1st (1)  (7/2 -100%)Asktheboss |
7/2(-100%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Asktheboss 7/2, €70,000 foal, 55,000 gns yearling, Dandy Man colt. Brother to British/Canadian 2-y-o 6f-1m winner La Pelosa and half-brother to 2-y-o 5f winner Melayu Kingdom. Dam unraced. 15/2, showed good speed when fourth of 11 in novice at York (6f, good) on debut 30 days ago. Likely to improve and player. Shaped well when under 5l fourth of 11 in novice at York; one for the shortlist. |
|||
2nd (5)  (9/2 +25%)The Flying Seagull |
9/2(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) The Flying Seagull 9/2, Ran with promise when third of 9 in maiden over C&D on debut but failed to progress from that at Goodwood 3 weeks ago. Failed to improve as anticipated after pleasing C&D debut, but not ruled out by any means. |
|||
3rd (11)  (9/2 +0%)Thecoffeepoddotco |
9/2(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Thecoffeepoddotco 9/2, 42,000 gns Sergei Prokofiev filly. Dam 5f-7f winner. Similar form both starts, fourth of 12 in maiden at Lingfield (7f, good to firm, 7/2) 16 days ago, finding test too much. Looks a sprinter for now and remains capable of better. Faded over 7f last time and this drop back to 6f looks ideal; may well take a step forward. |
|||
4th (3)  (5/1 -82%)Death Or Glory |
5/1(-82%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Death Or Glory 5/1, €45,000 yearling, Kodiac colt. Brother to 2-y-o 5f winner Lady Fanditha and half-brother to 2-y-o 5.5f/6f winner She's A Gambler. Dam Italian 2-y-o 5f winner. Second of 5 in maiden (5/1) at Hamilton (5f, soft) on debut 17 days ago, missing break. Up in trip. May well do better. Good late headway after slow start when second at Hamilton; serious contender. |
|||
5th (4)  (9/2 +10%)Saxonia |
9/2(+10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Saxonia 9/2, Similar form both starts, fourth of 6 in novice at Yarmouth (6f, soft, 11/2) 24 days ago, pulling hard. Remains with potential. Has shown speed and some waywardness so far; should go well from a stall near the rail. |
|||
6th (6)  (40/1 -100%)Andalprofit |
40/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Andalprofit 40/1, Foaled April 27. €8,000 yearling, 30,000 gns 2-y-o, Profitable gelding. Brother to 6f winner Fletcher's Flight and half-brother to winner abroad by Prince of Lir. Dam, 5f winner, half-sister to useful 7f-11f winner Autumn Blades. Cost 30,000gns at the breeze-ups; stable has just a 7% strike-rate with its 2yos. |
|||
7th (9)  (28/1 +58%)Frankies Dream |
28/1(+58%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Frankies Dream 28/1, Foaled April 20. €5,500 yearling, €18,000 2-y-o, Belardo colt. Dam unraced out of smart winner up to 12.5f (2-y-o 7f winner) Sea of Heartbreak. Rare 2yo runner from mainly jumps stable; probably best watched unless strong in market. |
|||
8th (12)  (50/1 +0%)Eva's Eyes |
50/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Eva's Eyes 50/1, 22,000 gns yearling, Harry Angel filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including 2-y-o 6f winner Reward Smile and 6f winner Pure Charmer. Dam sprint maiden. 20/1, fourth of 6 in novice at Lingfield (5f, good) on debut 14 days ago. Up in trip. Has plenty of speed in her pedigree but didn't show much on debut at Lingfield. |
|||
9th (2)  (66/1 -32%)Barmyblade |
66/1(-32%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Barmyblade 66/1, Twice-raced maiden. 50/1, seventh of 8 in novice event at Beverley (5f, good to firm) 32 days ago. Up in trip. Modest form at best at Ripon (soft) and Beverley (good to firm); plenty more needed. |
|||
10th (10)  (28/1 +15%)One More Guinness |
28/1(+15%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) One More Guinness 28/1, Foaled March 30. €5,000 foal, €7,000 yearling, €5,000 2-y-o, Arizona colt. Dam 6f winner (including at 2 yrs). 5,000euros purchase at breeze-ups; newcomer by Coventry winner Arizona; stable runs two. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
ASKTHEBOSS displayed plenty of early speed on his racecourse debut when fourth at York and that could be used to his advantage from a wider draw than ideal. Death Or Glory ran well on his first start to finish second at Hamilton, but the concern would be the fact he was slowly away from the stalls and Richard Fahey's colt will need to be a lot sharper in the early stages. Thecoffeepoddotco rates best of the rest.
ASKTHEBOSS showed good speed when fourth at York on debut last month and that asset should count for plenty around here. Death Or Glory showed promise when coming through for second at Hamilton and is feared from stall 1, with Thecoffeepoddotco another to consider back down in trip.
The suggestion in an open event is ASKTHEBOSS who shaped well behind a couple of useful prospects on his debut at York.

