(8)  (25/1 -14%)Sameem |
25/1(-14%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Sameem 25/1, Won twice (at up to 13.9f) for this rider last season and likely needed his recent Redcar reappearance. Not out of things. Won twice for E Roberts last year, incl at Catterick (1m6f, soft); second run of the year.. |
|||
1st (9)  (5/2 +50%)Sisterandbrother |
5/2(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Sisterandbrother 5/2, Come close on both starts for Harriet Dickin last month, short of room at the business end when third of 8 in handicap at Doncaster (11.9f, good) 7 days ago. Remains fairly treated, on debut for new yard, and is one for shortlist. Met trouble when third at Doncaster (1m4f) last week; since moved to K Frost; noteworthy.. |
|||
2nd (2)  (6/1 +40%)Unplugged |
6/1(+40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Unplugged 6/1, Won this event (off 6 lb lower) 12 months ago and should strip fitter for recent return at Pontefract. Warrants respect. Last year's winner (from a 6lb lower mark); sizable step forward from Pontefract required.. |
|||
3rd (10)  (17/2 -209%)Clifftop Heaven |
17/2(-209%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Clifftop Heaven 17/2, Made light of 18-month absence when taking 9-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (16.6f) for Brodie Hampson 37 days ago. Just as effective over this shorter trip and not taken lightly. Willing when scoring at Wolverhampton (2m, Class 6) early last month; 3lb rise looks fair.. |
|||
4th (4)  (7/1 -75%)My Harrison George |
7/1(-75%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) My Harrison George 7/1, Back on track when solid third of 9 in handicap at Pontefract (12f, good to soft) 14 days ago but is still looking for his first success after 9 attempts. Cheekpieces now tried. Yet to win (0-9), but has posted a couple of near misses on AW; cheekpieces newly applied.. |
|||
5th (7)  (100/1 -900%)Captain Haddock |
100/1(-900%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Captain Haddock 100/1, On a lengthy losing run and makes limited appeal despite an appealing handicap mark. Took small step back in the right direction at Leicester (1m4f, good) latest; easing mark.. |
|||
6th (1)  (50/1 -150%)Foveros |
50/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Foveros 50/1, Made the frame on several occasions over hurdles for this yard last season but finished well beaten on return to Flat at Ascot last month. Keen and weakened on return to the Flat at Ascot (2m, Class 4) recently; others preferred.. |
|||
7th (13)  (80/1 -700%)Rose Light |
80/1(-700%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Rose Light 80/1, Winner at Southwell in January and not disgraced in a couple of starts since but will need more to take a hand here on first start for new connections. With G Tutty when successful at Southwell (1m3f, from 3lb lower in February); stable debut. |
|||
8th (3)  (80/1 -344%)Just Hiss |
80/1(-344%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Just Hiss 80/1, Dual scorer (at up to 10.2f) last term who arrives on back of creditable fourth of 10 in handicap (40/1) at Ripon (9.8f, good to firm) on return 19 days ago. Each-way claims. Veteran; slowly away when keeping-on fourth on seasonal reappearance at Ripon (1m2f, good). |
|||
9th (11)  (100/1 -1567%)Virtual Hug |
100/1(-1567%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Virtual Hug 100/1, Consistent performer who has scored twice this year and posted another good effort when second of 11 in handicap at Bath (11.6f, good) 23 days ago. Likely to be in the mix again. Keeping-on after meeting trouble when runner-up at Bath (11.5f) latest; every chance.. |
|||
10th (6)  (100/1 -257%)Starfighter |
100/1(-257%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Starfighter 100/1, Below par at Newcastle latest and you have to go back to the summer of 2022 to find his last success on turf. No turf win since the summer of 2022; twice placed over 1m4f (AW) since turn of the year.. |
|||
11th (12)  (100/1 -150%)Swift Tuttle |
100/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Swift Tuttle 100/1, Back from 4 months off when well-beaten last of 9 to Clifftop Heaven in handicap at Wolverhampton (16.6f, 18/1) 37 days ago. Back down in trip and is hard to fancy. 0-13 Flat; remote last of nine to Clifftop Heaven at Wolverhampton latest; look elsewhere.. |
|||
12th (5)  (100/1 -1329%)Bloodhound |
100/1(-1329%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Bloodhound 100/1, Posted fair form the last twice, latest when good third of 11 in handicap at Bath (10.2f, heavy) 32 days ago. Still low mileage and could be a player on debut for new yard. Maiden (0-6); twice placed for C Hills; has recently joined A Wintle for 10,000gns.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
VIRTUAL HUG met trouble at a vital point at Bath last time and did well to occupy the runner-up berth. The son of Buratino is only 1lb higher for that effort and he could prove very hard to beat with a clearer passage this time around. Just Hiss overcame his slow start to finish a fair fourth in this grade over 1m2f at Ripon last month and he should remain competitive off 1lb lower, while Bloodhound is another to keep an eye on.
