16:40 Hamilton Stakes (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Trainer Karl Burke has won two of the last three renewals of this race including with a 66/1 shot last season, and that suggests Beverley fifth Princess Alex may go well. Curious Rover made all to win at Catterick, but he will not get his own way at the head of affairs here if GLADLY EVER AFTER is allowed to bowl along. Third when swallowed up at Windsor last time out, the drop in trip could be key.

A tight novice featuring 4 previous winners. CURIOUS ROVER was well suited by the drop to 5f at Catterick last week and might be able to follow up turned out again quickly. Karl Burke has a good recent record in this race so Princess Alex could be the one to give Katie Scott's charge most to do ahead of Gladly Ever After.

Pick of the previous winners may be CURIOUS ROVER and he is marginally preferred to Almarada Prince.

17:15 Hamilton Stakes (Class 5) 12f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

In a very small field, Roger Varian's SPECTACULAR STYLE may be able to dictate things from the off with little guaranteed pace anywhere else in the line-up. Weigh Anchor looks like she needs a fast early pace to aim at and she may not get that here to bring her stamina into play, while Fly Awhile Johnny may get the better of Be Rural in the race for third spot.

A weak novice and it will be disappointing if SPECTACULAR STYLE can't get the job done up in trip. Weigh Anchor is the obvious forecast option.

Roger Varian's Frankel colt SPECTACULAR STYLE has been performing to a level that sets him apart in this company.

17:45 Hamilton Handicap (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow

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

The hat-trick seeking pair of Bellarchi and Chumbaa both run carrying a 6lb penalty for their latest successes, but neither put daylight between themselves and their opponents and they may end up fighting it out for the places. DC FLYER gets the nod after he won over C&D in July when making most of the running and, although 6lb higher now, he has been given over a month off to recover so comes in fresh.

Nick Bradley owns half the field and this might develop into a straight fight between his durable pair CHUMBAA and Bellarchi, with narrow preference for the former as both go in search of quick-fire hat-tricks.

The in-form CHUMBAA, successful at Ripon a week ago, is taken to follow up by beating Swordplay and Dc Flyer.

18:15 Hamilton Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

The first-time blinkers can provide the missing ingredient for HAPPIER, who has finished an admirable second in three of her four starts since she broke her maiden at Redcar in May. Creative Style can get closer to the selection after finishing a length and a half behind her in fourth at Carlisle last month. Iris Dancer, already a three-time winner over C&D, is also taken seriously.

EMILY POST bounced back in some style when going in at Pontefract last time and looks weighted to follow up despite a 5 lb rise given she remains unexposed at this trip. Iris Dancer has an excellent record here so rates the chief threat to Michael Dods's filly with Happier and Sacred Falls in the picture too.

Happier is still improving but three-time C&D winner IRIS DANCER (nap) may be the answer now back down in class.

18:45 Hamilton Handicap (Class 6) 9f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Chinese Spirit is high on the shortlist after coming good at Musselburgh last week, and is taken seriously turned out quickly under a 4lb penalty. However, this is a slightly deeper race and it could pay to side with MAC AILEY, who has shown signs of a revival on his last few starts and, having won off this mark before, he now has a live chance on these terms. Jaminoz and We Still Believe are other in-form contenders to consider.

MAC AILEY shaped well behind We Still Believe at Ripon last week and is fancied to come out on top this time. His old rival, Havana Party and Blazer Two are dangerous.

It could pay to side with the in-form WE STILL BELIEVE, who scored at Ripon last week.

19:15 Hamilton Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

RETIREMENT BECKONS refuses to live up to his name, winning last week for the 10th time with four of those here at Hamilton all over this distance. He got up late last time at Carlisle and a 4lb penalty may not be enough to stop him. C&D second Banner Road and the dropped-in-class Purple Gown are also of interest and may give the selection the most to think about.

PURPLE GOWN made an encouraging start for her new trainer at Ripon and looks interesting down in class. Banner Road remains in top form and seems sure to go well. Retirement Beckons has to be feared again.

In a trappy race NEFYN DAWN, who is less exposed than most, is taken to break his duck with Banner Road another likely to run well.

19:45 Hamilton Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Global Humor has to enter calculations with his two course wins coming off higher marks, but he was beaten 25 lengths at Catterick last month. Burtonlodge Beauty was a solid second here over five furlongs and should be better suited by this trip, but a chance is taken on DANDY SPIRIT. Better treated in this company after coming home last at Beverley, his last win was off this mark in May and we know he is capable in this grade.

It might be worth taking a chance on DANDY SPIRIT who won a couple of Class 6 events in the spring and is back on a good mark if refitted blinkers help him to stage a revival. Elladora is second choice returned to a venue where she has a good record. Giselles Izzy can also feature.

Global Humor is greatly respected but GISELLES IZZY is fancied to gain her second C&D win of the year.

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.
