1st (6)  (3.33/1 -21%)What A Question |
3.33/1(-21%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) What A Question 3.33/1, Foaled April 5. 55,000 gns yearling, Lope De Vega filly. Half-sister to winner up to 1m Arranmore. Dam, 1m-11f winner, half-sister to smart winner up to 1m (stayed 1¼m) Steip Amach. Could go well on debut for in-form yard. Enough to like on pedigree and stable often gets them ready first time; respected. |
|||
2nd (7)  (10/1 -150%)Adaay In Devon |
10/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Adaay In Devon 10/1, Speedily bred and showed promise first time up when fifth of 11 in maiden at Wolverhampton (5.1f) last month, faring best of those from off the pace. Can make her presence felt with improvement to come. Showed ability on her Wolverhampton debut, but will need to improve if she is to figure. |
|||
3rd (9)  (6/1 +40%)She Wore No Jewels |
6/1(+40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) She Wore No Jewels 6/1, Foaled February 11. 58,000 gns foal, Ten Sovereigns filly. Dam Italian 2-y-o 6f winner. Yard can ready a newcomer. Stable often gets them ready first time and market informative. |
|||
4th (2)  (5.5/1 +45%)Phoenix Duchess |
5.5/1(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Phoenix Duchess 5.5/1, Ran green on debut when fifth in a Newmarket maiden (5f, good) in May, but went backwards from that effort when eighth of 12 in similar event at Yarmouth (5.2f, good to firm) later in the month. May yet do better, though. Some ability in first two starts, but looks one for nurseries. |
|||
5th (10)  (200/1 -203%)Land Of Magic |
200/1(-203%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Land Of Magic 200/1, Very green when well held at Kempton on her first start and fared little better at Salisbury 20 days ago. Easy enough to look elsewhere. Well beaten in both starts last month; easily passed over. |
|||
6th (8)  (12/1 -50%)Perfect Spring |
12/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Perfect Spring 12/1, Foaled February 16. Oasis Dream filly. Dam, 7f winner (including at 2 yrs), half-sister to 11.5f winner Investigation. In good hands so could be capable of getting involved on debut. Stable does have 2yo winners first time out; market should indicate what is expected. |
|||
7th (5)  (3.5/1 +13%)Shirlaski |
3.5/1(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Shirlaski 3.5/1, Shaped as if in need of the experience when fifth of 7 in maiden at Ascot (5f, soft) on debut 35 days ago, form which has worked out well. Can progress from that first experience to get off the mark. Fifth of seven in red-hot hot Ascot maiden last month; should improve. |
|||
8th (3)  (7/1 +42%)Quorate |
7/1(+42%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Quorate 7/1, Foaled January 26. Havana Gold filly. Closely related to 2m winner Tomorrow's Angel and half-sister to 3 winners, including 6f-8.6f winner Kwela and 1½m winner Miss Giler. Stable can get them ready first time, but pedigree suggests she is going to need further. |
|||
9th (4)  (22/1 +33%)Reflexion Faite |
22/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Reflexion Faite 22/1, Bred for longer trips and never a threat when eighth of 12 in minor event at Windsor (6f, good to firm) on her first outing 18 days ago. Looks one for the longer term. Well held on last month's Windsor debut and may need more time. |
|||
10th (1)  (10/1 +17%)My Margie |
10/1(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) My Margie 10/1, Foaled April 9. €13,000 foal, £50,000 yearling, Dandy Man filly. Half-sister to 2 winners, notably useful winner up to 1m Chelsea Green. Makes appeal on paper. Stable can get them ready first time and worth a market check. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
What A Question has a lot going for her on paper and, along with fellow debutants Perfect Spring and She Wore No Jewels, warrants serious thought. However, the previous experience held by SHIRLASKI is a vital factor and, given the form of her debut is working out, the daughter of Eqtidaar appeals strongly in this intriguing maiden. Adaay In Devon also caught the eye with a strong finish on her racecourse bow at Wolverhampton and is another to consider.
