---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (4) (9/1 +18%) Due For Luck |
9/1(+18%) | (4) Due For Luck 9/1, Foaled March 14. €30,000 yearling, Due Diligence gelding. Half-brother to 6f winner Kebek Khan. Dam lightly-raced half-sister to smart winner up to 6f Lesson In Humility. Worth monitoring in the betting for clues ahead of debut. 30,000euros; 5th foal; half-brother to Italian 6f winner Kebek Khan; dam placed 5f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (9) (7/1 -100%) Chumbaa |
7/1(-100%) | (9) Chumbaa 7/1, Fair filly who produced best effort to date when runner-up in 5-runner Hamilton novice (6f) on penultimate start. Probably overdid things from the front when fifth over 5.8f here 9 days ago but return to the minimum trip will suit. Cheekpieces go on. The best of her form is up there but looking exposed after seven defeats; gets cheekpieces. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (14/1 +13%) Keep Warm |
14/1(+13%) | (7) Keep Warm 14/1, Lightning Spear half-brother to 2-y-o 5f winner Beechwood Donna. Hinted at ability on debut at Ripon and took a step forward when fifth of 9 in novice event here (5.8f) 4 weeks ago. Probably one for nurseries moving forward. Probably one for handicaps but dangerous to entirely dismiss after latest effort. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (20/1 +39%) Macarone |
20/1(+39%) | (6) Macarone 20/1, £32,000 yearling, Havana Grey colt. 14/1, well held tenth of 14 in maiden at Thirsk (6f, good) on debut 23 days ago, weakening under 2f out. Needs to step up a good deal if he's to figure here. Weakened out of it at Thirsk (6f, good to firm; 14-1) and was beaten 15l in the end. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (1/1 +47%) All Is Fair |
1/1(+47%) | (1) All Is Fair 1/1, Soldier's Call colt who was getting the hang of things late on and ultimately shaped with promise when third in a Haydock novice (5f) 2 weeks ago, staying on final 1f. Likely to improve and a big player here. Slowly away, lost a shoe and looked green when third at Haydock; respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (3.33/1 -21%) Lochaber |
3.33/1(-21%) | (5) Lochaber 3.33/1, Son of Havana Grey who did better with debut under his belt when fourth of 11 in novice event at Thirsk (5f) in May, leading until 1f out and no extra final 50 yds. Gelded subsequently and no surprise to see him progress. One to consider. Gelded since an improved second run and should make his presence felt. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (8) (28/1 -180%) Stash The Cash |
28/1(-180%) | (8) Stash The Cash 28/1, Foaled February 15. €5,500 foal, €9,500 yearling, Profitable gelding. Half-brother to winner up to 6f Iur Cinn Tra. Dam, ran twice, out of unraced half-sister to smart 1¼m-15f winner Shemima. 9,500euros yearling; 2nd foal; half-brother to 5f/6f winner Iur Cinn Tra (inc 2yo; RPR 77). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (3) (66/1 -65%) Dc Flyer |
66/1(-65%) | (3) Dc Flyer 66/1, Displayed only greenness when last of 9 on debut at Pontefract in May. Gelded after and shaped as if still in need of the experience when fifth in 8-runner Hamilton novice (5f) 7 days ago. Another who will be better suited to nurseries. Better last time but one formline suggests that Lochaber should have his measure. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (2) (16/1 +60%) Be Here Now |
16/1(+60%) | (2) Be Here Now 16/1, Oasis Dream gelding. Dam, 2-y-o 1m winner. Better for debut without threatening when sixth in 7-runner York maiden (6f) 11 days ago and a likely type for nurseries in due course. Others have achieved more and he'll earn a mark after this. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
All Is Fair showed inexperience on debut at Haydock but clearly has ability judging on his third-placed effort. He should step forward but preference is for LOCHABER, who had to settle for fourth when sent off favourite at Thirsk, stumbling near the finish. He has been gelded since that effort, which could bring about the necessary improvement needed to strike. Any market support for 30,000-euro purchase Due For Luck should be noted.
ALL IS FAIR was clearly learning as the race wore on when third in a Haydock novice on debut 2 weeks ago. He can do better and earns the vote. Lochaber rates a danger, whilst Chumbaa, who boasts plenty of experience, could give a good account on the front end in first-time cheekpieces back over 5f.
