(11)  (33/1 -18%)Takes Time |
33/1(-18%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Takes Time 33/1, Ran well behind French listed winner in 1m fillies' novice here in April but subsequent switch to handicaps over further has been underwhelming. Down another 4 lb with cheekpieces reached for. Struggled in both handicaps and needs a major turnaround with cheekpieces added. |
|||
1st (9)  (20/1 -186%)Financer |
20/1(-186%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Financer 20/1, Left previous efforts well behind in making a winning start to life in handicaps at Redcar over this trip a fortnight ago, coming clear cosily. Isn't yet the finished article and can go well again up 3 lb. Overcame trouble when scoring on handicap debut at Redcar (1m2f); respected up 3lb. |
|||
2nd (1)  (100/1 -900%)Elemental Eye |
100/1(-900%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Elemental Eye 100/1, Showed his form for the first time this season when second at Musselburgh (9f) 3 weeks ago, the return to a sounder surface perhaps the catalyst, and he would have made the winner work harder had he not got caught behind a weakening rival at a crucial stage. Respected off the same mark. Back to form with second at Musselburgh latest; handles most ground and he's in the mix. |
|||
3rd (8)  (4/1 -14%)Clear Storm |
4/1(-14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Clear Storm 4/1, Off the mark on handicap debut at Nottingham (10.2f) and ran well in first-time cheekpieces at Hamilton (11f) last week, just finding an unexposed filly too strong. Respected off the same mark. Went close at Hamilton last week and is on same mark here; key player for in-form yard. |
|||
4th (7)  (11/1 -144%)Anglepoise |
11/1(-144%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Anglepoise 11/1, Steadily progressive form, disputing lead until over 2f out upped to this trip in useful Nottingham novice 6 weeks ago. Well bred and it'll be a disappointment if she can't do better in handicaps now. Well-bred filly who has shown clear promise and looks interesting on her handicap debut. |
|||
5th (4)  (40/1 -400%)Carpathian |
40/1(-400%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Carpathian 40/1, Getting the hang of things in handicaps, settling better when second in 6-runner C&D contest a fortnight ago. Could have a race or two in her. Good second over C&D latest and she's only 1lb higher here; respected. |
|||
6th (10)  (25/1 -614%)Sheen Falls Time |
25/1(-614%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Sheen Falls Time 25/1, Progressive filly who made a successful handicap debut at Sligo (10.6f) and ran at least as well in defeat in big-field 9f Leopardstown contest 3 weeks ago. One to consider. Won at Sligo before a good second of 22 at Leopardstown last time; shortlisted. |
|||
7th (6)  (25/1 -14%)Roman Secret |
25/1(-14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Roman Secret 25/1, Improved in line with the step up to 1m late last year, getting off the mark in nursery at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in November. Well held in 2 handicaps back on turf this year. More needed. 25-1 win at Wolverhampton last November but well held in two turf runs this season. |
|||
8th (2)  (100/1 -1011%)Alacrity |
100/1(-1011%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Alacrity 100/1, AW maiden winner over this trip in November. Sound return at Windsor but not so good at Hamilton since. Might want further. Well held in both handicaps and she's untried on slow ground; others preferred. |
|||
9th (3)  (100/1 -525%)Cloud Free |
100/1(-525%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Cloud Free 100/1, Runner-up twice at around 1m but yet to make much impact in handicaps (gelded prior to latest start). Visor goes on. Record of 4878 in handicaps and he was tailed off latest; lots to prove with visor added. |
|||
10th (12)  (100/1 -257%)Finn Ironside |
100/1(-257%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Finn Ironside 100/1, Promising return at Hamilton (extended 1m) and this longer trip should suit but he needs to pull out a fair bit more to open his account here. Seven-race maiden and he needs to find something extra at this new trip. |
|||
11th (5)  (66/1 -725%)Marianglas |
66/1(-725%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Marianglas 66/1, Form dipped on last month's handicap debut (extended 1m at Nottingham) but could do better back up in trip. Still early days and now goes back up in trip but she needs improvement. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Despite being impeded by a loose horse for most of the race, SHEEN FALLS TIME did remarkably well to fill the runner-up spot at Leopardstown last month. The daughter of Fastnet Rock makes only her third handicap start and, with the likelihood of more to come, she looks the way to go. Clear Storm finished four lengths clear of the third when runner-up at Hamilton last time and this slight drop in trip looks a good move, so William Haggas' filly has to be considered. Alacrity completes the shortlist.
