---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (8) (3.5/1 +22%) Marsh Benham |
3.5/1(+22%) | (8) Marsh Benham 3.5/1, Bit below form sixth of 13 in handicap (9/1) at Bath (8f, good to soft) 25 days ago. Can make presence felt. Shaped pretty well on his comeback and is one of the more interesting runners. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (10) (7.5/1 +6%) Bantry |
7.5/1(+6%) | (10) Bantry 7.5/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, below form sixth of 12 in maiden at Dundalk (7f, 11/1). Off 7 months. First run for yard after leaving John Joseph Murphy. Market check advised. Failed to win in Ireland; market support preferable before he's considered. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (3.2/1 +9%) Eye Of The Water |
3.2/1(+9%) | (6) Eye Of The Water 3.2/1, Resumed winning ways when narrowly taking 12-runner handicap at Bath (8f, soft) 15 days ago. Just 3 lb higher now and should go well again. Has run well here a few times without winning; can't be any complaints about a 3lb rise. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (10/1 -100%) Caribou |
10/1(-100%) | (2) Caribou 10/1, 22/1, last of 10 in handicap at Goodwood (8f, good). Off 7 months. Best watched. Barely seen for this yard last year but is worth a look in the market at this lower level. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (5/1 +41%) Alyara |
5/1(+41%) | (5) Alyara 5/1, Respectable third of 12 in handicap (5/1) at Windsor (8.1f, good to soft). Off 7 months. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. This mark should be within range if ready to go back from seven months off; considered. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (12) (4.5/1 +25%) San Francisco Bay |
4.5/1(+25%) | (12) San Francisco Bay 4.5/1, Ended last campaign with solid second of 12 in handicap at Ffos Las (8f, soft, 12/1) in September. Fairly treated on return and warrants respect. Best efforts come after a recent outing but should be up to winning off this sort of mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (22/1 +33%) Always Fearless |
22/1(+33%) | (9) Always Fearless 22/1, 12¾ lengths ninth of 12 to Eye of The Water in handicap at Bath (8f, soft, 80/1) 15 days ago. Work to do. Three Polytrack wins to his name but is 0-18 on turf; twice behind Eye Of The Water lately. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (3) (28/1 -56%) Sisters In The Sky |
28/1(-56%) | (3) Sisters In The Sky 28/1, Last of 12 in handicap at Salisbury (6f, good to soft, 28/1) 12 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Blinkered for 1st time. Makes limited appeal. Perhaps blinkers will help but he's lost his way, including in two runs for this yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (1) (25/1 -178%) Sir Plato |
25/1(-178%) | (1) Sir Plato 25/1, 5-time course winner. 100/1, first run since leaving Rod Millman when ninth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 78 days ago, slowly away. Hard to fancy. New yard has hit some form in recent times and a good showing wouldn't surprise. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (7) (14/1 -40%) Into The Spotlight |
14/1(-40%) | (7) Into The Spotlight 14/1, Respectable sixth of 10 in minor event (33/1) at Chelmsford City (8f) 75 days ago. Makes turf debut. Hood back on. Not out of things. Needs to improve for the switch to turf (useful half-sister went well on slow ground). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (11) (125/1 -150%) Emerald Lady |
125/1(-150%) | (11) Emerald Lady 125/1, First run since leaving K. R. Burke when last of 13 in handicap (66/1) at Bath (8f, good to soft) 25 days ago. Others preferred. Drying weather would help but she'd be hard to recommend even then. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Last-time-out winner EYE OF THE WATER was victorious at Bath earlier in the month and a 3lb rise may not be enough to stop him from completing a double. The returning Alyara also makes appeal if picking up where she left off last season, while you couldn't rule out a big run from San Francisco Bay either. He gets in off a light weight and was second last time out at Ffos Las.
EYE OF THE WATER got back on the scoreboard at Bath earlier this month and still looks feasibly treated. He may be able to follow up. San Francisco Bay and Into The Spotlight look the likeliest dangers.
