6/5(+52%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Catalyse 6/5, Foaled April 18. €60,000 yearling, £300,000 2-y-o, Starspangledbanner colt. Dam, third at 6f at 2 yrs, closely related to useful winner around 11f Kilimanjaro out of winning half-sister to very smart 7f winner Gustav Klimt. Proved popular at the sales and yard can ready one. 60,000euros yearling, £300,000 2yo; by Starspangledbanner; interesting newcomer. |

2nd (4)  (8/1 -140%)Motawahij |
8/1(-140%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Motawahij 8/1, Foaled February 17. $250,000 foal, $225,000 yearling, 285,000 gns 2-y-o, American Pharoah colt. Dam US 4.5f-5.5f (including at 2 yrs) winner. Stable has very good record with 2-y-os so worth a look. $250,000 foal, $225,000 yearling, 285,000gns 2yo; by American Pharoah; respected. |
|||
3rd (5)  (11/1 -83%)Proud To Be Fox |
11/1(-83%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Proud To Be Fox 11/1, 135,000 gns yearling, Mohaather colt. Closely related to 6f winner Snuggle and 2-y-o 5f winner Cover Point. Dam 5f/6f winner. Green and not given a hard time when fifth of 11 in novice at York (6f, good, 25/1) on debut 17 days ago, nearest finish. Sure to be much sharper for that. Showed promise at York but yard is still seeking first 2yo winner of the season. |
|||
4th (3)  (8/1 +11%)Hot Property |
8/1(+11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Hot Property 8/1, Foaled April 15. 70,000 gns yearling, Too Darn Hot colt. Brother to 7f winner Sunblock and half-brother to several winners, including winner up to 7f Betty F and winner up to 1m Sound Angela, both useful. Dam winner up to 7f (2-y-o 6f winner). Yard has won this twice in the last 3 years. 70,000gns yearling; by Too Darn Hot out of a 6f/7f winner; check the betting. |
|||
5th (6)  (5/2 -25%)Dolce Vitta |
5/2(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Dolce Vitta 5/2, Cotai Glory filly. Half-sister to 2-y-o 6f winner Glamorously. Dam 2-y-o 6f/7f winner. Much improved from debut when comfortably winning 10-runner maiden at Redcar (6f, good) 13 days ago. Open to further improvement and can defy a penalty. Made all for 5l win at Redcar last time; has Albany aspirations; sets the standard. |
|||
6th (1)  (18/1 -50%)Blue Lakota |
18/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Blue Lakota 18/1, Foaled March 28. €37,000 foal, £48,000 yearling, Sioux Nation colt. Half-brother to several winners, including useful 6f/7f winner Dominus and 1¾m-2m winner Byron Hill. Dam 2-y-o 5f winner. Market often a good guide to yard's newcomers. £48,000 yearling; Sioux Nation half-brother to four winners; market instructive. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
DOLCE VITTA made no mistake on her second career start when running out a comfortable winner over 6f at Redcar last month. She gets the vote to bring up the double for a trainer and jockey combination who are operating at a 21% strike rate when teaming up on turf this year. Proud To Be Fox made a promising debut when finishing fifth in a deeper race at York last month and a bold showing from him would be no surprise. Well-bred newcomers Catalyse and Motawahij also enter calculations.
DOLCE VITTA left her debut well behind when a wide-margin winner at Redcar 2 weeks ago and looks the one to beat under a penalty. Proud To Be Fox is the only other runner with experience having caught the eye at York last month. Motawahij and Catalyse were both big money buys at the Breeze Ups so this could turn out to be a decent novice.
In terms of form, DOLCE VITTA sets the standard. Catalyse (second choice) and Motawahij are interesting newcomers.