SHIRLASKI shaped as if need of the experience when fifth at Ascot on debut last month, but that form has worked out well (the first 3 home all won on their next starts) and she is entitled to progress for a yard enioying a good season with its 2-y-os. She can open her account at the expense of Adaay In Devon, with What A Question the pick of the newcomers.
This can go to SHIRLASKI who finished fifth of seven in what has turned out to be a red-hot maiden at Ascot last month.

1st (1)  (0.53/1 +27%)Lucky Fifteen |
0.53/1(+27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Lucky Fifteen 0.53/1, Improving in leaps and bounds since going handicapping this year, off the mark at Chelmsford last week. Plenty to like about him physically and looks capable of following up under a penalty. Improving sort and 3lb well in under penalty for recent Chelmsford success. |
|||
2nd (3)  (33/1 -65%)Barrier |
33/1(-65%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Barrier 33/1, Australia filly who still looked in need of the experience when fourth of 7 in novice event at Ascot (8f, good) in September, nearest finish. However, tailed off at Newmarket on return so bit to prove now handicapping with headgear applied. Ran poorly on her Newmarket return; needs to bounce back on handicap debut; cheekpieces on. |
|||
3rd (2)  (5/1 +0%)Vegas Jack |
5/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Vegas Jack 5/1, Proved a different proposition on handicap bow/return when third of 9 at Haydock (8f, good to firm) 21 days ago, never nearer. Should improve for the step up in trip. Engaged 8.50 Haydock Thursday. Improved for switch to handicaps when a close third at Haydock; declared there yesterday. |
|||
4th (6)  (7.5/1 -50%)Pink Lily |
7.5/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Pink Lily 7.5/1, Has had plenty of racing already but remains on the upgrade, off the mark at Bath last month before good second under a penalty there 3 weeks ago. Should go well again. Exposed but consistent and running well lately; likely to go well again. |
|||
5th (5)  (22/1 -10%)Cosmic View |
22/1(-10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Cosmic View 22/1, Little solid form and was a remote third of 4 on handicap bow at Windsor 18 days ago. Headgear on. Hasn't shown much in four starts and needs the cheekpieces to make a difference. |
|||
6th (4)  (8/1 -14%)Shaaden |
8/1(-14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Shaaden 8/1, Showed promise sole start at 2 yrs when third at Salisbury but well below that form all 3 starts this year. Significantly up in trip. Hood on 1st time. Makes handicap debut. Not build on promising 2yo debut; up 3f in trip for handicap debut; hood on. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Recent Chelmsford winner LUCKY FIFTEEN has been highly progressive since making the switch to handicap company last month and Ralph Beckett's charge boasts strong credentials. He beat subsequent winner Lady Rascal when finishing in second at Newbury on his penultimate outing and could prove tough to peg back on his return to turf. The consistent Pink Lily is 6lb above her last winning mark but is still feared, while the unexposed Barrier is capable of improvement in first-time cheekpieces.
LUCKY FIFTEEN's form has taken off in handicaps this year and he has obvious claims of defying a penalty after his win at Chelmsford last week. Pink Lily continues to go forward so rates the main threat.
This looks a good chance for LUCKY FIFTEEN to follow up his Chelmsford success. He has a 6lb penalty to carry but is still 3lb well in.