1st (6)  (4/1 +20%)Copper Knight |
4/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Copper Knight 4/1, Well into the veteran stage but has been placed in C&D and York class 2 handicaps in recent weeks. 4 lb below last successful mark and 3-time C&D winner (including this race in 2022) looks poised for a big run from stall 2. Took this in 2022; good York third latest from 4lb out of h'cap; player off proper mark. |
|||
2nd (5)  (11/1 -38%)Dickieburd |
11/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Dickieburd 11/1, Not so good the last twice but split subsequent winners at Nottingham before that and made all in a C&D event as a 2-y-o. Yard going well and he lurks on a tempting mark. Interesting. Good Nottingham second in May but he has twice failed to back it up; sort to bounce back. |
|||
3rd (8)  (15/2 -25%)Curious Rover |
15/2(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Curious Rover 15/2, Enjoyed a productive 2-y-o campaign, winning twice and placed 5 times from 7 appearances, and best effort this term having edged down the weights when fifth in the Epsom "3-Y-O Dash", helping force pace for long way. Down another 2 lb taking on his elders now. One to consider. Back on track when fifth at Epsom two weeks ago; he can make his presence felt again. |
|||
4th (7)  (40/1 -264%)Never Dark |
40/1(-264%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Never Dark 40/1, Three-time winner over 5f last year who has probably needed his 2 runs back this term. Made all off 82 at Haydock for latest success and now having first run at a course that will suit his style. Led for a long way when 12th at Hamilton latest; interesting from a handy-looking mark now. |
|||
5th (4)  (28/1 -250%)Wen Moon |
28/1(-250%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Wen Moon 28/1, Did well in the mud last season, winning twice, but has looked awkward when down the field last 2 starts on the back of an encouraging reappearance. Tongue tie goes on now which may help. Has twice failed to build on an encouraging Pontefract reappearance third. |
|||
6th (9)  (7/1 +0%)Reigning Profit |
7/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Reigning Profit 7/1, Having a busy campaign and holding form well in 5f handicaps, sticking on at Hamilton a fortnight ago. That has the look of a good race (impressive winner ran to a stunning 114 Timeform rating) so he's got to be feared down 2 lb from stall 1. First run at Chester. Solid sixth at Hamilton 13 days ago; shortlisted off 2lb lower mark from number one berth. |
|||
7th (3)  (80/1 -900%)Paws For Thought |
80/1(-900%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Paws For Thought 80/1, Three-time winner over further here and ran well on return at Southwell. Not so good back on turf twice since though and drops to 5f refitted with headgear now. Might find things happening too quickly. Arrives below par, eighth at Hamilton nine days ago; cheekpieces refitted with more needed. |
|||
8th (1)  (16/1 -33%)Arecibo |
16/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Arecibo 16/1, Unreliable individual who returned to form when third at Doncaster a fortnight ago. Losing run now stretches back 3 years and 31 starts though and he's making a belated first visit to Chester. It's now 31 outings since his last success so others appeal more on this occasion. |
|||
9th (2)  (9/1 -50%)Radio Goo Goo |
9/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Radio Goo Goo 9/1, Five-time winner over 6f (2-2 here) last year when also fourth at Royal Ascot. Having slipped down the weights got his head back in front at Ripon last month and ran well when third at Haydock last week, left alone in front for a long time. Will need some luck from stall 10 back at 5f. Won at Ripon and solid third at Haydock since; can go well again despite her high draw. |
|||
10th (11)  (250/1 -1983%)Glory Fighter |
250/1(-1983%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Glory Fighter 250/1, Successful in the mud at Thirsk in April and went close at Catterick last time. This is tougher although he split Copper Knight and Count d'Orsay in this 2 years back. Back to form when second at Catterick 15 days ago; much respected off an unchanged mark. |
|||
11th (10)  (200/1 -2400%)Count D'orsay |
200/1(-2400%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Count D'orsay 200/1, 3 lb below last winning mark (handicap over bit further here last summer) and back to form when going close at Hamilton last week. Clearly weighted to strike although this is tougher and he's drawn widest. C&D scorer; neck second at Hamilton latest; drawn widest of all but not taken lightly. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
COPPER KNIGHT won this race in 2022 and went very close at the May meeting when just denied by an improving type in Democracy Dilemma. The 10-year-old finished third at York most recently and boasts the advantage of being drawn in stall two, which gives him every chance of getting back in the winner's enclosure. His stablemate Count D'Orsay remains on a very tempting mark and is respected, while Arecibo and Radio Goo Goo are others with viable credentials.
3-time C&D winner COPPER KNIGHT retains bags of enthusiasm and ability judged on his placed efforts in class 2 events here and at York last month and is taken to land the spoils from stall 2. Dickieburd and Never Dark are a couple of interesting rivals.