Eye Of The Water should go well but MARSH BENHAM will appreciate the drying weather following a decent comeback effort at Bath.

1st (7) (7/1 -133%) Profitable Dreams |
7/1(-133%) | (7) Profitable Dreams 7/1, Foaled March 26. €8,500 yearling, Profitable filly. Dam, 7f winner, half-sister to smart 1¼m winner (stayed 1½m) Izdiham. Fourth of 8 in minor event at Kempton (5f, 8/1) on debut 6 days ago. Yard cracking on with 2yos on turf; fading 4th on AW debut last week (5f). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (18/1 -64%) Smooth Silesie |
18/1(-64%) | (8) Smooth Silesie 18/1, Foaled March 25. €20,000 yearling, Smooth Daddy filly. Dam unraced haf-sister to useful US 2-y-o 6f minor stakes winner Surfside Tiara from family of Dewhurst and National Stakes winner Air Force Blue. Strong pedigree for sprinting; yard 3-11 with 2yos here; betting can give some clues. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (1.2/1 +60%) Mullins Beach |
1.2/1(+60%) | (3) Mullins Beach 1.2/1, Thrice-raced gelding. 6/1, second of 7 in maiden at Leicester (5f, soft) 3 days ago. Going the right way. About 2l ahead of newcomer Jolly Sailor at Bath; headed late on Saturday (5f, soft). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (150/1 -200%) Surface To Air |
150/1(-200%) | (4) Surface To Air 150/1, Twice-raced gelding. Last of 8 in minor event (100/1) at Salisbury (5f, good to soft) 12 days ago, slowly away. Visored for 1st time. Beaten 27l+ in two 5f novice events; best watched until going handicapping.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (3/1 +0%) Vidi Vici |
3/1(+0%) | (5) Vidi Vici 3/1, Foaled March 15. 10,000 gns yearling, Invincible Army gelding. Dam unraced out of smart winner up to 7f (2-y-o 5f winner) Ishvana, second in Irish 1000 Guineas. Yard 3-7 with 2yos on turf in 2023 and 14-50 with them here overall; interesting. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (28/1 +15%) Aquifolia |
28/1(+15%) | (6) Aquifolia 28/1, Foaled January 30. 3,000 gns foal, Belardo filly. Half-sister to several winners, including 11.6f winner Mickydee and 1m/9f winner Dutch Gal. Dam ran once. Dam bred five winners but this trip is likely to be too sharp on debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (6.5/1 +46%) Jolly Sailor |
6.5/1(+46%) | (2) Jolly Sailor 6.5/1, Foaled February 8. 1,000 gns foal, Adaay colt. Half-brother to 2-y-o 6f winner Boy Browning. 11/1, sixth of 8 in maiden at Bath (5f, soft) on debut 15 days ago. Needs big step forward. Unruly before Bath debut but shaped nicely before tiring into sixth; can improve. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (1) (33/1 -83%) Birkie Boy |
33/1(-83%) | (1) Birkie Boy 33/1, Foaled April 7. Kuroshio gelding. Dam lightly-raced half-sister to useful 6f-7.3f winner Thiswaycadeaux. Handy pedigree; yard has better record with 2yos on AW but in good form this month. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (9) (9/1 -64%) Zesty Lime |
9/1(-64%) | (9) Zesty Lime 9/1, Foaled April 7. Massaat filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including useful 5f-6f winner Cuban Breeze and 5f winner Heer We Go Again. Dam 2-y-o 5f winner. Fairly late foal but has a precocious pedigree; worth market check. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
MULLINS BEACH ran his best race to date when second at Leicester on Saturday and a reproduction of that performance may be enough to see him gain a first triumph. Profitable Dreams is a potential improver having finished fourth on her racecourse debut at Kempton last week and she's feared now switched to the turf. Vidi Vici makes most appeal of the newcomers and any market support would increase interest.
MULLINS BEACH has improved from run to run and another step forward might be enough to see him take this, though newcomers Zesty Lime and Vidi Vici are both bred to be sharp and market support for either should be noted.