1st (8)  (4.5/1 +18%)Crescent Lake |
4.5/1(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Crescent Lake 4.5/1, A dual winner at Dundalk, better than ever on third outing for current yard when successful at Chelmsford (14f) in April. Transferred that form to turf when also winning at this C&D the following month and again ran well at Salisbury last time. Shortlisted. C&D winner last month and worthy of consideration for last year's winning stable. |
|||
2nd (6)  (2.75/1 +0%)Ravens Ark |
2.75/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Ravens Ark 2.75/1, After 7 months off, ran well with the headgear left off when second of 8 in handicap at Ascot (12f, soft) in May, taking second the near line. Races off his last winning mark and he's a major player back up in trip. 3lb lower than when just beaten in this race last year and ran very well on reappearance. |
|||
3rd (3)  (6/1 +0%)Vaynor |
6/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Vaynor 6/1, Enjoyed a productive campaign in 2022, recording his fourth success of the year when scoring at Chelmsford (13.3f) in November. Well held after 6 months off at Newmarket last time, though possibly unsuited by soft conditions. No surprise to see him bounce back. Ran poorly on last month's return, but won four times last year; claims if bouncing back. |
|||
4th (5)  (8/1 -23%)Military Two Step |
8/1(-23%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Military Two Step 8/1, Won twice in 2022 and made the frame on the all-weather first 2 starts this year. However, hasn't quite been in the same form since, never really threatening when mid-field at Chester (18.6f) in May. Needs to get back on track in first-time blinkers. 2lb lower than for her last win but below form lately; blinkers on. |
|||
5th (9)  (14/1 +30%)Songo |
14/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Songo 14/1, Showed improved form on the level in 2022, making it 3 wins from his first 5 starts of the year when successful at Salisbury (14.2f) in July. Hasn't been in the same form since then, though, losing all chance at the start back at Salisbury on his return. 1lb above his last winning mark and respected with conditions likely to be in his favour. |
|||
6th (10)  (7.5/1 +6%)Wilderness |
7.5/1(+6%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Wilderness 7.5/1, After a spell over jumps, caused a surprise when making a winning return to the level at Salisbury (14.2f) last summer. Possibly needed the run when down the field at this C&D in May, and duly returned to form when runner-up back at Salisbury 20 days ago. Respected. Beaten a neck by a subsequent winner at Salisbury last time; each-way claims at least. |
|||
7th (7)  (10/1 -25%)Get Back Get Back |
10/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Get Back Get Back 10/1, Fairly useful on the Flat when trained by Clive Cox in 2018/2019. Has only had one start on the level for current yard (in June 2020), but won handicap hurdle at Kempton (2m) in November and he looks to be on a fair mark back in this sphere. Returns to the Flat for the first time since the summer of 2020; others look more solid. |
|||
8th (11)  (12/1 +40%)Buxted Reel |
12/1(+40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Buxted Reel 12/1, Gained reward for his consistency when getting off the mark at Wolverhampton (12.2f) last August. However, down the field both starts so far this season, possibly amiss at Hamilton last month. Hood back on but others more persuasive. 1-18, but back off winning mark and return to fast ground in his favour; watch market. |
|||
9th (4)  (18/1 -80%)State Of Bliss |
18/1(-80%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) State Of Bliss 18/1, Useful handicapper at best on the Flat for Charlie & Mark Johnston, winning at Ripon last April. Campaigned over hurdles this year for current yard, landing the odds in 4-runner maiden at Fakenham (2m, good to firm) 12 days ago. On a workable mark back on the level. Both Flat handicap wins off 4lb higher and won over hurdles last time; interesting. |
|||
10th (1)  (12/1 +0%)Juan Bermudez |
12/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Juan Bermudez 12/1, Raised his game when narrowly prevailing from the front upped to 2m at Kempton in November. Hasn't gone on from that effort in 3 starts since, though, running no sort of race in first-time cheekpieces at Chester on his latest outing. Back off last winning mark, but unraced on ground faster than good to soft. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Vaynor rounded off last season with back-to-back victories on the all-weather before finishing down the field at Newmarket on last month's reappearance. Though it would be no surprise were he to resume his progress down in class, preference is for CRESCENT LAKE. A winner over C&D before finishing a creditable fourth at Salisbury 20 days ago, Gary Moore's charge can put his track craft to good use. Others to note include Ravens Ark and State Of Bliss.