The vote goes to veteran COPPER KNIGHT who has shown plenty of his old dash of late and can now add to his 2022 success in this event

(2)  (11/1 -193%)City Streak |
11/1(-193%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) City Streak 11/1, Gained second C&D win when edging out Box To Box last month, just about better than ever in the process. Up 3 lb and effort flattened out at Epsom a fortnight ago. Enhanced good C&D record when edging out Box To Box last month; well held at Epsom since. |
|||
(9)  (35/1 -40%)Desert Emperor |
35/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Desert Emperor 35/1, Missed 2023 having changed hands for £25,000 but shaped as though retaining ability when mid-field on reappearance at Wetherby 12 days ago. Likely to step forward on that. Hinted at retaining on recent comeback for new yard; worth a look in betting. |
|||
(11)  (66/1 -164%)United Front |
66/1(-164%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) United Front 66/1, Successful from 3 lb higher for Mick Appleby last summer. Sent hurdling by new yard last month (given a considerate introduction) and he's well weighted on his best form back on the level. More miss than hit on AW over the winter but fit from a recent hurdle run for new yard. |
|||
1st (5)  (12/1 +14%)Loyal Touch |
12/1(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Loyal Touch 12/1, Off the mark for the season in 10-runner handicap over this trip at Newcastle in March. Runner-up 3 times since and easy to excuse Epsom effort a fortnight ago. Second over C&D in May; below form at Epsom latest, albeit one day after his Ripon 2nd. |
|||
2nd (1)  (9/2 +18%)Box To Box |
9/2(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Box To Box 9/2, Chester regular, gaining both 2023 wins over this C&D, including this corresponding race. Placed 3 times in Bahrain during the winter and just about better than ever when a nose second at City Streak here a month ago. Won this last year; another good run over C&D when edged out by City Streak latest. |
|||
3rd (8)  (13/8 +41%)Hosanna Power |
13/8(+41%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Hosanna Power 13/8, Has never stood much racing but he's in excellent hands and improved a chunk when making a winning handicap debut at Newbury last month. Looks one to keep on the right side. Fended off a next-time-out winner on 1m2f Newbury handicap debut; likely more to come. |
|||
4th (3)  (10/1 +0%)King's Code |
10/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) King's Code 10/1, Real success story for his yard, adding more wins at Southwell and Kempton at the beginning of the year. Proved beyond doubt he's still every bit as big a force on turf as all-weather when bumping into a Group-race bound winner at York last month before a rare blip at Epsom. Course winner over shorter; good second at York (1m2f) last month but below par since. |
|||
5th (10)  (12/1 -9%)Woodstock City |
12/1(-9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Woodstock City 12/1, Successful twice in France last year. Hasn't hit the ground running for this yard but he did take a step back in the right drection from his reduced mark when third to City Streak and Box To Box over C&D. Better when third to City Streak and Box To Box over C&D latest; needs to build on that. |
|||
6th (6)  (5/1 +29%)Glam De Vega |
5/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Glam De Vega 5/1, Twice a winner in 2022, including on handicap debut at Hamilton (9.2f). Missed all of 2023 and not judged too harshly on last month's Newbury return (hooded) denied a clear run. In top hands and he's of interest. Travelled well long way on return from long absence and could take a big step forward. |
|||
7th (4)  (16/1 -129%)Gaassee |
16/1(-129%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Gaassee 16/1, Hasn't stood much racing in recent times and heavy defeats both starts for this yard having left William Haggas. Eased further 2 lb and clearly very dangerous if the headgear has the desired effect. Not enough in two runs for new yard to fancy strongly so headgear needs to give him a lift. |
|||
8th (7)  (33/1 -65%)Autumn Festival |
33/1(-65%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Autumn Festival 33/1, Prolific in 2022 and capitalised on a drop in the weights when adding to his tally at Beverley last September. Performed well above market expectations (sent off at 50/1) when third on return/debut for new yard in the Thirsk Hunt Cup but well held both outings since. Below par since reappearance third and this front-runner's stamina is far from assured. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
HOSANNA POWER made a successful handicap bow at Newbury when getting the better of a rival who has since franked the form by winning at Kempton last week. Given plenty of time by Sir Michael Stoute, the son of Frankel is expected to have no problem with handling a 4lb rise. City Streak (first), Box To Box (second) and Woodstock City (third) were closely matched over C&D last month and the trio are expected to be in the mix once again.
HOSANNA POWER is just the sort of low-mileage 4-y-o his leading yard excels with, and having beaten a subsequent winner on last month's return, he looks well weighted. City Streak and Box To Box finished first and second over C&D recently and are feared most, the latter perhaps the bigger threat this time.
There's likely more to come from lightly raced 4yo HOSANNA POWER (nap), who can make light of a 4lb rise for Newbury.

