1st (5) (11/1 +8%) Kind Of Blue |
11/1(+8%) | (5) Kind Of Blue 11/1, Blue Point colt. Half-brother to 5f winner Bluebird. Dam unraced sister to sprinters Deacon Blues and The Tin Man, top-class and high-class respectively. Betting should help guide to expectations. Half-brother to a minor AW winner out of a well-related mare; likely best watched on debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (5/4 +62%) Not Real |
5/4(+62%) | (8) Not Real 5/4, Cost €500,000 as a 2-y-o and is a Kodiac sister to 5f-6f winner Murbih. Dam once-raced half-sister to smart winner up to 1½m Centennial out of smart 7f winner Lurina. Newcomer who needs monitoring closely in the betting. 500,000euros breeze-up purchase; starts out at a realistic level; one to be interested in. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (3/1 -20%) Pianoforte |
3/1(-20%) | (6) Pianoforte 3/1, Fairly useful form. Bit below form third of 15 in novice at Windsor (6f, good to soft) on final 2-y-o start. Makes polytrack debut. Should be thereabouts on return. Promise at two, including when second in his one AW start; sets the standard; solid claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (4/1 -78%) General Assembly |
4/1(-78%) | (3) General Assembly 4/1, Left form of his sole run in Ireland for Ger Lyons well behind when second of 11 in novice at Southwell (7f) 8 days ago. Looks up winning races for his new stable. Improved when a front-running 2nd on stable debut last week (7f); can do better; new trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (7/1 -75%) Catherine Parr |
7/1(-75%) | (7) Catherine Parr 7/1, Better effort in AW novices last autumn when second of 8 at Lingfield (6f). Off 173 days. Hooded first time on return. Won't need to raise her game too much. Promise in two Polytrack runs last autumn; bred to do better; a hood is now reached for. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (250/1 -525%) Grecian God |
250/1(-525%) | (4) Grecian God 250/1, 1,000 gns 3-y-o. Magna Grecia half-brother to 1½m winner You're So Vain. Dam, 8.3f winner, half-sister to smart 7f/1m winner Vale of Kent. Likely outsider on debut. Good pedigree but sold unraced out of Charles Hills's yard for 1,000gns in February. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (18/1 +10%) Arnaz |
18/1(+10%) | (2) Arnaz 18/1, Twice-raced maiden. 18/1, sixth of 12 in maiden at this course (7f) 14 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Looks more one for handicaps after this. Two runs in 7f maidens here haven't been without promise; one for handicaps after this. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (1) (150/1 -355%) King's Conquest |
150/1(-355%) | (1) King's Conquest 150/1, 9/1, last of 7 in novice at this course (7f) on debut 77 days ago. Hooded now. Can only watch. 9-1, remote last here (7f) on debut 11 weeks ago; bolted to post last week; now hooded. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Catherine Parr just failed in her attempt to make every yard of the running over this trip at Lingfield in October, but that was a better effort and she could progress further to have a say in a first-time hood. However, the vote goes to PIANOFORTE, who sets the standard with a rating of 83 in this contest after he showed ability in his four novice starts last season. The son of Land Force looks to have found a good opportunity to get off the mark, while any market confidence behind 500,000-euro purchase Not Real would also be interesting.
There was a lot to like about GENERAL ASSEMBLY's recent first run for George Boughey and he can build on that and get off the mark. Pianoforte is the obvious danger unless the betting vibes are strong surrounding expensive breeze-up purchase Not Real.
General Assembly and Catherine Parr can go well but PIANOFORTE may be able to make a winning reappearance.