Preference is for ALL IS FAIR, who made the frame at Haydock despite plenty going wrong.

1st (7) (2.5/1 +0%) Soldier's Gold |
2.5/1(+0%) | (7) Soldier's Gold 2.5/1, Well backed with his debut under his belt and displayed improved form when second of 10 in maiden at Newbury (6.5f, firm) 21 days ago. That puts him right in the mix. Always front rank when second at Newbury (6.5f, good to firm); that points to a bold bid. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (5/1 -11%) Land Lover |
5/1(-11%) | (5) Land Lover 5/1, Similar form all 3 starts, keeping on for third of 7 in maiden at York (6f, good to firm) 11 days ago, unsuited by emphasis on speed. Just about sets the standard with this stiff track likely to help. Big player judged on all three starts, particularly his second outing (6f, good to firm). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (7.5/1 +32%) Lady Wulfrun |
7.5/1(+32%) | (8) Lady Wulfrun 7.5/1, Low-key debut but more like it when fourth of 11 in novice event at Windsor (6f, good to soft) 16 days ago, not knocked about and looking in need of further. Needs further improvement but some looks possible given she's been slowly away both starts. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (9/1 +10%) Bandello |
9/1(+10%) | (3) Bandello 9/1, Foaled March 20. 18,000 gns foal, £80,000 2-y-o, Twilight Son colt. Dam, 2-y-o 7f winner, sister to useful 6f winner Strike Red. £80,000 2yo; dam 7f 2yo winner (including Group 2; RPR 110); yard 4-11 with 2yos this term. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (3.5/1 -17%) Ajwadi |
3.5/1(-17%) | (1) Ajwadi 3.5/1, Foaled January 23. 14,500 gns foal, 57,000 gns yearling, 150,000 gns 2-y-o, Dutch Art colt. Dam unraced sister to smart winner up to 1m War Envoy out of 1m winner La Conseillante from family of US champion 3-y-o Winning Colors. Appealing newcomer. 57,000gns yearling, 150,000gns 2yo; first foal of sister to Group-placed 6f 2yo/1m winner. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (5.5/1 +45%) Battle Charge |
5.5/1(+45%) | (4) Battle Charge 5.5/1, Showed more than on debut when fifth of 11 in novice event at Windsor (6f, good to firm, 7/1) 23 days ago, not knocked about. Likely has more to offer. Fifth of 11 at Windsor (6f, good to firm) and needs to make another step forward. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (12/1 -50%) Salsa Dancer |
12/1(-50%) | (6) Salsa Dancer 12/1, Half-brother to 3 winners but looks a work-in-progress so far, green on debut and never really a factor when fifth of 7 in maiden at Doncaster (7f, firm, 6/1) 10 days ago. Third start; this late foal could still prove capable of better and needs a second look. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (150/1 -275%) Sue's Little Angel |
150/1(-275%) | (9) Sue's Little Angel 150/1, Went backwards from debut when thirteenth of 14 in novice event at York (5f, good to firm) 12 days ago. Major work to do after two runs at York. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (2) (25/1 -25%) Anglesey Lad |
25/1(-25%) | (2) Anglesey Lad 25/1, Displayed ability when fourth of 11 in maiden (11/1) at Bath (5.7f, good to firm) on debut 42 days ago. May well do better. Others have better form but he looks sure to improve after his 4th at Bath (5.7f, good). |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
SOLDIER'S GOLD improved on his debut effort to fill the runner-up spot at Newbury and with further progression to come, he could prove very tough to beat. The main danger might be Lady Wulfrun, who suffered trouble in running before claiming fourth at Windsor and she can take another step forward. The betting might provide clues as to what to expect from 150,000gns breeze-up purchase Ajwadi on his first taste of competitive action.
SOLDIER'S GOLD left his debut form well behind when runner-up at Newbury 3 weeks ago, sticking to his task in likeable fashion. He looks the way to go, though Land Lover is a definite threat on form, while Ajwadi is a likely-looking newcomer.
Soldier's Gold is preferred to Land Lover among those who have run. AJWADI and Bandello are newcomers to note.