(10)  (12/1 +0%)Burdett |
12/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Burdett 12/1, Progressive last year, successful at Ffos Las on his second outing. Plenty to like about his efforts this year and took a big step forward to get off the mark for the season in a 19-runner handicap at York (7f, good) 3 weeks ago. 6 lb rise to contend with and a wide draw complicates things. Decisive winner over 7f at York latest; 6lb rise fair but he has the worst of the draw. |
|||
1st (5)  (8/1 +27%)Love Billy Boy |
8/1(+27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Love Billy Boy 8/1, Has made a solid start to this season, again running creditably when fourth of 8 at Doncaster (7f, good) just over 2 weeks ago. Drawn wide and more is needed to add to his debut success last year. No win since debut but consistent in defeat in 7f handicaps in recent months. |
|||
2nd (12)  (16/1 +0%)Pitney |
16/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Pitney 16/1, Mehmas colt who confirmed promise of first 2 starts when running out a good winner of a Wolverhampton novice (7f) back in November. Ran poorly on return/handicap debut at Newmarket (7f, good) last month so will need to leave that well behind. AW novice win last year but well held on handicap/turf debut in May. |
|||
3rd (2)  (6/1 +25%)Blue Prince |
6/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Blue Prince 6/1, Enjoyed a productive spell on the AW for this yard over the winter and has come right back to form on his last 2 starts returned to 7f, just beaten by a less exposed pair at Goodwood (good to firm) 3 weeks ago. Should remain competitive from an unchanged mark. Good placed efforts in strong races at York and Goodwood last month; should go well again. |
|||
4th (14)  (66/1 -65%)Misemerald |
66/1(-65%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Misemerald 66/1, Landed maiden/novice events at Beverley/Ayr last summer but no better than mid-field in nurseries and handicaps since, 4¼ lengths sixth of 19 to Burdett at York (7f, good) 3 weeks ago. Looks a tough ask from 5 lb out of the weights. Maiden/novice winner last summer but sixth is best she's managed in four handicaps since. |
|||
5th (11)  (22/1 -57%)Expert Choice |
22/1(-57%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Expert Choice 22/1, Looks the type to do better as a 3-y-o and shaped a bit better than the result upped in trip after 9 months off when third of 8 in handicap at Musselburgh (9f, good) a fortnight ago, showing an awkward head carriage under pressure (wore first-time blinkers). Drawn wide so others look stronger. Creditable reappearance third at Musselburgh but the draw hasn't been kind to him here. |
|||
6th (3)  (20/1 -67%)Sailthisshipalone |
20/1(-67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Sailthisshipalone 20/1, Made it third time lucky in minor event at Thirsk (7f, good to soft) last August, proving game. Raced keenly next time, but quickly resumed progress when runner-up in a valuable minor event (form working out) at York (7f, heavy) in October. Gelded since and fancied to feature on return. Promising at 2 and returns from eight months off (gelded) with his yard going great guns. |
|||
7th (6)  (11/2 +54%)Teraabb |
11/2(+54%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Teraabb 11/2, Stepped up on his juvenile form when making a successful handicap debut/reappearance at Newbury (7f, good to soft) in April. Shaped better than the bare result upped to 1m for the first time at Ascot just over 5 weeks ago (left with plenty to do) so he's worth another chance from stall 1. Got up close home on 7f Newbury handicap and better than result at Ascot since. |
|||
8th (4)  (33/1 -106%)Princess Alex |
33/1(-106%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Princess Alex 33/1, Has taken her form up a notch this spring, scoring at Haydock in April before following up just over a week later at Beverley (7.4f, good). Ran as well as could've been expected when sixth in a listed race a fortnight ago but should make more of a splash back in a handicap. Winner of two 7f handicaps this spring but raised another 9lb for latest Listed sixth. |
|||
9th (7)  (6/1 +25%)Brunel Nation |
6/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Brunel Nation 6/1, Much improved when winning handicaps at Chelmsford (6f) and Newmarket (7f) in recent months (second past the post at latter but awarded the race after suffering interference). Unable to complete the hat-trick but continued in good form when fourth at Goodwood 3 weeks ago so he's shortlisted. Progressive; not seen to best effect at Goodwood latest and probably still on a good mark. |
|||
10th (13)  (25/1 -25%)Secret World |
25/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Secret World 25/1, Got off the mark second time up at Wolverhampton last October (strong form) and made a solid return to action when third at Carlisle last month. However, she ran poorly making handicap debut at Haydock (8.2f, good to firm) last week (held back by attitude) so it's easy to look elsewhere. AW maiden winner but disappointed on Haydock handicap debut last weekend. |
|||
11th (8)  (5/1 +44%)Monfrid |
5/1(+44%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Monfrid 5/1, Runner-up twice on AW last autumn and had more in hand a ½ length winning margin suggests in a 7f Catterick novice on reappearance. Showed improved form from a very tough opening mark when fifth of 13 at Goodwood (7f, good to firm) 3 weeks ago and well drawn here, he's capable of better still. Good fifth in warm race on Goodwood handicap debut; more to come after four starts. |
|||
12th (9)  (33/1 -106%)Purefoy |
33/1(-106%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Purefoy 33/1, Showed more than previously when second on qualifying run at Lingfield (1m) in October. Gelded/after 5 months off, took another significant step forward when making a winning handicap debut at Lingfield (7f, AW) in April but shaped as if amiss at Newmarket a month later. Won on AW handicap debut and had an excuse (lost action) when last at Newmarket since. |
|||
13th (1)  (8/1 -78%)Witness Stand |
8/1(-78%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Witness Stand 8/1, Course debut winner who showed useful form later at 2, culminating with a second in Newmarket Group 3 in November. Last of 5 in a 1m Kempton conditions race won by Notable Speech on reappearance but stepped up from that when runner-up over C&D (good) last month. Tricky draw to negotiate, Good second in C&D handicap last month but stall 12 has the potential to make life awkward. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
WITNESS STAND finished second to a classy colt over C&D last month and Tom Clover's gelding would appear to hold strong claims from an unchanged mark, for all that a wide draw is far from ideal. Monfrid, berthed well in stall two, looks a likely pace angle and, if building on his recent handicap bow, he can be involved. Expert Choice made a pleasing return to action when third in the Edinburgh Cup at Musselburgh a fortnight ago and is considered now eased 1lb in the ratings.