1st (3)  (7/2 +30%)Whathappensinvegas |
7/2(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Whathappensinvegas 7/2, Career best when off the mark 12-runner handicap at Newmarket (1¼m, good, 25/1) 15 days ago, a prominent ride up in trip appearing to suit very well. Should remain competitive up 3 lb. Engaged 4.00 Musselburgh Saturday. Surprise winner at Newmarket (1m2f) last month; creditable 2nd at Musselburgh yesterday. |
|||
2nd (2)  (9/4 +50%)Victory Shout |
9/4(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Victory Shout 9/4, Won a novice at Carlisle (1m, good to firm) in September and all the better for return when just edged out by the odds-on favourite here (12.1f) on Wednesday. Player off the same mark. Clear of third when close second of four here on Wednesday; competes off same mark again. |
|||
3rd (1)  (11/8 +0%)Align The Stars |
11/8(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Align The Stars 11/8, Sea The Stars colt who has finished runner-up on 4 of his 5 starts, improving for the longer trip when second of 8 in handicap at York (11.8f, good) 17 days ago, giving best only late on to a smart prospect. Can do better again. 0-5 now but ran big race in defeat at York last month and commands respect here. |
|||
4th (4)  (7/1 -100%)Alacrity |
7/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Alacrity 7/1, Improved again when winning 12-runner maiden at Lingfield (10f, AW, 11/1) final 2-y-o start. Well backed ahead of handicap debut/comeback but could manage only fourth of 7 at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) 13 days ago, one paced. AW maiden winner; only fourth of seven on seasonal/handicap debut but still has potential. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
It is hard to look past ALIGN THE STARS, who was last seen finishing an excellent second in a warm contest at York last month and a repeat of that display would be more than enough for him to shed the maiden tag. Alacrity was the subject of significant market support when she could only manage fourth on her handicap debut at Windsor recently, but she can serve it up to the selection and prove the money wasn't totally misplaced. Victory Shout is also noteworthy for the in-form Karl Burke team.
ALIGN THE STARS was an excellent second behind a smart prospect in what is traditionally a strong 3-y-o handicap at York last month so is fancied to open his account in this lesser affair. Victory Shout was only just edged out off this mark here on Wednesday so is next best.
Topweight ALIGN THE STARS almost certainly bumped into a smart rival when a clear second in a competitive race at York last month.

(3)  (25/1 -79%)Flash Bardot |
25/1(-79%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Flash Bardot 25/1, Won 5 times in 2023, latterly at Catterick (12f, heavy) in October and she again handled conditions best when seeing off a host of similarly useful fillies on return at Doncaster (11.9f, soft) in April. Not so good at York subsequently. Engaged 5.15 Epsom Saturday. Strongly considered if the ground is soft; well held at Epsom yesterday. |
|||
1st (11)  (28/1 +15%)Dark Moon Rising |
28/1(+15%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Dark Moon Rising 28/1, Got his head back in front when accounting for 8 rivals from 2 lb higher mark at York (11.8f) last summer. Well held on return at Thirsk but he did shape better than distance beaten suggests in big field York handicap 18 days ago. Blinkers replace cheekpieces. Won at York (1m4f, good) last July; 2lb lower today, having failed to figure this season. |
|||
2nd (2)  (15/8 +44%)Fairbanks |
15/8(+44%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Fairbanks 15/8, Most progressive equipped with a visor, winning 3 times and showed benefit of his reappearance run when running out a comfortable winner at Newcastle (12.5f) 3 weeks ago. Full effective on turf and likely he has more to offer. Leading claims. Won four of last five, all at about 1m4f but 1m5f should not be a problem; up another 7lb. |
|||
3rd (10)  (11/1 +45%)Faylaq |
11/1(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Faylaq 11/1, Unreliable sort. Thirty one runs since last win in 2019. 4/1, 3½ lengths fifth of 6 to Geremia in handicap at this course (12.1f, good) 16 days ago, finding less than looked likely. Vulnerable again for win purposes. Well capable of being seriously involved but he's failed to score since 2019. |
|||
4th (4)  (9/2 +36%)Too Friendly |
9/2(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Too Friendly 9/2, Won 3 times over hurdles for current yard last summer and added to his tally back on the level in 2m Kempton handicap in March. Well supported both starts upon returning to the Flat, not well served by steady pace when runner-up to Hope You Can Run at Newmarket (14f) 14 days ago. Respected. Close 2nd of 6 to Hope You Can Run at Newmarket (1m6f) two weeks ago; headgear is removed. |
