1st (1) (1.62/1 -8%) Golden Arrow |
1.62/1(-8%) | (1) Golden Arrow 1.62/1, Foaled March 30. 21,000 gns foal, £27,000 yearling, £200,000 2-y-o, Havana Grey colt. Half-brother to several winners, including 5f-7f winner Born To Finish and 1m winner Mark of Respect. Yard going well with its 2-y-os and must enter the reckoning. Engaged 3.10 Ascot Saturday. £200,000 breeze-up 2yo; trainer does well with 2yos; non-runner at Ascot yesterday. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (1.25/1 +34%) Moonstone Boy |
1.25/1(+34%) | (4) Moonstone Boy 1.25/1, Calyx colt who took a big step forward from his debut when runner-up at Musselburgh (5f, soft) a fortnight ago, pulling well clear of the rest with a promising newcomer. Every chance of going one better. Takes on some interesting rivals but sets a strong standard for the rest to aim at. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (9/1 -80%) Golden Mind |
9/1(-80%) | (2) Golden Mind 9/1, Foaled January 29. 150,000 gns yearling, Galileo Gold colt. Half-brother to smart winner up to 7f Perfect Power. Dam 8.6f-1¼m winner who stayed 1½m. One to consider. Half-brother to connections' 3-time 6f Group 1 winner Perfect Power; considered on debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (14/1 +0%) Irish Nectar |
14/1(+0%) | (3) Irish Nectar 14/1, Foaled February 15. 50,000 gns yearling, Invincible Spirit colt. Dam, 2-y-o 5f/6f winner who stayed 1m, half-sister to useful 7f/1m winner Paperchain. Newcomer; second foal; dam Listed-placed 5f/6f 2yo winner (RPR 100) from useful family. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (10/1 -33%) Kandy House |
10/1(-33%) | (5) Kandy House 10/1, Invincible Spirit filly who showed both speed and promise when third of 6 in Ripon novice (5f, soft) on debut last month, not unduly punished. Should improve. Promising third on debut at Ripon and open to improvement; possible player. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Predictions are subjective and can vary based on factors like past performance, jockey, track conditions, etc. However, based on the given summary, the following horses are likely to perform well: 1st place: 1.88/1 (4) MOONSTONE BOY 2nd place: 1.5/1 (1) GOLDEN ARROW 3rd place: 5/1 (2) GOLDEN MIND
MOONSTONE BOY recently posted an improved effort when runner-up at Musselburgh and a reproduction of that performance now eased in class may suffice. Kandy House is the only other rival to have raced and is a potential improver, but newcomer Golden Mind, a half-brother to Group 1 winner Perfect Power, could prove the biggest threat. Richard Fahey's colt possesses plenty of speed in his pedigree and any support in the market would increase interest.
MOONSTONE BOY took a significant step forward from his debut when pulling well clear with a promising newcomer at Musselburgh a fortnight ago. With further improvement on the cards, Iain Jardine's charge can go a place better. Alice Haynes has made a good start to 2023 with her juveniles and Golden Arrow is put forward as the main danger ahead of fellow newcomer Golden Mind before market clues.
Having finished placed at Musselburgh on his first two starts, MOONSTONE BOY is taken to put his experience to good use.

