13:50 Doncaster Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

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

Ayyab could go well here on his first try at the trip after running on into second over a mile at Nottingham, though she does have to give 8lb to KNIGHTS AFFAIR, which looks a big ask. He is also stepping up in trip after the Bated Breath gelding was slowly away at Catterick before running on into fifth and makes his handicap debut now off a sensible mark of 67. Khangai is another to consider in first-time cheekpieces for the in-form Mark Rimell yard, and he might try to make every post a winning one.

AYYAB has shown progressive form in 4 starts to date and the step up in trip may unlock the biggest leap forward yet, so Sean Woods's filly is fancied to make a winning handicap debut. Richard P Smith was right back to his best at Kempton last time and merits respect, with Ala Kaifi and Khangai others to make the shortlist.

The verdict goes to AYYAB, who is heading in the right direction. Ala Kaifi is second choice.

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

Executive Decision is looking for her hat-trick after wins at Goodwood and Chepstow, but she has 4lb more from the handicapper now and is upped in class which may end her winning run. Poet Master looked as if a mile was too far when only eighth at Haydock and will look to bounce back to winning ways, but NINE TENTHS is the pick. Just the one start this year saw a comfortable success at Windsor in May and although this will be her handicap debut, as a daughter of Kodiac, both trip and going may bring improvement.

NINE TENTHS marked herself down as a useful prospect when scoring impressively on return to action at Windsor in May and with further progress anticipated now handicapping William Haggas' filly could be the answer in a competitive affair. Executive Decision, who scored in good style at Chepstow, and Reminder head the dangers, whilst Zouky rates a danger to all granted a good pace to aim at.

Several runners are similarly appealing. The narrow vote goes to ZOUKY, ahead of Nine Tenths.

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

Mr Cuddihy shaped with promise on his handicap debut last month and could be on the premises with scope for further improvement. Always Fearless could be berthed well next to the former in stall 16 and must enter the reckoning following his recent Wolverhampton success, but preference is for I STILL HAVE FAITH. The three-year-old has been steadily progressive in handicaps this term and looks to hold every chance at the weights today. Others to note include Oh Herberts Reign and Dandy Maestro.

Not nearly so competitive as the numbers suggest and I STILL HAVE FAITH, who arrives in good order from handicaps, looks the way to go in his bid for a third success of 2023. C&D winner Oh Herberts Reign seems sure to be in the mix along with in-form duo Soames Forsyte and Always Fearless.

As a C&D winner on soft ground and heading here on the back of a positive performance last week, OH HERBERTS REIGN appeals most.

15:35 Doncaster Group 3 (Class 1) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

Last year's 1000 Guineas heroine CACHET makes her first start of the season and sets a very high standard with a rating of 113, which puts her 6lb clear of her nearest rival. The daughter of Aclaim should prove too good for these if she is ready to go on her return, before a possible tilt at the Sun Chariot. Magical Sunset surprised a few at Goodwood with her victory and should also go well again, while Nigiri is improving at a rate of knots and is well worth her place in the line-up.

Last year's 1000 Guineas winner CACHET will prove hard to beat if ready to go after 15 months off. Highly progressive 3-y-o Nigiri shouldn't be underestimated up in grade.

Cachet is respected despite her lengthy absence but a good alternative is VETIVER (nap). Dandy Alys is also shortlisted.

ROGUE LIGHTNING struck in the Shergar Cup Dash at Ascot last time to show he is a sprinter going places, as he is unbeaten in two starts since his gelding operation in May. The son of Kodiac could continue his rise in the ranks to add a Listed win to his tally before going onto better things. The main danger is Raasel, who did it well at Haydock to score by just under a length and he is more than capable at this level. Silky Wilkie makes more appeal than Fine Wine in the battle for third.

RAASEL won at a higher level than this last season and following a low-key start to 2023 he was just about better than ever at Haydock last week. He's the one to beat on these terms, though the 3-y-o Rogue Lightning is on a steep upward curve and has to command respect.

Raasel won't be easy to beat but SILKY WILKIE looks a worthy opponent and may enjoy a tactical advantage.

Frankel gelding State Of Desire ought to prove better than an opening mark of 78, but, though respected, a chance is taken on MONSIEUR MELEE. Jedd O'Keefee's charge did well to finish third at Musselburgh having been slowly away in leaving the stalls, before losing a shoe in the run. Back over a mile and on nursery debut, it would be no surprise to see him improve. Brocklesby winner Doddie's Impact has yet to add to that success, but the return here and a falling mark should aid his cause.

CHARMING WHISPER has laid an excellent foundation for nurseries, and given his dam stayed well, 1m should be well within range. He's awarded the vote in a tightly-knit nursery, with Monsieur Melee and Swift Salian feared most.

A chance is taken that STATE OF DESIRE can take a step forward on his nursery debut having been gelded. Monsieur Melee is next best.

J R CAVAGIN returned to form with a creditable second at Beverley three weeks ago. Paul Midgley's sprinter lifted this prize from a 5lb higher mark 12 months ago, and he appears to be nearing boiling point in a bid to repeat the dose. The Dunkirk Lads was narrowly denied at Carlisle last time and a similar performance ought to see him on the premises. Others to note include Bella Kopella and Slingsbytoo.

J R CAVAGIN is back in form and, having won over C&D around the same time last year, he's worth taking a chance on. Thornaby Pearl shaped well last time and is considered a threat, while Bella Kopella is likely to give her running again.

Catch Cunningham is a danger to all down in class but THORNABY PEARL can benefit from today's return to slower ground.

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.