|||
5th (12)  (16/1 -14%)Dark Jedi |
16/1(-14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Dark Jedi 16/1, Course winner who capitalised on further reduced mark when winning 8-runner handicap at Thirsk (14f, soft, 4/1) 29 days ago, in command entering final 1f. 4 lb rise shouldn't prevent him going well at this shorter trip. Ended a long losing sequence in good style at Thirsk (1m6f, good to soft) four weeks ago. |
|||
6th (8)  (7/1 +30%)Geremia |
7/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Geremia 7/1, Unreliable sort who stepped up on his yard debut effort when winning 6-runner handicap at this course (12.1f, good) 16 days ago by 1¾ lengths from Capital Theory, staying on well. Did well to win given how the race developed but not sure to be in same form here. Mowed down Capital Theory from the back in six-runner race (1m4f) 16 days ago; considered. |
|||
7th (7)  (22/1 +12%)Maasai Mara |
22/1(+12%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Maasai Mara 22/1, Fairly useful on Flat for John & Thady Gosden and bright start over hurdles for present yard earlier this year, winning at Catterick (15.7f) in February. Respectable return to the Flat when 2¼ lengths fourth of 6 to Geremia in handicap at this course (12.1f, good) 16 days ago. Fourth of six to Geremia here 16 days ago suggests he's not on a great mark. |
|||
8th (6)  (12/1 -33%)Hope You Can Run |
12/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Hope You Can Run 12/1, 1 win from 3 runs this year. Career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Newmarket (14f, good to firm, 4/1) 14 days ago by ½ length from Too Friendly, holding on gamely. Little bit more on his plate here upped 3 lb. Back to form at Newmarket (1m6f) latest start, going on 3f out and seeing off Too Friendly. |
|||
9th (1)  (28/1 -75%)Wickywickywheels |
28/1(-75%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Wickywickywheels 28/1, Won 5 handicaps here and a listed race at Abu Dhabi in 2022 but found things tougher in various company last season, well-beaten in the Ebor at York on final outing. Mark has returned ahead of return/yard debut at least. Rather went off the boil (absent since August) for Jim Goldie but handicapper relenting. |
|||
10th (9)  (12/1 +14%)Toshizou |
12/1(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Toshizou 12/1, One win from 23 Flat runs. 11/2, creditable third of 20 in handicap at York (11.8f, good) 18 days ago, headed 1f out. Each-way claims from his reduced mark now upped further in trip. 3rd of 20 at York (1m4f) on latest but he's unraced beyond that; no win since 2020. |
|||
11th (13)  (28/1 -100%)Simple Star |
28/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Simple Star 28/1, Course winner who resumed from 8 months off with an excellent second of 13 in handicap at Musselburgh (12.5f, good to soft) in April. Well below that level when fifth of 6 to Capital Theory in handicap at this C&D 28 days ago. Bounce back called for. Close second at Musselburgh this April, two weeks before a disappointing show over C&D. |
|||
12th (5)  (15/2 +6%)Capital Theory |
15/2(+6%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Capital Theory 15/2, With his reappearance run behind him, posted a career best when bagging 6-runner C&D handicap and ran well from 5 lb higher mark when second behind Geremia back here (12f) 16 days ago. Should give another good account. Ready C&D winner early last month and creditable second to Geremia here 12 days later. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Fairbanks blotted his copybook on his seasonal reappearance when finishing sixth in a Thirsk handicap over 1m4f in April, but he bounced straight back to form with a comfortable victory over the same trip at Newcastle the following month. Preference, though, is for GEREMIA. Iain Jardine's gelding came from last to first to win going away over 1m4f here last month and, with the potential of more to come upped further in trip, he can defy a 4lb rise. Hope You Can Run and Too Friendly are closely matched on recent form and cannot be overlooked lightly.
FAIRBANKS showed the benefit of his reappearance run when resuming winning ways in good style at Newcastle 3 weeks ago and, with the distinct possibility of more to come from Andrew Balding's 4-y-o, he earns the vote to defy a further rise in the weights back on turf. Too Friendly likely has more to offer on the level and having not been seen to best effect last time is feared most. Charlie Johnston's pair Hope You Can Run and Capital Theory can also get involved.
Lots of these could have a say but preference is for FAIRBANKS ahead of Geremia.

