1st (6) Queen Of Burgundy (6.5/1 +7%)
Queen Of Burgundy

6.5
6.5/1(+7%)
(6) Queen Of Burgundy 6.5/1, Off the mark for this yard at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in March and went in again at Lingfield (1m) in April. Latest run at Leicester (on back of 9 weeks off) was disappointing but she may well be sharper with that under her belt.
3
2nd (3) Keeper's Choice (9/1 +10%)
Keeper's Choice

9
9/1(+10%)
(3) Keeper's Choice 9/1, Each of her 3 victories for this yard have come at Bath, latterly back-to-back 1m events last summer. Yet to hit top gear in pair of starts this campaign though, including when fourth of 7 at aforementioned venue in June.
2
3rd (2) Rock Melody (2.75/1 +0%)
Rock Melody

2.75
2.75/1(+0%)
(2) Rock Melody 2.75/1, Maiden/novice winner at 2. Respectable third in 7f Salisbury handicap on reappearance and not seen to best effect in a steadily-run affair when last of 5 at Newmarket (7f) in June. Another partnered by promising apprentice and better showing expected.
1
4th (1) Verreaux Eagle (3.33/1 -67%)
Verreaux Eagle

3.33
3.33/1(-67%)
(1) Verreaux Eagle 3.33/1, Dual winner at up to 7f on turf/AW as a 3-y-o who twice went close in 7f handicaps during the spring. Not disgraced more recently and promising apprentice takes off valuable 5 lb here. Possibilities.
5
5th (5) Soller Bay (4.5/1 +36%)
Soller Bay

4.5
4.5/1(+36%)
(5) Soller Bay 4.5/1, Looked well served by drop back to 6f when getting on top close home at York on final start as a 3-y-o in September. Yet to scale same heights in trio of starts this campaign but mark is easing again and she's been given a short break since her last run.
4
6th (4) Cygneture (4.5/1 +36%)
Cygneture

4.5
4.5/1(+36%)
(4) Cygneture 4.5/1, AW novice winner last November but not progressed from that in pair of handicaps this season, making no impression when last of 6 at Chelmsford (7f) on her latest start 13 days ago. Probably best to look elsewhere despite operating from plum draw. Hood refitted.

Look Out Louis

22
22/1(-57%)
(8) Look Out Louis 22/1, Excellent second behind progressive Twilight Calls at Newmarket prior to resuming winning ways over C&D in May. Seemingly not 100% when last of 12 at York later that month and bounce back likely for all he's drawn wider than ideal.
4
2nd (4) Manaccan (6.5/1 -18%)
Manaccan

6.5
6.5/1(-18%)
(4) Manaccan 6.5/1, Useful colt who was clearly sharper for her reappearance spin when close-up fifth in big-field Royal Ascot handicap (5f) last month, giving best only late on. Remains pretty low-mileage and has plum draw to work from so worth a look.
12
3rd (12) Sampers Seven (33/1 -32%)
Sampers Seven

33
33/1(-32%)
(12) Sampers Seven 33/1, Dual 5f scorer during 2020 who missed last year but proved she retains all his ability when second at Haydock (5f) in May. Hasn't quite scaled same heights in 2 starts since and draw out wide makes things tough.
5
4th (5) Count D'orsay (6.5/1 +7%)
Count D'orsay

6.5
6.5/1(+7%)
(5) Count D'orsay 6.5/1, Winless since 2020 but confirmed himself back in good heart when fifth in 20-runner Ascot handicap (5f) 7 days ago. Best efforts previously this term had come over C&D and he's a live each-way player again.
10
5th (10) Navello (6.5/1 -63%)
Navello

6.5
6.5/1(-63%)
(10) Navello 6.5/1, Career-best effort when landing 4-runner C&D handicap 2 starts back and not well positioned (on far side wing) when sixth in 12-runner Newmarket handicap (5f) 8 days ago. Good pace to aim at will help here and mark doesn't look beyond him.
9
6th (9) Shamlaan (11/1 -47%)
Shamlaan

11
11/1(-47%)
(9) Shamlaan 11/1, Gained third victory from first 4 starts for new yard at Goodwood (5f) in April and made frame on 2 of 3 starts since, third at Sandown (5f) 2 weeks ago, suited by good pace. Promising apprentice takes off valuable 5 lb and he's in with a shout.
3
7th (3) Apollo One (5.5/1 +31%)
Apollo One

