1st (10)  (11/4 +45%)Sunshine State |
11/4(+45%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Sunshine State 11/4, Foaled March 13. 140,000 gns yearling, 20,000 gns 2-y-o, Havana Grey filly. Half-sister to winner up to 1m Echo Beach and useful winner up to 1m Oddyssey. Interesting newcomer. 20,000 breeze-up 2yo; half-sister to two winners; starts out in modest event; interesting. |
|||
2nd (6)  (10/3 +0%)Cyclonite |
10/3(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Cyclonite 10/3, Showed something like debut form, in first-time blinkers, when third of 11 in maiden at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 16 days ago. Likely contender. Improved for headgear when 3rd at Wolverhampton 16 days ago (5f); 6f should suit. |
|||
3rd (1)  (14/1 -40%)Dark Thunderstorm |
14/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Dark Thunderstorm 14/1, Once-raced colt. 33/1, seventh of 8 in maiden at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) on debut 35 days ago. Improvement required. 7th in a strong Lingfield maiden 5 weeks ago (6f, good to firm); may need more of a test. |
|||
4th (3)  (14/1 -155%)Never Know |
14/1(-155%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Never Know 14/1, Once-raced colt. 9/2, eighth of 11 in maiden at Wolverhampton (5.1f) on debut 16 days ago. Should improve. Shaped quite well at Wolverhampton (5f) 16 days ago; should know more this time. |
|||
5th (4)  (8/1 +0%)Sir Palamedes |
8/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Sir Palamedes 8/1, Twice-raced colt. Fourth of 8 in minor event (12/1) at Bath (5f, good) 27 days ago. Each-way claims. Fourth in two 5f turf runs last month; extra furlong should suit; respected on AW debut. |
|||
6th (5)  (33/1 +0%)Beauhaather |
33/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Beauhaather 33/1, Twice-raced gelding. 33/1, sixth of 16 in maiden at Pontefract (6f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Will likely be seen in better light in handicaps. Modest form in two Pontefract runs this spring; improvement required to win. |
|||
7th (7)  (18/1 -80%)Lift Lady |
18/1(-80%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Lift Lady 18/1, Twice-raced filly. 40/1, last of 10 in minor event at Epsom (6f, soft) 20 days ago, badly hampered. Others more appealing. Heavy defeats in both starts but favourite for debut and clearly held in some regard. |
|||
8th (2)  (15/2 -299%)Foro Romano |
15/2(-299%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Foro Romano 15/2, Improved on debut effort when second of 6 in maiden at Yarmouth (5.2f, good to firm, 18/5) 24 days ago and should benefit from the step up in trip here. Leading player. Second of six at Yarmouth in April; 6f should suit but likely he needs improvement. |
|||
9th (9)  (50/1 +24%)Telford |
50/1(+24%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Telford 50/1, Once-raced filly. 40/1, twelfth of 13 in maiden at Goodwood (6f, good) on debut 6 days ago. Looks a longer-term prospect. 40-1 when always in rear at Goodwood last week (6f, good to soft); big step forward needed. |
|||
10th (8)  (20/1 +60%)Love Rock |
20/1(+60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Love Rock 20/1, Once-raced filly. Seventh of 11 in maiden at Nottingham (5f, good, 50/1) on debut 15 days ago. Likely to need more time. 50-1, green and finished well beaten on recent Nottingham debut (5f, good to firm). |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
FORO ROMANO stepped forward from his third at Wolverhampton when filling the runner-up spot at Yarmouth and the experience of those performances may well be enough to see George Boughey's colt get off the mark. Sir Palamedes is entitled to improve for the extra furlong based on his fourth at Bath last time, while it will be interesting to see how the market reacts to the chances of newcomer Sunshine State.
FORO ROMANO found improvement when runner-up at Yarmouth last time and may have more to offer yet. He can get off the mark. Cyclonite looks the likeliest danger on form, whilst market support for Charlie Johnston's newcomer Sunshine State could prove significant.
Cyclonite and Sir Palamedes should go well but the well-bred newcomer SUNSHINE STATE could be worth chancing.