An ultra-competitive feature in which the suggestion is TERAABB, who shaped better than the bare result when mid-field at Ascot just over 5 weeks ago and Charlie Fellowes' gelding is worth another chance having landed the plum stall. Monfrid continues to show signs of inexperience, but William Haggas' colt is improving so gets the nod for second, with Sailthisshipalone and Burdett another couple fancied to go well, too.
The progressive BRUNEL NATION can get back to winning ways. Monfrid, narrowly behind the selection at Goodwood, is second choice.

(11)  (22/1 -10%)Teqany |
22/1(-10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Teqany 22/1, Useful handicap hurdler who tasted success twice in staying handicaps on Flat in 2021. Ran a cracker when runner-up in Grade 2 Elite Hurdle on final outing that year but lines up here having been absent since. Betting should prove a useful guide. Never better on Flat or over hurdles when last seen but that was in 2021; rain a worry. |
|||
1st (5)  (4/1 +56%)Rich Belief |
4/1(+56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Rich Belief 4/1, Irish raider who shaped better than bare result on return at Navan in April and went down as an unlucky loser when third in a C&D handicap 3 weeks ago, going well when shuffled back over 2f out. He's very much one to consider on the back of that. Close C&D third last time, from well off the pace and beaten just a length, short of room. |
|||
2nd (1)  (13/2 +35%)Wind Your Neck In |
13/2(+35%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Wind Your Neck In 13/2, Capitalised on a steadily easing mark when making final start of 2023 a winning one at Newmarket (12f, soft) in November, finding plenty. Easy to back and never threatened on return at Southwell (11.1f) in March but return to turf a plus and he's unexposed at this trip. Last-gasp win at Newmarket (heavy) last November on second attempt at 1m4f. |
|||
3rd (8)  (9/1 -29%)Percy Jones |
9/1(-29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Percy Jones 9/1, Ran well on a couple of occasions here last term prior to adding to his tally at Wolverhampton (14f) in August. Returned to action in good heart, creditable fifth of 10 in handicap at this C&D (soft) 21 days ago, faring best of those ridden prominently. Comes here operating from last winning mark. 0-5 at Chester but 2nd in this last year and on the heels of two of these over C&D latest. |
|||
4th (2)  (11/2 -83%)Plus Point |
11/2(-83%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Plus Point 11/2, Won first 2 starts in handicaps last summer and matched her reappearance form when resuming winning ways in 7-runner Doncaster handicap (14.5f) 2 weeks ago, rallying to lead again final 100 yds having been headed. Could be more to come back at this trip. Made most and rallied in fine style to win over 14.5f at Doncaster (good); has won on soft. |
|||
5th (3)  (11/2 -10%)Zimmerman |
11/2(-10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Zimmerman 11/2, Edged ahead late on when cashing in off reduced mark at Haydock (16.2f) last August. Not disgraced when fourth on return at Ripon and this looks less demanding than his latest Haydock assignment 3 weeks ago. Haydock run three weeks ago was disappointing; best efforts on softer than good. |
|||
6th (7)  (10/1 -67%)Sharp Distinction |
10/1(-67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Sharp Distinction 10/1, Dual winner on turf/AW during second half of last season and showed benefit of reappearance effort when fourth of 10 in handicap at this C&D (soft) 21 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and he holds each-way possibilities. Close C&D 4th latest, having a clear shot at it unlike Rich Belief who finished alongside. |
|||
7th (10)  (20/1 -186%)Diamand De Vindecy |
20/1(-186%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Diamand De Vindecy 20/1, Fair winner at up to 15f on the Flat in France and back to best in this sphere of late, well served by test of speed when landing 5-runner Haydock handicap (16.2f) 9 days ago. This looks tougher having been nudged up 5 lb. Won at Haydock (2m, good) nine days ago; may have more to offer now with focus on Flat. |
|||
8th (6)  (28/1 -100%)Lusaka |
28/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Lusaka 28/1, Had a fine spell on the level last summer, winning 4 of his last 5 starts in staying handicaps, latterly at Bath (14f) in September. Unable to make an impact after 7 months off/from career-high mark at Windsor (11.5f) in April and he needs to step up a good deal on that to figure. Well beaten on sole Flat start at about 2m (on heavy) and when on worse than good to soft. |
|||
9th (9)  (33/1 -106%)El Borracho |
33/1(-106%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) El Borracho 33/1, Likeable, versatile campaigner who tasted success on the Flat last spring and added to his tally over fences at Bangor (17.3f) in August. Mixed bag under both codes since returning from a break in recent months and others appeal more on this occasion. Cheekpieces didn't work over fences latest; needs a second look on 2023 Flat performances. |
|||
|PU| (12)  (12/1 +25%)Queensland Boy |
