1
1st (1) Speedacus (8.5/1 +15%)
Speedacus

8.5
8.5/1(+15%)
(1) Speedacus 8.5/1, Showed benefit of comeback run when bouncing back to form to score in a first-time visor at Chepstow (5f) in June. Unable to scale same heights in 2-quick-fire runs later that month but he returns from 5 weeks off with yard firmly amongst the winners.
Patchy record for this yard but conditions fine & feasibly weighted back down in class.

2nd (7) Mrs Trump (7.5/1 +17%)
Mrs Trump

7.5
7.5/1(+17%)
(7) Mrs Trump 7.5/1, Still a maiden but did run best race for present yard when second at Beverley (5f) 2 starts back. Not seen to best effect when fourth of 8 in handicap at Ripon (6f) 12 days ago and this sort of mark doesn't look beyond her on balance.
0-9 but she has shown promise; return to 5f can help; not ruled out.

3rd (5) Blazing Hot (18/1 -64%)
Blazing Hot

18
18/1(-64%)
(5) Blazing Hot 18/1, All 6 career victories gained on AW but he did run well following his comeback run when second to a well-treated sort at Pontefract (5f) in June. Has had excuses on 2 of his last 3 starts and he finished a respectable second from same mark in this race 12 months ago.
0-20 on turf and although he had an excuse last time, others are more appealing.

4th (3) Burj Malinka (1/1 +67%)
Burj Malinka

1
1/1(+67%)
(3) Burj Malinka 1/1, Dual 5f winner last season who returned with a good third in a C&D handicap in April. Not disgraced more recently, no extra last ½f when fifth at Carlisle (5.8f) 2 weeks ago. Return to the minimum trip can help and big shout operating from last winning mark.
On a winning mark and several solid runs this year; contender under suitable conditions.
6
5th (6) Miss Belladonna (12/1 -140%)
Miss Belladonna

12
12/1(-140%)
(6) Miss Belladonna 12/1, Largely campaigned on AW, getting on top late in the day when adding to her tally at Southwell (5f) in January. Creditable second returned to turf at Yarmouth (5f, good) 3 weeks ago but she does need to prove her effectiveness on ground softer than good.
Three-time AW winner; runner-up on fast turf latest; dam handled heavy so ground may be OK.
4
6th (4) Beau Roc (9/1 -260%)
Beau Roc

9
9/1(-260%)
(4) Beau Roc 9/1, Largely consistent prior to shedding maiden tag at tenth time of asking at Bath (5f) 10 days ago, leading around 1f out and keeping on. 5 lb higher mark to defy in stronger affair now but she's certainly not out of things.
Tenth time lucky when winning decisively at Bath ten days ago; up 5lb in a stronger race.
2
7th (2) Stone Of Destiny (3.5/1 +30%)
Stone Of Destiny

3.5
3.5/1(+30%)
(2) Stone Of Destiny 3.5/1, Fair handicapper on turf nowadays who ran one of this season's better races despite not being ideally placed when fourth in a C&D handicap 9 days ago. However, fact it's now approaching 3 years since he last got his head in front tempers enthusiasm here.
Talented and ran well over 5.5f here last week; shouldn't be far away.
LTO Selection:

18:15 Doncaster Handicap (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Following a comfortable success over this distance at Bath earlier this month, BEAU ROC is fancied to secure a double, albeit off a 5lb raised mark. She has been fairly consistent of late and can be forgiven following a disappointing spin over 6f at Newmarket on her penultimate outing. Miss Belladonna filled the runner-up spot at Yarmouth last month and is feared most off the same mark, while Mrs Trump completes the shortlist.

The one who makes most appeal is BURJ MALINKA. A good third in a race that worked out well over C&D in April, he's largely remained in form since and this return to the minimum trip could be just the ticket operating from his last winning mark. Bath scorer Beau Roc is a threat with a repeat, whilst it would come as no surprise to see a better showing from Speedacus back from 5 weeks off.

(7) Snafiya 2.25/1, Solid start for George Boughey, cheekpieces on for 1st time when good second of 10 in minor event at Ripon (6f, good to firm) 51 days. Well in the mix again.
Sets standard after 3 promising efforts for G Boughey; perhaps vulnerable to an improver.

(4) Roman Secret 4/1, Foaled March 11. Holy Roman Emperor filly. Half-sister to useful 2-y-o 7f-1¼m winner Have Secret. Dam 10.7f winner. Not ruled out for good yard.
May need more distance and time but she's bred to be useful; worth a market check.

(1) Amazing Winnie 18/1, 14/1, sixth of 7 in minor event at Haydock (7f, good to firm) on debut 57 days ago. Lots more is needed.

40/1(+20%)
(8) Swiftly 40/1, Twice-raced maiden. 25/1, seventh of 12 in maiden at Catterick (5f, good to firm) 10 days ago. Back up in trip with work to do.
Modest form in two starts this summer; return to 6f a plus but nurseries beckon after this.
LTO Selection:

18:45 Doncaster Stakes (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

In a field dominated by unraced candidates, the vote goes to SNAFIYA, who has shown promise on all three career starts. She lost little in defeat behind subsequent Albany fifth Pretty Crystal at Ripon on her most recent outing and, with more progression likely, can get the better of the unraced Glitterella, who is related to a few smart types. Fellow newcomer Queen's Guard is another not to be taken lightly either.