1st (6)  (9/1 +10%)Desperate Hero |
9/1(+10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Desperate Hero 9/1, Five wins from 19 Flat runs. 6/1, career best when winning 5-runner handicap at Goodwood (5f, heavy) 30 days ago by neck from King's Lynn. That form is decent and he can go well again. Gamely beat King's Lynn by a neck at Goodwood last time; should remain competitive. |
|||
2nd (11)  (10/3 +26%)American Affair |
10/3(+26%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) American Affair 10/3, 4/1, career best when winning 12-runner handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good to soft) on return 42 days ago with plenty in hand. Looks a sprinter going places and big shout up in class. Won well at Musselburgh on seasonal debut; looks the type to improve further; respected. |
|||
3rd (5)  (22/1 -38%)Marine Wave |
22/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Marine Wave 22/1, Low-mileage 4-y-o who failed to win in 2023 having kept pretty good company. Not ideally placed on reappearance at Musselburgh but well held in handicap at York (5f, good, 7/1) 17 days ago. Hood on 1st time. Hard to fancy on 2024 efforts; chance depends on how well she responds to hood. |
|||
4th (2)  (6/1 +33%)King's Lynn |
6/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) King's Lynn 6/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. Respectable third of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (6f, 4/1) 21 days ago. Isn't quite the force of old but has been given a chance by the handicapper. Placed twice last month; won the Temple Stakes two years ago; remains attractively treated. |
|||
5th (10)  (33/1 -65%)Moon Flight |
33/1(-65%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Moon Flight 33/1, Continues in fine form in 5f AW handicaps, second of 10 at Newcastle 71 days ago. Makes turf debut back from a break. Consistent on AW; has a question to answer on turf. |
|||
6th (15)  (20/1 -67%)Reigning Profit |
20/1(-67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (15) Reigning Profit 20/1, 13/2, creditable 1¾ lengths third of 9 to Jordan Electrics in handicap at Carlisle (5f, good to firm) 13 days ago. In a consistent vein of form; ties in with Jordan Electrics on latest effort. |
|||
7th (1)  (9/2 +63%)Aberama Gold |
9/2(+63%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Aberama Gold 9/2, Smart sprinter who tasted success 5 times last season, notably in the Sky Bet Dash at York and Stewards' Cup. Well-backed 13/2, below form ninth of 21 in handicap at York (6f, good) 18 days ago. Good claims on previous Newmarket efforts now back over 5f. On a handy mark but ideally needs a testing surface back at 5f. |
|||
7th (8)  (22/1 -57%)Zarzyni |
22/1(-57%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Zarzyni 22/1, Twenty one runs since last win in 2022. 5/1, good second of 6 in handicap at Pontefract (5f, good to soft) 9 days ago, a tardy start probably the difference between victory and defeat. This is tougher. On a long losing sequence but went close at Pontefract most recently. |
|||
9th (7)  (11/1 -10%)Bergerac |
11/1(-10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Bergerac 11/1, Multiple-York winner who cashed in on a drop in the weights when bagging a brace of AW handicaps to end 2023. Respectable sixth of 17 in handicap at York (5f, good, 22/1) 17 days ago, nearest finish after slowly away and meeting trouble under 2f out. His turn could be near again. Latest race didn't pan out smoothly for him; on a workable mark; not ruled out. |
|||
10th (3)  (16/1 +20%)Makanah |
16/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Makanah 16/1, Tends to go well fresh and having slipped to lowest mark in almost 5 years, ran creditably after 7 months off when fourth at Newmarket (5f, good) on return. Rare poor effort at York 18 days ago. Visor goes on (bombed out when tried in cheekpieces previously). Inconsistent since last win; chance depends on how well he takes to visor. |
|||
11th (4)  (13/2 +41%)Jm Jungle |
13/2(+41%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Jm Jungle 13/2, Back-to-back handicap winner last summer. Respectable seventh of 17 in handicap (11/1) at York (5f, good) 17 days ago. Merits consideration. Has form figures of 1322 at Hamilton; each-way possibilities back here. |
|||
12th (12)  (80/1 -100%)Never Dark |
80/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Never Dark 80/1, C&D winner. Last of 12 in handicap (100/1) at York (5f, good) on return last week. Needs to leave that well behind. Engaged 7.20 Doncaster Saturday. Form has dipped sharply since Haydock win last September; opposed. |
|||
13th (9)  (16/1 +36%)Dickieburd |
16/1(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Dickieburd 16/1, Fifth of 6 in handicap at Pontefract (5f, good to soft, 9/2) 9 days ago. More needed. Held by Zarzyni on latest effort; faces a tougher task at this level. |
|||
14th (14)  (22/1 -175%)Jordan Electrics |
22/1(-175%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Jordan Electrics 22/1, 4-time course winner. Career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Carlisle (5f, good to firm, 5/2) 13 days ago. More needed in hat-trick bid. Bids for a hat-trick having won at Ayr and Carlisle the last twice; better than ever. |
|||
15th (13)  (33/1 -65%)Be Proud |
33/1(-65%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Be Proud 33/1, 9/1, sixth of 9 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, good) 2 days ago. Below par at Doncaster on Friday and not crying out for this return to 5f. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
DESPERATE HERO continues to improve and won a competitive sprint at Goodwood on his latest start. Jack Channon's charge looks sure to make another bold bid in this. King's Lynn was beaten only a neck by the selection at Goodwood and is preferred to Jm Jungle, who still looks a shade high in the weights. Aberama Gold is capable in this grade and drops back in trip, while Makanah is fitted with a visor after a poor effort at York. Musselburgh winner American Affair makes most appeal of Jim Goldie's three runners.