Mullins Beach has good claims on his Saturday run but he wasn't far ahead of JOLLY SAILOR previously and the latter can improve.

1st (2) (5.5/1 +15%) Connie's Rose |
5.5/1(+15%) | (2) Connie's Rose 5.5/1, Course winner. 4/1, below form fourth of 12 in handicap at Windsor (6f, heavy) 22 days ago. Others more persuasive. Front-runs; won over 7f/6f here in 2022; useful 5f return (soft); not as good at 6f since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (3.6/1 +49%) Rhubarb |
3.6/1(+49%) | (8) Rhubarb 3.6/1, 3-time C&D winner. 20/1, respectable seventh of 15 in handicap at Bath (5f, soft) 15 days ago, nearest finish. Interesting off a good mark. Won 4 on good/quicker here in 2022; 5lb lower than latest of them; first run here in 2023. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (14) (3.2/1 +62%) Bama Lama |
3.2/1(+62%) | (14) Bama Lama 3.2/1, Sixteen runs since last win in 2021. Respectable fifth of 14 in handicap (6/1) at Leicester (6f, heavy) 17 days ago. Must improve. Acts well here; below best latest but of interest back here with H Doyle up for first time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (12) (28/1 +30%) Silver Diva |
28/1(+30%) | (12) Silver Diva 28/1, Remains a maiden after 23 Flat runs. 12/1, eleventh of 15 in handicap at Bath (5f, soft) 15 days ago. Maiden; involved in various handicaps at about 5f last summer; well held on return. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (9/1 -64%) Bluebell Time |
9/1(-64%) | (1) Bluebell Time 9/1, C&D winner. 5/1, respectable fourth of 15 in handicap at Bath (5f, soft) 15 days ago. Merits consideration. C&D winner on good to soft; fair 4th latest; should be very competitive. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (33/1 -83%) Red Allure |
33/1(-83%) | (7) Red Allure 33/1, Third of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 18/1) 14 days ago. Three 5f wins for previous yard; best run for new yard when close 3rd on AW latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (14/1 +0%) Peachey Carnehan |
14/1(+0%) | (4) Peachey Carnehan 14/1, Course winner. Creditable third of 9 in handicap (11/1) at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 38 days ago. Minimum trip likely to catch him out. Won over 6f here in September; held form well since; first 5f run since 2017. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (16/1 -33%) Fair And Square |
16/1(-33%) | (9) Fair And Square 16/1, Remains a maiden after 33 Flat runs. Seventh of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 20/1) 14 days ago. Hood back on, cheekpieces back on. Maiden who is often in the frame; down the weights since latest turf run; thereabouts. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (5) (20/1 -43%) Toplight |
20/1(-43%) | (5) Toplight 20/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in March. Creditable fourth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW, 2/1) 20 days ago. Five wins at 5f on AW; well held in his only 2 turf handicaps; first grass run since 2021. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (13) (22/1 +21%) Soldier's Son |
22/1(+21%) | (13) Soldier's Son 22/1, Remains a maiden after 34 Flat runs. Below form fifth of 12 in handicap at Windsor (6f, heavy, 33/1) 22 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Not easy to make a case for. Maiden; has course form at 6f; close up in only 5f handicap; this stiff test can help. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (3) (12/1 -9%) Cloud Cuckoo |
12/1(-9%) | (3) Cloud Cuckoo 12/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eighth of 10 in minor event at Kempton (6f, 33/1) 29 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Could do a lot better now. Showed promise in ordinary C&D event in September; worth market check on handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (6) (7/1 +22%) Fossos |
7/1(+22%) | (6) Fossos 7/1, 3-time C&D winner. 20/1, below form sixth of 15 in handicap at Bath (5f, soft) on return 15 days ago. Shortlist material back here despite wide draw. Three C&D wins in the last 12 months, on good and soft; better for recent reappearance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (11) (28/1 -27%) Good To Go |
28/1(-27%) | (11) Good To Go 28/1, Poor maiden. 5/1, last of 8 in handicap at Yarmouth (5.2f, soft) 21 days ago. Visor on 1st time. Improved for first-time visor when 3rd in April (5f); not as sharp next time; now visored. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
BLUEBELL TIME was far-from disgraced when fourth at Bath recently and she could take advantage of a 3lb lower mark here. On Edge finished a respectable third on his return to action at Windsor last month and this former course winner should not be taken lightly in this company. Red Allure ran well on the all-weather last time and completes the shortlist.
