(2) Change For Good 12/1, Foaled February 21. Blue Point colt. Half-brother to 7f winner White Umbrella. Dam 2-y-o 7f winner. Market check advised on debut. Has fair target to aim at on debut and yard is 0-11 with 2yos this season.
1
2nd (1) (3.5/1 -40%) Noo Point
3.5
3.5/1(-40%)
(1) Noo Point 3.5/1, Fairly useful colt. Winner at Chepstow in June. 52/10, 5¾ lengths sixth of 10 to Zorken in listed race at La Teste (6f, good) 53 days ago. Respected back in lower grade here. Held in French Listed race latest but he's respected back in calmer waters at new trip.
4
3rd (4) (2.5/1 +25%) Juantorena
2.5
2.5/1(+25%)
(4) Juantorena 2.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden who posted another fair effort when fourth of 8 in minor event at Southwell (7.1f) 17 days ago. Visor on 1st time. Enters calculations. Has leading claims on his best form and he could find more with a visor added.
5
4th (5) (10/1 +64%) Pick Your Battles
10
10/1(+64%)
(5) Pick Your Battles 10/1, Twice-raced maiden. 33/1, ninth of 12 in minor event at Salisbury (8f, good to firm) 7 days ago. Work to do. Still very early days but he needs a transformation back in trip.
6
5th (6) (20/1 -25%) Royal Tapestry
20
20/1(-25%)
(6) Royal Tapestry 20/1, Twice-raced maiden. 15/2, eighth of 10 in minor event at Kempton (7f) 22 days ago. Up against it. Some promise at Kempton on debut but he was tailed off there last time.
8
6th (8) (8/1 -167%) Queen's Music
8
8/1(-167%)
(8) Queen's Music 8/1, Posted promising second of 10 in maiden at Lingfield (7f, AW, 3/1) on debut 15 days ago. Entitled to do better and holds strong claims. Made a good start when going close at Lingfield (7f) 15 days ago and she's a key player.
3
7th (3) (10/1 -11%) Clyde Bay
10
10/1(-11%)
(3) Clyde Bay 10/1, Foaled May 6. 65,000 gns foal, 40,000 gns yearling, Cable Bay colt. Brother to useful winner up to 6f Jouska and half-brother to several winners, including useful winner up to 7f Wasim and 2-y-o 6f winner Object. Interesting newcomer. Yard won this with a well-backed newcomer in 2021 and he needs watching in market.
7
8th (7) (3.5/1 +86%) Timebar
3.5
3.5/1(+86%)
(7) Timebar 3.5/1, Once-raced maiden. 16/1, eighth of 11 in maiden at Ascot (6f, good to soft) on debut 47 days ago. Improvement required. Made a low-key key start at Ascot (6f) and he needs to leave that form a long way behind.
LTO Selection:
14:15 Epsom Stakes (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
QUEEN'S MUSIC shaped with considerable promise when a neck second on debut at Lingfield late last month and she is taken to come out on top switching to the turf for the first time. Noo Point ran well enough in a French Listed race last time and is a major player dropping back into novice company. Newcomers Change For Good and Clyde Bay both need market checks.
Preference is for QUEEN'S MUSIC, who should have learnt plenty from her recent encouraging Lingfield debut. Juantorena and Noo Point look the likeliest dangers.
The vote goes to QUEEN'S MUSIC, who is a half-sister to six winners and made a good start when going close at Lingfield 15 days ago.
(4) Marlay Park 2.75/1, Three-time C&D winner, including this race in 2021. After 8 weeks off, not discredited when fourth of 6 in handicap (9/2) at this C&D (good) 17 days ago. Merits consideration having dropped below his last winning mark. Triple C&D winner but he's not made an impact here in last two runs; needs to find more.
8
2nd (8) (11/1 +8%) Secret Strength
11
11/1(+8%)
(8) Secret Strength 11/1, Latest win at Newbury in June. Not in the same form as previous outing when fifth of 7 in handicap (12/1) at this C&D (good) 17 days ago, reverting to his slow-starting ways. Capable of getting involved off his current mark. Won at Newbury in June but he's been generally disappointing since; others preferred.