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (4) (5/1 -25%) Quintus Arrius |
5/1(-25%) | (4) Quintus Arrius 5/1, Has improved for the addition of cheekpieces this year, winning 6f Newcastle novice in February and narrowly denied in a Pontefract handicap (6f, good to soft) 12 weeks later. 4 lb rise for that looks fair given he was well clear of the third. Should go well. Went very close on recent h'cap debut at Pontefract; in good hands to continue to progress. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (5.5/1 -57%) Mountain Warrior |
5.5/1(-57%) | (6) Mountain Warrior 5.5/1, Disappointed when sent off at 11/8 favourite for a Newcastle novice on his second start but showed why he was such a short price on that occasion when returning to win a 6f Southwell novice 8 months later. Can progress again now moving into handicap company. Won 6f AW novice last month; useful pedigree indicates he has potential off opening mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (14/1 -17%) Installation |
14/1(-17%) | (7) Installation 14/1, Opened account (dead heated) at third time of asking when taking 5f course novice last September. 25/1, didn't look at ease on the track when well held in Class 2 Newmarket handicap on reappearance so it might be worth forgiving him that. The visor he wore when winning here is back on. Well beaten on handicap/seasonal debut but the returning visor could be a plus. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (12) (9/1 -29%) Mereside Diva |
9/1(-29%) | (12) Mereside Diva 9/1, Not seen again at 2 after a 5f Musselburgh novice win in July but very nearly made light of a 9-month absence when neck second in 6f Doncaster handicap (soft) 15 days ago. Much respected nudged up 1 lb. Reappeared with a near-miss at Doncaster and there's every chance she has more to offer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (6.5/1 +35%) Hougoumont |
6.5/1(+35%) | (3) Hougoumont 6.5/1, Won a pair of 6f novices last autumn. Pulled too hard over 7f at York on final start but retains potential as a sprinter on this reappearance run. Won two of his four 2yo starts; gelded since; brings potential to this handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (10) (9/1 +25%) Honour Your Dreams |
9/1(+25%) | (10) Honour Your Dreams 9/1, Suited by a return to sprinting when second of 8 at Thirsk (6f, heavy) on Thursday. Cheekpieces added now turned out again quickly. Back to form when second at Thirsk on Thursday and could again be thereabouts. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (11) (10/1 -11%) Kelpie Grey |
10/1(-11%) | (11) Kelpie Grey 10/1, Much better effort in handicaps for new yard when second of 6 in 7f Ayr handicap on Monday. Unexposed sort who could build on that. Good claimer takes 3 lb off. Back to form when 2nd at Ayr on Monday; a strongly run race at this trip may prove ideal. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (4.5/1 +63%) Hour By Hour |
4.5/1(+63%) | (8) Hour By Hour 4.5/1, C&D winner at 2. Good close second of 7 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, heavy) on reappearance and did too much too soon when third over 7f at Leicester since. Return to 6f will suit. Went close over 6f on reappearance then didn't quite see out 7f a fortnight ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (5) (80/1 -60%) Hoof It Hoof It |
80/1(-60%) | (5) Hoof It Hoof It 80/1, Newbury novice win last August was easily his best effort in 6 outings for Richard Hannon at 2. Watching brief is advised on reappearance for new stable unless the betting strongly hints otherwise. Stable debut; won Newbury novice last August but others have more compelling credentials. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (2) (7/1 +36%) Braveheart Boy |
7/1(+36%) | (2) Braveheart Boy 7/1, Fairly useful and consistent sprint juvenile. Showed enough to suggest he retains his ability when fourth of 10 on Ripon reappearance (6f, heavy) 15 days ago, although he again didn't do himself any favour with a slowish start. Reappearance 4th at Ripon can be upgraded as he was slowly away; could have a part to play. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (13) (33/1 +50%) Cuban Rock |
33/1(+50%) | (13) Cuban Rock 33/1, Modest form and hard to derive much encouragement from his reappearance run at Musselburgh a fortnight ago. Hood on first time. Well beaten on recent comeback at Musselburgh; transformation needed in first-time hood. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (1) (40/1 -344%) Save The World |
40/1(-344%) | (1) Save The World 40/1, Progressive for Jane Chapple-Hyam at 2, winning heavy-ground 6f Nottingham novice in October. New yard acquired him for 30,000 gns later that month. Potential for better again but betting perhaps the best guide as to what's expected. Nottingham novice winner; makes handicap debut with new yard among the winners; a possible. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Based on the summary provided, it is difficult to accurately predict which horse will finish in 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. It is important to consider factors such as the distance of the race, the track conditions, the jockey and trainer, and the horse's recent form and performance. It is recommended to conduct further research and analysis before making any predictions.
QUINTUS ARRIUS was headed in the dying strides on his handicap debut at Pontefract earlier in the month and he looks capable of defying a 4lb rise in the ratings. Hour By Hour appeared too keen to see out the 7f trip at Leicester and this C&D winner isn't to be taken lightly, while Mereside Diva arrives in good heart and is another to consider stepping up in class.
The strength behind MOUNTAIN WARRIOR in the betting on his last 2 novice runs suggests he's well regarded by the Ed Bethell stable and he can make a successful switch to handicap company. Quintus Arrius and Mereside Diva are feared most after near misses on their recent handicap debuts.