12/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Queensland Boy 12/1, Showed benefit of reappearance run as he made his first try at 2m a winning one at Wetherby in April. However, not in same form when sixth of 8 in handicap at Thirsk (14f, soft) 42 days ago, weakening approaching final 1f. Needs to bounce back. Won at Nottingham (soft) in April on penultimate start, his only race over this far. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
This C&D will hold no fears for Percy Jones, who finished second in the corresponding event 12 months ago. He is 1lb lower and a player today, but the progressive PLUS POINT can prove too strong. A game winner over an extended 1m6f at Doncaster two weeks ago, she looks set to relish the return to further and does not look overburdened by a subsequent 3lb rise. Lusaka can be forgiven his moderate reappearance and he's one to consider too.
Claims can be made for plenty but RICH BELIEF was arguably unlucky not to win having been shuffled back at a crucial stage when third in a C&D handicap 3 weeks ago and he earns the vote to confirm the promise shown then and come out on top. Plus Point and Wind Your Neck In both have untapped potential granted this sort of test and head the dangers, with Sharp Distinction also making each-way appeal.
The bad luck he suffered here last time was glaring and RICH BELIEF is selected to gain compensation.

14/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Princess Shabnam 14/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 25/1) 24 days ago, doing too much too soon. The draw could have been kinder. Runs this track well and returns here after a decent effort but has the outside draw. |
|||
(3)  (40/1 -150%)Indian Creak |
40/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Indian Creak 40/1, Below his last winning mark but has been below par on all 3 outings this year. The draw could have been kinder. Won three times in 2023 but yet to strike form this season and has tough draw today. |
|||
1st (4)  (33/1 +34%)Hyperfocus |
33/1(+34%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Hyperfocus 33/1, Signed off for 2023 with solid fourth of 22 in York handicap last October but has been well below that level in his 2 outings this year. Bounce back called for. Well down the field on both outings this season but too well handicapped to rule out. |
|||
2nd (2)  (7/2 +30%)Mythical Phoenix |
7/2(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Mythical Phoenix 7/2, Won 5f maiden in Ireland last summer. Promising start for new yard when runner-up in 6f handicaps for at Thirsk (soft) and Doncaster (firm) last month. Well drawn in stall 3. Likely to be winning soon. Runner-up on both starts for new stable this spring; holds strong claims from stall 3. |
|||
3rd (10)  (17/2 -31%)Evocative Spark |
17/2(-31%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Evocative Spark 17/2, Course winner. Creditable third over 7f here at the May meeting and backed that up when second of 9 at Beverley (7.5f, soft) 17 days ago. Claims if as effective back at shorter. Dual course winner over 7f; placed twice last month but may find 6f a bit too sharp. |
|||
4th (5)  (6/1 -20%)Monsieur Kodi |
6/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Monsieur Kodi 6/1, Respectable fifth of 11 in handicap at Hamilton (6f, good to firm, 13/2) 9 days ago. Has fallen to 2 lb below the mark he won from at Goodwood last summer. Should have a part to play. Yet to hit top gear this season but recent Hamilton fifth was quite encouraging. |
|||
5th (12)  (9/1 +36%)King Of Tonga |
9/1(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) King Of Tonga 9/1, Course winner. Latest win at Catterick in May. Creditable fourth of 9 in handicap (4/1) at Pontefract (6f, good) 5 days ago. Has in the inside stall and Hollie Doyle does the steering. In the frame all three starts since last month's Catterick win; up in grade but drawn well. |
|||
6th (11)  (17/2 +6%)Thankuappreciate |
17/2(+6%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Thankuappreciate 17/2, Thirteen runs since last win in 2022 but his 2 efforts this year have been creditable, shaping as if ready for a return to 6f when third of 9 over 5f at Beverley last month. Handily berthed in 2. Likely to go well. Denied clear run when placed at Beverley last month; also suited by this track; a player. |
|||
7th (8)  (10/1 -100%)Slainte Mhath |
10/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Slainte Mhath 10/1, Three-time winner on turf during 2023 who is proving a model of consistency this time around, making the placings for sixth consecutive start when third at Hamilton (6f, soft) 17 days ago. Her draw isn't ideal here. In the frame off today's mark six times over 6f this season; wide draw dents appeal. |
|||
8th (9)  (33/1 -230%)Exalted Angel |
33/1(-230%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Exalted Angel 33/1, Thirty runs since last win in 2021 but he did show he can be competitive from his lower turf mark when second of 8 at Carlisle (6, good to firm, 10/1) 26 days ago. Sound effort when second at Carlisle last month but remains without a win since 2021. |
|||
9th (6)  (8/1 -23%)Supreme King |
8/1(-23%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Supreme King 8/1, Second win of 2024 when scoring by 6 lengths at Doncaster (6f, good to soft) at the start of May. Respectable third back there since. One to consider. Burst clear to win at Doncaster last month and placed off new mark there since; big player. |
|||
10th (7)  (10/1 +29%)Faro De San Juan |