6
3rd (6) (4/1 +38%) Magical Merlin
4
4/1(+38%)
(6) Magical Merlin 4/1, Succcessful at Lingfield in June. Runner-up at this course (6f) in July before below-form eleventh of 13 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good to firm, 12/1) 28 days ago. Could bounce back with cheekpieces on 1st time. 3yo who is not easy to predict and has something to prove back up in trip; new headgear.
1
4th (1) (3/1 +25%) Larado
3
3/1(+25%)
(1) Larado 3/1, Goes well at this track and returned to form when second of 7 in handicap (6/1) back at this C&D (good) 17 days ago. Not taken lightly from 2 lb below his last winning mark. 2-5 at Epsom and he returned to form with a good second over C&D last time; respected.
9
5th (9) (20/1 +20%) Peace Of Mine
20
20/1(+20%)
(9) Peace Of Mine 20/1, Made a winning return at Nottingham in April but hasn't gone on from that effort since, faring no better in first-time tongue strap when sixth of 8 in handicap (20/1) at Newbury (7f, good) 27 days ago. Only 1lb higher than for last win but she's lost her way and needs to turn things around.
5
6th (5) (4/1 +11%) Redredrobin
4
4/1(+11%)
(5) Redredrobin 4/1, Five wins from 10 runs this year, recording back-to-back C&D victories this summer. 3/1, again ran well when third of 7 in handicap at Chepstow (7.1f, good) 17 days ago, nearest finish. Respected. Likeable mare who has won five times this season and she should give it another good shot.
3
7th (3) (18/1 -29%) Bowman
18
18/1(-29%)
(3) Bowman 18/1, C&D winner. Again below form when last of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW, 25/1) on his latest outing in November. Cheekpieces left off on his return from 9-month absence. His last win came off 1lb higher over C&D and he needs watching in market on comeback.
2
8th (2) (33/1 +0%) Baileysgutfeeling
33
33/1(+0%)
(2) Baileysgutfeeling 33/1, Form has gone the wrong way, last of 12 in handicap at Haydock (8.2f, good to firm, 80/1) 5 days ago. Others preferred. On dangerous mark but he's hard to predict and was tailed off last time; risks attached.
LTO Selection:
14:50 Epsom Handicap (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
The presence of both Bowman and Larado suggests that this could be run at a solid tempo and as a result it may set up nicely for MAGICAL MERLIN. The selection has cheekpieces on for the first time and has often shaped as though this trip would be within his reach, so the three-year-old is taken to add to his tally. Marlay Park hasn't been firing of late but is dangerous here.
RESTRICT showed the benefit of a recent run when edged out only on the line at Newbury on his turf debut 16 days ago, so he is taken to build on that to resume winning ways. The 3-y-o can get the better of Larado, who bounced back to form at this C&D last time, while Redredrobin continues in good heart and can be thereabouts once more.
Preference is for the lightly raced 3yo RESTRICT, who resumed his progress with a near-miss on his turf debut at Newbury last time.
(3) Cardano 5.5/1, Useful handicapper for Ian Williams who stripped fitter for his return when runner-up at Windsor. Stamina stretched next time and remains potentially well handicapped back from a breathing op. 7yo who is hard to predict and has not won on turf since 2019; has had wind surgery.
5
2nd (5) (14/1 +36%) Red Flyer
14
14/1(+36%)
(5) Red Flyer 14/1, Enjoyed a productive 2022 campaign but just respectable efforts at best this time around, running poorly in re-fitted headgear latest. On dangerous mark but last win was 16 months ago and he's finished in rear last twice.
8
3rd (8) (20/1 -67%) Western Stars
20
20/1(-67%)
(8) Western Stars 20/1, 17/2, first run since leaving Ed Dunlop when second of 7 in seller at Goodwood (11.2f, soft) 18 days ago. Others more persuasive. Runner-up at Goodwood on his stable debut but that was in a seller and he's now 1-13.
7
4th (7) (6/1 +76%) Sophosc
6
6/1(+76%)
(7) Sophosc 6/1, Hasn't been operating at his best on the Flat so far this year and opposable. Five wins under both codes last year but he's been generally disappointing in 2023.