What's The Story |
(1) (5/1 -122%)5/1(-122%) | (1) What's The Story 5/1, Resumed winning ways over C&D in May and backed it up with a good third of 11 in handicap at York (8.8f, good to firm) 11 days ago. Bold showing on the cards down in grade off the same mark. Running well at present and he's a prominent racer who should stay out of trouble. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Jackhammer |
(11) (8/1 +33%)8/1(+33%) | (11) Jackhammer 8/1, Resumed with 33/1-win in 9-runner handicap at Hamilton (9.2f, good to firm) 20 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Dual winner of this event so he's not taken lightly. Has form figures of 171 in the last three renewals and won nicely last time out. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (2) (3.5/1 +22%) Clear Angel |
3.5/1(+22%) | (2) Clear Angel 3.5/1, Back to winning ways in 14-runner handicap at Wetherby (8f, good to soft) 59 days ago. Up 6 lb but had more in the tank there so he's firmly in the picture. 6lb higher than for Wetherby win but still respected after that career-best effort. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (6.5/1 +59%) Strongbowe |
6.5/1(+59%) | (4) Strongbowe 6.5/1, C&D winner who posted a solid fourth of 9 in handicap at Beverley (8.4f, soft) 8 days ago. Can give another good account. Infrequent winner (3-34) who needs the ground good or faster; watch the weather. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (2/1 +40%) Albegrey |
2/1(+40%) | (8) Albegrey 2/1, Resumed from 9 months off with emphatic five-length success in 7-runner handicap over C&D 9 days ago. Big shout turned out under a 5 lb penalty. Penalised for his win here last week when returning from a break; looks improved. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (28/1 +30%) Devasboy |
28/1(+30%) | (6) Devasboy 28/1, Lost all chance at the start when last of 8 in handicap at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) 17 days ago, It's now 13 runs since his last win in 2022. Good run at Windsor in April but nowhere near that level in his three subsequent runs. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (12) (7/1 +22%) Alpine Sierra |
7/1(+22%) | (12) Alpine Sierra 7/1, Off 8 months/had wind op before making a winning yard debut (formerly with Keith Dalgleish) in 1m handicap at Ayr 23 days ago. Well in the mix nudged up 2 lb. Made all for both wins, the latest at Ayr (1m, good/firm) being his debut for Jim Goldie. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (10/1 +38%) Global Spirit |
10/1(+38%) | (7) Global Spirit 10/1, Yet to score this term and only ninth of 11 in handicap at Pontefract (8f, good) 33 days ago. Easing in the weights but more is still needed. Six-time winner who started the season well but has just lost his way of late. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (5) (5/1 +58%) Intercessor |
5/1(+58%) | (5) Intercessor 5/1, Won 3 times at around 1m in 2022 and holding his form well this term, sixth of 19 in handicap at York (7f, good to firm) 32 days ago. Needs considering. Looks handicapped about right but has each-way claims in his current form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (33/1 +50%) Gainsbourg |
33/1(+50%) | (9) Gainsbourg 33/1, Has struggled for form this year, twelfth of 16 in handicap at Pontefract (1m, good to soft) in April. Has work to do after his break. Dangerously treated on his winning form but he's struggled so far for this yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (3) (22/1 +21%) Soames Forsyte |
22/1(+21%) | (3) Soames Forsyte 22/1, Still a maiden but he arrives in good order, fourth of 6 in handicap at Doncaster (10.2f, good to firm) 25 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up again. Can take a hold and didn't appear to stay 1m2f last time at Doncaster; has races in him. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (13) (25/1 -108%) Dogged |
25/1(-108%) | (13) Dogged 25/1, Ended a long losing run at Ripon (1m) in April but only ninth of 11 at Beverley (8.4f, good to soft) 62 days ago. Cheekpieces refitted. Needs to bounce back. Exploited his reduced mark when always prominent at Ripon; had excuses last time. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
A tentative vote goes to ALPINE SIERRA, who struck at the first time of asking for the Jim Goldie team and three subsequent winners have come out of that Ayr race. The son of Distorted Humor seemed to show the benefit of wind surgery on that occasion and is only 2lb higher. Albegrey stormed five lengths away from his nearest rival over C&D last week and is a big danger under his 5lb penalty. Clear Angel and Jackhammer also arrive in winning form and can't be dismissed lightly.
Plenty are in with a shout but one of the most appealing is ALBEGREY, who ran out a five-length winner over C&D on his recent return and gets in under a 5 lb penalty here. Fellow C&D scorer What's The Story is a big threat on the back of a good York third in a much stronger race, although dual winner of this event Jackhammer and ready Wetherby scorer Clear Angel need factoring in too.