Plenty with claims here but SISTERANDBROTHER looked unlucky not to score at Doncaster last week and still looks on a workable mark. He gets the nod. Clifftop Heaven and Virtual Hug head the list of dangers.
The Wolverhampton regulars Clifftop Heaven, and Virtual Hug make the shortlist, but the preferred choice is SISTERANDBROTHER.

(5)  (2/1 +50%)Inner Peace |
2/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Inner Peace 2/1, Encouraging second at Yarmouth on debut, but only sixth of 11 in minor event at Nottingham (10.2f, good, 11/4) 28 days ago. However, he's well worth another chance with cheekpieces added (has been gelded). Promising debut and a little unlucky latest; step up in trip positive; cheekpieces go on.. |
|||
(1)  (6/1 -50%)Sunbelt |
6/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Sunbelt 6/1, Showed inexperience but looked a useful prospect when winning 8-runner minor event at Yarmouth (8f, soft, 7/2) on debut back in October 2022. Absent since but she's respected for her leading yard. Debut 1m winner in October 2022; absence to overcome but represents top yard; go well.. |
|||
(8)  (10/1 -11%)Raja Raja |
10/1(-11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Raja Raja 10/1, Showed more than on debut when sixth of 12 in maiden at Newbury (10f, good, 22/1) 3 weeks ago, finishing with running left having run green. Likely to progress further. Promise on both starts at Newbury but likely to need a bigger step forward to win this.. |
|||
(6)  (11/1 -10%)Kingdom Of Stars |
11/1(-10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Kingdom Of Stars 11/1, Looked green but some encouragement when fifth of 13 in minor event at Windsor (10f, good, 100/1) on debut 53 days ago. Entitled to progress with that run behind him. Outperformed his odds of 100-1 odds debut; another for whom this longer trip is positive.. |
|||
(7)  (14/1 -27%)Raging Al |
14/1(-27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Raging Al 14/1, Held back by inexperience making his first start when ninth of 13 in minor event at Windsor (10f, good, 5/1) 53 days ago. Big step forward required but he remains capable of better. 5-1 and beaten over 15l on debut; may be capable of better but has that to prove.. |
|||
(2)  (50/1 -52%)Lesrico |
50/1(-52%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Lesrico 50/1, Little impact in 2 starts so far, very green early on when tenth of 12 in minor event at Nottingham (10.2f, good, 200/1) 17 days ago. Looks to be up against it. Bucked on breaking from the stalls at Nottingham last month; plenty to prove.. |
|||
1st (9)  (7/4 +42%)Subsequent |
7/4(+42%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Subsequent 7/4, Left debut form behind when second of 9 in minor event at Salisbury (9.9f, heavy, 10/1) 22 days ago, keeping on well. Not taken lightly with more still to offer upped in trip. Stepped up on his debut latest; step up in trip positive; scope for further improvement.. |
|||
2nd (4)  (11/10 +60%)Gulf Legend |
11/10(+60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Gulf Legend 11/10, After 8 months off, much improved from debut when third of 12 in maiden at Newbury (10f, good, 7/2) 3 weeks ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time and he can build on his reappearance run to go one better. Third in a Newbury maiden (1m2f, good); step up in trip positive; should be thereabouts.. |
|||
3rd (3)  (40/1 -122%)Yurinov |
40/1(-122%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Yurinov 40/1, Bred to stay well but failed to repeat his first effort when fifth of 7 in maiden at Catterick (12.1f, soft, 6/1) 15 days ago. Has something to find, though he should still be suited by this trip. Beaten over 8l at Catterick (1m4f, soft) latest; needs a big step up on that.. |
|||
4th (10)  (100/1 -52%)Unregulated |
100/1(-52%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Unregulated 100/1, Made little impression on his first outing when tenth of 11 in minor event at Nottingham (10.2f, good, 150/1) 28 days ago. Looks one for the longer term. 150-1 on debut, when 14l 10th of 11 at Nottingham (1m2f, good); others preferred.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Sunbelt hasn't been seen since scoring on her debut over a mile at Yarmouth in October 2022, so it will be interesting to see how she fares in the market on her return. However, the vote goes to the race-fit SUBSEQUENT, who took a big leap forward from his debut effort to take the silver medal over 1m2f at Salisbury last month, shaping as if this step up in trip would be a good move. With further progression, the son of Galileo could prove very hard to beat. Inner Peace isn't out of it in first-time cheekpieces.