4
5th (4) (2.75/1 +45%) Fulfilled
2.75
2.75/1(+45%)
(4) Fulfilled 2.75/1, Progressive son of Ulysses who made it 2 wins for the campaign under a confident hands-and-heels ride at Lingfield (11.6f, good to firm) in June. Close third at Windsor next time before excuses at Beverley. Player. Two wins in June and he ran into a major improver in a Class 2 event latest; in the mix.
6
6th (6) (9/1 +10%) Premiere Ligne
9
9/1(+10%)
(6) Premiere Ligne 9/1, Dual winner in France and stepped up on first 2 starts for current yard when runner-up at Lingfield in June. Put in another good shift when fourth at Brighton (11.9f, good) but found short run of good form coming to a halt in first-time headgear here. Ex-French; looks interesting on his best form this season but he flopped over C&D latest.
9
7th (9) (4.5/1 +18%) Meleri
4.5
4.5/1(+18%)
(9) Meleri 4.5/1, Went close in handicap at Newbury (10f, good) and decent fourth at Goodwood since. This tougher, however. Went close at Newbury on penultimate run and was fair fourth at Goodwood latest; respected.
1
8th (1) (4.5/1 -80%) The Whipmaster
4.5
4.5/1(-80%)
(1) The Whipmaster 4.5/1, Improved last season, completing 4-timer in the first half of the year. Took advantage of a falling mark when resuming winning ways at Windsor in June and put a couple of underwhelming runs behind him when going close there 4 weeks ago. Merits consideration. Six-time turf winner who went close in a Racing League event at Windsor latest; key player.
LTO Selection:
15:25 Epsom Handicap (Class 4) 12f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
A wide-open renewal but slight preference is for PRINCE ALEX, who has not been with Dominic Ffrench Davis very long and shaped like a win could be imminent when third last time. Fulfilled remains firmly on the improve and is likely to be in the thick of things once more. The Whipmaster was a touch unlucky not to win at Windsor a month ago and shouldn't be far away.
CARDANO has made a positive start for this stable and is worth another chance off a tempting mark having been stretched by the longer trip at Yarmouth last time. The Whipmaster went close at Windsor 4 weeks ago so is shortlisted, with Fulfilled and Prince Alex others to consider.
This can go to THE WHIPMASTER, who went close in a Racing League event at Windsor last time and is a big player if he can back that up.
(6) Lethal Touch 1.88/1, 11/2, career best when winning 11-runner handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 27 days ago, well positioned. Expected to be bang there. Won eased down over C&D last time and was as good as ever with that success; big player.
2
2nd (2) (5/1 +0%) Arenas Del Tiempo
5
5/1(+0%)
(2) Arenas Del Tiempo 5/1, C&D winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2021. Fifth of 7 in handicap at Sandown (9f, good to soft, 7/2). Off 121 days. Free-going sort. On long losing run and she's been disappointing in last two runs; others preferred.
5
3rd (5) (6/1 +14%) Lost In Time
6
6/1(+14%)
(5) Lost In Time 6/1, Latest win at Yarmouth in July. 11/2, respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Windsor (10f, good to firm) 32 days ago. Won off reduced mark at Yarmouth in July but he's not gone on from that; others preferred.
4
4th (4) (4.5/1 -64%) Mrembo
4.5
4.5/1(-64%)
(4) Mrembo 4.5/1, 3 wins from 9 runs this year. Won 12-runner handicap (7/4) at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) 10 days ago. Carries penalty. Respected in hat-trick bid. 10lb higher under a penalty for her latest win but she's respected in her hat-trick bid.
7
5th (7) (7/1 +30%) Dotties Star
7
7/1(+30%)
(7) Dotties Star 7/1, Produced a laboured effort when fourth of 5 in handicap (9/1) at this C&D (good to soft) 42 days ago. Nine-race maiden who flashed his tail when fourth here last time; needs to find more.
8
6th (8) (14/1 +36%) The Conqueror
14
14/1(+36%)
(8) The Conqueror 14/1, Continues out of sorts, sixth of 8 in handicap at Bath (8f, good) 14 days ago, slowly away. Back up in trip. Three wins in Germany but he's yet to be placed after seven runs in Britain; opposable.