Having won two of his four 2yo starts, HOUGOUMONT (nap) brings potential to this 3yo campaign and earns the vote.

1st (6) (3/1 +63%) My Little Queens |
3/1(+63%) | (6) My Little Queens 3/1, Returned with 1m2f success at Chelmsford City and backed it up with a good second of 9 at Doncaster (1m2f) 16 days ago. In the mix off an unchanged mark. Improved form on her two runs last month and this course winner could be in the mix. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (3.33/1 +5%) Nigwa |
3.33/1(+5%) | (3) Nigwa 3.33/1, Fair 1m2f Ripon winner at 3 who resumed with a promising fifth in 1m handicap at Newcastle in March, not enjoying the clearest of runs. Still lightly raced and weighted to go well here. Fair fifth in her two handicaps and there can be optimism she is capable of better. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (10) (18/1 -29%) Balalaika |
18/1(-29%) | (10) Balalaika 18/1, 7f Newcastle maiden winner in September who resumed with an excellent third of 6 in 1m handicap at Southwell 30 days ago. In the picture off the same mark. Close third on last month's handicap debut and this 3yo is open to further improvement. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (12) (12/1 +52%) Sophiesticate |
12/1(+52%) | (12) Sophiesticate 12/1, Dual winner last August who arrives in good nick, fourth of 9 in handicap at Ayr (10f) 6 days ago. Possibilities. The drop back in trip is worth exploring and she's an each-way possible. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (13) (10/1 -82%) Centre Court |
10/1(-82%) | (13) Centre Court 10/1, Took her form up a notch when making all in 1m handicap at Newcastle in April but she beat only one back on turf at Ripon (1m) 24 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Won on AW two starts ago and perhaps soft ground didn't suit at Ripon subsequently. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (20/1 -208%) Zarabanda |
20/1(-208%) | (4) Zarabanda 20/1, Lightly-raced Teofilo filly who landed 1m Redcar novice in October. Run best ignored (raced on unfavoured outside rail) in Doncaster listed event following month. Remains with a fair bit of potential on her handicap debut. Very lightly raced 4yo who has potential off opening mark in view of her novice win. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (8) (12/1 -9%) Crown Princess |
12/1(-9%) | (8) Crown Princess 12/1, Took this contest 12 months ago and she resumed after 7 months off/wind op with an encouraging seventh of 11 in handicap at Beverley (8.4f, good to soft) 17 days ago. Considered off an easing mark. Reasonable comeback run and now 2lb lower than when winning this last year; respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (5) (14/1 +13%) Celtic Empress |
14/1(+13%) | (5) Celtic Empress 14/1, Course winner who shaped as if in need of the run when sixth of 12 in 1m handicap at Musselburgh 14 days ago. Can build on it now. Won twice last season but was soundly beaten on reappearance run at Musselburgh. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (11) (50/1 -52%) A La Francaise |
50/1(-52%) | (11) A La Francaise 50/1, Course winner who wasn't at her best after 7 months off when eighth of 14 in handicap at Musselburgh (12.5f, soft) 14 days ago. Back down in trip and should strip fitter now. Hasn't shone the last twice and is probably best watched now back down in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (1) (33/1 -200%) Casilli |
33/1(-200%) | (1) Casilli 33/1, Bagged a fifth success at Beverley in 8.5f handicap last July. Effective over this longer trip and she has a good record when fresh so can't be discounted after her absence. Beverley brings out her best but she can run well elsewhere & has good reappearance record. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (14) (22/1 +12%) Graces Quest |
22/1(+12%) | (14) Graces Quest 22/1, Got back on track after 8 months off when fourth of 8 in handicap at Ayr (10f, good to firm) 10 days ago. A dual scorer in 2022 so can't be dismissed. Doubt regarding drop back in trip but not discounted after encouraging reappearance run. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (9) (12/1 -20%) Invisible Friend |
12/1(-20%) | (9) Invisible Friend 12/1, Sea The Stars filly who got off the mark in 1m1f Carlisle novice in August. Still looked green on her handicap bow when fading fourth of nine at Doncaster (1m2f) 16 days ago. Can take a step forward here. Soundly beaten last month when back from absence, but unexposed and has useful pedigree. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (7) (8/1 +43%) Vindobala |
8/1(+43%) | (7) Vindobala 8/1, Scored at Newcastle (7f) in February and not disgraced when fifth of 12 in 1m handicap at Musselburgh 14 days ago. Unreliable type overall, though. Creditable third in this last year but no impact at Musselburgh latest; now 1-16 on turf. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (2) (20/1 -43%) Scotch Mistress |
20/1(-43%) | (2) Scotch Mistress 20/1, Kickstarted 2022 with 7.5f Beverley success and kept her form well after. Yard among the winners so she's in the mix on her return. First run of 2023; won on last year's reappearance and pretty consistent subsequently. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
1st - 8/1 (6) MY LITTLE QUEENS 2nd - 3.5/1 (3) NIGWA 3rd - 11/1 (8) CROWN PRINCESS
MY LITTLE QUEENS' stamina appeared stretched by the 1m2f trip in underfoot conditions when runner-up at Doncaster last month and with conditions unlikely to be too dissimilar here, the drop to 1m1f could prove the tonic. Casilli recorded a career-best performance when successful at Beverley in July and the six-year-old mare could have a say in proceedings now only 4lb higher on her return. The lightly-raced Zarabanda makes most appeal of the remainder.
