1st (2)  (9/2 +10%)Western Stars |
9/2(+10%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Western Stars 9/2, Lost his way somewhat for Ed Dunlop but stepped up on his stable debut from a tumbling mark when a close third at Epsom (12f, good to firm) just over a fortnight ago. Mark remains unchanged and he's not without hope. Second in a soft-ground seller before finishing close up in an Epsom handicap. |
|||
2nd (4)  (7/2 -115%)Barney's Angel |
7/2(-115%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Barney's Angel 7/2, Landed a bit of a touch as he got off the mark at Windsor (10f, good to firm) earlier this month. Nudged up 3 lb for that success and with the hood reapplied, he's fancied to be in the shake-up. Only 3lb higher than at Windsor but softer ground is a cause for concern. |
|||
3rd (6)  (7/4 +68%)Kells |
7/4(+68%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Kells 7/4, Took advantage of a much-reduced mark to belatedly get off the mark in impressive fashion at Thirsk (12f) 11 days ago. Below form after just 6 days off when mid-field at Hamilton subsequently, and he has to carry a penalty on this occasion. Thirsk win looks a bit too good to be true after failing to back it up at Hamilton. |
|||
4th (3)  (7/2 -17%)Fascinating Lips |
7/2(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Fascinating Lips 7/2, Dual winner in 2022 but yet to cut much ice in a handful of starts this term. However, his latest effort represented a step back in the right direction and having dropped to his last winning mark, he's one to take seriously with first-time headgear applied. Should be getting competitive off this sort of mark and latest effort was respectable. |
|||
5th (1)  (5/1 +29%)Dogged |
5/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Dogged 5/1, Has enjoyed a fruitful campaign winning 4 times, the latest success at Ripon last month. Produced what must be considered a rare below-par effort at this course (11.6f, good to firm) just over 3 weeks ago, so he must bounce back quickly. Poor here last time but had been in form and remains on a fair mark; ground fine. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Barney's Angel got off the mark in good style on fast ground over this trip at Windsor and looks capable of defying a 3lb rise, although the forecast softer surface is a concern and preference is for WESTERN STARS. Jim Boyle's four-year-old ran a big race from the front when a close-up third off this rating over 1m4f at Epsom last time and must be considered now dropped back in trip off the same mark. Kells carries a 5lb penalty for his victory at Thirsk 11 days ago, but won by a wide margin there and ran well enough in defeat at Hamilton on Sunday.
BARNEY'S ANGEL landed a few decent bets when opening his account at Windsor last month and nudged up just 3 lb he's fancied to be bang there once again with a hood reapplied. Fascinating Lips has dropped down to his last winning mark so he could be the one to give the selection most to think about, with Mistress Light rounding off the shortlist.
Preference is for FASCINATING LIPS, who might be about to find some form on just his fourth run of the year.

1st (8)  (85/40 +39%)Stop The Cavalry |
85/40(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Stop The Cavalry 85/40, 200,000 gns Lope De Vega filly. Dam winner up to 10.5f (2-y-o 1m winner). Yard continues in good form and she's a likely type first time up. | |||
2nd (4)  (6/1 +63%)Lordsbridge Flyer |
6/1(+63%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Lordsbridge Flyer 6/1, Havana Grey filly. Dam, 2-y-o 6f winner, closely related to useful winner up to 7f Lucymai. Would enter the reckoning if the betting suggests she's fancied. | |||
3rd (2)  (9/2 -29%)Dramatic Effect |
9/2(-29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Dramatic Effect 9/2, Has run twice over 6f at Newbury in recent months, stepping up on her debut when third of 11 6 weeks ago. A prominent showing is likely. | |||
4th (1)  (15/2 -173%)Dark Sun |
15/2(-173%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Dark Sun 15/2, Dark Angel filly. Dam, 1m winner, half-sister to smart winner up to 1m Havana Gold, won Prix Jean Prat. Leading stable won this with a newcomer in 2020. Market confidence would look significant. | |||
5th (5)  (3/1 +25%)Marie Ellen |
3/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Marie Ellen 3/1, Second on her 6f Leicester debut (soft) at the start of August and actually achieved a bit more when fifth of 11 over 7f at Doncaster since, leading until over 1f out. The drop back to 6f may help. | |||
6th (6)  (12/1 +14%)Sharrow Gray |
12/1(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Sharrow Gray 12/1, Havana Grey filly. Half-sister to 2-y-o 5f winner Instinctive Move, later successful at 6f abroad, and winner up to 7f Zoology, both useful. Dam 7f/1m winner. A newcomer to note in the betting. | |||
7th (3)  (22/1 +12%)Estelle |
