(1)  (17/2 -42%)Anthropologist |
17/2(-42%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Anthropologist 17/2, Similar form all 3 starts. Seventh of 12 in novice event (6/1) at Newmarket (6f, good) 43 days ago, pulling hard and losing places close home. Beaten less than 3l in all of his three runs but he needs to find improvement here. |
|||
(8)  (125/1 -150%)Eva's Eyes |
125/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Eva's Eyes 125/1, Twice-raced filly. Eighth of 10 in novice event at this C&D (good to soft, 50/1) 14 days ago. Well held in both runs and latest was over C&D two weeks ago; no appeal. |
|||
1st (4)  (11/8 +31%)The Flying Seagull |
11/8(+31%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) The Flying Seagull 11/8, Just about most promising effort yet when second of 10 in novice event at this C&D (good to soft) 14 days ago, faring best of those ridden prominently. Should be in the mix. Good second over C&D latest and this well-bred colt is open to more progress; respected. |
|||
2nd (10)  (100/1 -203%)Blueandtangerine |
100/1(-203%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Blueandtangerine 100/1, 22/1, sixth of 12 in novice event at Thirsk (5f, heavy) on debut 70 days ago. Up in trip. Well-held on Thirsk debut and she's probably a longer-term prospect. |
|||
3rd (3)  (9/1 -227%)Sensorium |
9/1(-227%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Sensorium 9/1, Showed ability on debut and pitched into the deep end, he fared as well as could be expected when 8 lengths fourteenth of 27 to Ain't Nobody in listed Windsor Castle Stakes at Royal Ascot (5f, firm, 100/1) 10 days ago. Back up in trip and this a much more realistic assignment. Wasn't disgraced in the Windsor Castle and he sets the standard back in much calmer waters. |
|||
4th (2)  (125/1 -2678%)Groundsman |
125/1(-2678%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Groundsman 125/1, Foaled February 5. €41,000 foal, 62,000 gns yearling, Acclamation colt. Dam, maiden (stayed 8.5f) out of useful 8.3f winner Say No Now. Yard's 2-y-os in excellent order. 62,000gns yearling; yard 17% with 2yos this year and he needs checking in market. |
|||
5th (9)  (350/1 -2400%)Misty Sky |
350/1(-2400%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Misty Sky 350/1, 13/2, refused to race in maiden at Pontefract (6f, good) on debut 19 days ago. Will hopefully be on best behaviour next time. 15-2 for her Pontefract debut but she refused to race; stablemate of The Flying Seagull. |
|||
6th (7)  (300/1 -2900%)Uncle Bonni |
300/1(-2900%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Uncle Bonni 300/1, Foaled May 9. 31,000 gns yearling, 30,000 gns 2-y-o, Mehmas gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including US winner up to 1m Goodthingstaketime and 1¼m winner Blueflagflyinghigh. Yard more than capable of readying one. 30,000gns breeze-up 2yo; yard 24% with 2yos this season and he needs a close look on debut. |
|||
7th (5)  (300/1 -3233%)Mrbluesky |
300/1(-3233%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Mrbluesky 300/1, Stepped up on debut run when third of 14 in seller at York (6f, good to soft) 15 days ago, slowly away. Capable of a bigger performance when breaking on terms. Eyecatching third in Rous seller at York latest and he's open to more progress. |
|||
8th (6)  (100/1 -400%)Son Of Astar |
100/1(-400%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Son Of Astar 100/1, Low-key debut and but sent off at 33/1, he showed more when fourth of 7 in novice event at Leicester (5f, good to soft) 32 days ago. Up in trip. Well held in two 5f runs at Leicester and has plenty to find upped in trip. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
After struggling to land a blow in the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot last week, SENSORIUM appears primed to make his presence felt dropped back into these calmer waters. Dylan Cunha's charge has been drawn in stall one which should really help this son of Kodiac. The Flying Seagull is feared most after a good second over C&D last time, while Mrbluesky is also of interest.
SENSORIUM fared as well as could be expected when mid-field in the Windsor Castle 10 days ago and is fancied to make the most of this drop in grade coupled with a plum draw. The Flying Seagull is the obvious threat on form, with Uncle Bonni and Groundsman newcomers for successful yards.
The vote goes to SENSORIUM, who ran respectably in the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot and sets the standard back in much calmer eaters.