FINANCER ran out a cosy winner on his handicap debut at Redcar a fortnight ago and can go on improving, so he could follow up. Clear Storm can go well again, while the well-bred Anglepoise looks a likely improver now handicapping at a low base.
An interesting race in which last week's Hamilton runner-up CLEAR STORM gets the vote ahead of Sheen Falls Time and Anglepoise.

1st (3)  (11/1 -57%)Miss Alpilles |
11/1(-57%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Miss Alpilles 11/1, Bred to stay well and having displayed promise in maidens, she wasn't at her best when eighth of 10 on handicap debut at Ascot (10f) in May. Steps up in trip now with a hood fitted and she's certainly not one to write off. Mixed record in her four runs and was laboured on handicap debut latest; hood now added. |
|||
2nd (6)  (5/2 +9%)Aulis |
5/2(+9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Aulis 5/2, Ulysses gelding who displayed some promise in novice events at 2 yrs and fair form in trio of in-the-frame efforts at around 12f in recent months. Stable continue in fine form and he's one to consider. Runner-up behind handicap blot at Newbury latest; respected for yard that won this in 2023. |
|||
3rd (2)  (66/1 -1100%)Across Earth |
66/1(-1100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Across Earth 66/1, Solid start in handicaps when second at Southwell (12f) in March and dispelled a lesser effort at Sandown (gelded in interim) when third in a C&D maiden 2 weeks ago. Possible he'll come on for that and rider takes off handy 5 lb ahead of return to handicaps. Best form has been on AW and well held in turf handicaps last twice; something to prove. |
|||
4th (4)  (25/1 -213%)Mister Daydream |
25/1(-213%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Mister Daydream 25/1, 1m nursery winner at Bath last summer who returned with an improved display when third of 5 at Carlisle (11.2f) in June. Took a backward step when last of 5 at Redcar (10f) 2 weeks ago so bounce back called for now. Held since his nursery win last September and is now 1-8; down the list. |
|||
5th (5)  (80/1 -2567%)Spartan Warrior |
80/1(-2567%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Spartan Warrior 80/1, Improved further when making it back-to-back wins in 9-runner handicap (7/4) at Beverley (12.1f, good to firm) in May, rallying to lead again line. That race has thrown up winners and capable of making another bold bid nudged up 3 lb. Won at Beverley last twice and latest form has worked out really well; big player again. |
|||
6th (8)  (100/1 -614%)Bradman |
100/1(-614%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Bradman 100/1, Dual winner of middle-distance handicaps on AW in January and largely consistent in defeat thereafter. Proved too free after 3 months off at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 5 days ago but likely he'll prove vulnerable to less exposed sorts back on turf. Well below form in last two AW runs and he still has plenty to prove on turf; opposable. |
|||
7th (1)  (100/1 -1329%)Panthera |
100/1(-1329%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Panthera 100/1, Cracksman filly who, despite looking rough around the edges improved on her opening exploits granted the run of things when fourth of 13 in a Kempton maiden (11f) 23 days ago. Looks the type to make her mark in handicaps now stamina is tested further. Promising fourth at Kempton and she's open to more progress now switched to a handicap. |
|||
8th (7)  (100/1 -1567%)Spanish Vega |
100/1(-1567%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Spanish Vega 100/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 3/1, confirmed improvement shown on previous start when fourth of 10 in handicap at Pontefract (10f, good to soft) 42 days ago, aided by a good position. Greater emphasis on stamina is worth exploring here. Still lightly raced but he needs to find more and not sure this new trip will suit. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Spartan Warrior just prevailed by the smallest of margins under a penalty at Beverley in May and Ollie Sangster's gelding commands respect in his bid for a hat-trick of victories. However, a chance can be taken on MISS ALPILLES, who failed to fire on her handicap debut at Ascot when finishing down the field, but the daughter of Sea The Stars takes a step up in trip and has a first-time hood applied. With the booking of Jamie Spencer further enhancing her claims, along with a drop in grade, she looks the one to be on. Aulis is another to note after his second at Newbury.