22/1(+12%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Estelle 22/1, €45,000 Starspangledbanner filly. Half-sister to winner up to 7f The Feathered Nest. Dam maiden (stayed 2m). Betting should help guide to expectations with this newcomer. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Following a promising debut second, MARIE ELLEN was very keen from the front before weakening late on over 7f at Doncaster and she gets the nod with the return to 6f likely to suit. Conversely, Dramatic Effect was doing her best work at the finish when making the frame over this trip at Newbury and may be in need of an extra furlong, but she remains of serious interest in this company. William Haggas won this race in 2020 and his Dark Sun, who is out of a well-related Listed-placed mare, must be considered on debut, while Stop The Cavalry cost 200,000gns and is another newcomer to note.
The good form of the Ralph Beckett yard shows no sign of stopping and STOP THE CAVALRY gets the nod to make a winning debut, with confidence in her chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. Dark Sun is another newcomer who makes obvious paper appeal, while Marie Ellen and Dramatic Effect have shown a fair level of ability in their 2 starts and should also be in the shake-up.
The standard is set by DRAMATIC EFFECT who was under 3l away at Newbury behind a filly who has since run well in a Group 3.

1st (6)  (3/1 +33%)Global Skies |
3/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Global Skies 3/1, 40,000 gns Breeze-Up purchase who has displayed a fair level of ability in 7f maidens at Newmarket and Yarmouth. Ought to pick up a race at some point but this drop to 6f is of dubious benefit. Fourth in a good Newmarket maiden before finishing closer at Yarmouth; turn looks near. |
|||
2nd (2)  (2.5/1 -11%)Avoriaz |
2.5/1(-11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Avoriaz 2.5/1, Started to get the hang of things late on when fourth on debut at Salisbury and duly improved when runner-up in a Ffos Las maiden (6f, heavy) earlier this month. Reproduction of that effort would give him every chance. Big improvement when going close at Ffos Las and can take a further step forward. |
|||
3rd (5)  (3/1 -9%)Fusterlandia |
3/1(-9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Fusterlandia 3/1, Runner-up on 3 of his 4 starts for Richard Hannon and creditable efforts switched to nurseries for new yard the last twice, latterly third of 5 upped to 7f on heavy ground at Newbury. Drop back in trip here looks a good move and should be in the mix if the first-time visor has the desired effect. Didn't quite see out the 7f on soft ground in a Newbury nursery last week but ran well. |
|||
4th (1)  (7/1 -27%)Appellant |
7/1(-27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Appellant 7/1, Positive start to his career when runner-up at Ayr in July but that form hasn't worked out particularly well and he's failed to build on it in 2 subsequent starts. Hopes pinned on the addition of cheekpieces sparking some improvement here. Sticks to maidens with connections declining the opportunity to go handicapping off 78. |
|||
5th (4)  (50/1 -100%)Dark Dreamer |
50/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Dark Dreamer 50/1, Just minor promise in a Goodwood maiden and Yarmouth novice (both at 6f) so far, and it's likely that he will need more time and distance. Down the field in both his runs and one formline suggests he has plenty to find. |
|||
6th (8)  (12/1 +0%)Land Lover |
12/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Land Lover 12/1, Best effort when finding just one too good at Carlisle in June but has failed to build on that in 3 subsequent starts. Will need to improve for the fitting of cheekpieces if he's to get off the mark here. While some of his form reads well, he's not progressing. |
|||
7th (7)  (50/1 -100%)King Street |
50/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) King Street 50/1, Foaled March 13. Price rose to 78,000 gns as a yearling but fetched just 6,500 gns when resold this year. Probably best watched on debut unless the market suggests otherwise. Value dropped from 78,000gns as a yearling to 6,500gns at two; best watched. |
|||
8th (3)  (17/2 +39%)Bury Lane |
17/2(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Bury Lane 17/2, Showed a bit more than he did on debut when fifth in an 11-runner Newcastle novice (6f) 3 weeks ago but appeals as the type who will come into his own when venturing down the handicap route. Finished closer at Newcastle (6f, AW) but has something to find with Appellant. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Fusterlandia sets the standard with some good efforts in better company than this, but he has had a few chances now and could be worth taking on with AVORIAZ. Andrew Balding's colt left his debut well behind when staying on for a close second after a poor start in a similar event at Ffos Las (fifth has won since) and further progress is expected. Global Skies was keen enough when third over 7f at Yarmouth last week and this drop in trip could see him in a better light.