GULF LEGEND made a promising reappearance when third at Newbury last month, form boosted by the runner-up winning next time, and he can continue his progression to open his account. Subsequent also improved from his debut when runner-up at Salisbury 22 days ago and could be the main danger, ahead of Inner Peace.
One of several potential improvers is SUBSEQUENT, who went close last time and should be suited by this longer trip. He gets the vote.

(9)  (9/2 -13%)The King's General |
9/2(-13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) The King's General 9/2, Dubawi colt. Twice-raced maiden. 9/2, showed more when fourth of 11 in minor event at Nottingham (10.2f, good) 28 days ago. Open to further improvement. Going the right way; step up in trip positive and no surprise to see him come out on top.. |
|||
(4)  (9/2 -29%)Hampden |
9/2(-29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Hampden 9/2, Has plenty of stamina in his pedigree and he took a step forward in line with the 3f longer trip when second in 5-runner Wolverhampton handicap on penultimate outing. Not in same form at York since but merits plenty of respect in this company. Went close (1m4f, AW) in April; needs to improve on his turf form now back in this sphere.. |
|||
(5)  (15/8 +32%)King's Reign |
15/8(+32%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) King's Reign 15/8, Dubawi colt who cost 1,500,000 gns as a yearling and he's a half-brother to smart 2-y-o 7f/1m winner Silver Knott. Encouraging both starts at 2 yrs and he's a likely improver having been gelded over the winter (also in cheekpieces now). Return to further positive and if cheekpieces do the trick he could emerge as a player.. |
|||
(8)  (33/1 +0%)Something |
33/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Something 33/1, 57,000 gns Golden Horn colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including smart 1m winner Dubai Mirage and 1¼m winner Calliandra. Went in snatches when last of 7 in maiden at York (7.9f, soft) on debut. Off 7 months (gelded). Significantly up in trip. Probably one for handicaps. 14-1 on debut at York (1m, soft) when last of seven; since gelded; much more needed.. |
|||
(10)  (33/1 +0%)Valued |
33/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Valued 33/1, 9,000 gns yearling, 95,000 gns 2-y-o, Almanzor colt. Very green when last of 7 in minor event at Thirsk (12f, good to firm, 14/1) on debut 20 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Last of seven on debut at Thirsk; should come on for that; cheekpieces go on.. |
|||
1st (6)  (8/13 +67%)Move On In |
8/13(+67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Move On In 8/13, Masar gelding. Twice-raced maiden. 5/4, caught only late by a strong stayer when second of 5 in maiden at this course (8f, heavy). Off 8 months. Significantly up in trip. Player having been gelded during absence. Will have a bit to prove trip-wise over this far but could be involved if he sees it out.. |
|||
2nd (7)  (15/2 +63%)My Dream World |
15/2(+63%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) My Dream World 15/2, Postoponed colt offered something to work on when seventh of 14 in minor event at Chelmsford City (10f) on debut back in December. Up in trip. Should progress but will need a sizeable step forward to figure this time. Not disgraced on debut at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW) in December; needs a big step up on that.. |
|||
3rd (3)  (100/1 -1438%)Far L'amore |
100/1(-1438%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Far L'amore 100/1, Territories gelding. Thrice-raced maiden. 6/4, third of 4 in minor event at Lingfield (10f, good) 15 days ago. Should be capable of another competitive effort but may be vulnerable to an improver.. |
|||
4th (1)  (100/1 -25%)Mad Mode |
100/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Mad Mode 100/1, Little show in juvenile/novice hurdles, so very hard to fancy on Flat debut. Well beaten in two hurdles; dam half-sister to Classic Cliche but probably best watched.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
THE KING'S GENERAL attempted to make all but faded in fourth in the closing stages at Nottingham on his latest outing and he now takes a step up in distance. With a change of tactics and the likelihood of plenty more to offer, he can take the step forward required to get his head in front. Move On In has been gelded since failing to justify favouritism when second over 1m here in September last year and he should go well on his return to the fray. Of the rest, King's Reign makes the most appeal.