If in the same form as nine days ago then ALBEGREY should take some beating under a penalty.

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (8) (7.5/1 -25%) Mostawaa |
7.5/1(-25%) | (8) Mostawaa 7.5/1, Capitalised on much-reduced mark at Brighton (1m) last month and built on that under a well-judged ride to follow up from the front under Hollie Doyle at York (8.8f) 11 days ago. Only 3 lb higher now and entitled to go well again in hat-trick bid. Bang in form but the prospect of competition for the lead reduces his appeal. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (10/1 +38%) Liamarty Dreams |
10/1(+38%) | (1) Liamarty Dreams 10/1, Quickly back on the up this season and displayed a determined attitude to add to his tally at Musselburgh (7f) earlier this month. Far from disgraced when midfield in 13-runner York handicap (7f) 11 days ago and no surprise to see him go well again for last year's winning yard. This career-high mark was a factor in his mid-division finish at York. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (9) (8.5/1 +15%) Painters Palette |
8.5/1(+15%) | (9) Painters Palette 8.5/1, Excellent start for new yard when landing pair of Wolverhampton handicaps in the spring. Shaped better than bare result at Ripon next time and quickly back to best when chasing home Garden Oasis at Ayr (1m) 15 days ago. Intriguing contender and any rain will suit. 2-4 for this yard; ran well in defeat latest and prospect of softer ground won't harm. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (18/1 -50%) Shaladar |
18/1(-50%) | (7) Shaladar 18/1, 3-time winner at around 1m during a steadily progressive 3-y-o campaign and returned with good second from career-high mark at Redcar (1m, heavy) in April. Good fifth at Hamilton next time but not at best when sixth to Golden Sands at Beverley (8.5f) 4 weeks ago. Could bounce back from a rare blip last time but this mark is quite challenging. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (11/1 -38%) United Front |
11/1(-38%) | (3) United Front 11/1, Finished runner-up to an unexposed sort at Yarmouth 2 starts back and capitalised on his much lower turf mark at Beverley (7.4f) 18 days ago, weaving through to lead close home. Rider's claim off-sets subsequent weight rise and good pace to aim at here will suit. Belatedly off the mark on grass last time; not sure softening ground would be welcomed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (12) (25/1 -79%) Garden Oasis |
25/1(-79%) | (12) Garden Oasis 25/1, Finished runner-up in a race that is working out well at Pontefract (1m) in May and duly built on that when landing 7-runner Ayr handicap (1m) 2 weeks ago, by length from Painters Palette. 3 lb higher now and he could well face a good deal of competition on the front end. Dug deep from the front to repel some of today's opposition at Ayr; rain a negative. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (13) (11/1 +21%) On The River |
11/1(+21%) | (13) On The River 11/1, Improved model for present yard, completing quick-fire hat-trick in handicaps at around 1m at Nottingham in May. Went down only narrowly at Beverley (7.4f) on latest outing 17 days ago and this sort of mark not beyond him on that evidence. Has another 2lb nudge to deal with but in his current form he's a strong contender. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (4.5/1 +36%) Pillar Of Hope |
4.5/1(+36%) | (4) Pillar Of Hope 4.5/1, Low-mileage 5-y-o who stepped up on his reappearance run when getting on top close home at Beverley (8.5f) in April. Similar form when fourth from 2 lb higher mark in Zetland Gold Cup at Redcar (10f) 4 weeks ago and cannot be discounted. Not far away in Redcar's always-strong Zetland Gold Cup last time; thereabouts. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (14) (9/1 +25%) Vaccine |
9/1(+25%) | (14) Vaccine 9/1, Remains winless in handicap company but comes here in good heart, hitting the frame in pair of Pontefract handicaps (at 1m) during the spring, latterly behind The Cookstown Cafu during early May. Given a break and good showing anticipated. Continues to run well in handicaps without looking particularly well treated. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (17) (8.5/1 +47%) Tilsitt |
8.5/1(+47%) | (17) Tilsitt 8.5/1, Successful twice either side of finishing a good fourth from a 3 lb higher mark in this race 12 months ago. Steadily back to form this term, good third in 7-runner handicap at Ayr (1m) 15 days ago. Not out of things. Good third at Ayr last time and he's 3lb lower than when fourth 12 months ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (6) (22/1 -10%) Golden Sands |