5.5
5.5/1(+31%)
(3) Apollo One 5.5/1, Got back on track when third of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford (6f) in May and far from disgraced when eighth in the Wokingham (6f) at Royal Ascot, having cut out the running. Will face competition up front but this less demanding having first crack at minimum trip.
7
8th (7) Gabrial The Devil (25/1 -14%)
Gabrial The Devil

25
25/1(-14%)
(7) Gabrial The Devil 25/1, 5-time course winner who may have still needed the run when 4¼ lengths third of 4 to Navello in a C&D handicap 3 weeks ago, weakening final 1f. Mark is steadily easing but majority of his victories have come on ground softer than good. Cheekpieces back on.
6
9th (6) Live In The Dream (4.5/1 +18%)
Live In The Dream

4.5
4.5/1(+18%)
(6) Live In The Dream 4.5/1, Much-improved when landing handicaps at Sandown/over C&D during the spring. More than backed that up since, fifth in Epsom "Dash" prior to good second in listed event latest. May not be easy to boss matters from his draw in stall 9, though.
1
10th (1) Copper Knight (12/1 -20%)
Copper Knight

12
12/1(-20%)
(1) Copper Knight 12/1, Tremendous servant to connections who goes well here, gaining third C&D victory in June. Weakened out of things having done plenty on the front end in Gosforth Park Cup since but his revised mark demands that little bit more in any case.
2
11th (2) King Of Stars (5/1 +23%)
King Of Stars

5
5/1(+23%)
(2) King Of Stars 5/1, Yet to add to his four 2021 wins this term, but he arrives having run best race of the campaign when runner-up at Sandown (5f) 2 weeks ago, finding only a 3-y-o too strong. Good draw to work from here and not underestimated.

Haliphon

10
10/1(-33%)
(5) Haliphon 10/1, Dual French winner who opened his account on these shores at York just over 5 weeks ago, second past the post but rightly awarded race in steward's room. 5 lb higher here but no surprise if he's involved at the business end.
2
2nd (2) Alfred Boucher (6/1 +14%)
Alfred Boucher

6
6/1(+14%)
(2) Alfred Boucher 6/1, 6-y-o who ended losing run over 1½m at Ascot last summer. Ran well upped markedly in trip on first outing for this new yard when runner-up over 2m here 5 weeks ago but this looks even more competitive.
12
3rd (12) Haseefah (9/1 +10%)
Haseefah

9
9/1(+10%)
(12) Haseefah 9/1, Didn't progress over hurdles after a winning start but she's relished the return to the Flat with 1½m handicap wins over C&D and at Goodwood in May. Ran creditably up against progressive sorts when runner-up at Newmarket 3 weeks ago and she's another with place claims.
11
4th (11) Desert Emperor (20/1 -82%)
Desert Emperor

20
20/1(-82%)
(11) Desert Emperor 20/1, Enjoyed a productive winter at Wolverhampton and has hit the crossbar on four occasions this year, translating his consistent all-weather form back to turf here in May. Similar form next time and he's yet to post a bad effort since the tongue strap was applied.
9
5th (9) Topanticipation (6.5/1 +19%)
Topanticipation

6.5
6.5/1(+19%)
(9) Topanticipation 6.5/1, Frustrating last season but it all came together with wins at Leicester (1¼m) and York (1½m) this spring. Has continued in good form on both subsequent starts so should give another good account.
7
6th (7) Parachute (6.5/1 +0%)
Parachute

6.5
6.5/1(+0%)
(7) Parachute 6.5/1, Kept his quirks in check to open his account for the season with the headgear quickly discarded at Newbury last month. This a sterner test of his resolution and may find a few too strong.
8
7th (8) Sir Chauvelin (33/1 -18%)
Sir Chauvelin

33
33/1(-18%)
(8) Sir Chauvelin 33/1, Enjoyed an excellent winter, scoring at Newcastle 3 times. Stopped the slide having edged down to last winning mark when third at Ayr 12 days ago and he's a player if able to build on that effort here. Yard also runs Euchen Glen.
3
8th (3) Cockalorum (8.5/1 +39%)
Cockalorum