KING'S REIGN cost a fortune as a yearling and showed enough in a pair of starts last season to think he'll do much better at 3 yrs. Hampden wasn't quite at his best in a York handicap last time but should be able to make an impact in these calmer waters, with Move On In and The King's General also holding leading claims.
This step up in trip could help the improving THE KING'S GENERAL take another step forward and break his duck at the third attempt.

(6)  (6/1 -50%)Cold Stare |
6/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Cold Stare 6/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Thirsk in April. 16/1, good second of 8 in handicap at Hamilton (6f, soft) 9 days ago, finishing well. Leading claims and could get back to winning ways if they go a strong pace. Haydock regular; 2lb 'well-in' after going close at Hamilton recently; soft ground suits.. |
|||
(16)  (7/1 -40%)Snuggle |
7/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (16) Snuggle 7/1, Latest win at Windsor in April. Creditable second of 9 in handicap at Windsor (6f, heavy, 5/1) 32 days ago. Likely to be thereabouts again. Back to form at Windsor over the past six weeks; each-way claims in an open contest.. |
|||
(5)  (9/2 -13%)Trilby |
9/2(-13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Trilby 9/2, 2 wins from 5 runs this year. Respectable sixth of 21 in handicap (14/1) at York (6f, good) 13 days ago, left poorly placed. Should be on the premises in this slightly less-competitive event. C&D winner (from 5lb lower mark) in April; latest York effort was positive; possibilities.. |
|||
(11)  (10/1 -11%)Master Dandy |
10/1(-11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Master Dandy 10/1, Lightly-raced winner. Fifth of 7 in handicap at Yarmouth (7f, soft, 9/2) 16 days ago. Drop back in trip will suit and mark looks handy, so not discounted. Modest since introduced to handicapping; still low mileage and drop back to 6f is helpful.. |
|||
(9)  (10/1 +29%)Harry's Halo |
10/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Harry's Halo 10/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 6/1, below form fourth of 9 in handicap at Catterick (6f, soft) 7 days ago, nearest finish. Others have achieved more. Acts on heavy ground; has form lines with Trilby & Ray Vonn; one to seriously consider.. |
|||
(8)  (13/2 +7%)Ray Vonn |
13/2(+7%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Ray Vonn 13/2, Career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Nottingham (6.1f, good to firm, 8/1) 28 days ago. Can do better still, so makes plenty of appeal. Resumed winning ways at Nottingham (6f, good); subsequent 3lb rise looks fair; thereabouts. |
|||
1st (2)  (7/2 +75%)Grant Wood |
7/2(+75%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Grant Wood 7/2, 2 wins from 6 runs this year. Latest win at Newcastle in February. 33/1, eleventh of 18 in handicap at York (7f, good) 13 days ago. Others more persuasive. Won back-to-back on AW (Southwell & Newcastle) earlier in the year; stiff enough mark?. |
|||
2nd (4)  (13/2 +59%)Tremblant |
13/2(+59%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Tremblant 13/2, 9/2, seventh of 10 in handicap at Newmarket (6f, good) 20 days ago. Best not judged on latest effort, so remains one to have in mind. Ran well on first start since wind surgery (5f); hung right at Newmarket (6f) subsequently. |
|||
3rd (12)  (20/1 +9%)Kodi Red |