1st (5)  (6/4 +25%)Bur Dubai |
6/4(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Bur Dubai 6/4, Lightly-raced maiden who ran well when chasing home a subsequent winner on handicap debut at Kempton (12f) in May. Didn't look ideally served by the drop back in trip when third at Hamilton (9f) latest and return to this sort of test ought to see him in a better light. Generally progressive 3yo who has been placed in handicaps the last twice; big player. |
|||
2nd (4)  (350/1 -13900%)Open Secret |
350/1(-13900%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Open Secret 350/1, Lightly-raced son of Cracksman who ran up to his best when runner-up in a Goodwood maiden (14f) last week, no match for the winner late on but well on top of the remainder. Should give another good account from the front returned to handicaps. Solid record in his five starts and he looks interesting back in a 1m4f handicap. |
|||
3rd (6)  (450/1 -9900%)Frankelian |
450/1(-9900%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Frankelian 450/1, Fair form in trio of 1m maidens during second half of last season and improved for step up in trip/switch to handicaps when third of 10 on return at Salisbury (9.9f) earlier this month. Bred to be a fair bit better than her opening mark and likely she can do better. Up in trip. Eyecatching third in a Salisbury handicap and she's open to more progress upped to 1m4f. |
|||
4th (3)  (350/1 -3400%)Percy Jones |
350/1(-3400%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Percy Jones 350/1, 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, seeming to just find a better treated pair too strong over 15.9f here 2 weeks ago. May have to settle for a minor role again. Placed here (2m) last time but he's now 0-13 on turf and needs to find more back in trip. |
|||
5th (1)  (350/1 -3082%)Selwan |
350/1(-3082%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Selwan 350/1, 3-time winner in France before proving very disappointing on these shore last year. More encouraging signs for new yard in recent months, not ideally placed when fourth in handicap at Kempton (12f) 24 days ago. Mark has eased a little more and he's one to keep an eye on. On reduced mark but he's 0-8 in Britain and needs to raise his game on this drop in grade. |
|||
6th (2)  (125/1 -3025%)Melek Alreeh |
125/1(-3025%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Melek Alreeh 125/1, Had an underwhelming 4-y-o campaign but eased in weights and built on reappearance promise when successful in 7-runner Southwell handicap (12f) in March. Struggled up in class on sole start since at Haydock (11.8f) 3 weeks ago but this drop in grade rates a plus. Won at Southwell in March but was laboured after a slow start at Haydock last time. |
|||
7th (7)  (400/1 -1718%)Busby |
400/1(-1718%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Busby 400/1, In good order on all-weather earlier this year but he's ran poorly on each of his last 2 starts since returning to turf and percentage call to look elsewhere now tackling this longer trip. All ten wins on AW and he's struggled back on turf last twice; opposable at new trip. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
FRANKELIAN shaped as if this extra yardage would suit when third on her handicap bow over 1m2f at Salisbury earlier this month, and this Frankel filly can offer a bold bid off an unchanged mark. Ralph Beckett's charge should still be improving and this could be the time to catch her. Open Secret has been knocking on the door so far this term and he can feature once more, while Bur Dubai is also respected.
Having chased home a subsequent winner on his penultimate start, BUR DUBAI seemed to find the drop back in trip against him when third at Hamilton earlier this month and with the return to this stiffer test likely in his favour, he can prove his mark a workable one. Frankelian improved when third on handicap debut at Salisbury and can do better again now her stamina is tested further. Open Secret is another fancied to feature.
An interesting race in which Raplh Beckett's filly FRANKELIAN gets the vote ahead of Open Secret and Bur Dubai.