In all probability, AVORIAZ will not need to improve on what he showed when second at Ffos Las at the beginning of the month in order to go one better here. It will look significant if support arrives for likely-looking newcomer Moswaat and he is feared most ahead of Fusterlandia.
Provided he takes to the visor then FUSTERLANDIA should be bang there. He didn't see out 7f on soft last week at Newbury.

1st (5)  (3/1 +25%)Curious Rover |
3/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Curious Rover 3/1, Placed on first 2 outings and found a bit more improvement when making all in Catterick maiden in August. Ran at least as well when second in minor event at Hamilton (5f, good to firm) earlier this month and he can give another good account. Speedy colt; return to a flatter track will help him but soft ground is an unknown. |
|||
2nd (4)  (10/3 -33%)Hedge Fund |
10/3(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Hedge Fund 10/3, In need of the experience on his first 3 runs but has shown improved form sent handicapping, making it 2 from 2 in nurseries when making all at Ffos Las (5f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Can make a bold bid for the hat-trick. All speed and won his last two from the front (6f/5f); soft ground is a grey area. |
|||
3rd (2)  (11/2 +8%)Say Hello |
11/2(+8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Say Hello 11/2, Much improved in first-time blinkers when easily landing 6f Newmarket nursery in July and creditable second at the same C&D (soft) next time. Below form at Goodwood on her latest outing, but could bounce back returned to 5f for the first time since debut. Initially did well in blinkers; dangerous if reacting positively to more new headgear. |
|||
4th (3)  (5/4 +38%)Due For Luck |
5/4(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Due For Luck 5/4, Looked a useful prospect when winning his first 2 starts, again impressing with how he travelled when scoring at Ripon in August. Denied a clear run when second on nursery debut at Chester (5.1f, soft) 13 days ago, so he can make amends this time around. Unlucky not to bring up the hat-trick on his nursery debut at Chester. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
HALA EMARAATY has been highly tried since registering back-to-back victories at the beginning of his career and sets the standard. A respectable fifth in the Sirenia Stakes at Kempton, this represents a significant drop in class for the son of Kodiac, who may well be up to giving weight away all round. Due For Luck is feared most, despite a surprise defeat at Chester, while the hat-trick chasing Hedge Fund is another serious contender.
DUE FOR LUCK might have won with a clearer run at Chester on his nursery debut last time, only just denied having had to wait for a gap on the home turn, so he is taken to quickly resume winning ways. Hedge Fund is feared most as he bids for the hat-trick, while Curious Rover can also make his presence felt.
This will be run at a fast pace and DUE FOR LUCK can pounce late to make amends for his unfortunate defeat at Chester.