11/1(+56%) | (6) Irrelevant 11/1, C&D winner. 28/1, fifth of 9 in handicap at this course (6f) 14 days ago. C&D winner; only fifth over 6f here a fortnight ago so he needs to get back on track. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (13) (33/1 -65%) Birkie Boy |
33/1(-65%) | (13) Birkie Boy 33/1, Winner at Brighton in October. 15/2, ninth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 61 days ago. Others more persuasive. Beat only one in 7f Wolverhampton handicap in February; others appeal more. |

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
BLENHEIM STAR still showed plenty of inexperience when not being disgraced in fourth at Chelmsford in November, as she was very keen and also suffered interference leaving the gates. The daughter of Churchill makes her return to action with Cieren Fallon booked and, off a 2lb lower mark, she gets the vote. Moe's Legacy has hit the frame in this grade over 6f the last twice and she should remain competitive now upped in trip off an unchanged rating, while Unforgettable Fire warrants a market check on her handicap bow.
MOE'S LEGACY arrives at the top of her game and looks ready to strike again. Profitman was a good third when bidding for the hat-trick at Wolverhampton on Saturday and remains of interest, while Sergeants Legacy has potential heading into handicaps.
The progressive PROFITMAN is taken to resume winning ways on the back of his excellent recent Wolverhampton third.

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (10) (11/1 -175%) Smart Hero |
11/1(-175%) | (10) Smart Hero 11/1, Shamardal colt. Half-brother to smart 1¼m/11f winner Sea The Casper. Dam unraced half-sister to smart winner up to 9f (Balanchine) Summer Romance. Of obvious interest on debut. Shamardal colt; lots to like on paper so he's an interesting debutant. |

6/1(+63%) | (8) Midnight Gun 6/1, 28/1, tenth of 13 in novice at this course (1m) on debut, never involved after missing the break. Off 154 days. Likely to improve. Hinted at promise when tenth in 1m novice here; this Kingman colt can build on it. |

11/1(-144%) | (11) Golden Myrrh 11/1, Twice-raced maiden. 11/4, shaped better than the bare result when sixth of 13 in C&D novice 21 days ago, trapped wide from a poor draw.

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||

150/1(-650%) | (9) Port Road 150/1, Quality Road colt. Dam, ran twice in US, half-sister to smart winner up to 10.3f (including US Grade 3 event) Tajaaweed. Best watched on debut unless the betting vibes are strong. Quality Road gelding; market can guide on his debut. |

80/1(-400%) | (7) King's Scholar 80/1, €52,000 Awtaad gelding. Half-brother to 1¼m-1½m winner Jellystone and 1¼m winner Classy Dame. The betting should help guide to expectations. Awtaad gelding who is a half-brother to three winners; a considered newcomer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (13) (150/1 -650%) Romantic Tale |
150/1(-650%) | (13) Romantic Tale 150/1, Twice-raced maiden. 14/1, remote fourth of 5 in maiden at Bath (1m, heavy) 10 days ago. Only 4th of five in 1m Bath maiden (heavy); in good hands though and worth another chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (1) (125/1 -279%) Beauen Arrows |
125/1(-279%) | (1) Beauen Arrows 125/1, Modest performer who has yet to win after 19 starts. Major surprise were a first success to arrive here. 0-19 and came in only eighth of 12 in 6f handicap here three weeks ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (2) (28/1 -75%) Trevanion |
28/1(-75%) | (2) Trevanion 28/1, 50/1 and hooded, fifth of 8 in maiden at this course (6f) on debut 59 days ago, not knocked about. Open to improvement. Considerately handled fifth in 6f maiden here; not ruled out with improvement on the cards. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
SIR LES PATTERSON took a pleasing step forward from his debut effort to beat Alhather (second) by just over a length over this trip at Southwell in December and he meets his reopposing rival on 7lb worse terms. Harry Eustace's three-year-old could have plenty more to offer and he can confirm his superiority to record a double. As for the latter, he failed to justify short odds over 6f here next time but isn't one to write off, while any market confidence behind Smart Hero should also be noted.
GOLDEN MYRRH has fared a lot better with the draw than on her C&D return 3 weeks ago and might be worth chancing to improve markedly on that as there was confidence behind her in the betting on that occasion. Previous winner Sir Les Patterson likely has more to come, while Alhather needs to start delivering more at the finish but has the form to be on the premises. Smart Hero has a tricky draw on debut but would still enter the reckoning if the betting suggests he's fancied.
Ralph Beckett's GOLDEN MYRRH did well to come in sixth from a wide draw over C&D and is much more favourably drawn now so gets the nod

