1st (2) New Bombay (11/4 +0%)
New Bombay

2.75
11/4(+0%)
(2) New Bombay 11/4, New Bay colt who landed 8-runner nursery at Chester (7f, good to soft) at the beginning of August. Creditable efforts on next 2 starts but needs to shrug off a below-par run at Sandown (1m, soft) 16 days ago.
Not made the progress his Chester win suggested he might; still one to consider strongly.

2nd (5) Pietro (5/2 +0%)
Pietro

2.5
5/2(+0%)
(5) Pietro 5/2, Improved to win an 8-runner C&D nursery (good to firm) last month and backed that up when second of 9 at Haydock (7f again) 24 days ago. Nudged up another 2 lb but it shouldn't prevent another prominent showing.
C&D win last month and followed it with a good second at Haydock; could be more to come.

3rd (1) White Chapel Road (5/2 -11%)
White Chapel Road

2.5
5/2(-11%)
(1) White Chapel Road 5/2, Improved when off the mark in 7f Brighton maiden (good to soft) 27 days ago, making virtually all. Very testing ground would be an unknown but his opening mark looks workable, particularly if Sean Dylan Bowen's 3 lb claim is taken into account.
Useful form on fast turf, winning well at Brighton four weeks ago; new ground to deal with.
3
4th (3) Graduated (12/1 -33%)
Graduated

12
12/1(-33%)
(3) Graduated 12/1, Progressive in first 3 starts, culminating with a C&D maiden win on good to firm last month. Faced a stiff task in a 6f York sales race last time and capable of bouncing back switching to a nursery.
Easy C&D win last month; outclassed in a sales race latest; different ground to deal with.
4
5th (4) Enchanted Eye (5/1 +0%)
Enchanted Eye

5
5/1(+0%)
(4) Enchanted Eye 5/1, Fair maiden. Creditable 3 lengths third of 9 in 1m Lingfield AW nursery in first-time cheekpieces (retained) 18 days ago. Should be competitive from an unchanged mark.
Consistent in nurseries, including a C&D second; dam handled soft; should run his race.

13:45 Epsom Handicap (Class 4) 7f  Race Class Flow

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

WHITE CHAPEL ROAD found the Convivial at York too hot, but he quickly bounced back to score impressively at Brighton earlier this month. In what doesn't look the deepest nursery on paper, the son of Land Force gets the vote to give weight and a beating to his rivals. Already a C&D winner, Graduated might be the main danger now dropping in grade after coming up short in a valuable sales race over 6f on the Knavesmire. Pietro is also considered.

If WHITE CHAPEL ROAD is in the same form as when making virtually all at Brighton last time he might be able to dominate this small-field nursery. Pietro has already won a similar race over C&D and looks the obvious threat.

Pietro is high on the list but the return to 7f can see NEW BOMBAY resume winning ways.

Too Soon

5.5
11/2(+31%)
(5) Too Soon 11/2, Caught the eye when fifth on Glorious Goodwood debut and showed plenty of promise again when third at Ascot 5 weeks later (both 7f). Should prove at least as effective over 1m.
Two promising runs over 7f at Goodwood/Ascot; more to come; chance in receipt of weight.

2nd (2) Anniversary (11/10 +12%)
Anniversary

1.1
11/10(+12%)
(2) Anniversary 11/10, Sea The Moon colt who looked a good prospect when making a winning debut at Newmarket (1m, good) 6 weeks ago. Sure to improve for his in-form leading yard and the one beat.
Useful effort to win at Newmarket (1m, good) on debut; capable of better; Group 1 entry.
4
3rd (4) The Green Mile (9/1 -38%)
The Green Mile

9
9/1(-38%)
(4) The Green Mile 9/1, Waldgeist colt who made a winning start to his career in a 1m Bath maiden 15 days ago. That wasn't a strong race but he was well on top at the finish and can be expected to improve.
Overcame inexperience to win Bath maiden two weeks ago (1m, good); can do much better.

4th (1) Glittering Legend (3/1 +0%)
Glittering Legend

3
3/1(+0%)
(1) Glittering Legend 3/1, Left 7f Doncaster debut behind when winning a 1m Goodwood maiden (good) 10 weeks later, proving well suited by the longer trip. Likely to go on to even better things but conceding weight to Anniversary may prove just beyond him.
Big step forward at Goodwood this month (1m, good) & form has been well advertised since.