1st (5)  (5/1 +0%)Radio Goo Goo |
5/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Radio Goo Goo 5/1, Five-time winner over 6f (twice over C&D) last year when also fourth at Royal Ascot. Resumed winning ways at Ripon (6f) in May and best excused latest run over 5f here, having had a difficult draw to contend. Berth in 3 much more suitable on this occasion and better anticipated. Dual C&D winner who had excuse from wide draw here last time and could bounce back. |
|||
2nd (1)  (350/1 -3789%)Bosh |
350/1(-3789%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Bosh 350/1, Found plenty late on when adding to his tally at Lingfield (6f) in March and continued good work with a good third in big-field handicap at Newbury (6f) a month later. Not at best when eighth at Newcastle (6f) in May but type to bounce back returning from a short break. His good run of form came to a halt at Newcastle and he's untried at this track. |
|||
3rd (3)  (11/1 -38%)Dare To Hope |
11/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Dare To Hope 11/1, Improved model this year, successful on return at Beverley (5f) and quickly dispelled a lesser effort on AW when runner-up at Hamilton (6f) 23 days ago. Comes here operating from career-high mark but he's not out of things. Hit personal best when going close at Hamilton last time and he's respected up 4lb. |
|||
4th (6)  (20/1 -233%)Buccabay |
20/1(-233%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Buccabay 20/1, Scored in good style in a Bath handicap in September and positive start to this season, back on the scoreboard when landing 14-runner handicap at Haydock (6f) 3 weeks ago. Nudged up 3 lb and he ought to remain competitive. Hit personal best when scoring at Haydock and a 3lb rise looks fair enough; shortlisted. |
|||
5th (9)  (66/1 -633%)Dickieburd |
66/1(-633%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Dickieburd 66/1, Represents a yard that continue in form, and he dispelled a lesser display when second of 11 in handicap here (5f) 2 weeks ago, headed last ½f and no extra. Equally effective at this trip but he's a tricky draw to contend with here. Course winner who was second here last time but has tough draw back up in trip. |
|||
6th (4)  (33/1 -891%)Way To Dubai |
33/1(-891%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Way To Dubai 33/1, Looked a little rusty after 3 months off here on penultimate run but stepped up considerably and looked unlucky not to win with cheekpieces fitted (retained here) when second over 7f back here 5 weeks ago, not getting the splits when required. Needs considering back at 6f from good draw. Unlucky second over 7f here latest; up 4lb but he could be a big player again back in trip. |
|||
7th (8)  (80/1 -1233%)Regal Envoy |
80/1(-1233%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Regal Envoy 80/1, Won twice last year and he comes here in great nick, winning handicaps at Lingfield/Salisbury (at 6f) in recent weeks. More on his plate from career-high mark/up in grade but he's clearly thriving at present. Hat-trick seeker who has taken his form to a new level recently; interesting contender. |
|||
8th (7)  (33/1 -136%)Paws For Thought |
33/1(-136%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Paws For Thought 33/1, C&D winner who landed a quick-fire hat-trick this time last year. Has only ticked over following an encouraging return effort on AW in the spring but his mark is easing all the time at least. Cheekpieces again the headgear of choice. Triple course winner but he's been well held in last three runs; needs to raise his game. |
|||
9th (10)  (80/1 -1500%)Old Chums |
80/1(-1500%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Old Chums 80/1, Progressive in handicaps on AW, winning twice and continued the good work on turf, ridden patiently from a wide draw and nicely on top at the line when landing a C&D handicap 2 weeks ago. Drawn much more favourably on this occasion and he looks sure to go well again. Won over C&D latest but this is tougher on this big step back up in grade; up 6lb. |
|||
10th (2)  (300/1 -809%)Last Crusader |
300/1(-809%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Last Crusader 300/1, Smart performer at his best for Karl Burke but failed to beat a rival in a couple of start early last year and he returns to action for new stable with a good bit to prove. Has lost his way and has plenty to prove for new yard after 427 days off; visor removed. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
After being only narrowly touched off over 7f at this venue last time, WAY TO DUBAI can go one better. Charlie Fellowes' runner was denied a clear run before flying late in the day on that occasion and, with more luck in running, the five-year-old can put a good draw to good use. Old Chums is feared most after a C&D success last time but he'll have to defy a 6lb rise, while Bosh is also noted.
This could well be run at a frantic pace which should play firmly to the strengths of Charlie Fellowes' WAY TO DUBAI. He looked an unlucky loser having not got the splits when required over 7f here 2 weeks ago and he can confirm his revised mark workable granted a good gallop to aim at again. Old Chums, successful over C&D latest, is a threat along with Dare To Hope. Radio Goo Goo completes the dangers.
This looks wide open but WAY TO DUBAI gets the vote ahead of Dare To Hope and hat-trick seeker Regal Envoy.