RAVENS ARK shaped encouragingly on his reappearance when runner-up at Ascot a month ago, keeping on well having been hampered under 2f out, so he can build on that effort to return to winning ways back up in trip. Wilderness bounced back to form last time and could be the main danger, ahead of Crescent Lake.
This can go to RAVENS ARK (nap) who went close off 3lb higher in this race last year and ran really well on last month's Ascot return.

1st (3)  (1.75/1 -40%)Miss Mai Tai |
1.75/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Miss Mai Tai 1.75/1, Firmly back on track returned to sprinting when winning 9-runner handicap at Leicester (6f, good) 17 days ago, showing a good attitude to hold on. A 2 lb rise may not prevent the follow up. Came good for current stable over 6f in May; ought to make her presence felt again here. |
|||
2nd (1)  (2.5/1 +50%)Nuthatch |
2.5/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Nuthatch 2.5/1, Dual winner on the all-weather who has been well held both starts on turf. This is at least a drop in grade, though. Dual AW winner this year but soundly beaten on both subsequent turf starts; back in trip. |
|||
3rd (2)  (3.33/1 +45%)Puffable |
3.33/1(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Puffable 3.33/1, Improved to make a winning nursery debut at Brighton in July. Ran poorly final 2 starts last year but should strip fitter for last month's comeback. Wears a first-time hood on first start for new yard. Sold out of Ralph Beckett's for 35,000gns one day after respectable stable debut in May. |
|||
4th (4)  (4/1 -78%)Flying Barty |
4/1(-78%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Flying Barty 4/1, Has a useful pedigree and ran creditably on first run since leaving Kevin Ryan when third in 10-runner handicap at Bath (5.7f, firm, 3/1) 3 weeks ago. May do better still. Placed over 5.7f on stable debut, despite racing freely, and can build on that performance. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
MISS MAI TAI bounced back to form with a determined success at Leicester last month and a mere 2lb rise for that win may not be enough to stop her going in again. She is narrowly preferred to Flying Barty, who was an eye-catcher when keeping on in third at Bath on her first start for new connections. Puffable is another to consider, having moved stables from Ralph Beckett and now tried in a hood.
MISS MAI TAI got firmly back on track returned to sprinting when scoring at Leicester 17 days ago and, although she was all out to hold on, a 2 lb rise doesn't look sufficient to prevent the follow up in a thin race. Flying Barty made a satisfactory start for her new yard at Bath 3 weeks ago and may come on for the run.

0.4/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Fairbanks 0.4/1, Much improved switched to handicaps and fitted with a visor, winning last 2 starts at Haydock at Leicester. Won by a wide margin at latter track 10 days ago so should prove hard to beat under a penalty. 2-2 in handicaps after comfortable win ten days ago; 5lb well in under penalty. |
|||
2nd (5)  (2.5/1 +38%)Bulldog Spirit |
2.5/1(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Bulldog Spirit 2.5/1, Got back on the up when second at Windsor and showed a good attitude when going one better at Doncaster. More needed here, though. Just did enough to prevail when upped to 1m4f this month; further progress possible. |
|||
3rd (1)  (10/1 +60%)Star Caliber |
10/1(+60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Star Caliber 10/1, On a losing run and well held all 3 starts for new yard this season. Badly out of form for new stable this year and is the one with by far the most to prove. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
FAIRBANKS arrives in search of a hat-trick of victories having improved since being switched into handicap company at Haydock last month. He backed that performance up at Leicester in impressive style recently and is 5lb well-in under a penalty. Golspie shaped as though he may benefit from an extra couple of furlongs when fourth at Salisbury on his second start, while Bulldog Spirit could have more to offer following his recent success at Doncaster.
FAIRBANKS has taken his form to another level since visored/sent handicapping and should prove hard to beat under a penalty given the ease of his Leicester success 10 days ago. Reina del Mar is possibly still building up her fitness after a long absence and can follow the selection home off a career-low mark.