RHUBARB made hay here last term and gets the vote off a tempting mark after showing more at Bath. Fossos is another with a fine Chepstow record and is respected despite his high draw. Cloud Cuckoo could do a lot better now handicapping at a low level for Henry Candy.
Wide-open but course winner ON EDGE has had fewer chances than most and is worth a crack at a 5f handicap. Fossos may be next best.

1st (6) (6.5/1 +35%) Vape |
6.5/1(+35%) | (6) Vape 6.5/1, 28/1, creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f) 33 days ago. Mark unchanged and usually gives his running, so no surprise if this 6-y-o is on the premises. Two front-running wins on turf and AW in the autumn; may be shade high in weights now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (5/1 -11%) Macs Dilemma |
5/1(-11%) | (2) Macs Dilemma 5/1, C&D winner. Creditable fifth of 9 in handicap (12/1) at Brighton (7f, good) 24 days ago. That run will have blown away the cobwebs and he's of interest off 2 lb lower with cheekpieces refitted. Six wins on good/good to firm for yard, including over C&D; probably best at 7f now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (28/1 -155%) Cashew |
28/1(-155%) | (3) Cashew 28/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2021. 50/1, first run since leaving George Boughey when creditable third of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 12 days ago. Each-way chance returned to turf if able to build on that effort. Two 6f wins on soft as 2yo; mixed in 2022; down weights and good debut for yard this month. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (2/1 +73%) Carlton Banks |
2/1(+73%) | (9) Carlton Banks 2/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, ninth of 14 in handicap (7/1) at Killarney (8.3f, soft). Off 7 months and back down in trip. Needs to bounce back but it's worth remembering that he wasn't beaten far off an 18 lb higher mark in a big-field handicap at the Curragh last spring. Most of 2022 was a washout but eyecatching 6f return last April; this is easier. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (9/1 -125%) Rich Rhythm |
9/1(-125%) | (5) Rich Rhythm 9/1, Fourth of 7 in handicap at Windsor (5.1f, heavy, 5/2) 8 days ago, slowly away. Entitled to come on for that and could have a part to play if the ground dries out (best form to date on good to firm). Winner of 5f novice as 3yo; unexposed in handicaps; should have more to come. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (22/1 -22%) Gilt Edge |
22/1(-22%) | (7) Gilt Edge 22/1, C&D winner. 25/1, below form seventh of 12 in handicap at Salisbury (6f, good to soft) 12 days ago. Others more persuasive from a win perspective. C&D winner; all best form on good or quicker; soundly beaten on good to soft on return. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (5/1 -43%) Pinwheel |
5/1(-43%) | (4) Pinwheel 5/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2021. 4/1, good second of 6 in handicap at Brighton (6f, good) 13 days ago. Big player for in-form yard off the same mark. 7f winner in France; struggled in Britain but down weights and close up on last 2 starts. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (1) (8/1 +33%) Youarenotforgiven |
8/1(+33%) | (1) Youarenotforgiven 8/1, Twelfth of 14 in handicap at Kempton (8f, 12/1) when last seen in November, slowly away. Perhaps worth a crack at this trip (won over 7f on penultimate start) and not discounted, for all that his current mark demands improvement. Impressed dropped to 7f in October; another new trip; unraced on ground slower than good. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (11) (10/1 -33%) Flagman |
10/1(-33%) | (11) Flagman 10/1, Career best when winning 8-runner handicap (28/1) at Kempton (6f) 13 days ago. 3 lb rise fair but needs to prove that he can perform to a similar level now returned to turf (well held both starts here in 2022). Well-bred 5yo; suited by drop to 6f when overcoming difficulties; open to improvement. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (8) (150/1 -275%) Desert |
150/1(-275%) | (8) Desert 150/1, 40/1, last of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f). Off 10 months and it's probably best to look elsewhere. Won 6f handicap for R Hannon as 2yo; well held 2 runs for new yard in 2022; off since July. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (10) (200/1 -203%) John O'groats |
200/1(-203%) | (10) John O'groats 200/1, 100/1, first run since leaving Michael Bell when last of 7 in minor event at Lingfield (10f, AW) 69 days ago, going off too hard. Significantly down in trip and he's readily passed over. Very mixed for M Bell; plenty to prove back at 6f; needs weight off his back. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Narrowly denied at Brighton last time out, PINWHEEL can gain compensation and gain a first win in the UK. The five-year-old has improved since having wind surgery and he gets the vote ahead of the Irish-raider Carlton Banks and Rich Rhythm, who could improve for going back up in trip. Cashew and Flagman are capable of being in the shake-up as well.