3
7th (3) (40/1 -186%) Millions Memories
40
40/1(-186%)
(3) Millions Memories 40/1, Latest win at Salisbury in June. Last of 7 in handicap at Newbury (12f, good to firm, 14/1) 79 days ago. Triple turf winner but he's not easy to predict and needs to bounce back after a break.
1
8th (1) (9/1 +10%) Semser
9
9/1(+10%)
(1) Semser 9/1, Latest win at Chelmsford City in May. 12/1, bit below form seventh of 12 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 51 days ago, slowly away. Temperament now under suspicion. Four-time AW winner but he's 0-8 on turf and has been well below form in last two runs.
LTO Selection:
16:00 Epsom Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
MREMBO arrives here seeking a hat-trick after wins at Bath and Windsor recently and she can add to her winning sequence here. Jonathan Portman's charge is 10lb higher than last time but the in-form filly should not be underestimated. Lethal Touch is the biggest danger after a good win over C&D last month and she appears likely to be thereabouts once again, while Lost In Time also deserves a closer look.
LETHAL TOUCH looked better than ever when scoring over C&D last month and should make another bold bid. Mrembo is the obvious threat as she goes for the hat-trick, with C&D winner Arenas del Tiempo best of the others.
Hat-trick seeker Mrembo is respected but preference is for LETHAL TOUCH, who was as good as ever with her win over C&D last time.
(3) Feyha 5/1, Respectable fourth of 8 in handicap (14/1) at Chepstow (10f, good to firm) 10 days ago. Back up in trip. Something to find on form. No impact in five runs for this yard and was well held off this mark last time.
4
2nd (4) (2.5/1 +25%) Ectocross
2.5
2.5/1(+25%)
(4) Ectocross 2.5/1, Winner over 10f here in July and produced another sound effort at this track when second of 5 over that same trip 56 days ago, running on. Not taken lightly. Win and good second over 1m2f here last twice and he's respected back up in trip.
9
3rd (9) (2.5/1 +64%) Chinthurst
2.5
2.5/1(+64%)
(9) Chinthurst 2.5/1, In frame at Windsor and Brighton on his first 2 outings this season and shaped as if stripping fitter for the run after a 4-month break when eighth of 13 in handicap at the former course (10f, good to firm) 10 days ago. Up in trip. Inconsistent seven-race maiden who was well held at Windsor last week; others preferred.
6
4th (6) (10/1 +9%) Corporate Raider
10
10/1(+9%)
(6) Corporate Raider 10/1, Winner at Yarmouth in June. 9/1, creditable third of 6 in handicap at Leicester (10f, good to firm) 22 days ago, well positioned. Up in trip. Capable of giving another good account but may prove vulnerable to less-exposed sorts. Only 1lb higher than for his win but he's now 1-15 and is untried at this trip.
2
5th (2) (4/1 -45%) Sapristi
4
4/1(-45%)
(2) Sapristi 4/1, Winner at Fairyhouse in June. 6/1, first run since leaving John S. O'Donoghue when good second of 6 in handicap at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) 19 days ago. Shortlist material. Good second at Windsor on recent stable debut and has claims if she can back that up.
7
6th (7) (40/1 -21%) Carouselle
40
40/1(-21%)
(7) Carouselle 40/1, Has gone backwards from a mildly promising debut at Brighton last year and has failed to beat a rival in 2 starts in handicaps, so looks very tricky to fancy. Regressive maiden who has finished tailed off in both her handicaps; lots to prove.
1
7th (1) (10/1 -11%) Aurora Charm
10
10/1(-11%)
(1) Aurora Charm 10/1, Lightly-raced maiden. First run since leaving Roger Varian when fourth of 6 in handicap at Sandown (9f, heavy, 18/1) 43 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Needs a couple of these to falter. Well held in four runs for two yards and she needs improvement at this new trip.
8
8th (8) (80/1 -21%) Estehwadh
80
80/1(-21%)
(8) Estehwadh 80/1, Arrives on the back of heavy defeats (finished last) at Brighton and Chepstow, so makes little appeal stepping up significantly in trip. Out of sorts in last two runs and has plenty to prove in an experiment at this trip.