8.5
8.5/1(+39%)
(3) Cockalorum 8.5/1, Useful sort who is operating a notch below his best this year, ninth in John Smith's Cup at York last Saturday. Mark eases a couple of pounds and he could sneak a place.
10
9th (10) Heights Of Abraham (25/1 +17%)
Heights Of Abraham

25
25/1(+17%)
(10) Heights Of Abraham 25/1, Yet to really fire this season, taking a step back in the right direction at Ayr 4 weeks ago without suggesting a return to top form is imminent. Handicapper relinquishes his grip and he's worthy of a market check.
6
10th (6) Star Caliber (2.5/1 +0%)
Star Caliber

2.5
2.5/1(+0%)
(6) Star Caliber 2.5/1, Goodwood maiden winner on sole 2-y-o start. Eked out a little more improvement under another well-judged ride when runner-up at York back in October, and with the well-touted Harry Davies booked on reappearance, this front-runner could be tough to peg back.
1
11th (1) Euchen Glen (11/1 +21%)
Euchen Glen

11
11/1(+21%)
(1) Euchen Glen 11/1, Veteran who has been a tremendous servant to connections and he posted a solid third in listed race at York last month. However he made little impression at Sandown just over a fortnight ago and others look stronger on this occasion. Yard also runs Sir Chauvelin.

0.91/1(+27%)
(5) El Habeeb 0.91/1, Ran to a useful level on just his second start when 14¾ lengths tenth of 17 to Desert Crown in Derby at Epsom (12f, good) 42 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Takes a marked drop in grade on first run for yard after leaving J. S. Moore and is the one to beat.
3
3rd (3) Luttrell Lad (6/1 +29%)
Luttrell Lad

6

Sheer Rocks

8
8/1(+20%)
(4) Sheer Rocks 8/1, Won both of his outings at 2 and has run at least respectably on each of his 3 runs this year. Dropped 2 lb since latest run and Harry Davies takes a further 5 off, so he's not discounted back up in trip.
1
2nd (1) Chairman (2.25/1 +25%)
Chairman

2.25
2.25/1(+25%)
(1) Chairman 2.25/1, Promising son of Almanzor who landed a small-field Salisbury maiden (12f) early on last month and followd up at Bath next time. Shaped as if still in top form at Sandown last time, so very much respected.
5
3rd (5) Highland Premiere (10/1 -25%)
Highland Premiere

10
10/1(-25%)
(5) Highland Premiere 10/1, Three-time winner last season and arrives in form, runner-up at York (had the run of the race) 8 days ago. Others look better treated and he's unlikely to get his own way.

Precision Storm

6.5
6.5/1(-8%)
(5) Precision Storm 6.5/1, Back in the winning groove when getting the better of Greek Flame at Wolverhampton in May. 0-11 on turf, but produced his best effort yet on grass when just touched off at Bath (10.2f, good) next time and another bold show could be on the way.

Greek Flame

7
7/1(-155%)
(1) Greek Flame 7/1, Narrow winner of 9.5f Wolverhampton novice late last year. Improved when a neck second to Precision Storm on handicap bow over the same C&D in May, but another step forward will be needed if she's to go one better now switched to turf.

Golden Melody

4.5/1(+0%)
(2) Golden Melody 4.5/1, Successful three times in 2021, including off a 1 lb lower mark over this C&D in September. Good start to this season when placed in handicaps at Nottingham and Hamilton, but form has rather tailed off since and she now looks vulnerable.
4
4th (4) Angels Landing (3/1 +0%)
Angels Landing

3
3/1(+0%)
(4) Angels Landing 3/1, Sole success from nine starts on the Flat was gained on the AW, but again demonstrated that she's fully effective on turf when beaten a length into third by The New Marwan over C&D last weekend. Harry Davies' claim could help tilt the scales in her favour this time.
6
5th (6) The New Marwan (2.25/1 +36%)
The New Marwan

2.25
2.25/1(+36%)
(6) The New Marwan 2.25/1, Beaten a whisker over 12.3f here last month and drop back in trip worked the oracle when making all in a C&D handicap seven days ago. 3 lb rise fair enough and should be on the premises once again.
3

Plumette

11
11/1(+21%)

8
7th (8) Hot Team (33/1 +18%)

About U.K Horse Racing

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.
