to firm, 14/1) 62 days ago, slowly away. Up in trip. Yet to progress from debut and others are preferred. Promise on first two starts; clear encouragement on pedigree for this new trip; respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (12) (14/1 -75%) Bellestarr |
14/1(-75%) | (12) Bellestarr 14/1, Improved when third of 9 in nursery at this C&D (good to soft) 30 days ago. Can go well. Improved effort when 3rd over C&D latest; place claims if coping with the quicker ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (11) (80/1 -220%) Nana's Ancestors |
80/1(-220%) | (11) Nana's Ancestors 80/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 150/1, last of 6 in maiden at Ayr (5f, good) 24 days ago, slowly away. Significantly up in trip. Tricky to fancy on handicap debut. Finished last in three 5f runs; this is more suitable but yard is not prolific with 2yos. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
BRANDAISY stepped forward from her first three starts when runner-up at Haydock on nursery debut earlier in the month, having benefited from going up in trip, and Richard Fahey's filly is likely to be suited by the nature of this track. Doubletalk is best judged on her second at Pontefract on her penultimate start, while Bellestarr completes the shortlist following her C&D third.
BRANDAISY was easy to back but improved plenty on her nursery bow at Haydock and better still can be expected, so she's a confident selection ahead of the lightly-weighted Bellestarr, who also took a step forward for the switch to this company last time. Doubletalk's Thirsk run is easily excused and she also rates as a player on her previous Pontefract effort.
She's back on forecast quicker ground but BRANDAISY (nap) ran well for second in a stronger race on her recent nursery debut.

1st (2) (3.2/1 +9%) Soul Seeker |
3.2/1(+9%) | (2) Soul Seeker 3.2/1, Took advantage of a career-low mark at York in July and continued in good heart when second of 5 in handicap at Newmarket (5f, soft, 2/1) 12 days ago. Can make his present felt once more. Consistent; 6lb higher than when winning the jump jockeys' Nunthorpe at York last month.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (33/1 -65%) Crypto Quest |
33/1(-65%) | (5) Crypto Quest 33/1, Made a successful stable debut at Doncaster (6f) in June. However, last of 13 in handicap (14/1) at the same C&D (good to firm) 48 days ago. Others more persuasive. Made all at Doncaster (6f, good; stable debut) in June; very disappointing last time.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (13) (7/1 +36%) Aconcagua Mountain |
7/1(+36%) | (13) Aconcagua Mountain 7/1, Best effort of the season when third of 10 in handicap at Ayr (5f, good, 11/2) 5 days ago, no extra only late on. Task is now to build on that. Closely matched with Texas Man; gave another good account at Ayr (third) on Saturday. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (12) (9/1 +18%) John Kirkup |
9/1(+18%) | (12) John Kirkup 9/1, Twenty-four runs since last win in 2022. 7/2, shaped better than result when fifth of 10 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good to soft) 13 days ago, short of room from 2f out. Can give his running again. No win since May 2022; running adequately (often placed) but others are more persuasive.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (11) (11/1 -10%) Sherdil |
11/1(-10%) | (11) Sherdil 11/1, Dual C&D winner last summer. However, down the field last 2 starts, eighth of 9 in handicap (10/1) back at this C&D (soft) 16 days ago. Has dropped further in the weights, though, and return to firmer ground should suit. Back to a workable mark and goes well at Beverley, where he has formfigures of 11258. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (9) (9/1 +18%) Stone Of Destiny |
9/1(+18%) | (9) Stone Of Destiny 9/1, Having shaped well on his penultimate outing, not in the same form when last of 7 in handicap at Doncaster (5f, soft, 7/2) 26 days ago. Has fallen further in the weights, but it's now 33 runs since last win in 2020. Continues to prove frustrating; many chances since winning the Portland in September 2020.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (10/1 +29%) The Dunkirk Lads |
10/1(+29%) | (6) The Dunkirk Lads 10/1, C&D winner in April. 9/1, below form when last of 8 in handicap at Pontefract (5f, good) 8 days ago, slowly away. Capable if he's on a going day returned to this venue. Has gone well at Beverley and little to find with King of Tonga two runs back; chance.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (9/1 -38%) Texas Man |
9/1(-38%) | (8) Texas Man 9/1, Making third start for his current yard, bounced back to form when winning 10-runner handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good, 8/1) 23 days ago. Remains well treated on old form so he's one to consider. Took advantage of falling mark when resuming winning ways at Musselburgh (5f); 2lb higher.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (4) (4.5/1 +10%) King Of Tonga |
4.5/1(+10%) | (4) King Of Tonga 4.5/1, Again ran well when second of 8 in handicap at Pontefract (5f, good, 11/4) 8 days ago. On a workable mark and he could be ready to get back to winning ways. Runner-up on both starts since wind surgery, including over C&D (penultimate); 1lb higher.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (3) (16/1 +0%) Sun Power |
16/1(+0%) | (3) Sun Power 16/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2021. Operating below best at present, eighth of 17 in handicap at York (7f, good, 33/1) 20 days ago. Back down in trip with visor on 1st time. Yet to win on turf (0-16) and continues to ease in weights; visor newly applied back at 5f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (1) (22/1 -100%) Resilience |