1st (5)  (3/1 +0%)Urban Outlook |
3/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Urban Outlook 3/1, Progressive gelding who relished the step up in distance when doubling his tally in handicap at Chester 13 days ago. Open to further improvement and makes plenty of appeal. Only 2lb higher than at Chester (won narrowly) and this company is more challenging. |
|||
2nd (1)  (3/1 -71%)Circuit Breaker |
3/1(-71%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Circuit Breaker 3/1, Successful at Windsor in May and resumed progress stepped up to 2m at Kempton last time, well on top at the finish. Likely to improve further despite the drop back in distance. Well on top at Kempton; 4lb rise fine and he's shown a liking for these conditions. |
|||
3rd (2)  (5/1 -25%)Flower Of Dubai |
5/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Flower Of Dubai 5/1, Has improved since switched to handicaps, following narrow Wolverhampton success with creditable efforts on all 4 subsequent starts, third at Doncaster last time. Others look better treated. Seemed to find 1m4f too sharp when third in a valuable soft-ground handicap at Doncaster. |
|||
4th (3)  (10/3 +63%)Maxident |
10/3(+63%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Maxident 10/3, Won at Leicester by a huge margin in April. Unable to improve on quicker ground since and mark looks to overestimate him. Won by 50l on heavy-ground debut and not disgraced since on faster; handicap debut. |
|||
5th (4)  (9/2 +10%)Miller Spirit |
9/2(+10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Miller Spirit 9/2, Not fully exposed and found marked improvement in first-time cheekpieces when scoring at Sandown last time. Penalised/upped markedly in trip (should stay), but merits respect. Penalised for 2l win over 1m2f at Sandown; has a further 4f to travel this time. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
This is within range for CIRCUIT BREAKER, who made triumphant return from a short break with a dominant effort over 2m at Kempton. Put up just 4lb for that comfortable success, the son of Nathaniel is open to any amount of progress in staying handicaps, but this slightly shorter trip can help to counter the relatively quick reappearance. Recent Sandown winner Miller Spirit is respected but has more to do under a 6lb penalty, especially with an additional four furlongs to tackle, so Flower Of Dubai is suggested as more of a threat with her stamina proven.
URBAN OUTLOOK was well suited by the step up to this distance when scoring at Chester and, with the scope for better still, he's marginally preferred to fellow last-time-out winners Circuit Breaker and Miller Spirit in what looks a strong race for the numbers.
The well-bred CIRCUIT BREAKER (nap) smacked of a stayer with more to offer when winning comfortably at Kempton.

1st (1)  (3/1 -20%)Billy No Mates |
3/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Billy No Mates 3/1, C&D winner who arrives on the back of a good second of 10 in handicap at Thirsk (12f, heavy) 55 days ago. Has won off a break so he's a player off the same mark. His latest Thirsk conqueror (1m4f) was at the top of his game back then. |
|||
2nd (7)  (10/3 +39%)Zillion |
10/3(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Zillion 10/3, Is in his best form for years, scoring at Chepstow and Bath before a very good second back at Bath (14f) 13 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up once more nudged up 1 lb. Came from last turning in to go close in a 1m6f Class 2 handicap at Bath recently. |
|||
3rd (2)  (13/2 -8%)Black Kalanisi |
13/2(-8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Black Kalanisi 13/2, Fair 2m winner for Fergal O'Brien in 2022. Only twice raced for his current yard and cheekpieces on when creditable second of seven in 2m Ffos Las handicap 35 days ago. In the mix. Second run for this yard when chasing home a Prescott improver at Ffos Las. |
|||
4th (6)  (5/1 +29%)Daaris |
5/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Daaris 5/1, In excellent form since the blinkers went on, shedding his maiden tag at Nottingham (14f) and a solid third of 10 at Catterick 30 days ago. Considered. 133 in blinkers; has been contesting Class 6s so this should be tougher. |
|||
5th (3)  (25/1 -56%)Caldwell |
25/1(-56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Caldwell 25/1, Hurdles winner who opened his account on the Flat at Kempton (2m) last spring for Michael Scudamore. Yet to fire in two runs for his current yard though, coming in last of eight over C&D 21 days ago. Has it to prove. His two runs for this yard in staying handicaps have not been that encouraging. |
|||
6th (4)  (15/2 -7%)V Twelve |
15/2(-7%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) V Twelve 15/2, A fair winner for Ed Walker in 2022 but he arrives below par, only fifth at Newmarket (1m2f) in July. Handily weighted though if his yard switch sparks a resurgence. A winner for Ed Walker and also tried hurdling; below par when last seen 90 days ago. |
|||
7th (5)  (4/1 +0%)Lucky's Dream |
4/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Lucky's Dream 4/1, It's now thirteen runs since his last win in 2021 but he posted a creditable fourth of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (12.4f) 29 days ago. Can give another good account. In fair form but there's nothing in his profile to suggest he wants soft ground. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Soft ground will make sure this is a proper stamina test, and ZILLION is expected to relish it. The nine-year-old has won four races, with two of those over further and one on soft ground, and arrives after coming home second in a class 2 handicap at Bath. He races from bottom weight, even before taking into account Mia Nicholls' 7lb claim, and may have the edge on dual C&D winner Billy No Mates, while Lucky's Dream is another to consider for a stable in good form.