A highly competitive handicap with NIGWA fancied to take another step forward and come out on top. She made an encouraging comeback at Newcastle and likely has more to offer for a yard enjoying a good season. Zarabanda is a big player on her handicap debut, while My Little Queens and Crown Princess are a couple of the other more interesting ones.
This could go to last year's winner CROWN PRINCESS, who is now 2lb lower and can build on her fair reappearance run at Beverley.

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (6) (3/1 +25%) Pisanello |
3/1(+25%) | (6) Pisanello 3/1, Is highly consistent and shaped well when second at Thirsk on reappearance, never nearer. Type to be suited by a well-run race and could prevail. Reappeared with fine second in the Thirsk Hunt Cup and a win could be imminent. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (6/1 +40%) What's The Story |
6/1(+40%) | (5) What's The Story 6/1, Usually gives his running and was a bit better than the result at Wolverhampton a couple of months ago. Not discounted from a fair mark. 9yo who isn't the force of old but has dropped to a dangerous mark and isn't written off. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (11) (9/1 +36%) Mostawaa |
9/1(+36%) | (11) Mostawaa 9/1, Down to a handy mark and shaped as if better for the run when sixth at Kempton on return. Blinkers refitted and no surprise to see him go well. Return to form needed but can't be ruled out now 6lb lower than when 2nd in this last year. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (6.5/1 +7%) Dutch Decoy |
6.5/1(+7%) | (2) Dutch Decoy 6.5/1, Five-time 7f/1m winner in 2022 and has run with credit on both outings this term, fifth of 17 at Newmarket 8 days ago. Should give another good account. Back down to last winning mark and the fact he's 2-2 here very much heightens interest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (6.5/1 -18%) Shaladar |
6.5/1(-18%) | (7) Shaladar 6.5/1, C&D winner who travelled well when second at Redcar on return. Needs more to defy this mark but may well make a better 4yo, so he's worth considering. Three wins last year and returned with solid second; looks set for another good campaign. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (7/1 +0%) On A Session |
7/1(+0%) | (1) On A Session 7/1, Useful sort who capitalised on a drop in grade in cosy fashion at Musselburgh a fortnight ago. Remains well treated on old form and should be thereabouts. Capitalised on a reduced mark at Musselburgh and remains well treated back up 6lb. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (10) (12/1 +14%) Perseverants |
12/1(+14%) | (10) Perseverants 12/1, Winner at Wolverhampton in February and back to form when second at Ripon last time. Likely to be on the premises. Soft-ground runner-up on two of his last three starts and could be thereabouts. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (28/1 +30%) Tilsitt |
28/1(+30%) | (8) Tilsitt 28/1, 23¼ lengths tenth of 12 to On A Session in handicap at Musselburgh (7.2f, soft, 33/1) 14 days ago. On a reasonable mark and should be closer to form now back up to a more suitable distance. Well beaten on reappearance but over inadequate 7f; no forlorn hope off last winning mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (12) (33/1 -50%) Yaaser |
33/1(-50%) | (12) Yaaser 33/1, Four wins from 15 runs in a very productive 2022. Poor start for the new campaign but might be more up to speed after a couple of runs. Needs to get back on track but may stage a revival when returned to better ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (14) (10/1 +17%) Ravenglass |
10/1(+17%) | (14) Ravenglass 10/1, Consistent sort who arrives on the back of a creditable run when third at Pontefract last time. Wide draw not ideal, but could get involved if things drop right. Good third on both runs this year and every chance he'll be bang there. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (9) (40/1 -100%) Cisco Disco |