1st (6) (17/2 +39%) Tayala |
17/2(+39%) | (6) Tayala 17/2, Lightly-raced maiden. 5/1, respectable sixth of 12 in minor event at Chelmsford City (7f). Off 158 days. Makes handicap debut. Others make more appeal. Outpaced over 7f at Chelmsford when last seen; mark for this handicap debut makes sense. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (10/1 -100%) White Mist |
10/1(-100%) | (3) White Mist 10/1, Course winner. 7/2, creditable second of 7 in handicap at this course (6f) 14 days ago, caught further back than ideal. Should give another good account. 3-6 since visor went on and not beaten far latest; needs to translate that form to 7f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (11/4 +54%) Valtellina |
11/4(+54%) | (1) Valtellina 11/4, Lightly-raced winner. Career best when winning 12-runner handicap at this C&D (66/1). Off 6 months. Stable going quite well and she's capable of better still, so one to consider. C&D 0-75 winner at 66-1 when last seen in October; 3lb rise could have been worse. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (10/3 +33%) Just Rita |
10/3(+33%) | (7) Just Rita 10/3, Lightly-raced maiden. 11/4, creditable fifth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 17 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Could have more to offer. Beaten under 2l at Southwell latest (1m); has not had the rub of the green in handicaps. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (12/1 -243%) Twilight Dancer |
12/1(-243%) | (2) Twilight Dancer 12/1, Creditable third of 9 in handicap (2/1) at Lingfield (7f, AW) 26 days ago. Should be on the premises again but others look better treated/have more potential. Lingfield third latest is up with her Polytrack best, albeit having the run of things. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (5) (7/1 -180%) Sighter |
7/1(-180%) | (5) Sighter 7/1, Lightly-raced winner. Career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Chelmsford City (7f, 7/4) 62 days ago. Type to do better still and should take the beating. 1l ahead of Rhasidat when winning at Chelmsford latest; unexposed and 3lb rise is fair. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (8/1 +60%) High Violet |
8/1(+60%) | (4) High Violet 8/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 40/1, good seventh of 12 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 19 days ago, never nearer. Needs to take another step forward. Just an okay seasonal return at Chelmsford; some encouragement for 7f+ on pedigree. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (8) (28/1 +15%) Rhasidat |
28/1(+15%) | (8) Rhasidat 28/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in January. Last of 10 in handicap at this C&D (25/1) 49 days ago. Hood on 1st time. Others preferred. C&D winner on stable debut in January; possible excuse latest; bit more needed in new hood. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
SIGHTER was sent off a warm order when scoring cosily on her handicap debut over 7f at Chelmsford in February and, nudged up just 3lb for that, the suspicion is that there is more winning to be done before the handicapper has her measure. White Mist looks ready for this step back up to 7f after staying on well to take second over 6f here earlier this month and she rates as the main danger, while Valtellina is only 3lb higher than when scoring at massive odds over C&D in October, though she needs to prove that effort was no flash in the pan.
SIGHTER was well on top at the finish when opening her account at Chelmsford last time and, with more to come, she's fancied to go in again. Valtellina is a danger if tuned up for her return and Sunblock could get back on track with cheekpieces fitted.
She may need further before long but SIGHTER (nap) is taken to make further gains at 7f for now, with Sunblock the next preferred.