The market should prove highly informative but Michael Bell's Havana Grey filly QUEEN'S GUARD catches the eye on paper and holds a Lowther entry so is taken to make a winning debut at the chief expense of Snafiya, who showed fair form for George Boughey and now starts out for her new yard with plenty to recommend her. Other debutantes Roman Secret and Glitterella are in good hands and worth a market check too.

Snafiya sets the standard but there are some interesting opponents and SALAAMAAT is taken to leave her debut effort well behind.

Hinted at promise when debut sixth at Haydock; this Time Test colt can build on it now.
LTO Selection:

19:15 Doncaster Stakes (Class 2) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Straight A has to shoulder a 6lb penalty following a two-length success at Yarmouth last month and he could struggle with that in mind, so GOLDEN BUNGLE gets the vote. A comfortable winner over this distance at Leicester last month, she receives both a fillies' and a Band D allowance and could have more to offer upped in class. Others of interest include Nellie Leylax and Chiefman.

The step up to 7f should suit STRAIGHT A who is selected to add to last month's Yarmouth success. The fact that Chiefman went off at 5/4 for his debut suggests he's well regarded and it would be no surprise to see him leave that opening run behind and provide the chief threat. Tasmanian Legend is another who could improve plenty with an outing under his belt, while Magna Vega is a newcomer to keep a close eye on in the betting given Danny Tudhope has a 4-9 record for the Tom Clover yard in 2023.

Harry Eustace's STRAIGHT A has to concede weight all round but there was lots to like about his Yarmouth win and he can defy a penalty

Very lightly raced 5yo who was back on track with Redcar second last month; merits respect.
LTO Selection:

19:45 Doncaster Handicap (Class 3) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

Plenty of connections will be arriving here thinking their runners have a good chance of taking this prize, perhaps none more so than those affiliated with HICKORY. James Fanshawe's charge was just beaten three-quarters of a length when running well in second over 7f at Redcar last time and, off the same mark today, he appears primed for another bold bid. Atrium seems to be the biggest danger now back in these calmer waters after running in the Royal Hunt Cup at Royal Ascot on his latest outing, while Game Set should also be respected on his handicap bow.

GAME SET is the one here who could prove better than a handicapper. The only 3-y-o in the field and a winner over C&D on debut, he should prove more than a match for his rivals and can remain unbeaten. Sir Thomas Gresham looks the main danger, ahead of the admirable Maywake.

Sole 3yo GAME SET has looked very promising when winning two novices (C&D first occasion) and can stretch his unbeaten record to three.

(13) Big Dutchie 66/1, Remains a maiden after 23 Flat runs. 20/1, seventh of 8 in handicap at Nottingham (10.2f, good to firm) 37 days ago. Back down in trip and he's essentially opposable.
Achieved little in two runs on soft ground and only holds outside claims.

LTO Selection:

20:15 Doncaster Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

A lot of in-form rivals line-up for this deep contest and plenty are in with a chance, but the nod goes to POWERFUL RESPONSE. Edward Bethell's charge arrives here seeking a hat-trick after wins at Newcastle and Hamilton and the most recent of those successes was more comfortably than the winning distance of three-quarters of a length suggests. The three-year-old will have to defy another 4lb rise in the ratings but he appears to be on an upward trajectory and he could take the beating. Back From Dubai looks to be the biggest danger after a cosy success at Beverley, while Kodebreaker heads the remainder.

The vote goes to WAR DEFENDER, who has slipped to an attractive mark and dropping back in trip here will aid his cause after weakening close home when fourth over 9f at Musselburgh recently. Back From Dubai resumed winning ways at Beverley and is next on the list ahead of the hat-trick seeking Powerful Response and the consistent Kodebreaker.

Back From Dubai is respected but POWERFUL RESPONSE has the most potential of these as he chases a hat-trick for his in-form yard.

20:45 Doncaster Handicap (Class 5) 12f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

OWNERS DREAM has been running consistently well of late and this looks like a nice opportunity to get his head in front. David O'Meara's runner shaped as if this extra yardage would suit when running with credit in third over 1m2f at Haydock earlier this month and, dropped 1lb by the handicapper for that two-length defeat, he could be on a dangerous mark. Last-time-out winner Baileys Khelstar should also be thereabouts but he'll have to defy a 4lb hike in the ratings, while Graham is not without a chance.

GRAHAM is going the right way and was comfortably on top of the remainder when second at Newbury last time, so he's fancied to go one better despite the presence of Baileys Khelstar, who looks similarly progressive. Latin Verse was better than the result on his latest outing and shouldn't be completely dismissed.

David O'Meara's OWNERS DREAM took a step forward with his Haydock third and gets the nod with more to come now his stamina is drawn out

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.