20/1(+9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Kodi Red 20/1, Last of 12 in handicap at Ripon (5f, good to firm, 5/1) 28 days ago. May strip fitter for that return, so shouldn't be completely discounted. No win since 2yo days with A Murray; difficult to draw confidence from last three starts.. |
|||
4th (7)  (28/1 -211%)Minnesota Lad |
28/1(-211%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Minnesota Lad 28/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. 10/3, last of 9 in handicap at Carlisle (5f, good to firm) 18 days ago. Type to get back on track, so not ruled out. Sole win came in a 5f Beverley maiden in summer of 2022; poor Carlisle effort (5f) latest.. |
|||
5th (10)  (40/1 -100%)Thornaby Pearl |
40/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Thornaby Pearl 40/1, Latest win at Doncaster in March. Respectable fifth of 12 in handicap (7/1) at Ripon (5f, good to firm) 28 days ago. Merits consideration. 5lb higher than for winning Doncaster (5f) seasonal reappearance; others make more appeal.. |
|||
6th (13)  (50/1 -127%)Snash |
50/1(-127%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Snash 50/1, Latest win at Southwell in December. Eighth of 12 in handicap at Catterick (6f, good, 13/2) 25 days ago. Needs to bounce back. 1lb lower than when scoring at Southwell (6f) in December; hooded both starts this year.. |
|||
7th (3)  (10/1 +38%)Vince Lombardi |
10/1(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Vince Lombardi 10/1, 4/1, first run since leaving Grant Tuer when last of 13 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 13 days ago. Not easy to make a case for. Won for G Tuer at Hamilton (6f) last summer; slowly away on first start for this yard.. |
|||
8th (14)  (66/1 -136%)The Cruising Lord |
66/1(-136%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) The Cruising Lord 66/1, 11/1, ninth of 13 in handicap at Leicester (7f, good). Off 8 months. First run for yard after leaving Robyn Brisland. Worth a market check. Gradually lost way after winning at Newbury (6f) last summer; first start for this yard.. |
|||
9th (1)  (40/1 -186%)Animate |
40/1(-186%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Animate 40/1, 66/1, below form thirteenth of 20 in handicap at York (7f, good) 21 days ago. Has work to do. Yet to make the frame on turf (0-7); eased in grade (& 2lb) since latest York run (7f).. |

10th (15)  (11/1 +50%)Hallowed Time |
11/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (15) Hallowed Time 11/1, Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. 20/1, bit below form 5½ lengths sixth of 12 to Trilby in handicap at this C&D (heavy) 41 days ago. Blinkers back on. Not discounted. All three wins in France for E O'Neill; behind Trilby & Harry's Halo over C&D in April.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
A creditable second to a subsequent winner in the mud at Windsor last time out, SNUGGLE looks the one to beat on his return to better ground, having scored in similar conditions on his penultimate outing. Narrowly denied last time out and a three-time winner around here, Cold Stare must enter calculations, along with Ray Vonn, who regained the winning thread with a determined performance at Nottingham last month. Others to note include Minnesota Lad, Trilby and Vince Lombardi.
COLD STARE returned to form and hit the line strong at Hamilton 9 days ago and, if the pace is solid, he may be able to go one better in an open race. Ray Vonn is an obvious danger on the back of a reappearance win and Trilby is one to bear in mind dropping in grade.
Kevin Frost's HARRY'S HALO can reverse placings with Trilby from their April C&D clash. Cold Stare is next best.