LTO Selection:
16:35 Epsom Handicap (Class 6) 12f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
ANTICIPATING made a pleasing start to her handicap career when running on well into fourth over an extended 1m3f at Windsor on her latest outing and she gets the nod. Ectocross is feared most after finishing second over 1m2f at this venue last time, although he was wayward in the closing stages that day, while Sapristi could also have a say.
ANTICIPATING showed improved form despite looking in need of a stronger gallop when fourth at Windsor last month, and with several rivals who can go forward in opposition here, she should get a more favourable set-up and is worth chancing to make her second handicap start a winning one. Sapristi ran well on her first outing for Tom Clover last time and also makes plenty of appeal, as does Ectocross, who has ran well over shorter trips here on his last 2 outings.
The ex-Irish SAPRISTI (nap) made a good start for her new yard when runner-up at Windsor and is a big player if she can back that up.
(4) New Heights 5.5/1, 4/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 10-runner handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 56 days ago. Player if headgear has same positive effect. Made it 2-2 here when landing a C&D handicap in July; big player again after a short break.
2
2nd (2) (9/1 +18%) Chips And Rice
9
9/1(+18%)
(2) Chips And Rice 9/1, 2 wins from 6 runs this year. Latest win at Brighton in July. Ninth of 10 in handicap at Sandown (9f, good, 9/1) 25 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Won at Brighton in July but has taken two backward steps since; needs to get back on track.
12
3rd (12) (6/1 +0%) Roundabout Silver
6
6/1(+0%)
(12) Roundabout Silver 6/1, 16/5, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Bath (8f, good) 14 days ago, readily. Can give a good account. Won at Bath latest but this is tougher and he could have competition for the lead.
1
4th (1) (6/1 -9%) Bowland Park
6
6/1(-9%)
(1) Bowland Park 6/1, C&D winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2021. 11/4, respectable sixth of 10 in handicap at this C&D (good) 17 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. On long losing run and he didn't shine when favourite over C&D latest; headgear now added.
3
5th (3) (20/1 +9%) Shoot To Kill
20
20/1(+9%)
(3) Shoot To Kill 20/1, Latest win at Brighton in August. Fourth of 7 in handicap at this course (7f, good, 7/1) 17 days ago. Back up in trip. Sprung a 40-1 surprise at Brighton last month but he didn't match that form here last time.
10
6th (10) (22/1 -120%) Bobby Dassler
22
22/1(-120%)
(10) Bobby Dassler 22/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time, good fourth of 10 in handicap (6/1) at this C&D (good) 17 days ago, going off too hard. First run for yard after leaving Tom Ward. Not taken lightly. On winning mark and has claims if he's allowed to dictate on his stable dictate.
8
7th (8) (18/1 +18%) Trais Fluors
18
18/1(+18%)
(8) Trais Fluors 18/1, Latest win at Goodwood in June. Seventh of 10 in handicap at this C&D (good, 16/1) 17 days ago. Won at Goodwood in June but he's not hit the same level since; down the list.
11
8th (11) (9/1 -6%) Otago
9
9/1(-6%)
(11) Otago 9/1, Course winner. 10/1, creditable third of 10 in handicap at this C&D (good) 17 days ago, helped by being held up in strongly-run race. Dual course winner who finished well for a close third over C&D last time; respected.
5
9th (5) (5.5/1 +27%) La Maquina
5.5
5.5/1(+27%)
(5) La Maquina 5.5/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2021. 9/1, creditable third of 7 in handicap at this course (7f, good) 17 days ago, slowly away. Back up in trip. On dangerous mark and was an eyecatcher over 7f here last time; in the mix back up in trip.
7
10th (7) (8/1 +20%) Grey Fox
8
8/1(+20%)
(7) Grey Fox 8/1, Respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm, 15/2) 19 days ago, not ideally placed. Has to be taken seriously. Creditable efforts last twice and has possibilities if this sets up for his closing style.
6
11th (6) (6.5/1 -18%) Dion Baker
6.5
6.5/1(-18%)
(6) Dion Baker 6.5/1, Winner at Yarmouth in July. 4/1, good second of 11 in handicap at Yarmouth (8f, good) 18 days ago, clear of rest. Enters calculations. Has been knocking on the door in his last two starts and another bold bid is expected.