5th (3) Archie's Angel (11/1 -144%)
Archie's Angel

11/1(-144%)
(3) Archie's Angel 11/1, Won on 7f Haydock debut in July and stepped up on that form when 5 lengths second of 12 in a 1m Salisbury novice (good to soft) 16 days ago. More will be needed again here.
Promising debut win backed up by solid second behind a good prospect 16 days ago; ground ?.

14:20 Epsom Stakes (Class 2) 8f Race Class Flow

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

In what looks a fascinating contest with a view to the future, GLITTERING LEGEND gets a tentative nod. The son of Too Darn Hot left a low-key debut well behind to score in the style of a smart prospect over a mile at Goodwood and, with further improvement likely, he can get the better of some similarly promising rivals. Anniversary showed a likeable attitude when getting off the mark at the first time of asking over a mile at Newmarket and he can give the selection most to think about. Bath winner The Green Mile has to be taken seriously too.

ANNIVERSARY is entered in the Group 1 Futurity at Doncaster next month and can set himself up for a possible tilt at that race by following up last month's Newmarket debut success. Glittering Legend can follow him home.

Anniversary and GLITTERING LEGEND appeal most, with the latter taken to confirm the serious promise of his Goodwood win.

Forest Gate

7/2(+13%)
(2) Forest Gate 7/2, Fair maiden who posted a good 1¼ lengths second of 10 to Sir Lowry's Pass in novice at Goodwood (9.9f, good) 26 days ago. Needs considering.
Sir Lowry's Pass overhauled him late on at Goodwood (1m2f, good); has 7lb swing with him.

Did well to win at Goodwood; Forest Gate (2nd) has 7lb swing but this is a useful prospect.

Angel Rose

100/1(-150%)
(5) Angel Rose 100/1, Failed to progress from her debut when sixth of 9 in maiden at Ffos Las (8f, heavy) 30 days ago. Up in trip with more needed.
Modest form on debut (7f, AW) and not so good at Ffos Las (1m, heavy) later in August.

5th (6) Games People Play (9/4 +25%)
Games People Play

2.25
9/4(+25%)
(6) Games People Play 9/4, Fair maiden. Recorded a solid second of 14 in maiden at Carlisle (11.2f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Blinkers replace cheekpieces now and can't be discounted.
Carlisle second (1m3f, soft) last time; switches headgear; should be seriously involved.

Trapper John

(4) Trapper John 80/1, 100/1, eleventh of 12 in novice at Kempton (8f) on debut. Off 7 months and this Nathaniel gelding needs to take a big step forward.
Stoutly bred; 100-1 and always behind for novice at Kempton (1m, AW) in February.

10

(3) Rickshaw 10/1, Cracksman gelding made a promising start when third of 6 in maiden at Pontefract (8f, good to firm) 10 days ago. Should have more to offer, especially now stepping up in trip. Player.
Others have better form but he looks sure to improve, with this longer trip surely a help.

14:55 Epsom Stakes (Class 4) 10f  Race Class Flow

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

Lasting Love wasn't disgraced when runner-up to a potentially smart filly at Goodwood and another prominent showing from the daughter of Lope De Vega is forecast. That said, she may have to fill the same berth again, this time behind SIR LOWRY'S PASS. Ed Walker's colt overcame a tardy start to beat Forest Gate cosily over the same C&D and he can make light of a 7lb winner's penalty. Games People Play also enters calculations, for all that the step back in trip may not be ideal.

Harry Charlton's RICKSHAW promises to be well suited by this step up in trip so is fancied to build on his debut Pontefract third and edge out Goodwood-scorer Sir Lowry's Pass. Both Lasting Love and Games People Play have the form to play a leading part too.

Five of these look in serious contention but SIR LOWRY'S PASS, despite his penalty, is taken to follow up his Goodwood win.

2.75
11/4(+31%)
(1) Miller Spirit 11/4, Bagged his third win of 2024 with a career best in 10-runner handicap over C&D 17 days ago, always holding on. Up another 3 lb but he's not taken lightly in his current mood.
Jump Jockeys Derby over C&D (soft) latest was his third win of the season; leading player.