AMERICAN AFFAIR returned with an impressive display, turning a Musselburgh handicap into a rout, and a 10 lb rise probably underestimates his superiority. There is more to come from him, and he can score again up in class. Goodwood winner Desperate Hero is another going the right way, while Aberama Gold and Bergerac are a couple of the regulars in these races who must be on today's shortlist.
With further progress likely, AMERICAN AFFAIR (nap) could well defy a 10lb rise for his Musselburgh win. Bergerac is second choice.

18/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Dora Milaje 18/1, Lightly-raced winner. Fifth of 6 in handicap at Pontefract (8f, soft, 5/1) 32 days ago. Others make more appeal. Lightly raced; may resume her progress with Pontefract reappearance under her belt. |
|||
1st (3)  (15/2 +25%)Fiver Friday |
15/2(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Fiver Friday 15/2, Latest win at Ayr in April. 7/2, fifth of 8 in handicap at Sligo (10.6f, good) 18 days ago. Others more persuasive. Irish filly who has form figures of 41221 in Scottish races; one to consider. |
|||
2nd (4)  (9/2 +40%)Strong Impact |
9/2(+40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Strong Impact 9/2, 8/1, creditable fifth of 10 in handicap at Ascot (8f, good to firm) 22 days ago, slowly away. Enters calculations in this slightly less-competitive affair. Has a largely consistent record, close fifth in higher grade at Ascot most recently. |

3rd (8)  (7/2 +13%)Star Jasmine |
7/2(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Star Jasmine 7/2, Confirmed previous encouragement when landing 5-runner maiden at Bath (8f, heavy) 56 days ago. Opening mark looks fair and there's more to come, so makes plenty of appeal. Solid record in maidens, winning at Bath most recently; open to further progress. |
|||
4th (7)  (13/8 +28%)Warda Jamila |
13/8(+28%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Warda Jamila 13/8, Progressive form, gaining career win number 2 in 1¼m Ascot handicap 22 days ago, nicely on top at the finish. Open to further improvement and looks the one to beat. Scored comfortably at Ascot three weeks ago and looks the type to improve further. |
|||
5th (9)  (17/2 -21%)Cloudy Skye |
17/2(-21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Cloudy Skye 17/2, Lightly-raced maiden. Fourth of 7 in handicap (20/1) at Newcastle (10.2f) 21 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Open to improvement and not one to write off. May well build on AW reappearance effort; receives plenty of weight all round. |
|||
6th (5)  (10/1 +29%)Carolina Reaper |
10/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Carolina Reaper 10/1, 5½ lengths seventh of 9 to Devoted Queen in listed race at York (7.9f, good, 25/1) 16 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Uphill task. Has failed to transfer the form of her German Group 3 win back to home soil. |
|||
7th (1)  (50/1 -150%)Our Town |
50/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Our Town 50/1, First run since leaving Jean-Claude Rouget when 18½ lengths last of 8 to Royal Dress in listed race at Goodwood (8f, soft, 100/1) on UK debut 29 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Must improve. Drops in class on second British start but takes on some unexposed/progressive types. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
STRONG IMPACT wasn't beaten far when fifth in a tougher handicap at Ascot last month. Aidan Keeley's 3lb allowance helps her cause on this occasion and Roger Varian's filly gets the vote. Warda Jamila won over 1m2f at the same Ascot meeting as the selection but has an 8lb hike to contend with, while both Dora Milaje and Cloudy Skye ran well on their respective handicap debuts. Star Jasmine landed a maiden race at Bath in April and is another with scope for improvement now handicapping.