(9)  (12/1 +25%)The Defiant |
12/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) The Defiant 12/1, C&D winner who returned to form when second of 4 in Brighton handicap (5.3f, good to firm) 2 days ago. This looks tougher, though. 1 lb out of the weights. Two course wins but recent efforts have been patchy; second of four at Brighton on Tuesday. |
|||
1st (6)  (9/2 +0%)Almaty Star |
9/2(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Almaty Star 9/2, Posted best effort of the season, in first-time cheekpieces, when second of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 16 days ago. Can race off same mark here and must enter calculations. Bold bid at Lingfield 16 days ago (cheekpieces 1st time); other front-runners to deal with. |
|||
2nd (1)  (20/1 -150%)Emperor Spirit |
20/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Emperor Spirit 20/1, Course winner. Creditable second of 12 in handicap at Haydock (6f, firm, 10/1). Off 12 months. Worth monitoring in market on return. Of interest on last season's best but other pace to contend with back from a year off. |
|||
3rd (7)  (6/1 -33%)Dark Side Prince |
6/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Dark Side Prince 6/1, Completed a C&D hat-trick, back from 8 weeks off, when taking 9-runner handicap 28 days ago, driven out. 3 lb rise fair and looks sure to go well again. Fine record in C&D handicaps and comes here chasing a four-timer; up in class though. |
|||
4th (8)  (28/1 -133%)Buraback |
28/1(-133%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Buraback 28/1, C&D winner. 4 wins from 12 runs this year. Latest win at Leicester in April. Bit below form fifth of 13 in handicap (33/1) at Haydock (5f, good) 14 days ago, first home in group. Warrants respect. Had a purple patch this spring but the handicapper may have his measure now. |
|||
5th (5)  (15/2 -114%)Harry Brown |
15/2(-114%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Harry Brown 15/2, C&D winner who bounced back to form when third of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 16 days ago. 1 lb lower now and warrants respect. Losing run up to ten but he's on a good mark and ran well at Lingfield last time. |
|||
6th (4)  (14/1 -40%)Lord Riddiford |
14/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Lord Riddiford 14/1, Three-time C&D winner but yet to really fire this year and ran poorly, back from 3 months off, at Epsom 19 days ago. Been given a chance by the handicapper, though. Good record over C&D; never featured in the Dash but on a good mark; better expected. |
|||
7th (2)  (13/2 +19%)Princess Shabnam |
13/2(+19%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Princess Shabnam 13/2, Course winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 25/1) 29 days ago, doing too much too soon. Down in trip. Others have achieved more. Not the force of old and dropping to 5f isn't sure to spark a revival. |
|||
8th (3)  (15/8 +53%)Rocking Ends |
15/8(+53%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Rocking Ends 15/8, Latest win at Windsor in May. 9/4, creditable fifth of 10 at same course at Windsor (5.1f, good to firm) 10 days ago. Not out of things. Two good runs for new yard at Windsor; effective over C&D; should go well again. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
DARK SIDE PRINCE arrives following a hat-trick of C&D victories and a 3lb rise for the latest success doesn't seem likely to stop the seven-year-old from continuing in his current vein of form. Almaty Star remains on the same mark as his second at Lingfield earlier in the month, when one place in front of Harry Brown, and the pair have to enter the reckoning. Emperor Spirit and Rocking Ends are others to consider.
Multiple C&D scorer DARK SIDE PRINCE steps into a higher grade but is clearly thriving and may be able to continue his winning run. Almaty Star and Harry Brown rate the principal dangers.
The veteran Lord Riddiford can go well off his lowly mark but ROCKING ENDS could get a good tow into the race and he's preferred.