Though nearer last than first on the majority of his appearances last term, Irish-raider CARLTON BANKS is nevertheless interesting here off a much-reduced mark. The 6-y-o wasn't beaten at all far when sixth in a 22-runner handicap at the Curragh off 18 lb higher last spring (on the back of a similar absence from which he is returning to action here), and his yard is 5-11 with horses aged 4+ on turf in Britain in recent seasons. Pinwheel and Macs Dilemma rate the main dangers.
Well-connected Flagman has more to offer at 6f but CASHEW has less to prove on softish ground and is quite well treated now.

1st (6) (7/1 -75%) Romanovich |
7/1(-75%) | (6) Romanovich 7/1, 9/2, good second of 9 in handicap at Brighton (7f, good) 13 days ago. Cheekpieces on first time. Less exposed than the majority of these. Considered. Lightly raced compared to the rest and open to bit more improvement in first-time headgear. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (2.25/1 +18%) Bomb Squad |
2.25/1(+18%) | (3) Bomb Squad 2.25/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in December. 13/2, good third of 15 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, heavy) 24 days ago. Expected to be bang there. Does most racing now over 6f but is fine over this extra furlong; will rightly be popular. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (1.38/1 +72%) Lockdown Lass |
1.38/1(+72%) | (7) Lockdown Lass 1.38/1, One win from 24 Flat runs. Seventeen runs since last win in 2021. Creditable third of 11 in handicap at Thirsk (7f, soft, 4/1) on reappearance 42 days ago. Looks competitive on form. Made a fair comeback six weeks ago; 1lb lower today and capable at this level. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (28/1 +44%) Kinz |
28/1(+44%) | (2) Kinz 28/1, Last of 14 in handicap (80/1) at this course (1m, good to firm) on sole 2022 start. Returns for a new trainer. Could only consider if backed. Best effort came on fast ground and she's entitled to need this run for her new yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (28/1 -40%) Moveonup |
28/1(-40%) | (8) Moveonup 28/1, Latest win at Chelmsford in January. Respectable fifth of 9 at Brighton (7f, good, 25/1) back on turf 13 days ago. Not a bad effort back from a break last time (missed the kick) behind Romanovich. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (6.5/1 -63%) Madrinho |
6.5/1(-63%) | (1) Madrinho 6.5/1, Unreliable type. Course winner. Sixteen runs since last win in 2021. Good second of 11 in handicap at Brighton (6f, good, 15/2) 14 days ago, nearest finish. Respected. Course winner who's fine on any ground; goes on the shortlist. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (33/1 -725%) Dodgy Bob |
33/1(-725%) | (4) Dodgy Bob 33/1, This veteran has notched a pair of wins over 7f at Wolverhampton this year. Most of his recent good efforts have come on AW but he enjoyed plenty of success on turf earlier in his career. Ran well here a few times without winning, so is one to consider back from seven weeks off. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (5) (28/1 -12%) Red Bravo |
28/1(-12%) | (5) Red Bravo 28/1, Two wins from 48 Flat runs. Twenty five runs since last win in 2020. 50/1, bit below form seventh of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f), slowly away. Off 92 days. Back down in trip. Yard has been quiet of late; has gone well fresh but others appeal more. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (10) (22/1 +0%) Nemorum |
22/1(+0%) | (10) Nemorum 22/1, Remains a maiden after 16 starts. 28/1, seventh of 9 in handicap at Catterick (6f, heavy) when last seen in October. Plenty to find on form. Best effort came first time out last year but he's a regressive maiden. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (9) (50/1 -25%) Epeius |
50/1(-25%) | (9) Epeius 50/1, Nineteen runs since last win in 2020. Off since a poor run at Newcastle in January. Others arrive with more pressing claims. Can go well fresh but he's getting on and been on the downgrade for a while. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
The form of BOMB SQUAD's most recent placed effort at Thirsk has worked out extremely well and stepping back up in trip may see him regain the winning thread. A winner of two of his last four starts, Dodgy Bob can give him the most to think about, along with Romanovich, who was narrowly denied at Brighton last time. Others to note include Lockdown Lass, Madrinho and Moveonup.