1st (1)  (7/2 -17%)Al Shabab Storm |
7/2(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Al Shabab Storm 7/2, Won a 6f Goodwood novice on soft last autumn and arrives here having finished runner-up on each of his last 2 starts, not aiding his cause by hanging badly left back at Goodwood (7f) 5 weeks ago. On a workable mark and he needs considering. Hung badly left when runner-up at Goodwood but he's respected back on a left-handed track. |
|||
2nd (6)  (18/1 -260%)Jungle Mac |
18/1(-260%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Jungle Mac 18/1, Won a maiden at Chelmsford City (6f) in February and has been holding his form well since, just failing in 10-runner Newmarket handicap (7f) 7 days ago. Nudged up 3 lb ahead of this but has the plum draw/Franny Norton aboard and he's a lead player. Went very close at Newmarket last Saturday and he's respected off 3lb higher here. |
|||
3rd (5)  (66/1 -3411%)Sunfall |
66/1(-3411%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Sunfall 66/1, Ran out a comfortable winner on return in a Kempton maiden (7f) in April. Not seen to best effect on handicap debut at Newmarket a month later and firmly back on the up when making all at Sandown (7f) 2 weeks ago. Likely to progress further and player from handy draw. Made it 2-4 with her clearcut win at Sandown; up 7lb but she's open to more improvement. |
|||
4th (7)  (33/1 +50%)Golden Pharaoh |
33/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Golden Pharaoh 33/1, Fairly useful performer at up to this trip in France who wasn't disgraced after 3 months off when ninth of 17 in handicap at York (7f, soft) on yard/UK debut 14 days ago. Entitled to be sharper here but little more needed if he's to come out on top. 2-11 in France but was down the field on British/stable debut at York; others preferred. |
|||
5th (4)  (28/1 -180%)Gunfighter |
28/1(-180%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Gunfighter 28/1, Two AW wins last year. Consistent in handicaps this time round, good third of 9 in handicap at Haydock (1m) 21 days ago. Drop back in trip will hold no fears but he may just be vulnerable to one or two again from unchanged mark. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Fair efforts last twice but he needs to find more back at this trip; headgear on. |
|||
6th (2)  (350/1 -6900%)Blue Prince |
350/1(-6900%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Blue Prince 350/1, Enjoyed a productive spell on the AW for this yard over the winter and has come right back to form of late tried at this sort of trip, keeping on for third of 13 in handicap at this course (7.6f, soft) 14 days ago. Should remain competitive. Placed in last three runs including here last time; dangerous if he gets some luck. |
|||
7th (3)  (300/1 -4186%)Ziggy's Condor |
300/1(-4186%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Ziggy's Condor 300/1, Debut 6f winner who resumed from 8 months/gelded with a very good second in big field York handicap (7f) in May. Raced closer to the pace than ideal when down the field back there (6f) a couple of weeks ago and he has races in him this term. Went very close on handicap debut at York but he flopped there last time; risks attached. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
There was little to separate Al Shabab Storm (second) and Blue Prince (third) when the pair met at Goodwood last month and both can play prominent roles once again, while recent Sandown scorer Sunfall merits the utmost respect. Preference, however, is for JUNGLE MAC. Jack Channon's charge wasn't beaten far by subsequent Britannia winner Mickley at Doncaster on his penultimate outing before going down by just a head at Newmarket.
A competitive 3-y-o handicap with the narrow vote in favour of JUNGLE MAC. He took a while to knuckle down when runner-up behind a less exposed rival at Newmarket last week (the pair clear) but that was still his best effort yet and the plum draw/Franny Norton in the saddle sways things in his favour. Sandown-scorer Sunfall is a chief threat from her handy draw. Al Shabab Storm and Blue Prince complete the shortlist.
The William Haggas-trained SUNFALL made it 2-4 with her clearcut win at Sandown two weeks ago and she gets the vote.