22/1(-10%) | (6) Golden Sands 22/1, Front runner who opened account for this yard at Kempton (1m) in February. Lightly raced since and bagged first win on turf granted an uncontested lead at Beverley (8.5f) 4 weeks ago. 6 lb higher mark demands more in this deeper affair. Made the most of an uncontested lead at Beverley; 6lb higher this time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (2) (6/1 +25%) The Cookstown Cafu |
6/1(+25%) | (2) The Cookstown Cafu 6/1, Ended 2022 in fine form and picked up where he left off with a pair of victories at Redcar and Pontefract. Hard to knock his efforts in defeat since, close-up fourth under change of tactics at Beverley (7.4f) 17 days ago. Respected with any easing of the ground holding no fears. Mark has suffered for winning three of his six races since wind surgery; only 4th latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (16) (22/1 -10%) Star Zinc |
22/1(-10%) | (16) Star Zinc 22/1, Fairly useful handicapper who capitalised on career-low mark to shed maiden tag at Southwell (1m), a well-run event on just his second AW start suiting well. Handicapper has reacted but a good pace here will suit, as will any further easing of the ground. Needs a strong pace up front and he came through to win comfortably at Southwell. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (11) (10/1 +9%) Award Dancer |
10/1(+9%) | (11) Award Dancer 10/1, Ex-Irish gelding who has steadily improved for Grant Tuer, gaining third career success at Newcastle (1m) on penultimate start in October. Absent since finishing midfield at that venue a month later but worth noting he's gone well fresh previously. This is a hard race to win first time back and softening ground might not be ideal. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (10) (66/1 +0%) Mossbawn |
66/1(+0%) | (10) Mossbawn 66/1, Progressive at 4 but didn't build on a good reappearance run in just 4 outings last season. Easy to back and offered little returning for new yard/on back of 8 months off at York (7f) in May. Others make much more appeal. Capable on old form but tailed off the last twice, latterly on stable debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Fresh from a successful week at Royal Ascot, the Michael Appleby team can strike again with GOLDEN SANDS, who was a comfortable winner at Beverley last time out and a 6lb rise may not to be enough to prevent him from following up. Stablemate United Front might give him plenty to think about, along with the consistent On The River and Mostawaa. Others to note include Garden Oasis, Painters Palette and Pillar Of Hope.
Unsurprisingly claims can be made for most and with that in mind a chance is taken on VACCINE. He ran well when placed in a pair of Pontefract handicaps during the spring and any further easing of the ground will hold no fears on the back of a short break. Painters Palette for Rebecca Menzies, Beverley-scorer United Front and hat-trick seeking Mostawaa head the dangers. The thriving Bashful can't be discounted either if taking up this engagement.
The chances are this will be run at a strong pace and that will suit STAR ZINC (nap), who won well in the end at Southwell.

1st (8) (6/1 +63%) Two Brothers |
6/1(+63%) | (8) Two Brothers 6/1, Deservedly off the mark at Beverley in April and remained in form since, running up to his best when third back there (1½m, good to firm) 17 days ago. Can't be discounted for a stable which knows what it takes to win this. Has taken his form to a new level this season; should be seriously involved again. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (7/1 +30%) Ravenscraig Castle |
7/1(+30%) | (5) Ravenscraig Castle 7/1, Recorded creditable in-frame efforts in competitive Sky Bet Sunday Series handicaps at Musselburgh and Hamilton this spring. Found less than seemingly likely when fifth of 6 at York last time and has a tongue tie added on the back of that. His form dipped somewhat 12 days ago and he now has his tongue tied first time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (14) (11/1 +56%) Sophiesticate |
11/1(+56%) | (14) Sophiesticate 11/1, Career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Musselburgh (12.5f, good) 5 days ago. Has won back to back before and should be competitive under a 5 lb penalty. None too consistent but hit peak form to win at Musselburgh (1m4f, good) five days ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (28/1 +15%) Blistering Barney |
28/1(+15%) | (9) Blistering Barney 28/1, Three wins in productive 2022 but yet to scale same heights this year. Mark on the slide but need to see more. Front-runner; just 1lb higher than his latest win, having been well below form this season. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (16) (18/1 -29%) Graces Quest |