1st (1) (9/1 -29%) Many A Star |
9/1(-29%) | (1) Many A Star 9/1, Narrowly capitalised on a falling mark to score for the first time since joining current yard in 9-runner handicap at Southwell (6.1f, 18/1) 6 days ago. More needed under a penalty. Successful in a Class 5 at Southwell last week; not well in under penalty but holds claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (9/4 +65%) One More Wave |
9/4(+65%) | (5) One More Wave 9/4, Winner at Wolverhampton in March. Respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f, 7/2) 34 days ago. Not taken lightly. 6f maiden win last month; solid run in Southwell handicap latest; other pace to deal with. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (6/1 -118%) Big R |
6/1(-118%) | (6) Big R 6/1, Career best when winning 8-runner handicap at this C&D (2/1) 42 days ago, well on top finish. Should go well again. Two C&D wins this year & latest has been franked by the second; may improve further. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (5/1 -25%) Grenham Bay |
5/1(-25%) | (8) Grenham Bay 5/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in March. 17/2, creditable third of 10 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f) 34 days ago. Can give a good account. Two-time C&D winner; good third at Southwell latest; should be in the thick of it again. |

5th (4) (18/1 -200%) Lady Dreamer |
18/1(-200%) | (4) Lady Dreamer 18/1, Career best when winning 11-runner handicap (10/1) at Wolverhampton (6.1f). Off 151 days/has had a wind op. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Shortlist material. Won a 6f handicap at Wolverhampton when last seen; had wind op since; new headgear. |

6th (7) (12/1 +0%) Royal Jet |
12/1(+0%) | (7) Royal Jet 12/1, Better effort 14 months apart when winning ordinary 7-runner novice at Leicester (7f, heavy, 7/2). Off 6 months. Sold from Andrew Balding 22,000 gns and gelded since last seen. Tongue strap on 1st time. Makes handicap debut. Unexposed but form of Leicester win looks modest; gelded prior to stable/handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (9/2 +36%) Beelzebub |
9/2(+36%) | (2) Beelzebub 9/2, Latest win at Newcastle in January. 9/2, fifth of 8 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, soft) 24 days ago. Others more persuasive. 7f Tapeta win in January; below par on slow turf latest; not discounted back at 6f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (50/1 -52%) Seductive Power |
50/1(-52%) | (9) Seductive Power 50/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 28/1, last of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 13 days ago. Blinkers back on. Must improve. Yet to fire for this yard and it won't be easy to dominate in this field; blinkers return. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (3) (11/1 -38%) Digital |
11/1(-38%) | (3) Digital 11/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in October. 14/1, first run since leaving K. R. Burke when bit below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f) 20 days ago. Should be sharper for recent stable debut but he's not the only pace influence on show. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (10) (28/1 -40%) Sovereign Slipper |
28/1(-40%) | (10) Sovereign Slipper 28/1, C&D winner. Seventh of 8 in handicap at Leicester (6f, heavy, 40/1). Off 11 months. Not easy to make a case for. Ended 2021 with an AW hat-trick (including C&D); rarely seen since; comes with risk. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Not an easy puzzle to solve, but the tentative nod goes to BIG R. Eve Johnson Houghton's charge scored with plenty in hand in a similar contest over C&D last month and a 6lb rise may not be enough to prevent the son of Cotai Glory bringing up the double. One More Wave is the likely pace angle into the race and he can give the selection most to think about from his handy draw, while Royal Jet was last seen winning impressively over 7f at Leicester in October and he is respected on his handicap debut.
LADY DREAMER wasted no time getting back to form when scoring at Wolverhampton in November and she remains fairly treated up 3 lb if ready to go. Big R is another who arrives on the back of a career-best win, with Grenham Bay also going through a good spell.
Big R is greatly respected but GRENHAM BAY has conditions to suit and can land a third C&D win.