10/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Faro De San Juan 10/1, Caused a 25/1 surprise in this race 12 months. Mixed record later in 2023 but he did perform with credit when fourth of 16 in 6f Newmarket handicap when last seen in November. Has had wind surgery ahead of reappearance. Absent since November but won this race in 2023 and has good record when fresh. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Runner-up on both of his starts since joining the Julie Camacho outfit, Mythical Phoenix is likely to prove popular once again, but a chance is taken on EXALTED ANGEL. Karl Burke's charge often reserves his best for an artificial surface, but he was a creditable second from this reduced turf mark last time out and must hold every chance under similar conditions. Hyperfocus has become too well treated to ignore, while last year's surprise victor Faro De San Juan should not be underestimated.
MYTHICAL PHOENIX can cement his positive start for the Julie Camacho stable by coming good here from a handy inside stall. Thankuappreciate is another who has fared well with the draw and is second choice ahead of Supreme King.
Preference is for MYTHICAL PHOENIX, who started off for Julie Camacho with two creditable seconds last month and is well drawn here.

15/2(-15%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Richard P Smith 15/2, Posted a career best when winning 7-runner handicap (17/2) at Windsor (10f, good to firm) 33 days ago. Scored with a bit in hand there so he's not taken lightly back up in trip. Engaged York 4.45 Friday. Cosy winner at Windsor 33 days ago; came up short in higher grade at York yesterday. |
|||
1st (2)  (3/1 +14%)Dreams Adozen |
3/1(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Dreams Adozen 3/1, Course winner who recorded a good third of 6 in handicap at Nottingham (14f, good) 10 days ago, sticking to his task. Weighted to go well off same mark. Course scorer; solid third at Nottingham ten days ago; merits serious consideration. |
|||
2nd (10)  (13/2 -8%)Grey Fable |
13/2(-8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Grey Fable 13/2, Remains a maiden after 20 runs but he posted a creditable third of 14 in handicap at Sligo (10.6f, good to soft) 41 days ago on his final run for Sheila Lavery. Shortlisted. Engaged Fairyhouse 8.30 Friday. 0-20 but creditable Sligo 3rd on final run for Sheila Lavery. |

7/2(+22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Time Tells All 7/2, In good nick for his current yard, second of 9 in handicap at Nottingham (10.2f, good) 10 days ago. Up in trip and firmly in the picture. Comes here in good form without winning, runner-up at Nottigham last time; up in trip. |
|||
4th (5)  (18/1 +28%)Sutue Alshams |
18/1(+28%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Sutue Alshams 18/1, Looked rusty after 8 months off when thirteenth of 14 in handicap at Hamilton (11.1f, good to firm, 25/1) 13 days ago. Can take a step forward. Shaped as if in need of the run at Hamilton on return; can take a step forward now. |
|||
5th (4)  (400/1 -13233%)Order Of Malta |
400/1(-13233%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Order Of Malta 400/1, Resumed from 7 months off with an encouraging fourth of 7 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 36 days ago. Needs considering with hood added. Shaped well on return when C&D fourth last month; can make presence felt with hood added. |
|||
6th (8)  (350/1 -1300%)Achnamara |
350/1(-1300%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Achnamara 350/1, Winless since 2022 and comes here below par, again very slowly away when seventh of 11 in handicap (25/1) at Catterick (13.9f, good to firm) 7 days ago. Others appeal more. On long losing run; scuppered his cause last time with a very slow start at Catterick. |
|||
7th (7)  (400/1 -3900%)Percy Willis |
400/1(-3900%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Percy Willis 400/1, Resumed winning ways at Newcastle in March and has continued in good form, third of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f) 34 days ago. Back up in trip. Can go well again. Another good effort when third on Newcastle AW last month; reliable sort needs considering. |
|||
8th (9)  (350/1 -1650%)Byzantine Empire |
350/1(-1650%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Byzantine Empire 350/1, Comes here fit from a recent third over hurdles so this fair performer can't be discounted back in this sphere. Below par both runs for current yard, well-held third over hurdles latest; needs more. |
|||
9th (3)  (250/1 -2400%)Rocha Do Leao |
250/1(-2400%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Rocha Do Leao 250/1, Blinkered for 1st time when good second of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW) 66 days ago on her final run for Jane Chapple-Hyam. Cheekpieces go on for her new yard and one to consider. Good Lingfield second latest; much respected for her new yard; cheekpieces replace visor. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
TIME TELLS ALL bounced back to form when a short-head second over 1m2f at Nottingham 10 days ago and Declan Carroll's gelding has to be of interest off just a 1lb higher mark here. Dreams Adozen was a close third over 1m6f on the same card and could prove to be the main threat, although Rocha Do Leao and Percy Willis should not be discounted.