(6)  (9/2 +31%)Thursday's Child |
9/2(+31%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Thursday's Child 9/2, Harry Angel filly. Impressed when landing first 2 starts in maiden/novice company and improved further when fourth pitched in to big field handicap York (7f) 23 days ago. Steadily going the right way and unlikely we've seen the best of her yet. Respected. Unexposed filly who was a good 4th at the Dante meeting last month; capable of better. |
|||
(7)  (22/1 -57%)Miss Bella Brand |
22/1(-57%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Miss Bella Brand 22/1, Always well placed when adding to her tally at Kempton (7f) in November. Efforts mixed since but confirmed more positive signs from Thirsk (fitted with a visor) when keeping on for third at Nottingham (6f) 4 weeks ago. Comes here operating 2 lb below last winning mark. Back to form when third at Nottingham last month; dangerous mark and not discounted. |
|||
1st (5)  (5/1 -67%)Nighteyes |
5/1(-67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Nighteyes 5/1, Ended juvenile campaign with success at Ripon (6f) last August and having shaped better than bare result on return at Yarmouth (7f) in April she duly took a marked step forward to land 5-runner Chester handicap (6f) 13 days ago. Likely there's even more to come. Easily saw off four rivals at Chester two weeks ago; up 7lb against better opposition now. |
|||
2nd (1)  (4/1 -14%)Ananda |
4/1(-14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Ananda 4/1, Low-mileage daughter of Frankel who saw off a useful sort on second of her 2 starts at 2yrs. Missed whole of last year but confirmed she retains all of her ability back from 20 months off when runner-up in 18-runner Doncaster novice (6f) 3 weeks ago. More to come now handicapping. Hood on. Over-raced back from a long absence last month but it was still a big run; new hood; solid. |
|||
3rd (8)  (13/8 +41%)Cuban Melody |
13/8(+41%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Cuban Melody 13/8, Havana Grey filly. Fair form when placed on first 2 starts on AW and probably benefited from drop to 6f when improving to open her account in 13-runner Windsor novice 25 days ago. Opening mark looks workable switched to handicaps. Edged left but well on top at Windsor latest (6f, good to firm); more to come in handicaps. |
|||
4th (3)  (80/1 -900%)Cuban Breeze |
80/1(-900%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Cuban Breeze 80/1, Course winner who ended long losing run at Chelmsford (6f) in November. Below form final 2 starts thereafter on AW but possible she needed the run back from 5 months off when sixth of 7 in handicap at Windsor (6f) 18 days ago. However, could be vulnerable to younger rivals here. On last winning mark and should be sharper with her reappearance behind her; can go well. |
|||
5th (4)  (11/1 +0%)Rock Melody |
11/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Rock Melody 11/1, All 3 victories last term came at Musselburgh, latterly over 7f in October. Steadily back to form this time around, coming from further back than others in the frame when fourth returned to that venue 6 days ago. One to keep an eye on. On winning mark and more promise the last twice; this looks a fair race of its type though. |
|||
6th (2)  (20/1 +20%)Sparkling Red |
20/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Sparkling Red 20/1, Dual 5f winner who ran best race yet reverting back to front-running tactics when second at Redcar (6f) in September. Below best on AW final start but likely she'll strip fitter for last month's Thirsk reappearance effort and she won second time out last term. Two 5f wins but stays 6f well; sharper for last month's return; needs a career best. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
ANANDA showed that the ability is still intact when putting in a strong runner-up effort on her return from a 611-day break at Doncaster last month. A mark of 82 looks manageable on her handicap debut and this daughter of Frankel may have too much for easy Chester winner Nighteyes, as well as the unexposed Cuban Melody, who got off the mark in taking fashion at Windsor last month.
NIGHTEYES confirmed her reappearance promise in no uncertain terms and marked herself down as one to keep on side when running out a ready winner at Chester 2 weeks ago, quickening to lead final 1f and drawing clear. Open to further improvement, she earns the vote to come out on top again. Ananda, Thursday's Child and Rock Melody head up the dangers in an interesting fillies' handicap.
3yos Cuban Melody and Thursday's Child are greatly respected but ANANDA brings untapped potential too.