AULIS has proved consistent in defeat behind upwardly-mobile sorts in handicaps in recent starts and, with the Ralph Beckett stable firmly amongst the winners, he could be worthy of siding with to shed the maiden tag. Spartan Warrior has improved for the application of cheekpieces and is feared in his hat-trick bid. Across Earth and handicap-debutante Panthera are others to consider.
Top of the list is the hat-trick seeker SPARTAN WARRIOR (nap), who had four subsequent winners behind him at Beverley last time.

(5)  (3/1 +50%)Shining Pearl |
3/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Shining Pearl 3/1, Iffraaj filly. Half-sister to useful winner up to 1m Mystic Pearl and 1¼m winner Clear Storm. Dam 2-y-o 6f winner. Fifth of 13 in novice (17/2) at Thirsk (6f, good) on debut 19 days ago, closing well when forced to switch final 1f. Sure to improve. Made an encouraging start at Thirsk and she's open to improvement over this longer trip. |
|||
1st (1)  (5/1 +17%)Celestial Orbit |
5/1(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Celestial Orbit 5/1, 260,000 gns yearling, No Nay Never filly. Half-sister to several winners, including very smart winner up to 16.2f Nayef Road and useful 1m winner Middle East. Dam 5f-7f winner. 8/1, seventh of 11 in maiden at Kempton (6f) on debut 30 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Should have more to offer. Ran better than the bare facts on Kempton debut and she's open to progress upped in trip. |
|||
2nd (4)  (33/1 -1367%)Renewal |
33/1(-1367%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Renewal 33/1, 210,000 gns Wootton Bassett filly. Dam, 1¼m winner, half-sister to useful winner up to 1½m Star Terms out of smart 2-y-o 5f/6f winner Best Terms. Badly in need of the experience when fourth of 11 in maiden (10/3) at Nottingham (6.1f, good) on debut 16 days ago, not knocked about. Should improve. Eyecatching fourth on Nottingham debut and she looks interesting upped in trip. |
|||
3rd (3)  (12/1 -9%)Li Ban |
12/1(-9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Li Ban 12/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 17/2, second of 7 in novice at Carlisle (6.9f, good) 25 days ago. Others have more potential. Progressive in her three runs so far and she's not ruled out for new yard. |
|||
4th (2)  (100/1 -6567%)Jewel Of London |
100/1(-6567%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Jewel Of London 100/1, 250,000 gns Lope De Vega filly. Placed in 6f maidens at Goodwood/Kempton before good fourth in Chesham stakes at Royal Ascot, albeit over 10 lengths behind the winner. Sets a decent standard back down in class. Creditable fourth of 15 in Chesham Stakes latest; big player back in much calmer waters. |
|||
5th (6)  (100/1 -900%)Tutu Star |
100/1(-900%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Tutu Star 100/1, Foaled February 25. Sea The Stars filly. Half-sister to 2 winners, notably useful 2-y-o 7f winner Spirit of Nguru. Dam, 2-y-o 6f winner who stayed 1m, half-sister to useful winner Keening. Yard 16% with 2yos this season and she needs checking in market on debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
JEWEL OF LONDON sets a lofty standard in this contest with a rating of 89 after she finished fourth in the Chesham at Royal Ascot last month. Richard Hannon's charge may only need to produce a repeat of that display in order to prove way too good for these. The main threat might be Renewal, who shaped with bundles of promise when finishing fourth on her debut at Nottingham last month and, with normal improvement, she should go well. Li Ban can fight it out for the minor honours.