40/1(-100%) | (9) Cisco Disco 40/1, Ended last season with a poor run and didn't fire on Ripon reappearance. Could strip fitter for that, however. In fine form on turf last autumn in the visor; not so good last month in these cheekpieces. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (3) (20/1 -67%) Young Fire |
20/1(-67%) | (3) Young Fire 20/1, Useful handicapper on turf and did well to overcome a poor position to defy his lower AW mark at Newcastle 5 days ago. Penalty makes life tougher, though. Exploited lower AW mark at Newcastle on Tuesday; this is tougher but he's not ruled out. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (13) (80/1 -142%) Poet's Dawn |
80/1(-142%) | (13) Poet's Dawn 80/1, Likeable type who made a solid return and can have his latest effort at Ripon excused. Others look better treated but he's likely to be back on his game. Down the field last time but promising reappearance previously; shouldn't be dismissed. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
1st - 4/1 (6) PISANELLO, 2nd - 6.5/1 (2) DUTCH DECOY, 3rd - 14/1 (11) MOSTAWAA
Ravenglass could surprise a few from the bottom of the weights, but he may still struggle to cope with PISANELLO, who was beaten less than a length when second on his return in the Thirsk Hunt Cup, despite making a slow start. Only put up 1lb for that effort, he may prove too good for these, while Dutch Decoy is yet to taste defeat at the track after two starts and is another for the shortlist following a solid effort at Newmarket last Saturday.
A very tricky event in which the tentative choice goes to PISANELLO who usually runs his race and should have the circumstances to suit his patient style. On A Session and Shaladar are two of several others with feasible claims.
Preference is for DUTCH DECOY, who is 2-2 at Hamilton and runs off his last winning mark. Pisanello is next best.

1st (10) (10/1 -54%) Jordan Electrics |
10/1(-54%) | (10) Jordan Electrics 10/1, With headgear left off, confirmed the promise of his stable debut when justifying strong support (11/10) in handicap at Ayr 10 days ago, notching up his first success at 5f since he was a 2-y-o in the process. Can follow up in his current mood. Three 6f wins here; cosy 5f win for new yard; well treated; best form on good or quicker. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (7/1 -27%) The Thin Blue Line |
7/1(-27%) | (4) The Thin Blue Line 7/1, Having finished down the field on his first 2 starts this year, bounced back with a career best when winning handicap at Musselburgh (5f) a fortnight ago, helped by being held up in strongly-run race. Third in this race last year and can give another good account. Has course form; came on a ton when Musselburgh winner latest; up 3lb. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (7/1 +56%) Edward Cornelius |
7/1(+56%) | (2) Edward Cornelius 7/1, Won on his first start last season at Thirsk but, after a pair of good runner-up efforts at this C&D, was below form at the end of the campaign. Probably needed the run after 7 months off when down the field at Musselburgh 14 days ago, so this run should reveal more. Soft-ground winner; has course form; well back on reappearance but hood refitted. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (6/1 -20%) Monsieur Kodi |
6/1(-20%) | (5) Monsieur Kodi 6/1, Returned to form after 6 months off when landing 5f handicap at Musselburgh in April. Backed up that effort when fourth of 15 to The Thin Blue Line at the same C&D next time and he can give his running again. In good form over 5f, luckless last time; has better to come; this stiff finish can suit. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (9) (4/1 +33%) Huddle Up |