(4) Gallant Lion 4/1, Racked up a 4-timer last summer for Tony Carroll. Yet to score for his current yard but he suffered a poor run when eighth of 9 in handicap at Chester (10.3f, soft) 15 days ago. Possibilities off an easing mark.
Below form first run on soft ground and not proven (one attempt) over quite this far.

(8) Thursday 15/2, Back to winning ways at Lingfield in August. Very good second of 9 in handicap here (10.1f, soft) 17 days ago, clear of rest. Ought to be in the shake-up once more.
Went close over 1m2f here (soft) latest; form at 11.4f-1m4f (five races) is not so good.

Cambria Legend

5

Bit to prove after latest start and on soft, but Chester 1m4f win was a comfortable one.

Organic

16
16/1(-191%)
(7) Organic 16/1, Is enjoying an excellent season and bagged her third success in 1m Beverley seller in July. Good second of 8 in handicap at Newmarket (9f) 8 days ago so can go well again.
Having a good season and acts on soft, but unraced beyond 1m2f and this will be a slog.

12/1(-167%)
(2) Mark Of Gold 12/1, Pulled up in handicap hurdle at Sandown (19.8f) in April. Successful in 2m Flat handicap at Goodwood when last seen on the level though so very much one to consider off a handy-looking mark for a yard with an excellent record in this.
Won at Goodwood (2m, heavy) last May on his only Flat race in the last three years.

15:30 Epsom Handicap (Class 4) 12f Race Class Flow

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

A return to class 4 company proved just the tonic for MILLER SPIRIT when he took top honours in the Jump Jockeys Derby over C&D earlier this month. That was the four-year-old's first appearance at this track and a 3lb nudge up the ratings may not prevent him from completing a double. Fellow in-form rival Organic is a potential improver up in distance and she could prove the biggest danger, ahead of Thursday.

MARK OF GOLD returns to this sphere on an attractive mark so is fancied to continue his connections' excellent record in this event. Both Thursday (second choice) and Organic arrive in great form and can have a say in this competitive handicap. C&D scorer Miller Spirit, a stablemate of the selection, completes the shortlist.

There is clearly something to prove for most of these but not for MILLER SPIRIT (nap), who gets the vote ahead of Cambria Legend.

(3) Simply Sondheim 20/1, Prolific sort for George Baker but remains winless for current yard, again below his best when fifth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (12f, 14/1) 22 days ago. Free-going sort now has cheekpieces on 1st time but others are preferred.

Won AW novice this month and is in good hands to progress; could go well on handicap debut.

(9) Dashinwhitesargent 7/1, Looked more straightforward when producing an improved effort to win a 9-runner handicap at this C&D (good) 34 days ago. This is tougher but he remains unexposed at the trip and can't be ruled out.
Won over C&D last month on first crack at 1m2f and could have more to offer at the trip.

Hit with 9lb rise for recent Chester win but had lots in hand; entitled to respect.

Arrives in good heart and he won in May 2023 on his only run on soft going.

Drops in trip with blinkers on 1st time.

Frequently placed this season; can be in the shake-up if handling the conditions.

16:05 Epsom Handicap (Class 3) 10f Race Class Flow

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

An improver when stepped up to this trip over C&D last month, DASHINWHITESARGENT is likely to have plenty more improvement forthcoming and as long as he handles the forecast heavy ground, he can follow up. That may be at the main expense of last week's easy Chester winner Qitaal, although the unexposed Winston's Tipple got off the mark in determined fashion at Lingfield and has to be considered closely too.

Andrew Balding's handicap newcomer WINSTON'S TIPPLE appeals as the type to progress further and he can follow up his recent Lingfield succcess at the chief expense of Qitaal, who proved better than ever when scoring at Chester last week. The thoroughly reliable Fast Steps should also be in the mix again.

The in-form FAST STEPS has a good record here and gets the nod ahead of Dashinwhitesargent.

Won on debut in heavy ground in France but well beaten on both British starts.

16:40 Epsom Handicap (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Into Battle finished third over 1m3f in this grade at Kempton last month and he is interesting on this considerable drop in trip off a 1lb lower rating. However, the vote goes to the in-form ARKHALIA FLYNN, who may have missed out on the hat-trick but produced another pleasing effort to fill the runner-up spot at Haydock. The son of Ulysses goes off only 1lb higher and can continue his forward momentum. Glam Squad is another to note.