18/1(-29%) | (16) Graces Quest 18/1, Added another C&D win at the beginning of this month. Chased home Gibside here last week and she's weighted to turn the tables on that rival on these 6 lb better terms. Two wins and a second (latest start) from four races at Carlisle, all over 1m3f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (3.33/1 +0%) Dream Harder |
3.33/1(+0%) | (2) Dream Harder 3.33/1, Good advert for this yard, gaining fourth success of a fruitful AW campaign at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in February. Hard to knock his efforts in defeat since, shaping well behind a subsequent winner when second of 15 at York last time. Big player. Eyecatching fourth at Chester (10.3f) and second of 15 in amateurs race at York (1m4f). |

7th (6) (8.5/1 +47%) Wynter Wildes |
8.5/1(+47%) | (6) Wynter Wildes 8.5/1, Three-time winner in 2022 who gained first success in 2023 when just shading a tight finish in a 3-runner race at Haydock 14 days ago. Only nudged up 2 lb but this is a lot more competitive. Back to best turf form to win by a head in three-runner race at Haydock (11.6f) last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (11) (9/1 +36%) Gibside |
9/1(+36%) | (11) Gibside 9/1, Pair of 1½m Ripon wins last summer and added to his tally when a smooth winner of C&D 0-65 last week. Has a 5 lb penalty to carry in a much stronger race now. Won over C&D nine days ago on good to soft, leading over 1f out, and did it in tidy style. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (17) (66/1 -136%) Ghost Rider |
66/1(-136%) | (17) Ghost Rider 66/1, Nineteen runs since last win in 2021. Creditable second of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (1m) 7 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Significantly back up in trip. Well down the weights and placed on two of three starts this term; not proven beyond 1m2f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (10) (6.5/1 -63%) C'mon Kenny |
6.5/1(-63%) | (10) C'mon Kenny 6.5/1, Overcame late trouble in running when narrowly taking 8-runner handicap (7/2) at Pontefract (1½m, good to firm) 16 days ago. Cheekpieces added now. A 4 lb rise looks more than fair but draw could have been kinder. Lightly raced 7yo; overcame trouble in running to win by head at Pontefract (1m4f) latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (13) (11/1 +39%) Jewel Maker |
11/1(+39%) | (13) Jewel Maker 11/1, Course winner last season and back on a good mark. Shaped as if still in good form when sixth of 11 over 9f at York 11 days ago, caught too far back in a race where the pace held up. Stable no stranger to success in this handicap. Respected. Met trouble in running when fourth twice this summer; well-in judged on last summer's form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (1) (18/1 -50%) Skilled Warrior |
18/1(-50%) | (1) Skilled Warrior 18/1, Proved at least as good as ever after 5 months off when winning 10-runner handicap at Newcastle (1m) in April. Well held back on turf at Thirsk (1m again) since and now steps back up significantly in trip. Others are more obvious. AW win in April but ran poorly at Thrisk (soft) early last month, both over 1m. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (7) (14/1 +30%) Molinari |
14/1(+30%) | (7) Molinari 14/1, C&D winner. Best effort this term when third of 5 in handicap at Hamilton (11f, good to firm, 8/1) 28 days ago, needing stiffer test. Step back in right direction last time; 1st and 2nd over 1m3f in his two runs at Carlisle. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (12) (33/1 -32%) Loom Large |
33/1(-32%) | (12) Loom Large 33/1, Fair winner in Ireland for Andrew Oliver. Still relatively low mileage and will stay but betting is perhaps the best guide to expectations on reappearance for new trainer Iain Jardine. 1m2f win at Naas last August; 18,000gns buy in October; lightly raced; chance on best form. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
The value may lie with DREAM HARDER because he ran an excellent race at York behind an in-form handicapper who has gone in again since. Ian Williams' charge remains unexposed on the turf and he is narrowly preferred to easy Ripon winner Knightswood and C'mon Kenny, who was a determined scorer at Pontefract last time out. Gibside and Two Brothers are expected to be thereabouts as well.
DREAM HARDER has shaped well in defeat on a few occasions since his latest win on AW in February and is selected to get his head back in front now. Two Brothers and Jewel Maker represent stables with winning form in this race in recent years and head the dangers along with the selection's stablemate C'mon Kenny, who has a tricky draw but still looks well treated up 4 lb for Pontefract.