It's hard to see beyond FAIRBANKS, who has displayed huge improvement since switched to handicaps and is 5lb well in.

1st (4)  (12/1 +45%)Island Bandit |
12/1(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Island Bandit 12/1, Showed improved form with blinkers applied last summer, racking up a hat-trick with wins at Newbury and Sandown (twice) over 1m. Also ran well when second at Kempton in October, but well held after 7 months off at York 20 days ago. Bounce back called for. Completed 1m hat-trick last summer but well beaten on recent seasonal debut. |
|||
2nd (8)  (4.5/1 +63%)Dream Of Mischief |
4.5/1(+63%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Dream Of Mischief 4.5/1, Made the most of a drop in class fitted with cheekpieces when making his second nursery start a winning one at Lingfield (7f) in September. Not in the same form at Newmarket next time, but left poorly placed when seventh at this C&D on his return. More needed. AW winner in September but unable to land a telling blow over C&D on recent seasonal debut. |
|||
3rd (7)  (4.5/1 +18%)Cancan In The Rain |
4.5/1(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Cancan In The Rain 4.5/1, Off the mark at Yarmouth on his third start before disappointing back there on nursery debut next time. After 9 months off (left Chris Dwyer), shaped as if he'll be suited by 1m when fourth at the same course (7f, good to firm) 15 days ago. Merits consideration. Shaped as though ready for 1m when fourth over 7f on seasonal/stable debut; shortlisted. |
|||
4th (5)  (1.75/1 +7%)Man Of Eden |
1.75/1(+7%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Man Of Eden 1.75/1, Irish import who landed the odds on debut for new yard in a 1m Newcastle maiden in January. Not discredited next time before shaping better than the result at this C&D on his subsequent 2 starts, caught further back than ideal on latest occasion. Leading contender. Met traffic before running on well for fourth over C&D in May; dangerous with better luck. |
|||
5th (1)  (6.5/1 -8%)Bling On The Music |
6.5/1(-8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Bling On The Music 6.5/1, Finished down the field on his reappearance but left that run well behind when fourth of 8 in handicap at Yarmouth (1m, good to firm) 15 days ago, seeing it out back up in trip despite racing freely. Needs to build on his latest effort. Back on track with fair fourth this month but tendency to race too freely remains a worry. |
|||
6th (6)  (7/1 -27%)Monty Bay |
7/1(-27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Monty Bay 7/1, Making his first start on turf, continued his progress when winning 10-runner minor event at Chepstow (7.1f, good to firm) a fortnight ago, having a bit in hand. Will go on improving so he's one to note as he makes his handicap debut. Won recent 7f maiden quite stylishly; should have more to offer in handicaps. |
|||
7th (3)  (14/1 -40%)Cliffs Of Capri |
14/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Cliffs Of Capri 14/1, Having his first start on turf since 2021 (headgear reapplied), took a step back in the right direction when fifth of 11 at Pontefract (1m, good) at the end of May. Ran to a similar level at Windsor 10 days later, but it's now 20 runs since his last success. No win since 2020 but has posted two good efforts since returned to turf last month. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Rawyaan sets the standard having hit the crossbar off this mark at Brighton late last month, but marginal preference is for the unexposed MONTY BAY. Clive Cox's gelding has progressed with each start and got off the mark over 7f at Chepstow two weeks ago. Off an opening mark of 81, the son of Night Of Thunder could be hard to beat on his handicap bow. Others who make the shortlist are Man Of Eden and Cliffs Of Capri.
MAN OF EDEN has shaped better than the result at this C&D on his last 2 starts, caught further back than ideal when finishing fourth on his latest outing, so he could be ready to gain a first handicap success this time around. Monty Bay is feared most as he makes his handicap debut, while Cancan In The Rain could have more to offer upped in trip.
After coming from the back of the field to win a Chepstow maiden cosily, MONTY BAY might follow up on today's handicap debut.