11/4(+17%) | (3) Caprelo 11/4, Promising sort. Fifth of 10 in minor event (50/1) at this course (8f). Off 133 days. Significantly up in trip. Makes handicap debut. Expected to be bang there. Whiff of ability over shorter at two; should prove different proposition now handicapping. |

2nd (5) (7/4 +65%) Sir Galahad |
7/4(+65%) | (5) Sir Galahad 7/4, Thrice-raced maiden. 50/1, seventh of 11 in maiden at Chelmsford City (8f). Off 159 days/gelded. Significantly up in trip. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Potential big improver on handicap debut, so worth a market check. Potential big improver up in trip for his h'cap debut; new headgear; check the betting. |

3rd (1) (11/1 -214%) Free Speech |
11/1(-214%) | (1) Free Speech 11/1, Winner at Chelmsford City in October. 4/1, third of 4 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f) 17 days ago. Not dismissed. Progressive in nurseries; may have needed recent return from a break; not fully exposed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (22/1 -267%) Pegasus Of Harry |
22/1(-267%) | (7) Pegasus Of Harry 22/1, Winner at Wolverhampton in March. Last of 5 in handicap (7/4) at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 25 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Latest effort best excused and had been on the up previously. Hit hard for a wide-margin win at Wolverhampton (1m4f) last month; ran poorly latest. |

5th (8) (18/1 -13%) Claxton Bay |
18/1(-13%) | (8) Claxton Bay 18/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 6 in handicap (8/1) at Lingfield (10f, AW) 75 days ago. Others more persuasive. Gelded since last run but his stamina isn't assured and others are more appealing. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (12/1 +25%) Sovereign Nation |
12/1(+25%) | (6) Sovereign Nation 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 22/1, last of 7 in handicap at this course (8f) 21 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Others preferred. Well held both runs this year but this longer trip could spark improvement from him. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (4/1 +0%) Rosy Kiss |
4/1(+0%) | (4) Rosy Kiss 4/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 5/2, third of 9 in maiden at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 25 days ago. Makes handicap debut. More needed from a fairly stiff opening mark. Placed in her last two starts but improvement will be required if she's to defy this mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (14/1 -100%) Tactical Control |
14/1(-100%) | (2) Tactical Control 14/1, Fourth of 7 in nursery at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm, 9/2). Off 6 months/gelded. First run for yard after leaving Charles Hills. One to note if the market speaks in his favour. 0-6 but some promise over 1m for C Hills; sold 22,000gns & gelded since last run; new trip. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
CAPRELO displayed signs of promise in three outings over shorter as a juvenile and is bred to relish a step up in distance, being a half-brother to three-time Group 2 winner Marmelo and Vent De Force. An opening mark of 69 could potentially be lenient and this appears to be a suitable opportunity to gain a first victory. Rosy Kiss has gone close on her two most recent outings and has to be respected, while others to note are Tactical Control and Free Speech.
CAPRELO is bred to be well suited by this longer trip and, in theory, should be better than a mark of 69 based on pedigree, so he's worth taking a chance on making his seasonal/handicap debut. Sir Galahad is another one who should make a better 3-y-o and Free Speech looks the most solid of the remainder.
Sir Galahad and CAPRELO appeal as big improvers now tackling middle-distance handicaps. The latter is narrowly preferred.