JEWEL OF LONDON sets a decent standard having finished fourth in the Chesham Stakes at Royal Ascot 2 weeks ago. Shining Pearl showed plenty of ability at Thirsk and is sure to improve, so rates the main threat, though Renewal and Celestial Orbit also showed something to work on starting out.
Jewel Of London sets a good standard but preference is for RENEWAL, who showed plenty of promise on her recent Nottingham debut.

1st (10)  (28/1 -331%)Topanga |
28/1(-331%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Topanga 28/1, Lightly-raced winner but he came in last of 6 in handicap at Leicester (6f, good to soft) 39 days ago. Cheekpieces go on for the 1st time and possibilities back at 7f. Well held in both handicaps and needs to find more back up in trip; headgear added. |
|||
2nd (1)  (7/2 +22%)Aalto |
7/2(+22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Aalto 7/2, Useful in France and back to that sort of level for his current yard, fifth of 17 in handicap at York (7f, soft) 20 days ago. Holds solid form claims. Close fifth in big field at York latest and he's a key player on this drop back in grade. |
|||
3rd (8)  (40/1 -1500%)Vicario |
40/1(-1500%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Vicario 40/1, Lope De Vega filly who has progressed with each run, equipped with a tongue tie when neck second in 9-runner Newmarket maiden (7f) 78 days ago. Very much one to consider now going handicapping. Only just caught in a Newmarket maiden latest and she looks interesting on handicap debut. |
|||
4th (4)  (33/1 -136%)Tanmawwy |
33/1(-136%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Tanmawwy 33/1, Course winner but only twelfth of 14 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 18 days ago. Has work to do on that effort. All wins have been at 6f and he's struggled in his five runs this year; plenty to prove. |
|||
5th (11)  (16/1 -256%)Sea The Dream |
16/1(-256%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Sea The Dream 16/1, Made it 2-4 this year with a career best in 9-runner handicap at Catterick (7f, good to soft) 17 days ago. Up 4 lb but he's still weighted to go close. Two wins from four starts this term and he beat a progressive rival last time; respected. |
|||
6th (7)  (50/1 -79%)Orbital Chime |
50/1(-79%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Orbital Chime 50/1, Took a step forward in first-time blinkers when fourth of 11 in handicap at Chester (7f). Off 9 months since though so needs to hit the ground running on his comeback. Well held in last three runs and has something to prove after another absence; been gelded. |
|||
7th (2)  (12/1 +25%)Pjanoo |
12/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Pjanoo 12/1, Scored at Wolverhampton in April and not disgraced when tenth of 15 at Sandown (8f, good to soft) 20 days ago. Blinkers replace cheekpices and needs considering. Won on AW in April but he went up 8lb for that and has been well held back on turf since. |
|||
8th (9)  (100/1 -733%)Bay Breeze |
100/1(-733%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Bay Breeze 100/1, Yet to hit top form this term, only fifth of 7 in handicap at Ripon (6f, good) 15 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Well treated on his Ripon win (6f) last August but he's generally struggled since. |
|||
9th (3)  (100/1 -1076%)Love De Vega |
100/1(-1076%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Love De Vega 100/1, Scored at Chelmsford City in February and continues in good nick, third of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (7f) 15 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up. Two AW wins this year and placed on turf in his last two runs; each-way claims again. |
|||
10th (5)  (100/1 -525%)Master Zoffany |
100/1(-525%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Master Zoffany 100/1, Arrives out of sorts, last of 7 in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, good) 22 days ago. Lots more is required. On dangerous mark on this drop back in trip/grade but others are more persuasive. |
|||
11th (6)  (80/1 -264%)Capital Guarantee |
80/1(-264%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Capital Guarantee 80/1, A three-time 7f winner in 2023 but yet to fire this term, twelfth of 16 in handicap (28/1) at York (7f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Significantly more needed. Won his first three starts for David O'Meara but he's been disappointing since then. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Vicario certainly deserves a win, having struck the crossbar on her last three starts, and she warrants plenty of respect equipped with a first-time hood, but AALTO rates the one to beat. Ian Williams' charge has been running well in defeat at a higher level and he could prove a tough nut to crack with his sights lowered. Sea The Dream and Love De Vega are others to keep an eye on.