4/1(+33%) | (9) Huddle Up 4/1, Didn't really get going for this yard in 2022 but, after 10 months off, much more like it when second of 11 on 6f Thirsk reappearance in April. Capable of getting involved again as he drops back down in trip. Twice withdrawn in last 6 appearances after upset in stalls; good chance on Thirsk second. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (12/1 +14%) Rock Melody |
12/1(+14%) | (8) Rock Melody 12/1, Made a solid start for this yard when reaching the frame in big-field 5f handicaps at Musselburgh last month, nearest at the finish both times. However, unsuited by emphasis on speed when disappointing at Ayr (6f) 6 days ago. Could be worth another chance. Wins have come at 6f/7f; effective at 5f; not ruled out on form at this trip in 2023. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (22/1 -10%) Laheg |
22/1(-10%) | (3) Laheg 22/1, Won on the all-weather on 2 of his last 3 starts in 2022 and continued his progress when third at Lingfield (6f) in March. Not seen to best effect when well held at the same C&D last time, racing wide, but he now needs to get back on track returned to turf. Won 6f turf novice as 2yo; AW improver since; below best latest; first run at 5f on turf. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (12) (40/1 -60%) Wrecked It Ralph |
40/1(-60%) | (12) Wrecked It Ralph 40/1, Dropped to 5f for the first time, showed improved form when off mark in 12-runner handicap at Ayr in July last year. Ran at least as well when runner-up at the same C&D 12 days later, but needs to pick up where he left off after a 9-month absence. Off since August and up against it from out of the weights.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (6) (14/1 -17%) Object |
14/1(-17%) | (6) Object 14/1, After finishing well-beaten on debut for this yard on his return, proved that he retains his ability when third in handicap at Thirsk (5f) 8 days ago. Task is now to build on his latest effort. Useful 2yo; struggled in 2022 but ran well last week on second run back for new yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (1) (3.33/1 +5%) Spoof |
3.33/1(+5%) | (1) Spoof 3.33/1, Has returned in top form this year, getting back to winning ways at Windsor last month before belying market weakness when following up under a penalty at Ascot 9 days later. Remains on a workable mark, so he's not taken lightly with good-value claimer on board. In peak form at 5f for new yard; up 5lb for Ascot win but Billy Loughnane takes off 3lb. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (11) (14/1 -17%) Ramon Di Loria |
14/1(-17%) | (11) Ramon Di Loria 14/1, Dual winner in 2022 and placed on his final 2 outings of the year, third of 11 in handicap at Southwell (5f) in December. After 4 months off, shaped better than the result when mid-field at Musselburgh 2 weeks ago, and could do better with that run behind him. Has course form at 6f; had a few chances off similar marks since latest turf win last July. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
My prediction would be that 3.5/1 (1) SPOOF will do well based on the fact that he is in peak form and has recently won at Ascot. 1st place: 3.5/1 (1) SPOOF 2nd place: 6.5/1 (10) JORDAN ELECTRICS 3rd place: 5.5/1 (4) THE THIN BLUE LINE
Jordan Electrics has won here three times and arrives in good form after a win at Ayr earlier in the month, but he does need a career best off this mark and preference is for the hat-trick seeking SPOOF. A winner at Windsor and Ascot, he does have an extra 5lb from the handicapper now, but Billy Loughnane claims 3lb back, and a good draw in stall one may negate the rest. Huddle Up and Object could fight it out for the minor honours.
With headgear left off, JORDAN ELECTRICS gained a first success at 5f since he was a 2-y-o when justifying strong support at Ayr 10 days ago and he can follow up on only his third start for his current yard. Heading the list of dangers is Spoof who arrives bidding for a hat-trick, while Huddle Up and The Thin Blue Line also merit consideration.