9
12th (9) (40/1 +0%) Whirlwind
40
40/1(+0%)
(9) Whirlwind 40/1, Seventh of 8 in handicap at Haydock (10.2f, good to firm, 16/1), slowly away. Off 91 days. Still lightly raced but he needs a transformation back in trip after wind surgery.
LTO Selection:
17:10 Epsom Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
The ability to handle this unique track often counts for plenty, and that could see NEW HEIGHTS record back-to-back course and distance victories. The daughter of Intello bounced back to form in first-time cheekpieces (retained) 56 days ago and a subsequent 3lb rise looks more than fair. Dion Baker can follow the selection home ahead of the Daniel and Claire Kubler-trained Bowland Park.
DION BAKER arrives on the back of a couple of narrow defeats at Brighton/Yarmouth and this track should suit his style. Grey Fox has been shaping well of late so is another to consider along with New Heights, who is 2 from 2 over this C&D.
This looks wide open but OTAGO gets the vote ahead of New Heights and Dion Baker.
(6) Shot Of Love 6/1, Winner at Wetherby in June. 22/1 and hooded for 1st time, got back on track after a couple of below-par efforts when third of 12 in handicap at Thirsk (8f, good to soft) 13 days ago. In the mix. Won over 7f at Wetherby in June; stayed 1m well enough on latest; solid contender.
2
2nd (2) (3.33/1 -11%) Overnight Oats
3.33
3.33/1(-11%)
(2) Overnight Oats 3.33/1, Off the mark at Carlisle (6.9f) in July and displayed a brilliant attitude when following up at Sandown (7f) later that month. Shaped better than the bare result after making his move right away from the main action when eighth at Newbury recently and fancied to be bang there upped in trip. Won 2 of first 3 starts after hood fitted; below best latest and unproven over new trip.
5
3rd (5) (6/1 +14%) Storymaker
6
6/1(+14%)
(5) Storymaker 6/1, 17/2, creditable fifth of 9 in handicap at Brighton (7f, good) 24 days ago. Back up in trip. Still looking for first success. Maiden; onepaced in handicaps at about 1m and 7f; cheekpieces discarded.
1
4th (1) (2.75/1 +39%) Kentucky Bluegrass
2.75
2.75/1(+39%)
(1) Kentucky Bluegrass 2.75/1, Left form of sole 2-y-o start well behind when landing novice events at Redcar and Lingfield on first 2 starts of this season. Has failed to threaten in a trio of handicaps, though. Won two 7f novices early in season; quite encouraging handicap runs before eased latest.
3
5th (3) (9/1 -50%) Canadiansmokeshow
9
9/1(-50%)
(3) Canadiansmokeshow 9/1, Winner at Brighton in June. Fifth of 8 in handicap (6/1) at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) 34 days ago. Back up in trip. Others preferred. Won 1m Brighton maiden in June; held over 7f since but part to play over longer trip.
4
6th (4) (3.5/1 +0%) Rose Bolt

(4) Rose Bolt 3.5/1, Winner at Bath in July. 12/1, failed to improve when seventh of 14 on handicap debut at Kempton (8f) 31 days ago, racing wide from poor draw. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Made hard work of winning 1m Bath maiden; no real impression on handicap debut since.
LTO Selection:
17:45 Epsom Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
CANADIANSMOKESHOW struck in a first-time hood over the mile at Brighton two starts ago, before looking outpaced over 7f at Newmarket last month. Eased 1lb in the ratings and back up in trip, Sean Woods' filly might be worth taking a chance on. Rose Bolt wasn't disgraced on her handicap debut at Kempton but she could be more effective now back on turf, while Kentucky Bluegrass heads the remainder.
Impossible to rule out any of the sextet but preference is for OVERNIGHT OATS, who shaped better than the bare result when down the field at Newbury just over a fortnight ago and can resume his progress now upped in trip. Rose Bolt wasn't helped by the way things unfolded on her handicap debut at Kempton last month, so she may emerge as the main threat now fitted with first-time headgear, with Shot of Love rounding off the shortlist.
Shot Of Love comes here following a good run at Thirsk but it may pay to give KENTUCKY BLUEGRASS another chance.

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.