ROMANOVICH has fewer convictions than most of these and is given a chance to build on his improved second at Brighton last time. Bomb Squad, Madrinho and the consistent Lockdown Lass are others to consider.
The only one open to any improvement in a field full of veterans, ROMANOVICH gets the nod. Bomb Squad is second choice.

Margaret's Fuchsia |
(6) (11/1 -10%)11/1(-10%) | (6) Margaret's Fuchsia 11/1, Fair maiden. 17/2, fourth of 6 in handicap at Leicester (7f, soft) 3 days ago. Maiden who's made the running a couple of times; had plenty of chances; headgear off. |

1st (1) (6.5/1 -63%) Way To Amarillo |
6.5/1(-63%) | (1) Way To Amarillo 6.5/1, 11/10, showed a bit of improvement when winning 13-runner event at Deauville (6.5f) in December, keeping on well. Makes handicap/turf debut and worth a market check on return. Ran only on the AW last year; needs more again for switch to turf off this sort of mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (2/1 +33%) Time's Eye |
2/1(+33%) | (2) Time's Eye 2/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Fourth of 9 in maiden (11/2) at Newmarket (7f, good to soft) on return 26 days ago. Makes handicap debut and she could do better. Half-sister to a good few useful winners; fair comeback and open to improvement. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (1.88/1 +50%) Puntarelle |
1.88/1(+50%) | (3) Puntarelle 1.88/1, 85/40, didn't need to improve to win 12-runner minor event at Chelmsford City (7f) 40 days ago, just holding on from subsequent winner. More to come now handicapping. More to come once she learns to settle, which she'll need to in today's small field. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (3/1 +33%) Silver Nightfall |
3/1(+33%) | (4) Silver Nightfall 3/1, Won 5-runner handicap (6/5) at Newcastle (8f) 63 days ago by 1¼ lengths from Margaret's Fuchsia, pushed out. Can go well again. Won't mind the drop back from 1m; a 3lb rise looks fair and she's shortlisted. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Puntarelle has been in good form on the all-weather and she can go well on her handicap debut, but if TIME'S EYE improves for her first start of the season, she could be the one. Only beaten a head by Karsavina last October, who has raced in Group company since, which suggests that a mark of 79 could prove generous. Ivy Avenue intrigues over this trip after two runs over a mile and a quarter
IVY AVENUE was a fair triple winner on the Flat for Jim Bolger and could have more to offer for Mick Appleby. She takes on a field of 3-y-os here and could be the way to go. Chelmsford-winner Puntarelle is fancied as the main danger.
Today's drop from 1m should suit the strong-travelling SILVER NIGHTFALL (nap). The main danger is Time's Eye.