1st (8)  (5/2 +9%)Ehtiram |
5/2(+9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Ehtiram 5/2, After 6 months off, wasn't able to land the odds (5/6) but showed improved form when second of 10 in maiden at Lingfield (9f, good to firm) 23 days ago, clear of rest. Leading contender with further progress to come. Latest Lingfield 2nd sets the standard; behind Qamari at 2yrs; longer trip looks a plus. |
|||
2nd (2)  (6/1 -20%)Expected Arrival |
6/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Expected Arrival 6/1, Ran to a similar level as on debut when third of 11 in minor event (6/1) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in December, needing a stronger gallop. Could be better to come as she goes up in trip after 6 months off. Two promising efforts in late 2023; longer trip a plus; more to come in 2024; drawn wide. |
|||
3rd (3)  (2/1 -60%)Loves Loving |
2/1(-60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Loves Loving 2/1, Made plenty of appeal on paper but in need of the experience when fourth of 10 in minor event at Goodwood (9.9f, good to firm, 4/1) on debut 26 days ago, very slowly away. Respected with her first run behind her. Blew the start and green in the race on recent Goodwood debut; capable of much better. |
|||
4th (4)  (5/1 -43%)Qamari |
5/1(-43%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Qamari 5/1, Bred for longer trips and shaped encouragingly first time out when third of 12 in minor event (11/2) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in November. Merits consideration on her return as she goes up in distance. Promising 3rd at Wolverhampton 7 months ago (8.6f); longer trip a plus; big player. |
|||
5th (9)  (80/1 -100%)Inbetweenus |
80/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Inbetweenus 80/1, With hooded applied after 5 months off, fourth of 8 in handicap (40/1) at Lingfield (12f, AW) 10 days ago, merely plugging on. Has something to find. Beaten in Class 6 handicaps the last twice; surprising if she were good enough. |
|||
6th (5)  (80/1 -300%)Springbecamesummer |
80/1(-300%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Springbecamesummer 80/1, Offered something to work on making her debut, but below that level 5 months later when last of 10 in minor event at Goodwood (9.9f, good to firm, 14/1) 26 days ago. Needs to get back on track. Unplaced in her two starts, finishing behind reopposing rivals on each occasion. |
|||
7th (6)  (40/1 -21%)Teatime |
40/1(-21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Teatime 40/1, After 6 months off, was still green when ninth of 12 in maiden at Yarmouth (7f, good, 14/1) 51 days ago. Up in trip but she may just need more time. Step up in trip a positive but she needs to leave her two 7f runs behind her. |
|||
8th (7)  (150/1 -127%)Chelsea Flower |
150/1(-127%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Chelsea Flower 150/1, Making her first start since leaving Jack Channon, again made little impact when ninth of 12 in minor event (200/1) at this C&D 2 weeks ago. Looks one for the longer term. Stable debut here two weeks ago wasn't without promise; handicaps could see her blossom. |
|||
9th (1)  (25/1 -56%)Positivia |
25/1(-56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Positivia 25/1, Runner-up on first of 2 outings in bumpers and fair form both starts in this sphere, third of 7 in maiden at Catterick (12.1f, soft, 20/1) 28 days ago. Can give another good account. Promise in bumpers/on Flat but perhaps one for handicaps over further after this. |
|||
10th (12)  (250/1 -150%)Masar Way |
250/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Masar Way 250/1, Down the field both starts, off 6 months ahead of finishing last of 10 in maiden at Lingfield (9f, good to firm, 50/1) 23 days ago. Best watched. Poor form in her two runs six months apart; handicaps more suitable after this. |
|||
11th (10)  (200/1 -300%)Kimchi |
200/1(-300%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Kimchi 200/1, Showed a bit more than on her debut 6 months earlier when seventh of 10 in maiden at Lingfield (9f, good to firm, 28/1) 23 days ago. Needs another run for a handicap mark. Over 7l behind Ehtiram at Lingfield last month; handicaps more suitable after this. |
|||
12th (11)  (251/1 -151%)Larenta |
251/1(-151%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Larenta 251/1, Little promise in 2 starts so far, tenth of 12 in minor event (300/1) at this C&D 2 weeks ago. Looks to be up against it. Modest form in two fillies' novice events this summer; no appeal this time. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Loves Loving displayed her inexperience on debut, breaking slowly from the stalls, when fourth at Goodwood and she may have paid for that in the closing stages. If getting away on terms, the daughter of Expert Eye is more than capable of taking a decent step forward. The vote, though, goes to EHTIRAM. She was beaten at odds-on when returning at Lingfield, but that was an improved effort and she has scope for further improvement. Qamari and Expected Arrival complete the shortlist.
EHTIRAM took another step forward in defeat when runner-up at Lingfield on her return, only edged out by one who had the benefit of a recent run, so she could be ready to get off the mark this time around. Loves Loving is feared most with improvement to come from her debut effort, while Qamari is also one to note upped in trip.