22/1(-100%) | (1) Resilience 22/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 17/2, failed to return to form when fifth of 9 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good to soft) 13 days ago. However, he lurks on a dangerous mark as he drops in grade. Runner-up at Musselburgh (5f, good) last month; contested a Class 3 back there last time.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (7) (16/1 +0%) Indian Sounds |
16/1(+0%) | (7) Indian Sounds 16/1, C&D winner who made it back-to-back victories when scoring at Ripon in June. However, run of good form halted when last of 14 in handicap (16/1) at this C&D (good to firm) 41 days ago. Back-to-back wins (Pontefract & Ripon; 5f-6f) prior to a valid excuse over C&D last time.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (10) (50/1 -150%) Dandy Spirit |
50/1(-150%) | (10) Dandy Spirit 50/1, Latest win at Nottingham in May. Back down in trip, below form when eighth of 9 in handicap at Catterick (5f, good, 9/1) 29 days ago. Needs to get back on track. Won in blinkers at Wetherby (5.5f) & Nottingham (6f) early in season; running okay lately.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
This could go the way of ACONCAGUA MOUNTAIN, who has been running to a decent level of late. Iain Jardine's charge seems to be operating off a winnable mark and that may be enough to see off the likes of Soul Seeker and King Of Tonga, who has been runner-up on his last two starts. John Kirkup and Texas Man can also have a say in proceedings.
Having had a breathing operation, KING OF TONGA has returned to form with a pair of runner-up efforts on his last 2 starts and he is taken to go one better this time around. Soul Seeker has also been in good heart and isn't taken lightly, while Texas Man resumed winning ways last time and remains well treated on old form.
Plenty to consider with Texas Man and King Of Tonga shortlisted. A marginal preference is for the lowly drawn THE DUNKIRK LADS.

1st (7) (1.38/1 +21%) Trooper Bisdee |
1.38/1(+21%) | (7) Trooper Bisdee 1.38/1, 2 wins from 4 runs this year. Latest win at Bath in July. 9/4, possibly unsuited by conditions when below form third of 7 in handicap at Leicester (11.8f, soft) 22 days ago, headed 3f out and soon beaten. Better showing anticipated returned to this faster surface. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (5.5/1 +35%) Hellenista |
5.5/1(+35%) | (3) Hellenista 5.5/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Not at best when fourth of 8 in handicap at Catterick (15.9f, good, 16/5) 9 days ago, no extra under 2f out. Operating on a handy mark if putting it all together. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (9) (50/1 -127%) Spiced Rum |
50/1(-127%) | (9) Spiced Rum 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Easy to back and failed to improve when seventh of 9 on handicap debut at Newcastle (12.4f, 22/1) 14 days ago. More needed if she's to figure up further in trip. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (12/1 -33%) Fox Flame |
12/1(-33%) | (6) Fox Flame 12/1, 3-y-o filly who opened her account at Wolverhampton (12.2f) in April. Best efforts since gained on AW, creditable fourth of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (12.4f) 2 weeks ago. Visor replaces blinkers back on turf/up in trip. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (22/1 -57%) Dragonball Prince |
22/1(-57%) | (8) Dragonball Prince 22/1, Maiden who has essentially yet to fire this campaign, turning in a lacklustre display in first-time cheekpieces (retained here) when last of 6 in handicap at Catterick (12.1f) 3 weeks ago. Up significantly in trip now. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (2/1 +20%) Cold Henry |
2/1(+20%) | (2) Cold Henry 2/1, Ended last term with back-to-back victories in handicaps at Catterick (15.8f) and made the frame all 4 starts in staying contests this campaign, not seen to best effect when third back at Catterick latest. Remains on a handy mark and he's one to be interested in. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (22/1 +12%) Infiniti |
22/1(+12%) | (4) Infiniti 22/1, Hurdles/5-time Flat winner in 2022 but yet to fire under either code so far this year. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (5) (40/1 -264%) Shadowfax |
40/1(-264%) | (5) Shadowfax 40/1, Fair maiden who was strong in the betting but disappointed allowed the run of things when fourth at Nottingham (14f) in June. Visor (retained here) failed to have desired effect when last of 9 at Bath (11.6f) 3 weeks ago and bit to prove for all his mark is easing. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (1) (18/1 -29%) Oasis Prince |
18/1(-29%) | (1) Oasis Prince 18/1, Course winner. Eighth of 10 in handicap at Thirsk (12f, heavy, 18/1) 12 days ago, left behind over 2f out. First-time visor needs to have positive effect stepping back up in trip. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Runner-up on two of his last three starts, COLD HENRY is proven over this marathon trip and sets the standard on form. Both of his wins to date have come under Joanna Mason, who is back on board today, and the fact he can be relied upon to run his race is more than what can be said of the inconsistent but talented Trooper Bisdee. Fox Flame has the potential to be well suited by going up in trip, while Hellenista has shown glimpses of form so far this season.