Ian Williams has two strong candidates in DREAM HARDER and C'Mon Kenny who both look as they will prove suited by this stiff track.

1st (9) (3.5/1 +13%) Vetiver |
3.5/1(+13%) | (9) Vetiver 3.5/1, Dual winner in novices and far from disgraced upped in grade when fourth in heavy-ground listed race at Chester last time. Has the best form and may do better still, so looks the one to beat in first-time tongue tie. Perhaps not at her best when fourth in a Chester handicap that's worked out well. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (7.5/1 +25%) Dandy Alys |
7.5/1(+25%) | (4) Dandy Alys 7.5/1, Off the mark at the third attempt at Nottingham last July and took her form up a level in 3 starts after, running as well as could've been expected when ninth in Prix Marcel Boussac at Longchamp (1m, soft) in October. Down the field at Epsom on return but likely to come on for it. Chance on peak 2yo form and perhaps unwise to read too much into a quiet return at Epsom. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (3.33/1 -11%) Lady Onyx |
3.33/1(-11%) | (7) Lady Onyx 3.33/1, Won ordinary 10-runner maiden (8/1) at Gowran (7f, soft) on debut and took a big step forward when third in a listed contest at Musselburgh earlier this month. Should be involved if improving once again. Soft-ground winner before finishing third in a fast-ground Listed; comes into it. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (7/1 +56%) Glenlaurel |
7/1(+56%) | (5) Glenlaurel 7/1, Looked a good prospect when winning on debut at Thirsk last year. Has run to form on each of her two outings in listed company this term without looking quite up to the task. Others are more persuasive. Continues to be highly tried but capable of having a say in this company. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (40/1 -21%) Glorious Angel |
40/1(-21%) | (6) Glorious Angel 40/1, Completed hat-trick in January, winning at Southwell (twice) and Newcastle. Not in same form since, although run best excused when down the field in a listed event at Chelmsford a couple of months ago. 40-1 when struggling in a Listed event on the AW last time; again up against it. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (3/1 +14%) Secret Angel |
3/1(+14%) | (1) Secret Angel 3/1, Scored 3 times as a juvenile, most notably in listed event at Deauville. Useful form this year and likely to be on the premises for all that others have more scope for improvement. Ran well in two Group 3s before perhaps not taking a liking to Epsom last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (12/1 -243%) Ceanna |
12/1(-243%) | (2) Ceanna 12/1, Well-bred filly who was firmly back on the up when landing a Southwell handicap in decisive fashion 15 days ago. Well worth a try at this level and should be involved if she settles. Hosed up in an AW handicap latest and new mark elevates her to this level. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (12/1 +33%) Miss Jungle Cat |
12/1(+33%) | (8) Miss Jungle Cat 12/1, Fairly useful as a juvenile and looked rusty when back from 10 months off in a handicap at York 11 days ago. Should come on for that but more is required. Down the field in a York handicap on return; this a big ask on the balance of her form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (3) (80/1 -186%) Creative Style |
80/1(-186%) | (3) Creative Style 80/1, Has improved with each run to date and made successful start for current yard in maiden at Wolverhampton last time. Cheekpieces on now but needs a more marked step forward if she's to make any sort of impact up in grade. AW maiden winner; would be receiving weight from all of these in a handicap. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (10) (28/1 -100%) Way To Amarillo |
28/1(-100%) | (10) Way To Amarillo 28/1, On an upward curve and finished well to land a 4-runner handicap at Chepstow on return. More needed here but shrewd handler places his horses well, so clearly thought capable of competing at this level. Going the right way but it wasn't much of a handicap that she won at Chepstow. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
CEANNA pulled too hard on her return to action at Newmarket, but made amends when impressing in a Southwell handicap. The assessor has responded with an 18lb hike, so it is no surprise to see connections attempting to gain black type with the daughter of Showcasing. Secret Angel's form against some classier types gives her every chance, while Lady Onyx is open to progression having finished third at Musselburgh in this grade on just her second start.
VETIVER boasts a progressive profile and acquitted herself well in tough conditions at Chester last time, so she's marginally preferred to Ceanna, who made a big impression when landing a handicap at Southwell recently. Lady Onyx is another one to consider in an open listed race.