SEA THE DREAM remains on a workable mark despite taking a 4 lb rise for his recent Catterick success so edges the vote in this tightly-knit handicap. Vicario could emerge as the main danger now she steps into handicap company, with in-form pair Love de Vega and Aalto well in the mix too.
Aalto and Sea The Dream are respected but the vote goes to Ed Walker's handicap newcomer VICARIO.

100/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Laguna Boy 100/1, Showed a bit more than on debut but still held back by keenness when tenth of 13 in novice event (200/1) at Kempton (7f) 30 days ago. Has struggled in his two runs (6f/7f) this season and has a lot to find here. |
|||
1st (3)  (5/2 +29%)Apotheosis |
5/2(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Apotheosis 5/2, Promising sort. 28/1 and hooded, third of 13 in novice event at Kempton (7f) on debut 30 days ago, running on from an unpromising position. Will progress so he's a major player. Made a promising start when 28-1 third at Kempton (7f) last month; shortlisted. |
|||
2nd (1)  (7/2 -5%)Coppull Hall Lane |
7/2(-5%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Coppull Hall Lane 7/2, Promising start when runner-up at Redcar in May. Didn't need to improve to go one place better in 8-runner maiden at Beverley (7.4f, good to soft, 8/13) 17 days ago, well on top finish. Should have more to offer. Runner-up on debut before a comfortable win at Beverley (7.4f); respected under penalty. |
|||
3rd (8)  (9/1 -157%)Surrey Shadow |
9/1(-157%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Surrey Shadow 9/1, Promising type. Fourth of 10 in novice event at Doncaster (7f, good to firm, 18/1) 34 days ago, caught further back than ideal. May well do better so has to be taken very seriously. Two promising frame efforts over 7f at Doncaster (good/soft) this season; respected. |
|||
4th (5)  (33/1 -106%)Flight Radar |
33/1(-106%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Flight Radar 33/1, £24,000 yearling, 1,000 gns 3-y-o, James Garfield gelding. Brother to 7f winner Crefelder and half-brother to 3 winners, including 1m winner Royal Scholar and winner up to 7f Our Greta. Newcomer for top yard. Has good target to aim at on debut and market should guide. |
|||
5th (2)  (100/1 -3900%)Amsterdam |
100/1(-3900%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Amsterdam 100/1, Mid-field effort on debut proved to be strong form and well backed, he found only a stablemate too good at Salisbury. Capable of better, particularly as stamina is drawn out. Close second at Salisbury on his return and has leading claims on that improved effort. |
|||
6th (4)  (100/1 -355%)Brave Warrior |
100/1(-355%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Brave Warrior 100/1, In top hands but too green to show much when twelfth of 13 in novice event at Kempton (7f) on debut 30 days ago. Has a useful pedigree but he finished a long way behind Apotheosis on recent Kempton debut. |

7th (10)  (100/1 -1329%)Triumph Of Peace |
100/1(-1329%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Triumph Of Peace 100/1, No Nay Never filly. Dam 6f/7f winner. Highly respected on debut given yard she represents. Well-bred filly and she needs a close look in market on debut. |
|||
8th (9)  (80/1 -300%)Kokinelli |
80/1(-300%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Kokinelli 80/1, 30,000Y, €60,000 2-y-o, closely related to 2-y-o 7f winner Praxias (by Iffraaj) and half-sister to smart 2-y-o 7f/1m winner Topaze Blanche (by Zamindar), both in France, and 1¾m winner Precision (by Galileo). Dam, French 12.5f winner, closely related to smart winner up to 9f Varxi. Hooded for debut. Closely related to French 7f winner and market should reveal expectations; hood applied. |
|||
9th (7)  (100/1 -150%)Spring Festival |
100/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Spring Festival 100/1, Sent off 50/1 and too green to show full worth when eleventh of 16 in novice event at Wetherby (7f, good to soft) on debut 24 days ago. 50-1 on Wetherby debut (7f, good) last month and he was beaten 15l. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
COPPULL HALL LANE looks capable of giving weight and a beating to these rivals, having progressed from her encouraging debut second when running out a comfortable winner at Beverley. Amsterdam built on his sole outing at two when runner-up on his seasonal reappearance at Salisbury last month and he rates the biggest threat, while Apotheosis, Surrey Shadow and Triumph Of Peace add further spice to the race.