Loves Loving and QAMARI are open to considerable improvement after promising debuts. The latter is marginally preferred.

1st (1)  (15/8 +58%)Enfjaar |
15/8(+58%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Enfjaar 15/8, Won his first 2 starts but didn't go on from those efforts subsequently last season, sixth of 9 in handicap here (8f, 5/2) when last seen in November (gelded since). However, he could bounce back upped in trip with hood reapplied. Has won here and is proven fresh, but still has a bit to prove not least stamina. |
|||
2nd (2)  (7/2 -17%)Stay Well |
7/2(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Stay Well 7/2, Stepped up on reappearance when length third of 7 to the reopposing Wadacre Gomez in handicap (9/2) at this C&D 2 weeks ago, faring best of those held up. One to consider. Engaged 5.05 Ascot Wednesday. Closely matched with Wadacre Gomez on latest C&D running; shouldn't be far away. |
|||
3rd (6)  (33/1 -106%)Zealot |
33/1(-106%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Zealot 33/1, Eight-time winner including over C&D, but has struggled for form this year, 4½ lengths last of 7 to Wadacre Gomez in handicap (11/1) here 2 weeks ago. Dropping in the weights but has something to prove at present. Has been prolific, but poor since returning in February; best watched for now.. |
|||
4th (4)  (6/1 -140%)Wadacre Gomez |
6/1(-140%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Wadacre Gomez 6/1, Proved at least as good as ever when recording a fourth C&D success in 7-runner handicap (4/1) a fortnight ago, finding extra reverting to front-running tactics. Not taken lightly at this venue. Made it 6-17 on the AW when making all over C&D last time; may get his own way again. |
|||
5th (3)  (11/2 +21%)Tarjeeh |
11/2(+21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Tarjeeh 11/2, In his bid for a hat-trick after a further 7 months off, only eighth of 11 in handicap at Windsor (10f, good to firm, 9/2) 26 days ago, though met some trouble around 2f out. Still remains early days as he makes polytrack debut. 2-4 in an abbreviated career; held on handicap debut last time; questions to answer. |
|||
6th (7)  (10/1 -122%)Sniper's Eye |
10/1(-122%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Sniper's Eye 10/1, After 7 weeks off, opened his account in straightforward fashion in 10-runner minor event (8/11) at Southwell (8.1f) in September. Could still have more to offer as he goes up in trip with hood applied on his return. Off nine months, but shapes as though he can do even better and trip should suit; hood on. |
|||
7th (8)  (22/1 -38%)Roxanne |
22/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Roxanne 22/1, Again raced too freely when last of 16 in handicap at Wetherby (10f, good to firm, 10/1) 17 days ago. However, she had shaped well over C&D on her stable debut, so she's not written off with hood on 1st time. Twice beaten miles on turf since a narrow defeat over C&D; hood on. |
|||
8th (5)  (33/1 -136%)Diamond Ranger |
33/1(-136%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Diamond Ranger 33/1, Making first start since leaving George Boughey, looked rusty after 8 months off when 4¼ lengths fifth of 7 to Wadacre Gomez in handicap (16/1) at this C&D 2 weeks ago. More needed as he bids for a first handicap success. Behind a couple of these on stable debut over C&D after an absence; may be better for it. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
TARJEEH has clearly had his issues, with just the four career starts, but he ran well to be beaten three lengths into eighth at Windsor on his first appearance of 2024 and looks all set for a big performance off 1lb lower here, assuming nominal improvement. David Simcock's horses are running well and Sniper's Eye could be interesting, despite an absence of close to nine months. C&D winner Wadacre Gomez is another to consider, for a place at least.
ENFJAAR had looked a useful prospect when winning at this course last season, so it would be no surprise to see him get back on track having been gelded ahead of this year's reappearance. With the hood reapplied as he goes up in trip, he can get the better of 4-time C&D winner Wadacre Gomez, with Roxanne completing the shortlist.
The safest option is WADACRE GOMEZ (nap) who seems likely to enjoy an uncontested lead, just as when making all over C&D recently.