1st (3)  (14/1 -56%)Sea Grey |
14/1(-56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Sea Grey 14/1, Fairly useful in this sphere and bright start over hurdles for this yard, off the mark in maiden company at Catterick (19.3f) in December. Failed to build on that subsequently, running poorly at Bangor (16.6f) in May so return to the level needs to spark a revival. Disappointing since his hurdle win in December and comes with risks attached back on Flat. |
|||
2nd (6)  (5/1 +29%)Tailorman |
5/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Tailorman 5/1, Fair form when runner-up in pair of bumpers earlier this year. Some promise on first of 3 quick-fire runs in novice/maidens in this sphere in recent weeks and not disgraced when fourth of 8 on handicap debut at Nottingham (14f) on Thursday. Little more needed here. Unexposed 4yo who wasn't beaten far at Nottingham (1m6f) on Thursday; not ruled out. |
|||
3rd (8)  (25/1 +0%)Dovena |
25/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Dovena 25/1, Dual winner on turf for Amanda Perrett last summer and solid start for new stable when just touched off at Bath (11.6f) in September. Has yet to scale same heights in pair of outings so far this year, though. Well held in both runs this season and has questions to answer now upped to 2m. |
|||
4th (1)  (16/1 -611%)Dreams Adozen |
16/1(-611%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Dreams Adozen 16/1, 3-time winner last season, latterly with the mud flying over extended 14f here in August. Eased a little in weights in recent months and capitalised when successful back at this track (12.3f) 2 weeks ago. Versatile as regards ground/trip and she can go well again. Scored here latest but she's back on career-high mark and has never won over this far. |
|||
5th (4)  (50/1 -900%)Bulldog Spirit |
50/1(-900%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Bulldog Spirit 50/1, Showed benefit of his reappearance/stable debut effort when second at Hamilton (11f) in May and probably did too much too soon when finishing down the field over that track/trip 4 weeks ago. Better showing anticipated for all he still needs to fully prove himself at this trip. On workable mark but he faded last time and still has stamina to prove at this trip. |
|||
6th (7)  (350/1 -1300%)Achnamara |
350/1(-1300%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Achnamara 350/1, Winless since 2022 and comes here out of sorts, again forfeiting plenty of ground at the start when well-beaten sixth of 9 to Dreams Adozen in handicap at this course (12.3f, heavy, 20/1) 14 days ago. One to treat with caution now. On long losing sequence and has struggled back on turf in last four runs. |
|||
7th (5)  (125/1 -2400%)African Star |
125/1(-2400%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) African Star 125/1, Lingfield maiden winner (at 11.6f, turf) who made the frame in a couple of staying handicaps on AW for Sylvester Kirk around the turn of the year. Shaped as if needing his respective return for new stable at Lingfield (15.7f, AW) in May and entitled to be sharper now. May have needed the run on his stable debut and has possibilities back in trip. |

8th (2)  (250/1 -9900%)Clan Chieftain |
250/1(-9900%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Clan Chieftain 250/1, Low-mileage 4-y-o who stepped up plenty with a reappearance run under his belt when second of 8 in handicap at Salisbury (14.2f) 5 weeks ago. Appeals as being on a workable mark if he can build on that now his stamina is tested further. Back to form with promising second at Salisbury and 2m looks worth exploring; interesting. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Withdrawn twice on account of the ground recently, CLAN CHIEFTAIN gets his ideal conditions here and is taken to come out on top. The son of Gleaneagles appeared to be crying out for a step up in trip when finishing a creditable second over 1m6f at Salisbury last time. Dreams Adozen kept on gamely to score over an extended 1m4f here a fortnight ago and she is respected up 4lb, while African Star appeals most of the remainder.
CLAN CHIEFTAIN took a firm step back in the right direction back on a sounder surface when runner-up at Salisbury (14.2f) 5 weeks ago, and with untapped potential at this sort of trip, he earns the vote to build on that and prove his mark a workable one. The versatile and very likeable Dreams Adozen, who scored over shorter here recently, and Bulldog Spirit are also considered.
This can go to CLAN CHIEFTAIN (nap), who finished well at Salisbury last time and ls on the same mark on this step up to 2m.

1st (1)  (11/10 -64%)Bobby Bennu |
11/10(-64%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Bobby Bennu 11/10, Phoenix of Spain gelding who made a pleasing start to his career when second of 12 in 7f Kempton novice 24 days ago. Open to improvement and this looks a good chance to go one better. Promising second on Kempton debut (7f) and he's respected on this switch to turf. |
|||
2nd (2)  (400/1 -5614%)Warrior's Dance |
400/1(-5614%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Warrior's Dance 400/1, Offered plenty to work when third of 16 on 7f Wetherby debut 18 days ago. Open to progress for a stable enjoying a cracking June. Promising third at Wetherby and he's open to progress over this longer trip. |
|||
3rd (4)  (50/1 -2757%)Upscale |
50/1(-2757%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Upscale 50/1, Runner-up on 2 of her 3 starts (all 7f on turf). Headed only late on at Haydock last time and likely to be winning soon. Sets the standard on her latest second at Haydock and she's strongly respected. |
|||
4th (3)  (400/1 -1500%)Little Miss India |
400/1(-1500%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Little Miss India 400/1, Sent off at 66/1 when seventh of 10 on her 8.4f Nottingham debut 16 days ago. 66-1 on Nottingham debut (8.3f, good) and she finished a well-held seventh of ten. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
BOBBY BENNU impressed with a second-placed finish behind a now 88-rated filly on debut at Kempton 24 days ago and, with switching to turf logical, the Roger Varian-trained gelding is readily suggested as the one to be with. Upscale also ran a highly-rated type close at Haydock on her latest start and rates a key player on that form. Warrior's Dance can beat Little Miss India for third.