While SECRET ANGEL is more exposed than some of these and carries a penalty, she brings solid credentials to the table.

1st (3) (7/1 +13%) Kitai |
7/1(+13%) | (3) Kitai 7/1, Matched previous best when opening her account in a Pontefract maiden (6f) last summer. Well held at listed level on final start but better for return when fourth in 9-runner Catterick handicap (7f) 5 weeks ago. Mark has eased a little more. Has not progressed and will need to run better than at Catterick last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (11/1 +0%) Do I Dream |
11/1(+0%) | (8) Do I Dream 11/1, Back to best on back of a 5-month break when doubling career tally at Pontefract (1m, heavy) in April. Best excused run back at that venue later that month. Absent since but fact she's gone well fresh previously is a plus if the drop back in trip doesn't catch her out. Dual slow-ground winner at Pontefract; never figured from a bad draw there last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (9) (4.5/1 +18%) Platinum Girl |
4.5/1(+18%) | (9) Platinum Girl 4.5/1, Improved model this campaign, making it 2 wins from 4 starts (runner-up other 2 occasions) when making all in a C&D handicap 9 days ago. Can't be ruled out under a penalty for all this is a step up in class. Improving filly and had a bit in hand over C&D last week after making all; penalised. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (6.5/1 -8%) Iris Dancer |
6.5/1(-8%) | (5) Iris Dancer 6.5/1, Returned to form when narrow second at Hamilton (6f) on penultimate start and enhanced good record at that track when going one place better 7 days ago, making running and driven clear final 1f. No surprise to see her out under a penalty and respected. The Hamilton race she won last week rather fell apart in behind; penalised. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (6.5/1 -86%) Classic Puzzle |
6.5/1(-86%) | (2) Classic Puzzle 6.5/1, Zoffany filly who confirmed debut promise when landing 8-runner Thirsk maiden (7f, heavy) in May. Seemingly found listed company too hot, at least at this early stage, at Musselburgh since and this rates more suitable on handicap debut. Novice winner who struggled in a Listed last time; remains relatively unexposed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (18/1 +0%) True Jem |
18/1(+0%) | (1) True Jem 18/1, Successful 3 times on AW/turf at 6f last year but yet to fire in 4 starts this term, weakening over 1f out when eighth in 11-runner handicap at Doncaster (1m) 26 days ago. Now 5 lb below last winning mark but she's tough to assess at present. Three 6f wins last season but this campaign is turning into a struggle. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (10) (12/1 -20%) Lady Roamer |
12/1(-20%) | (10) Lady Roamer 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden who made a satisfactory return from 10 months off when second of 11 in handicap at Southwell (7f) 15 days ago, no match for easy winner. May well be sharper for that here but she's eligible for lesser contests than this one. 0-5; questionable what she achieved when left for dead by the winner on AW return. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (3/1 +60%) Tellus |
3/1(+60%) | (4) Tellus 3/1, Off the mark in 6f Pontefract novice on reappearance and improved again to make a successful handicap debut at Ayr (7f, good) in May. However, she needs to shrug off a below-par display at York (7f) 32 days ago. Novice/handicap wins to begin the season; reportedly fast ground too fast at York latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (7) (8.5/1 +15%) Greycious Anna |
8.5/1(+15%) | (7) Greycious Anna 8.5/1, Havana Grey filly who was much-improved from first 3 starts when taking 8-runner Redcar novice (7f) last August. Absent since finishing well-beaten at York in October but undergone wind surgery ahead of return and the betting could prove a useful guide. Absent since October and has undergone wind surgery, so returns with a bit to prove. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
TELLUS had excuses when attempting to make it three on the bounce at York last month, with fast ground being blamed post-race, and the likelihood of more ease in underfoot conditions may help her bounce back on this occasion. Iris Dancer carries a 5lb penalty for her victory at Hamilton last week and has to enter calculations, along with another penalised runner in Platinum Girl. who did it well over C&D.
CLASSIC PUZZLE seemed to find listed company too much on her latest outing but she'd previously looked a filly to keep onside and could get back on the up having her first crack at handicaps. Platinum Girl, a good winner over C&D recently, heads the dangers. Gometra Ginty who has landed this race for each of the last 2 years and Iris Dancer are next best.
It may pay to give another chance for TELLUS to maintain this season's progress after reportedly finding the ground too quick at York.

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.