(8)  (5/6 +49%)Royal Officer |
5/6(+49%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Royal Officer 5/6, Foaled May 13. 125,000 gns yearling, 1,000,000 gns 2-y-o, Galileo colt. Closely related to 2-y-o 1m winner Mrs Frankel and useful 10.5f/11f winner Hidden Dimples. Every inch a likely-looking type for powerful connections and confidence behind him in the betting would look significant. Eyecatching pedigree; trainer is 34% with turf 2yos (last five seasons).. |
|||
(1)  (17/2 -113%)Aegean Sea |
17/2(-113%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Aegean Sea 17/2, Foaled February 23. Kingman colt. Dam, French 1¼m winner sole start, half-sister to useful 1m winner Pabouche out of very smart winner up to 1½m (2-y-o 1m winner) High Heeled. Likely type on paper and interesting to see how he shapes up in the betting. Kingman colt; first foal; dam French 1m2f winner (RPR 79); go well for top stable.. |
|||
1st (9)  (9/4 +36%)Seagulls Eleven |
9/4(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Seagulls Eleven 9/4, Promising type. 16/5, second of 6 in minor event at this C&D (soft) on debut 14 days ago with the re-opposing Green Storm 3½ lengths back in third. Open to improvement. Promising 1l second over C&D (Green Storm over 3l behind him); should be involved.. |
|||
2nd (5)  (9/1 +0%)Green Storm |
9/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Green Storm 9/1, Once-raced maiden. 8/1, third of 6 in minor event at this C&D (soft) on debut 14 days ago. Should have more to offer with that run under his belt. Can probably step up on debut promise and no surprise to see him feature more closely.. |
|||
3rd (6)  (13/2 +59%)Hofburg |
13/2(+59%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Hofburg 13/2, Once-raced maiden. Fourth of 8 in maiden (17/2) at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) on debut 22 days ago. May well do better with that experience to draw upon here. Weakened out of it on debut (6f); longer trip and that experience can help him get closer.. |
|||
4th (2)  (7/2 +53%)Best Adventure |
7/2(+53%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Best Adventure 7/2, Foaled April 3. 650,000 gns yearling, Frankel colt. Brother to 10.7f winner Cow Chico. Dam winner up to 1m (2-y-o 7f winner), third in Irish 1000 Guineas. There's much to like about this newcomer on paper and he needs close attention in the betting. 650,000gns yearling; second foal; brother to 10.6f AW winner Cow Chico (RPR 87).. |
|||
5th (3)  (13/2 +7%)Castle Stuart |
13/2(+7%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Castle Stuart 13/2, Foaled February 26. Dubawi colt. Dam, useful French 2-y-o 7.5f winner, half-sister to smart 1¼m/10.2f winner Forest of Dean. Yard no stranger to success with 2-y-os, including newcomers, and the market will be instructive. Dam French Group-placed 7.5f AW 2yo winner (RPR 104), half-sister to three winners.. |
|||
6th (7)  (12/1 +70%)Kings College |
12/1(+70%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Kings College 12/1, Foaled March 19. €25,000 yearling, 68,000 gns 2-y-o, Churchill colt. Dam, French 6f/7f winner, half-sister to useful winner up to 1½m Anhar. Probably best watched on debut. 68,000gns 2yo; dam French 6f/7f winner; market can guide.. |
|||
7th (4)  (11/1 +50%)Claim To Glory |
11/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Claim To Glory 11/1, Foaled February 6. £24,000 yearling, Aclaim colt. Dam French maiden sister to Canadian winner up to 1½m (minor stakes and 2-y-o 6f/7f winner) Lickety Lemon. Yard also saddles Seagulls Eleven. £24,000 yearling; first foal; dam placed 1m5f/13.5f in France; market check suggested.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Charlie Appleby has won this race twice in the last three years with subsequent Group/Grade 1 winners, which means that ROYAL OFFICER has to be of interest. The son of Galileo was a 1,000,000gns purchase at a breeze-up sale in April and he is closely related to the French 1m3f Listed winner Hidden Dimples. Seagulls Eleven (second) was a place in front of Green Storm (third) when they met on debut over C&D recently and Hugo Palmer's colt could well confirm that form here. Best Adventure was another costly purchase at 650,000gns and he has to be noted, along with Aegean Sea and Castle Stuart.
The eye is immediately drawn to ROYAL OFFICER, who represents top connections and both his pedigree and price tag suggest that he will prove to an above-average newcomer. Seagulls Eleven is the clear pick of the trio with experience and he is feared, along with likely-looking types Aegean Sea and Best Adventure.
Charlie Appleby has saddled two of the last three winners of this race and his ROYAL OFFICER gets the vote.