There was plenty to like about BOBBY BENNU's opening second at Haydock and he's narrowly preferred to Juddmonte filly Upscale.
Upscale sets a good standard but preference is for BOBBY BENNU, who showed plenty of promise with his debut second at Kempton.

1st (1)  (5/1 -166%)Esmeray |
5/1(-166%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Esmeray 5/1, Improving Sea The Moon filly who bids for a hat-trick after landing handicaps at Lingfield (10f) and Pontefract (12f) of late. Had plenty in hand on latter occasion so a big player despite taking a 6 lb rise. Record of 3212211 and her latest win was by 4l Pontefract; big player again up 4lb. |
|||
2nd (3)  (13/2 +7%)Karmology |
13/2(+7%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Karmology 13/2, A dual 1m scorer at 2yrs and she returned from 6 months off with a promising third of 8 in handicap at Ripon (9.8f, heavy) 72 days ago, fading only last 1f. Can do better. Well in the mix. Won her first two starts but held in handicaps in last two runs; needs more progress. |
|||
3rd (2)  (20/1 -900%)Loughville |
20/1(-900%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Loughville 20/1, Easily bagged her second success of 2024 in 16-runner handicap at Wetherby (10f, good to firm) 26 days ago. Hiked up 10 lb but she's not taken lightly in her current mood. Won two of last three and she forged clear from a subsequent winner last time; respected. |
|||
4th (7)  (28/1 -367%)Haya |
28/1(-367%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Haya 28/1, Got off the mark in 9-runner minor event at Carlisle (9f, good to soft) 30 days ago. This strong traveller looks to have more to offer now going into handicaps. Very much one to consider. Carlisle winner and she's respected on handicap debut; yard won this in 2019 and 2022. |
|||
5th (4)  (66/1 -371%)Carolina Reaper |
66/1(-371%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Carolina Reaper 66/1, Showed fairly useful form at 2yrs when a dual 7f winner and she got back on track when a close seventh of 9 to Devoted Queen in listed race at York (7.9f, good) 16 days ago. No forlorn hope on her handicap debut. Group 3 win in Germany last summer but looks fairly exposed now and others are preferred. |
|||
6th (6)  (100/1 -1011%)Golden Melody |
100/1(-1011%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Golden Melody 100/1, Blinkered for the first time when ending a long losing run in 9-runner handicap at Carlisle (7.8f, soft) 12 days ago. Up 4 lb but this C&D winner must enter calculations. Won at Carlisle (1m) last time but this is tougher on this big step back up in grade. |
|||
7th (5)  (100/1 -733%)Giudecca |
100/1(-733%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Giudecca 100/1, Lightly-raced Ulysses filly who improved a chunk when readily landing 7f Newcastle maiden in September. Came in last of nine on her handicap bow at Southwell (1m) in April but she's well worth another chance. Unexposed filly but she made a low-key start in handicaps at Southwell; bit to prove. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
The hat-trick seeking ESMERAY represents an in-form yard and, reunited with Rob Hornby, the daughter of Sea The Moon can expand on her winning sequence despite going up 6lb for her cosy win at Pontefract 19 days ago. Fellow last-time-out winner Loughville rates the chief danger even though she is 10lb higher for winning at Wetherby. Ripon third Karmology is a potential improver second time up this year.
None of these can be ruled out but the vote goes to Ralph Beckett's upwardly-mobile filly ESMERAY who can defy a 6 lb weights rise and bag a quick hat-trick. Facile Wetherby scorer Loughville rates a big danger though with more to come too, while Karmology, Haya and Giudecca can all build on previous efforts and also need factoring into this cracking handicap.
A fascinating race in which hat-trick seeker ESMERAY gets the vote ahead of impressive recent Wetherby winner Loughville.

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.