In the hope the removal of a hood doesn't backfire, APOTHEOSIS is selected to build on a most-encouraging debut third at Kempton a month ago. Surrey Shadow was noted finishing with running left at Doncaster so he has to command respect, as do Coppull Hall Lane and Amsterdam in what could be a deep novice.
Several of these are closely matched on the figures and this is a tight call but the vote goes to recent Salisbury runner-up AMSTERDAM.

(2)  (10/3 +17%)Streak Lightning |
10/3(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Streak Lightning 10/3, Fifteen runs since last win in 2023 but he has largely been in good form this year, reaching the frame again when fourth of 9 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) 19 days ago. Cheekpieces on first time. No turf win since 2021; ran up to recent best back on turf latest; first time in headgear. |

1st (3)  (5/2 -100%)Naval Academy |
5/2(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Naval Academy 5/2, Best effort for this yard when splitting a pair of 3-y-os at Pontefract (1m, good) 12 days ago. Good shout off the same mark. Running into form; useful 2nd over 1m latest; good chance back at 7f; 2lb well in. |
|||
2nd (4)  (9/1 -125%)Gentle Ellen |
9/1(-125%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Gentle Ellen 9/1, Ended last season on the up and all the sharper for his reappearance when creditable third of 11 at Leicester (6f, good) 20 days ago. All 3 wins at 6f but stays 7f; back in form at Leicester latest; big part to play. |
|||
3rd (5)  (100/1 -456%)Unsung Hero |
100/1(-456%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Unsung Hero 100/1, Last win in autumn 2022 and arrives with something to prove after 2 poor runs this year. Remains to be seen whether a first-time visor sparks a revival. Two front-running 7f wins on AW in September but has masses to prove on most recent runs. |
|||
4th (1)  (50/1 -1567%)King Of War |
50/1(-1567%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) King Of War 50/1, Good runner-up efforts on first 2 outings this year and shaped as if still in top form (met trouble) when fourth of 12 at Brighton 10 days ago. Should go well. Running well for new yard but suited by Brighton and Chepstow; more to prove elsewhere. |
|||
5th (6)  (80/1 -142%)Max Stripes |
80/1(-142%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Max Stripes 80/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 100/1, well-held fourth of 8 in maiden at Beverley (7.5f, good to soft) 17 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Plenty of improvement needed. Belated debut in April; signs of ability and now makes handicap debut; weaker races await. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Recent Pontefract runner-up Naval Academy is due to go up 2lb in the near future and he must enter calculations, while Streak Lightning and Gentle Ellen could also make their presence felt. The vote, however, goes to KING OF WAR. The son of Churchill has been running consistently well at a higher level and his class may shine through now dropped in grade.
NAVAL ACADEMY shaped quite well when clear with a pair of 3-y-os at Pontefract last time and turns out again before a 2 lb rise for that kicks in. The in-form King of War looks the obvious danger.
This can go to NAVAL ACADEMY who has improved with each run since a wind op and is 2lb well in after a useful show at Pontefract.

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.