(8)  (4/1 -45%)Amancio |
4/1(-45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Amancio 4/1, Course winner in April. 11/10, ran at least as well in defeat when second of 5 in handicap at this C&D (soft) a fortnight ago. Shortlist material from an unchanged mark. Made all over 1m in April and bold bid when second over 1m2f latest, both on soft here. |
|||
(5)  (8/1 +20%)Asimov |
8/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Asimov 8/1, 15/2 and tongue strap on for 1st time, wasn't seen to best effect when fourth of 10 in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, good) 17 days ago, caught further back than ideal. Up in trip. Needs better but there was promise in the way he came from last to 4th at Nottingham (1m). |
|||
(3)  (14/1 -17%)Double Jump |
14/1(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Double Jump 14/1, Proved a different proposition switched to a nursery when landing a 7-runner event at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) in September. Not scaled same heights in 2 starts so far this spring though, eighth of 11 in handicap (25/1) at Ascot (8f, good) 4 weeks ago. Below form in his two handicaps (7f/1m) this term; far from sure to stay 1m2f on pedigree. |
|||
(7)  (16/1 -78%)Volto Di Medusa |
16/1(-78%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Volto Di Medusa 16/1, Made a winning return in a Bath maiden in April and ran to a similar level when sixth of 7 on handicap debut at Nottingham (8.3f, good, 11/2) just under 4 weeks ago, unable to sustain effort. Up in trip. Work to do from this mark. Handicap debut last time shows that marked improvement is needed; well worth a go at 1m2f. |
|||
1st (2)  (Evens +67%)Old Cock |
Evens(+67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Old Cock Evens, Confirmed debut promise switched to turf when won 5-runner maiden (1/4) at Ayr (8f, good to soft) 39 days ago, drawing clear final 1f. Up in trip. Makes handicap debut and he's capable of better. Promise both 1m starts; no fuss when he scored at 1-4 in five-runner maiden at Ayr (good). |
|||
2nd (6)  (5/2 +72%)Devoirs Choice |
5/2(+72%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Devoirs Choice 5/2, 16/5, failed to improve making handicap/turf debut when fifth of 9 at Yarmouth (8f, good to soft) just under 5 weeks ago, needing stronger gallop. Up in trip. Worth another chance to build on his eye-catching third start (has been gelded since last seen). The first under major pressure last time (1m; favourite) and his dam was a 1m4f winner. |
|||
3rd (10)  (25/1 -317%)Campaign Medal |
25/1(-317%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Campaign Medal 25/1, Never involved from a wide draw on qualifying run when seventh of 11 in minor event at Nottingham (8.3f, good, 25/1) 4 weeks ago. Tongue strap enlisted for this handicap debut and improvement on the cards now faced with a stiffer test. Needs improvement on this handicap debut but his dam stayed 1m4f and a tongue-tie is added. |
|||
4th (4)  (14/1 -100%)Winter Life |
14/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Winter Life 14/1, 25/1, showed much improved form on her qualifying run when second of 7 in maiden at Ripon (9.8f, good to firm) 19 days ago, albeit flattered by proximity. Makes handicap debut. Kept on well at 25-1 for second of seven in maiden at Ripon (1m2f, good) last time. |
|||
5th (9)  (28/1 -27%)King's School |
28/1(-27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) King's School 28/1, 6/4, proved a let-down after 4 months off when last of 4 on handicap debut at Southwell (12.1f) just under 10 weeks ago. Makes turf debut. First run for yard after leaving David Simcock (unraced for Harry Charlton but sold for 17,000 gns). Left D Simcock for 17,000gns five weeks ago, after a handicap debut flop; turf debut. |
|||
6th (1)  (33/1 -267%)Normandy Legend |
33/1(-267%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Normandy Legend 33/1, Possibly unsuited by conditions when eighth of 11 in minor event at Windsor (8.1f, heavy, 7/2) 32 days ago. Up in trip. Makes handicap debut and remains with potential back on a sounder surface. 20-1 second in Kempton maiden (1m, AW) is vastly better than starts either side; hood off. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
OLD COCK confirmed the promise that he displayed on debut when getting off the mark in impressive style over a mile at Ayr next time. Further progression seems highly likely and an opening mark of 77 may well underestimate him. Winter Life is also progressive and could prove to be the main threat, although Asimov and Amancio are also capable of going well.
Plenty of unexposed types in this 3-y-o handicap but it's one of the most experienced in AMANCIO who gets the nod to resume winning ways having found just one too good over C&D a fortnight ago. Normand Legend and Campaign Medal are both open to improvement switching to handicaps, so they can provide most resistance, while Devoirs Choice is another who shouldn't be underestimated after an eye-catching third start.
Amancio sets the standard on handicap form. The rest are less exposed and OLD COCK (nap), in particular, brings plenty of promise.

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.