ARKHALIA FLYNN improved further when runner-up at Haydock 22 days ago, going down fighting in his hat-trick bid, so he is taken to resume winning ways in his current form. He can see off the challenge of Condor Pasa, who remains capable of better making only his second handicap start, with Escape Act also considered.

The unexposed bottom weight ESCAPE ACT proved well suited by soft ground at Doncaster in July and earns the vote.

Hodler

3.5
7/2(-27%)
(2) Hodler 7/2, Goes well at Epsom and snapped a lengthy losing run in fine style over C&D 17 days ago, 2½ lengths too strong for re-opposing Redredrobin with plenty in hand. 6 lb rise may not prevent the follow up.
Convincing win over C&D on soft ground this month and he's a key player.

Redredrobin

12
12/1(-100%)
(9) Redredrobin 12/1, Has been an excellent servant for connections, recording win number 8 over this C&D last month. Solid runner-up finishes behind Tanmawwy and Hodler on her last 2 visits here and she's very likely to give it another good go.
Two-time C&D winner who was runner-up over C&D (soft) last time; could be in the mix.

Tanmawwy

8.5
17/2(+15%)
(5) Tanmawwy 17/2, Tumbled in the weights and finally took advantage in 14-runner C&D handicap a month ago. Held up in a steadily-run race at Haydock latest so that isn't a race to judge him too harshly on. One to consider.
Well beaten at Haydock last time but won over C&D two starts ago and not discounted.

6th (1) Society Lion (22/1 -83%)
Society Lion

22
22/1(-83%)
(1) Society Lion 22/1, Back-to-back winner at Yarmouth and Doncaster (up to 1m) in May/June. Heavy defeat in hat-trick bid at Chester and while he returned to form at Kempton last month, the assessor may just have him now.
Won two in a row earlier in the season; solid fourth last time; might not be far away.

7th (8) Marlay Park (7/1 -27%)
Marlay Park

7/1(-27%)
(8) Marlay Park 7/1, Four-time C&D winner who stuck to his task pretty well when fifth to Tanmawwy here last month. No impression behind stablemate Hodler last time though and he needs things to fall right given habitual slow starts. Cheekpieces off.
Soundly beaten over C&D last time but this four-time course winner is not ruled out.

8th (3) Little Boy Blue (33/1 -106%)
Little Boy Blue

33/1(-106%)
(3) Little Boy Blue 33/1, Well prepared following 8 months off when making a winning reappearance over C&D in July. Gave his running next couple of runs but big backward step at Chepstow last time. Fully-fledged rider back in the saddle.
Won over C&D in July but has to produce more than he's managed on his three runs since.
10
9th (10) Good Karma (40/1 -60%)
Good Karma

40/1(-60%)
(10) Good Karma 40/1, Has failed to beat a rival on his last 4 outings, eased off over C&D last time so has an awful lot to prove at present fitted with a hood for the first time.
Well treated on C&D form as recent as July but has struggled on his four runs since.

10th (7) Autumn Festival (16/1 +52%)
Autumn Festival

16/1(+52%)
(7) Autumn Festival 16/1, Third on reappearance at Thirsk but the wheels have come off this term. Readily passed over until showing some spark.
Has tumbled down the weights but for good reason; a major turnaround is required.

17:15 Epsom Handicap (Class 4) 7f  Race Class Flow

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

Miguel justified favouritism in commanding style at Musselburgh and has to be considered off 7lb higher, but this represents a step up in grade. With that in mind, COME ON YOU SPURS looks the way to go. Richard Spencer's three-year-old struck by a length and a half at Sandown and the handicapper may have let her off with only a 3lb rise. Hodler completes the shortlist.

HODLER ended his losing spell in emphatic fashion over this C&D 17 days ago, and given he retains plenty of handicap scope, a subsequent 6 lb rise looks within his range. The selection may have most to fear from the last-time-out winning 3-y-os Miguel and Come On You Spurs.

The locally trained HODLER returned to form recently with a commanding soft-ground C&D win and he remains well treated.

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.