WARDA JAMILA arrives with a progressive profile and was well on top at the line when scoring at Ascot three weeks ago, so she's worth chancing to go in again at the likely expense of Star Jasmine, who is also going the right way. Strong Impact also makes some appeal for all that she lacks the potential of the aforementioned pair.
With further improvement on the cards, WARDA JAMILA is taken to defy an 8lb rise. Strong Impact is second choice.

1st (3)  (11/4 +39%)Mr Irrelevant |
11/4(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Mr Irrelevant 11/4, Not seen to best effect at York (7f) latest and had won back-to-back handicaps over this trip at Ripon and Doncaster previously. Remains feasibly treated and must enter calculations. Return to 7f backfired last weekend; has form figures of 32211 over 6f; still of interest. |
|||
2nd (1)  (3/1 +0%)Cargin Bhui |
3/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Cargin Bhui 3/1, 5f Wolverhampton winner on second start and improved again when runner-up under a penalty at Newcastle (decent form). Not seen to best effect in handicaps twice since, finishing with running left at Chester (6f) last month. Warrants respect. Didn't have an entirely smooth trip at Chester last time; may improve on that effort. |
|||
3rd (2)  (7/1 -110%)Ziggy's Queen |
7/1(-110%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Ziggy's Queen 7/1, Bit below form sixth of 17 in handicap at York (5f, good, 33/1) on return 16 days ago and yet to prove herself over this longer trip. Reappearance effort suggests this return to 6f is worth exploring; possibilities. |
|||
4th (5)  (11/4 +61%)Pals Battalion |
11/4(+61%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Pals Battalion 11/4, Won at Beverley (5f) on final start last term and posted fair form in both starts this season, latest when fourth of 15 in handicap at Haydock (6f, good to soft, 9/1) 8 days ago. Merits consideration. Not disgraced in a couple of 6f handicaps this term, fourth of 15 at Haydock latest. |
|||
5th (4)  (13/2 -30%)Miami Heat |
13/2(-30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Miami Heat 13/2, First run since leaving Dominic Ffrench Davis when respectable sixth of 11 in handicap (9/2) at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 41 days ago. 1 lb lower now and is entitled to build on that. May do better with Windsor reappearance (stable debut) under his belt. |
|||
6th (7)  (20/1 +20%)Havana Rose |
20/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Havana Rose 20/1, 20/1, tenth of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 30 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Good second off 4lb higher at Pontefract on last turf appearance; not ruled out. |
|||
7th (6)  (40/1 -82%)Petra Celera |
40/1(-82%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Petra Celera 40/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in November. 9/2, seventh of 8 in claimer at Leicester (7f, soft) 5 days ago. Looks in need of assistance from the handicapper. Has regressed in 7f events on soft/heavy for new yard; this looks more suitable. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
MR IRRELEVANT failed to see out the 7f trip at York last week having landed a double over today's distance before that. Grant Tuer's charge gets another chance with the ground also in his favour. Cargin Bhui had a difficult task drawn wide at Chester and better is expected from him, while Ziggy's Queen and Pals Battalion have both won over the minimum trip but have something to prove over this extra furlong.
The return to sprinting will suit MR IRRELEVANT and he can record his third success this year. Cargin Bhui and Pals Battalion may provide the chief threat.
Based on last-time-out bare figures, PALS BATTALION has the best chance at the weights. Ziggy's Queen is second choice.