11/2(+8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Shaheen Saqaar 11/2, Winner at Wolverhampton in December. Creditable 1¾ lengths third of 14 to Marion's Boy in handicap (10/1) at Lingfield (1¼m, AW) 19 days ago. Respected. Third behind Marion's Boy at Lingfield this month; 4lb better off; shouldn't be far away. |
|||
2nd (4)  (4/1 +33%)Brassavola |
4/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Brassavola 4/1, 3 lengths sixth of 14 to Marion's Boy in handicap at Lingfield (1¼m, AW) 19 days ago. Blinkers on first time. 0-7 but not far behind a couple of these at Lingfield last time; blinkers on. |
|||
3rd (9)  (3/1 -71%)Night Breeze |
3/1(-71%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Night Breeze 3/1, Good second of 10 in handicap at Kempton (11f) 8 days ago, clear of rest. Tough to beat from the same mark. 0-8 but runner-up the last twice; 4lb well in; one for the shortlist. |
|||
4th (1)  (25/1 -108%)Mildyjama |
25/1(-108%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Mildyjama 25/1, Fifth of 7 in handicap (12/1) at Lingfield (11.5f, good) 28 days ago. First-time blinkers replace cheekpieces. Not threatened in three starts for this yard since returning in April; blinkers on. |
|||
5th (3)  (40/1 -789%)Marion's Boy |
40/1(-789%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Marion's Boy 40/1, C&D winner, including in February. Also won 14-runner handicap at Lingfield (1¼m, AW2) 19 days ago, always holding on. Should remain competitive up 4 lb. Five wins at Lingfield, but the other came over this C&D; leading player. |
|||
6th (2)  (80/1 -220%)Moab |
80/1(-220%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Moab 80/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 7 on handicap debut at Lingfield (1¼m, good to firm, 20/1) 12 days ago. Not easy to make a case for. Some abilty for Joseph O'Brien but not so good in two starts for this yard; best watched. |

7th (10)  (66/1 -1100%)Chourmo |
66/1(-1100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Chourmo 66/1, Successful twice over 1¼m at Brighton recently, the latter success gained in a first time hood (retained) 13 days ago. Merits consideration. In good form at Brighton lately; possibilities if transferring the improvement back to AW. |
|||
8th (5)  (66/1 -371%)Early Morning Dew |
66/1(-371%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Early Morning Dew 66/1, Came good in a first-time visor over C&D in April 2023 but hasn't been seen since. The headgear is left off on return. The betting is perhaps the best guide to expectations on return. Last seen winning over C&D in April last year; only 1lb higher. |
|||
9th (8)  (100/1 -614%)Jenson Benson |
100/1(-614%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Jenson Benson 100/1, Four-time course winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Respectable fifth of 9 in C&D handicap when last seen in February, never nearer. Four-time winner here and 4lb below last winning mark, but no great record fresh. |
|||
10th (6)  (50/1 -52%)River Alwen |
50/1(-52%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) River Alwen 50/1, Dual turf winner in Britain at the start of his career. Also successful in Hong Kong last year. A watching brief is the percentage call on British return. 2-7 for Richard Hannon, but 1-31 in Hong Kong; not sure what to expect. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
JENSON BENSON loves it here with four career wins, the latest over this trip in February off a mark 4lb higher than his current figure. Fifth here in February when left with a bit too much to do, he can go close on his return from a break. Night Breeze is due to go up 4lb for future contests after his Kempton second and is the obvious danger, despite the rise in class. River Alwen intrigues on his first start since returning from Hong Kong.
NIGHT BREEZE has really found form lately and can go one better than at Kempton last Wednesday. Chourmo has had a good spell at Brighton lately and is second choice ahead of Shaheen Saqaar.
The vote goes to MARION'S BOY who looks the one to beat after his latest Lingfield success. He also has winning form over this C&D.