1st (3) (4.5/1 +25%) Geremia |
4.5/1(+25%) | (3) Geremia 4.5/1, Habitual slow starter who has gone sixteen runs since last win in 2021. Nevertheless, he shaped well from an unpromising position when fourth of 16 in handicap at Newmarket (14f, soft) last week and would be in the mix if replicating that effort. Close fourth of 16 in valuable race at Newmarket (1m6f, soft) last Sunday; player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (18/1 -50%) Dundory |
18/1(-50%) | (7) Dundory 18/1, Aided by this good-value claimer when winning 14-runner handicap at Doncaster (11.9f, soft, 7/1) 15 days ago. That effort represented a career best and he's another who could prove competitive. Has gone back up 4lb since Doncaster win two weeks ago but can still go well. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (11/1 +8%) Haizoom |
11/1(+8%) | (5) Haizoom 11/1, Won this race last season and generally held her form well later in the season. Little bit below her best when sixth of 10 in handicap (7/1) at this C&D (good) last week but wouldn't be one to dismiss fully despite high draw. This race was her only win last year and she has just a 1lb higher mark today. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (5/1 +23%) Ravenscraig Castle |
5/1(+23%) | (2) Ravenscraig Castle 5/1, Useful sort at his best and ran creditably when 2½ lengths second of 14 to Fairmac in handicap at Musselburgh (12.5f, soft, 11/1) 14 days ago. Remains potentially well-treated from same mark. 2nd to Fairmac at Musselburgh on reappearance and this step back up in trip can help. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (12) (80/1 -100%) Two Auld Pals |
80/1(-100%) | (12) Two Auld Pals 80/1, Third behind Clansman at Ayr on his final outing in 2022 but shaped as if amiss on return here last week. Stiff task if he's to get off the mark in this company. A maiden after 11 runs; tailed off on reappearance here last Sunday. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (7.5/1 -7%) Fairmac |
7.5/1(-7%) | (1) Fairmac 7.5/1, Capitalised on falling mark to land 14-runner handicap at Musselburgh (12.5f, soft, 11/1) 14 days ago by 2½ lengths from Ravenscraig Castle, pushed out. Merits consideration from 4 lb higher mark. Fell in the weights prior to his Musselburgh win two weeks ago; did it in clearcut fashion. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (6.5/1 -18%) Mister Camacho |
6.5/1(-18%) | (6) Mister Camacho 6.5/1, Belatedly got off the mark in impressive fashion when scoring by 7½ lengths in 6-runner event (6/4) at Catterick (13.9f, heavy) 32 days ago. Versatile ground-wise and shouldn't be discounted from following up here despite wide draw and 7 lb rise. Plentiful minor honours before easily off the mark at Catterick (1m6f, soft; six ran). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (16/1 -33%) Heights Of Abraham |
16/1(-33%) | (4) Heights Of Abraham 16/1, Close second in 15-runner handicap at Ayr Western meeting on final start in 2022 and shaped as if needing the run when well held at Musselburgh (12.5f, soft) 14 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Not discounted. Beaten 23l on reappearance two weeks ago but similar in 2022 before back to form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (8) (25/1 -56%) World Without Love |
25/1(-56%) | (8) World Without Love 25/1, Won at Wolverhampton in November but looked a tricky ride when third of 8 in handicap (10/3) at Chelmsford City (14f) 17 days ago. Bit more needed from this mark. 1-16; has more to prove on turf form, despite her mostly minor honours in this sphere. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (9) (3.5/1 +13%) Captain Haddock |
3.5/1(+13%) | (9) Captain Haddock 3.5/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2021 but he ran well to finish ½-length second of 12 to Clansman at Doncaster (11.9f, heavy) 42 days ago. 9 lb lower than when close second in this race last year and has leading apprentice booked. 2nd twice last year, including in this, and same again at Doncaster (soft) six weeks ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (10) (33/1 -50%) Buxted Reel |
33/1(-50%) | (10) Buxted Reel 33/1, Possibly needed the run when last of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 14/1) 34 days ago on return but this is better company than he usually keeps and he must improve. 1-17; needs to be in peak form; unraced on softer than good when on turf. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (11) (9/1 +0%) Clansman |
9/1(+0%) | (11) Clansman 9/1, Found improvement when winning 12-runner handicap at Doncaster (11.9f, heavy) on return and acquitted himself well on quicker ground than ideal when third here last week. Solid place claims. Has proved himself here, albeit no win; in good form and must be in each-way calculations. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
1st: 5.5/1 (6) MISTER CAMACHO 2nd: 12/1 (7) DUNDORY 3rd: 6.5/1 (2) RAVENSCRAIG CASTLE
World Without Love may be running on through beaten horses over this reduced trip and she could yet pick them off for a place, but first prize may go to one of Musselburgh winner Fairmac, or the rapidly improving MISTER CAMACHO, who hacked up at Catterick last month. The four-year-old gets 5lb from his rival here and that may just about be enough to see him come out on top.
A highly-competitive staying handicap, in which last year's runner-up CAPTAIN HADDOCK can go one better after an encouraging return at Doncaster. He has a previous C&D win to his name and still remains well treated on last season's best form, so gets the nod ahead of recent Musselburgh 1-2 Fairmac and Ravenscraig Castle in a race where cases can be made for most.
This field contains any number of viable options. HEIGHTS OF ABRAHAM may be the one to emerge on top.