A dual winner at Catterick last year (under today's rider), COLD HENRY has run with credit all 4 starts so far this term and, appealing as still being on a good mark, he's expected to make a bold bid. Trooper Bisdee, representing the stable who took this race 12 months ago, had soft ground as an excuse last time and he's a big threat. Hellenista may do best of the remainder.
A chance is taken that the feasibly handicapped HELLENISTA can rediscover her peak form from what is a favourable mark.

1st (9) (4/1 +0%) Eagle Eyed Tom |
4/1(+0%) | (9) Eagle Eyed Tom 4/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Best effort yet despite again being held back by inexperience when third of 9 in handicap (7/1) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 13 days ago, wandering and headed last ½f. May do better still. Unexposed 3yo who ran well at Wolverhampton latest; more to come; yard does well here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (3/1 +63%) She's Got Bottle |
3/1(+63%) | (5) She's Got Bottle 3/1, Dual course winner who resumed winning ways at Pontefract (1m) in May and bounced back to best when 2 lengths third of 11 in amateur riders' handicap here (10f) at the start of the month. Expected to give another good account. Fast ground is a query but she goes well here and is not on a bad mark; in the mix. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (4.5/1 +50%) Strangerontheshore |
4.5/1(+50%) | (3) Strangerontheshore 4.5/1, Dual C&D winner who got the better of re-opposing Temper Trap when landing this race from 1 lb higher mark 12 months ago. Exploits have been rather mixed in recent months but she's certainly not ruled out returned to this venue. Beat Temper Trap to win this race last year; one of the most likely options. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (3.5/1 -56%) Temper Trap |
3.5/1(-56%) | (2) Temper Trap 3.5/1, Thrived around this time last year and comes here in a similar vein, defying a penalty with ease and completing a quick-fire hat-trick to boot at Ripon (1m) 9 days ago. Just 1 lb higher here and big shout once more. On a roll but that was also the case when beaten in this race on good to firm last year. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (10/1 -25%) Kodebreaker |
10/1(-25%) | (8) Kodebreaker 10/1, Successful twice on AW since the turn of the year and consistency hard to knock since, just touched off over 1m at Leicester on penultimate start. Not in same form back on softer ground latest and no surprise to see a better showing. Rare moderate effort last time; contender if returning to this season's best turf form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (10) (12/1 +0%) Leading Company |
12/1(+0%) | (10) Leading Company 12/1, Dual course winner as a juvenile. 9/1, last of 10 in handicap at Doncaster (8f, good to firm) 35 days ago. Blinkers back on (all 3 career victories gained in them) and the handicapper has afforded him a chance. Two course wins last year; mixed record in 2023 but the return to Beverley looks a plus. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (22/1 +21%) Panama City |
22/1(+21%) | (4) Panama City 22/1, Course winner who took a step back in right direction on second start for new yard when fifth of 10 in handicap at this course (7.4f) 16 days ago, ridden 2f out and plugging on. Comes here operating from career-low mark if he can build on that back up in trip. Course winner; seemed to run better on second start for stable latest; stamina not assured. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (14/1 +0%) Martin's Brig |
14/1(+0%) | (7) Martin's Brig 14/1, Suited by strong pace and looked unlucky not to win when runner-up at Redcar (1m) in May. Below best when eighth of 9 in handicap back at that venue in June and given a break since. Steps back up in trip now. Below par last time but he's a contender on this year's best turf efforts. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (6) (33/1 -32%) Zumurud |
33/1(-32%) | (6) Zumurud 33/1, 10/1, eighth of 10 in handicap at Ripon (8f, good) 38 days ago, always behind. Now operating below last winning mark but others make greater appeal at present. Yet to get going this year and others come here with more pressing claims. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
A switch to better ground may not be ideal for TEMPER TRAP, but the six-year-old can do little wrong at present and he may well be able to overcome it. Tim Easterby's charge arrives here on a four-timer and he gets the vote ahead of the relatively consistent She's Got Bottle and Eagle Eyed Tom, who ran with plenty of credit on his handicap debut at Wolverhampton.
TEMPER TRAP thrived this time last year and is doing the same again, readily completing a quick-fire hat-trick at Ripon 9 days ago. He looks sure to make a bold bid for the 4-timer, with the sole 3-y-o in the line-up Eagle Eyed Tom, dual course winner Leading Company and last year's winner Strangerontheshore heading up the dangers.
History can repeat itself 12 months on with STRANGERONTHESHORE taken to get the better of a thriving Temper Trap once again.
Ths is the racecard key.

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.