1st (4) (2.25/1 +36%) Sympathise |
2.25/1(+36%) | (4) Sympathise 2.25/1, Lightly-raced winner. 7/1, career best when winning 13-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 21 days ago, responding well. Nudged up just 2 lb and likely to be in the mix if able to reproduce that form now switched to turf. Different proposition handicapping for new yard and hard to rule out if taking to turf. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (9/1 -227%) Letter Of The Law |
9/1(-227%) | (1) Letter Of The Law 9/1, 5/2, improved on recent efforts to win 7-runner handicap at Brighton (8f, good) 13 days ago. 4 lb rise could have been worse and he's versatile ground-wise, so has more going for him than many of these rivals. Up 4lb and could be hard to catch if getting to the front back in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (25/1 -56%) Deacs Delight |
25/1(-56%) | (6) Deacs Delight 25/1, Remains a maiden after 18 Flat runs. 4½ lengths sixth of 9 to Fact Or Fable in handicap at Brighton (7f, good, 15/2) 13 days ago. Plenty to find on form. Record of 0-18 and last-time-out sixth to Fact Or Fable are enough to give him a swerve. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (8/1 -78%) Fact Or Fable |
8/1(-78%) | (5) Fact Or Fable 8/1, Won 9-runner handicap at Brighton (7f, good, 9/2) 13 days ago, driven out. 3 lb rise fair enough and he was runner-up twice here from 3 visits in 2022, so there is certainly cause for optimism, for all this his strike rate on turf (1-26) is very modest. Has gone well here without winning but doesn't look an obvious one to follow up. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (9/1 +10%) Latent Heat |
9/1(+10%) | (3) Latent Heat 9/1, Temperamental sort. Sixth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 6/1) 17 days ago, missing break. Others make more appeal. Major claims on sole course run but is hard to fancy on what we've seen of late. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (3.33/1 +52%) Stickyourneckout |
3.33/1(+52%) | (8) Stickyourneckout 3.33/1, Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. Fifth of 13 in handicap at Sligo (5.7f, soft, 16/1) 16 days ago. Step back up in trip should help and not ruled out here off 2 lb lower for an Irish yard that does well with its runners (particularly horses aged 4+ on turf) on these shores. Irish maiden; did good late work into fifth over 5.7f on return; watch the market. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (5/1 +58%) Lilandra |
5/1(+58%) | (2) Lilandra 5/1, Course winner. Sixth of 8 in handicap (20/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 14 days ago. Needs to bounce back but she evidently goes well here (course form figures read 732351). Still, others preferred. Definite claims if not getting into an early battle with Letter Of The Law. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (50/1 -52%) Artemisia Gentile |
50/1(-52%) | (9) Artemisia Gentile 50/1, Last of 7 in handicap (50/1) at Yarmouth (7f, good) 14 days ago. 3 lb 'wrong' at the weights and it's easy enough to look elsewhere. Return looked as if it was needed; a leap of faith would be required to support her today. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (7) (12/1 -33%) Won Love |
12/1(-33%) | (7) Won Love 12/1, Fifth of 11 in handicap at Brighton (7f, good, 18/1) 24 days ago and, all things considered, he's likely to find a few too good once more. Recent AW efforts were not his best; first run on turf for a while was only okay last time. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
SYMPATHISE ran on well over a furlong shorter to win by a neck at Wolverhampton off 2lb lower last month, and the added furlong may help the lightly-raced mare to negate her rise in the handicap. Fact Or Fable seems an obvious rival with two of his four wins coming over this trip, including last time out at Brighton, and he won't be stopping having scored over further. The booking of Hollie Doyle for Won Love is a positive and he is another to note.
LETTER OF THE LAW did the job well under a typically positive ride when resuming winnings ways over a mile at Brighton recently and, with neither a 4 lb rise nor the drop back to 7f of any great concern, he is taken to follow up. Fellow last-time-out winners Sympathise and Fact Or Fable are feared most, in that order of preference. Also worth a mention is Irish-raider Stickyourneckout, who should benefit from the return to this trip.
Letter Of The Law and LILANDRA (both front-runners) appeal most, assuming they don't scupper each other.

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.