A case can be made for a few of these but BILLY NO MATES can boast a C&D success and has gone well fresh too so he edges the vote from Zillion, who arrives at the top of his game and is greatly feared. Daaris and V Twelve also need considering in a tight-knit handicap.
With conditions fine and heading here on the back of an excellent effort at Bath where he was last turning in, ZILLION appeals most.

1st (8)  (11/2 -57%)Beccara Rose |
11/2(-57%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Beccara Rose 11/2, Sea The Stars filly who didn't need to improve to get off the mark in 9-runner maiden at Kempton (1m) 3 weeks ago, staying on to lead well inside final 1f. The runner-up has franked that form since and she makes appeal back in handicap company. Good runs in handicaps before winning a maiden on the AW; should give her running. |
|||
2nd (2)  (12/1 -41%)Rhythm N Rock |
12/1(-41%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Rhythm N Rock 12/1, Dual winner who hasn't stood much racing but posted one of better races despite being forced to come from a less-than-ideal position when runner-up at Kempton (1m) in July. Not in same form in a warmish race there 2 months later but entitled to come on for the run and is proven on testing ground. Conditions will be no excuse but he's not proving the easiest to predict. |
|||
3rd (1)  (13/2 +0%)Liamarty Dreams |
13/2(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Liamarty Dreams 13/2, Made all at Musselburgh in June and has remained in good form since, running up to his best when fifth of 12 in 7.6f handicap at Chester 27 days ago. Likeable front-runner but an 8lb higher mark than for his last win is looking troublesome. |
|||
4th (3)  (4/1 +27%)Shahbaz |
4/1(+27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Shahbaz 4/1, Found some improvement to get off the mark in a soft ground nursery at Newmarket on final outing last term. Yet to strike this season but went close at Yarmouth on penultimate start and then found the steady gallop against him back up in trip at Chepstow last time. Remains of interest. Solid efforts in defeat this season but does look high in the weights. |
|||
5th (7)  (5/2 +38%)Pearl Eye |
5/2(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Pearl Eye 5/2, Proved better than ever when landing his fourth race of the summer here earlier in the month and ran at least as well in defeat under a 6 lb penalty at Chester 6 days later. Can give another good account back down in trip. High in the weights but returns to best trip and should be in the thick of it. |
|||

7th (5)  (5/1 +44%)Harswell Duke |
5/1(+44%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Harswell Duke 5/1, Showed benefit of reappearance run when landing 22-runner Spring Mile at Doncaster in April. Excuses at Newmarket next time but has returned from a mid-season break below form. Struggled since winning at Doncaster in the spring. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Young Fire drops a class after finishing fifth at Nottingham on Tuesday and although he was beaten close to five lengths at the line, as a four-time course winner he warrants plenty of respect. PEARL EYE is five years his junior, though, and has already won three times over C&D on varying ground. He was a solid second at Chester recently and could get back to winning ways. Beccara Rose and Conservationist complete the shortlist.
SHAHBAZ and Beccara Rose both look interesting runners for Charlie Fellowes. The latter beat a subsequent winner on her most recent outing at Kempton and is still relatively unexposed, but the former is very much at home when the mud is flying and is taken to gain reward for some creditable efforts this season. Pearl Eye arrives at the top of his game and completes the shortlist.
The runners in form look high in the weights but something has to win and it was good to see BECCARA ROSE win her maiden.

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.