1st (8) (7/1 -27%) Derry Lad |
7/1(-27%) | (8) Derry Lad 7/1, Won over this sort of trip at Sligo last term before several creditable efforts in defeat. Fit from a hurdling campaign when a good second at Navan in March and this Irish raider merits respect. Second of 18 at Navan (1m2f, heavy) on latest start; could have a big shout. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (40/1 -233%) Beraz |
40/1(-233%) | (5) Beraz 40/1, Winner in France but has never stood much racing and limited impact both hurdles starts for Dan Skelton a year ago. Had had another wind op ahead of handicap debut for new yard returned to the level and he's not easy to assess. Ex-French; wind problems for Skelton; back to Flat but perhaps a watching brief is best. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (2/1 +33%) Faylaq |
2/1(+33%) | (1) Faylaq 2/1, Losing run stretches back to 2019 but he's down in the weights and made a very promising start for Jim Goldie when second over 13f here a week ago, faring best of those held up. Clearly needs everything to drop right but he's of interest. All three wins in 2019 but competitive on plenty of occasions; second here last Sunday. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (3.5/1 +42%) Aqwaam |
3.5/1(+42%) | (7) Aqwaam 3.5/1, Much improved when opening his account in heavy ground at Galway (11.8f) last summer. Mixed bag thereafter but he's returned in good heart, runner-up at Doncaster (11.9f, heavy) 8 days ago. Cheekpieces go on now and bold bid expected. More consistent this season; each-way claims if first-time headgear has no adverse effect. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (22/1 -38%) Dubai Leader |
22/1(-38%) | (3) Dubai Leader 22/1, Last tasted success at Kempton in November. Too free to last out both starts this year and on that evidence, this slight drop back in trip will help. Disappointing on final 3yo start; gelded before backward steps on both outings this season. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (6.5/1 +35%) Knight Of Honour |
6.5/1(+35%) | (2) Knight Of Honour 6.5/1, Winner of minor event at Sakhir (9.9f) in January and back on top form returned to Britain when third of 11 at Thirsk 3 weeks ago. Cheekpieces back on and he's been eased 1 lb. Respectable third at Thirsk three weeks ago should tee him up nicely for a good run. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (6.5/1 +7%) Don't Look Back |
6.5/1(+7%) | (9) Don't Look Back 6.5/1, Fit from hurdling and produced a career best when winning 12-runner handicap at Doncaster (10.2f, heavy, 28/1) last month. Matched that form when second over C&D a week ago and not fully exposed over middle distances. Beaten a head over C&D (good to soft) off this mark last Sunday. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (6) (16/1 -129%) Thunder Roar |
16/1(-129%) | (6) Thunder Roar 16/1, Clearly hard to train given his fleeting appearances but last month's AW run will have blown away the cobwebs and a case from a handicapping perspective can be made. Up markedly in trip and one to watch in the market. Upped markedly in trip and this may be more like his ground; makes his handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (4) (10/1 +9%) Croeso Cymraeg |
10/1(+9%) | (4) Croeso Cymraeg 10/1, Off 7 months and shaped well when second of 7 in handicap at Leicester (11.8f, heavy) in April, collared late having typically gone freely. Occupied same spot at Windsor and always dangerous if getting a good pace to aim at. Runner-up in his two starts this season; should be bang there once again. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Prediction: 5/1 (7) AQWAAM will finish in 1st place, 11/1 (4) CROESO CYMRAEG will finish in 2nd place, and 3.33/1 (1) FAYLAQ will finish in 3rd place.
FAYLAQ caught the eye when finishing a good second over 1m5f here a week ago. The drop in trip unlikely to pose an issue and he could make amends down in class. Don't Look Back remains relatively unexposed in this sphere and is one to keep onside, having been narrowly denied over C&D on his latest outing. Croeso Cymraeg is entitled to be thereabouts, while Irish-raider Derry Lad should not be underestimated either.
A tightly-knit handicap with CROESO CYMRAEG just about the most persuasive option with this track fancied to suit the James-Evans trained veteran. Aqwaam and Faylaq arrive on the back of excellent runner-up efforts and are just a couple of potential threats.
This promises to be highly competitive but 1m3f here could prove a good fit for the Irish challenger DERRY LAD.

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.