Course-winner DREAMS ADOZEN showed a good attitude when a recent solid Nottingham third so looks the way to go off a 1 lb lower mark. Recent Windsor scorer Richard P Smith heads the list of dangers ahead of in-form pair Time Tells All and Order of Malta.
Preference is for DREAMS ADOZEN who has winning form here and signalled she's ready to go close when a good Nottingham third last time

11/1(-57%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) She's A Novelty 11/1, Won a pair of 11.5f turf handicaps at the end of last summer and returned from 9 months off with a creditable effort at Doncaster (11.9f) 15 days ago. Won final two races in 2023; good reappearance run when 5th at Doncaster; contender. |

(7)  (22/1 -83%)Polar Princess |
22/1(-83%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Polar Princess 22/1, Opened her account a shade cosily at Newcastle (12.5f) in February but has underperformed both subsequent outings. AW winner; well below best over C&D on only previous run on turf; others preferred. |
|||
1st (3)  (11/2 +45%)Eyetrap |
11/2(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Eyetrap 11/2, Lightly-raced 4-y-o who seemingly didn't get home over 2f longer trip when seventh of 9 in handicap at Haydock (11.8f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Others make more appeal kept to this trip. 1m2f winner last term; mainly below form since, including at 1m4f last time; bit to prove. |
|||
2nd (5)  (10/3 +17%)Gordon Grey |
10/3(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Gordon Grey 10/3, Finally got off the mark after a few recent near misses in 9-runner handicap at Pontefract (12f, good to soft) 22 days ago, always holding on. 3 lb rise fair and should give another good account. Made all to get off the mark last time; up 3lb and not ideally drawn but still a possible. |
|||
3rd (4)  (66/1 -1882%)Oman |
66/1(-1882%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Oman 66/1, Reluctant individual but has made a fine start for current yard, taking advantage of a much-reduced mark over C&D last month and caught only close home in his follow-up back here 3 weeks ago. Remains of interest. Two good C&D runs in blinkers of late; up a total of 6lb but he should go well again. |
|||
4th (8)  (350/1 -1650%)Precision Storm |
350/1(-1650%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Precision Storm 350/1, Course winner who came home only fifth of 7 in handicap at Bath (10.2f, soft, 14/1) 48 days ago. Up in trip. Must better recent form. Sole turf win was at 1m2f here in 2022; mixed form since; well beaten in only try at 1m4f.. |
|||
5th (1)  (400/1 -11329%)Tango Man |
400/1(-11329%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Tango Man 400/1, Fairly useful maiden with some notably strong form and ran well in first-time cheekpieces on first run since leaving Paul & Oliver Cole when third of 16 in strong-looking handicap at Wetherby (10f) 12 days ago. Should stay this still longer trip and big player if that doesn't come too soon. Lightly raced 4yo; good 3rd of 16 on Wetherby return (1m2f); up in trip; interesting. |
|||
6th (2)  (350/1 -8650%)Sax Appeal |
350/1(-8650%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Sax Appeal 350/1, Made all at Wolverhampton in February and returned to a similar level when second in 7-runner handicap at Thirsk (12f) last week. Joe Fanning takes over from regular 7-lb claimer and he has to be respected. Both wins on the AW (1m3f/1m4f); best turf run when second at Thirsk last week; a possible. |
|||
7th (9)  (400/1 -1900%)Rose Donnelly |
400/1(-1900%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Rose Donnelly 400/1, Lightly-raced maiden who was below form stepped up in trip when down the field in 12f handicap (33/1) at Newbury (good) 29 days ago. Sound handicap debut over 1m2f but lesser run upped to 1m4f in a better race since. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
In an open event, marginal preference is for GORDON GREY, who got off the mark over this trip at Pontefract last month and a 3lb rise for that success appears to be fair. The unexposed Tango Man made the frame at Wetherby recently and has to be of interest on his first attempt at this distance. Oman and Sax Appeal are others who arrive here with strong form claims.
OMAN is less than straightforward but he's made a fine start for his current yard and remains very well treated on old form, so he receives the vote. Tango Man ran well in a strong-looking handicap at Wetherby 12 days ago and looks sure to play a leading role over this still longer trip providing this doesn't come too soon, with the ultra-consistent Gordon Grey completing the shortlist.
In an open event TANGO MAN, who should be suited by this step up in trip, is taken to beat the in-form C&D winner Oman.