(12)  (20/1 -43%)Bora Bora |
20/1(-43%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Bora Bora 20/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in April but only sixth of 9 back there since. Stays 1m but all runs for this yard over shorter; not at his best last time; up in class. |
|||
1st (3)  (11/2 -22%)Noodle Mission |
11/2(-22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Noodle Mission 11/2, Two wins from 4 runs this year. Career best when winning 11-runner handicap (12/1) at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) 32 days ago, keeping on well. This likeable type can figure again if stall 12 isn't too big an inconvenience. In good form over 7f for new yard; effective here and at 1m; one to take seriously. |
|||
2nd (8)  (25/1 -56%)Royal Parade |
25/1(-56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Royal Parade 25/1, No more than a respectable effort when 9 lengths fourth of 7 in handicap at Goodwood (1m, good, 22/1) 13 days ago. Two 6f turf wins; not found his best for new yard and 1m not sure to suit. |
|||
3rd (1)  (9/2 +25%)Billy Mill |
9/2(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Billy Mill 9/2, Latest win at Newcastle in March. 11/2, creditable fourth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (7f) 39 days ago. Can give a good account. Having a good year on AW, including a good C&D run; should go well again. |
|||
4th (6)  (66/1 -100%)Rascallion |
66/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Rascallion 66/1, First run since leaving Nick Littmoden when twelfth of 18 in handicap at Newbury (1¼m, good, 100/1) on UK debut 61 days ago, ridden too aggressively. Three wins in France last year but dropped right away on British/stable debut in April. |
|||
5th (4)  (100/1 -900%)Restrict |
100/1(-900%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Restrict 100/1, Dual AW winner last year. Struggled in Dubai early this year but may fare better back in Britain. Best efforts over 7f; no show on dirt in Dubai this year; stamina still not assured. |
|||
6th (9)  (25/1 -285%)Valkyrian |
25/1(-285%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Valkyrian 25/1, Creditable seventh of 13 in handicap (12/1) at Windsor (1m, good to firm) on reappearance 17 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Back on a good mark. Two 1m wins last year; promising return at Windsor 17 days ago; has C&D form; contender. |
|||
7th (10)  (100/1 -2122%)Hey Lyla |
100/1(-2122%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Hey Lyla 100/1, C&D winner last autumn. Won 7-runner handicap (13/2) at Hamilton (9f, good to firm) on reappearance 14 days ago, pushed out. Should remain very competitive after only a 2 lb nudge. C&D winner last October; good win at Hamilton after an absence; needs more up in class. |
|||
8th (11)  (80/1 -967%)Boasty |
80/1(-967%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Boasty 80/1, Course winner. Latest win at Wolverhampton in March. 6/1, creditable third of 9 in handicap at this course (1¼m) 28 days ago. Not beaten far here (1m and 1m2f) on his last three starts; should go well once more. |
|||
9th (5)  (100/1 -300%)Bass Player |
100/1(-300%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Bass Player 100/1, Unreliable type. Seventeen runs since last win in 2022. Fourteenth of 20 in handicap (50/1) at York (7f, good) 34 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Losing run stands at 17 and he could only muster 14th of 20 at York latest; others safer. |
|||
10th (2)  (100/1 -400%)Assessment |
100/1(-400%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Assessment 100/1, 18/1 and hooded first time, last of 11 in handicap at Chepstow (7f, good to firm) 12 days ago. Something to prove at present. Not fired for Archie Watson; dangerous mark but want to see more before getting involved. |
|||
11th (7)  (80/1 -2186%)Running Star |
80/1(-2186%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Running Star 80/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Respectable third of 11 in handicap (9/4) at Pontefract (1m, good to soft) on reappearance 27 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. Cheekpieces on first time. Not taken lightly. Gelded since his encouraging handicap debut last month; cheekpieces now tried; unexposed. |
|||
12th (13)  (150/1 -200%)Bold Suitor |
150/1(-200%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Bold Suitor 150/1, C&D winner back in 2020. Also won in Hong Kong in 2022. Lost action and pulled up on British return 19 days ago. Can only watch after that. Pulled up when 50-1 for his stable debut at Lingfield 19 days ago; no appeal. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Hey Lyla kept on well to win by half a length at Hamilton and an added 2lb may not stop another big effort, though the drop back from 1m1f could see her have to settle for a place. BOASTY has won here three times and only went under by a nose and a short head in a photo last time out, so he may prove the one to beat. Running Star has been gelded since his Pontefract third and could improve in first-time cheekpieces.
VALKYRIAN shaped better than the result on her Windsor reappearance and is given a chance to build on that promise. The unexposed Running Star has a handy inside stall and is second choice ahead of Hey Lyla and the thriving Noodle Mission.
Running Star should go well but VALKYRIAN ran well in the face of adversity at Windsor on her return and can exploit a good mark.

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.