1st (1) (7/1 -75%) Midnight Drive |
7/1(-75%) | (1) Midnight Drive 7/1, Took a step forward on her third start when fourth of 13 in minor event (25/1) at this course (7f) 3 weeks ago. Open to further improvement with this longer trip likely to suit on her handicap bow. Promise in three 7f runs on AW since debuting in December; more to come in handicaps. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (5/1 +38%) Baroque Buoy |
5/1(+38%) | (3) Baroque Buoy 5/1, Hasn't made much impact in a trio of starts so far, last of 7 in minor event (150/1) at this course (6f) 3 weeks ago. Has something to find as he goes up in distance for his handicap debut. Second run offered hope of much better; steps up in trip for handicap debut; yard in form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (11) (16/1 +36%) Charles Morin |
16/1(+36%) | (11) Charles Morin 16/1, After 5 months off, never involved on first run since leaving H-F. Devin when ninth of 13 in minor event at this course (7f, 125/1) 3 weeks ago. Return to this longer trip should suit, but has work to do sent handicapping. Long way behind Midnight Drive here (7f) on stable/British debut last month; risk involved. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (15/2 +46%) Teddy Brown |
15/2(+46%) | (7) Teddy Brown 15/2, Never a threat in his 3 qualifying runs, third of 4 in minor event at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 22/1) 54 days ago (gelded since). Blinkers now the choice of headgear as he makes his first start in a handicap. Modest form in his three runs this winter; been gelded & tries new headgear; others safer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (9) (25/1 -56%) Newfangled |
25/1(-56%) | (9) Newfangled 25/1, Fared no better switched to a nursery when last of 11 at this course (7f, 17/2) in September. Has been gelded ahead of his return from 7 months off. Didn't live up to market position on handicap debut here in September (7f); gelded since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (12) (18/1 +10%) Dire Wolf |
18/1(+10%) | (12) Dire Wolf 18/1, Gained her first success at Lingfield in January. However, below that level on her last 2 starts, running no sort of race when last of 4 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 33/1) 13 days ago. 1m2f win on Polytrack in January; lacklustre run at Lingfield 13 days ago; needs a revival. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (5) (15/2 -50%) Simple Endeavour |
15/2(-50%) | (5) Simple Endeavour 15/2, After 6 months off, not seen to best effect when fifth of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW, 10/3) 13 days ago, left poorly placed. Remains with potential making only her second start in a handicap. Only 5th of 6 on recent h'cap debut; can do better and this is weaker; not yet exposed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (10) (11/4 +73%) Beach Point |
11/4(+73%) | (10) Beach Point 11/4, Showed more than previously when sixth of 9 in nursery (11/2) at Chelmsford City (8f) in November, never nearer. Needs to find more again on his reappearance. Beaten just over 3l on his handicap debut at Chelmsford in November; not yet fully exposed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (6) (33/1 -267%) Mleiha |
33/1(-267%) | (6) Mleiha 33/1, Has looked in need of the experience on her first 3 outings, well-beaten fifth of 10 in maiden at Lingfield (7f, AW, 80/1) 12 days ago. Yard has been going well with their handicap newcomers. Yet to build on her debut effort and could prove vulnerable switched to handicap company. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (2) (6/1 -33%) Eccentric |
6/1(-33%) | (2) Eccentric 6/1, Had shown improved form on his penultimate start and built on that effort to get off the mark in 9-runner handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 4/1) 17 days ago. Merits consideration with cheekpieces now added. Off the mark at tenth attempt when winning at Southwell last month; up 4lb; headgear now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (8) (22/1 -450%) Bitcoin Profit |
22/1(-450%) | (8) Bitcoin Profit 22/1, Confirmed the promise of his stable debut when opening his account in 8-runner handicap (4/1) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 15 days ago. Remains unexposed at this trip and he's a major player. Game effort upped to 8.6f at Wolverhampton 2 weeks ago; 2lb rise fair; can do better at 1m. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
BITCOIN PROFIT benefited from stepping up in trip when getting off the mark over the extended mile at Wolverhampton earlier this month and Max Young's gelding is expected to have more to offer following that success. Eccentric shed the maiden tag at Southwell last time and is likely to enter the reckoning with first-time cheekpieces applied. Midnight Drive and Simple Endeavour appeal most of the remainder.
Upped in trip, BITCOIN PROFIT showed improved form on his second start for his current yard when winning at Wolverhampton 15 days ago and he can score again now that he's up and running. He is taken to get the better of Eccentric, who also recorded a first victory on his latest outing, with Simple Endeavour completing the shortlist.
Midnight Drive is high on the list but BAROQUE BUOY could leave his previous efforts well behind now upped to 1m and handicapping.

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.