8/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Natzor 8/1, Winner at Newcastle in May. 3/1, creditable sixth of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 10 days ago given he missed the break. Cheekpieces back on and needs considering. Good second at this venue on most recent turf attempt. |
|||
1st (15)  (22/1 -83%)Letsbefrank |
22/1(-83%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (15) Letsbefrank 22/1, Lightly-raced maiden who posted a solid fourth of 7 in handicap at Musselburgh (12.5f, good, 11/4) 30 days ago. Must enter calculations with progress on the cards. Still looked a shade green last time; remains open to improvement in handicaps. |
|||
2nd (2)  (14/1 -27%)Real Terms |
14/1(-27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Real Terms 14/1, Latest win at Southwell in March. Good 3½ lengths fourth of 10 to Natzor in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f, 12/1) 21 days ago. Not taken lightly. Fighting chance off current mark, provided she's back in peak form. |
|||
3rd (13)  (20/1 -67%)Tafsir |
20/1(-67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Tafsir 20/1, Landed 7-runner handicap at Ayr (13.1f, good) 19 days ago, well positioned. This course winner is in the picture. All wins in Class 6 races, latest at Ayr last month; this looks a harder task. |
|||
4th (9)  (10/1 -43%)Ludo's Landing |
10/1(-43%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Ludo's Landing 10/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Creditable second of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f, 5/2) 10 days ago, running on. Possibilities. Consistent on AW this year and looked unlucky last time; both wins on turf. |
|||
5th (3)  (10/3 +72%)My Little Queens |
10/3(+72%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) My Little Queens 10/3, C&D winner. Latest win here in May. Not best drawn when seventh of 10 in handicap (4/1) at Newcastle (10.2f) 21 days ago, slowly away. Merits consideration. Scored readily over C&D on most recent turf start, taking Hamilton record to 3-3. |
|||
6th (14)  (17/2 +66%)Jaminoz |
17/2(+66%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Jaminoz 17/2, Course winner. 15/2, below-par fourth of 7 in handicap at this course (13.1f, soft) 4 days ago. More is needed. Couple of creditable efforts here this term; in-form contender. |
|||
7th (11)  (13/2 +7%)Bearwith |
13/2(+7%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Bearwith 13/2, Latest win at Southwell in April. 9/4, unlucky fourth of 12 in handicap at Ripon (9.8f, good) 23 days ago, suffering a poor run from 2f out. Bold showing is on the cards. Won off this mark on AW in April; latest effort can be marked up; likely player. |
|||
8th (10)  (15/2 +58%)Destinado |
15/2(+58%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Destinado 15/2, 6 wins from 15 runs this year. 6/1, creditable sixth of 10 in handicap at Newbury (12f, good) 16 days ago. Blinkers back on. Can make his presence felt. Highly productive this year but may be in the assessor's grip now. |
|||
9th (12)  (13/2 +46%)Giselles Defence |
13/2(+46%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Giselles Defence 13/2, 1 win from 3 runs this year. Winner at Pontefract in May. Sixth of 8 in handicap at Chester (12.3f, good to firm, 9/4) 23 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Form dipped on good to firm ground last time; gained his Pontefract win on soft. |
|||
10th (7)  (8/1 +27%)Bulldog Spirit |
8/1(+27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Bulldog Spirit 8/1, Good 4½ lengths second of 8 to My Little Queens in handicap (9/1) at this C&D (good to soft) 28 days ago. Very much one to consider. Second to My Little Queens over C&D last time; won off 1lb higher this time last year. |
|||
11th (4)  (33/1 -136%)Detective |
33/1(-136%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Detective 33/1, C&D winner. Good second of 6 in handicap (10/1) at Carlisle (7.8f, good to firm) 13 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Can give a good account. Successful over C&D two years ago but losing run is mounting up. |
|||
12th (6)  (16/1 -33%)Bohemian Breeze |
16/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Bohemian Breeze 16/1, Creditable fifth of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f, 15/2) 21 days ago. In the mix. Mixed results this year but has become favourably handicapped. |
|||
13th (8)  (25/1 -25%)Sutue Alshams |
25/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Sutue Alshams 25/1, 10/1, creditable sixth of 10 in handicap at Catterick (12.1f, soft). Off 8 months. Not ruled out. Best watched in this competitive affair on reappearance. |
|||
14th (5)  (20/1 -25%)Where's Jeff |
20/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Where's Jeff 20/1, 1 win from 2 runs this year. Creditable 4¾ lengths fourth of 8 to My Little Queens in handicap at this C&D (good to soft, 5/1) 28 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Ought to be thereabouts. Almost 5l behind My Little Queens last time but now gets 7lb pull. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
My Little Queens is now 7lb higher than when beating Bulldog Spirit and JAMINOZ over track and trip early last month. The latter has subsequently ran well again back at this venue and may prove the one to side with in open affair. Tafsir scored over a longer trip at Ayr on her latest start and can figure again, while Detective showed signs of a return to form when runner-up over a mile at Carlisle and could go well.
Plenty are in with a shout. Harriet Bethell's BEARWITH didn't enjoy the rub of the green when fourth at Ripon last time and can gain compensation off just a 1 lb higher mark. In-form Real Terms also figures on a handy-looking mark and rates the main danger, although a solid case can also be made for Letsbefrank, Bulldog Spirit, Detective and My Little Queens in a very open contest.
Solid contender LUDO'S LANDING gets the verdict returned to turf. My Little Queens is second choice.

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.
