---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (6) (7.5/1 +38%) Sandy Paradise |
7.5/1(+38%) | (6) Sandy Paradise 7.5/1, Course winner. Latest win here in January. Below form seventh of 12 in handicap at Newbury (8f, good to firm, 11/1) 19 days ago. Not taken lightly on runner-up at this venue efforts prior to that. Disappointed on turf latest but no surprise if he goes close again back at this track.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (9) (14/1 -40%) Airshow |
14/1(-40%) | (9) Airshow 14/1, Course winner. Latest win at Southwell in March. Creditable third of 10 in handicap at Newmarket (6f, good, 9/2) 19 days ago, despite hanging under pressure. Cheekpieces back on. Looks competitive on form. Inconsistent but respected on his better recent efforts from this mark and a handy draw.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (12) (3.33/1 +45%) With Respect |
3.33/1(+45%) | (12) With Respect 3.33/1, Latest win at Southwell in February. Bit below form fourth of 10 in handicap (22/1) at this C&D 14 days ago, slowly away. Can give a good account. 6f AW and 6.5f turf winner; weakened on his latest start, over C&D; each-way player.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (10) (8/1 +11%) Rich Rhythm |
8/1(+11%) | (10) Rich Rhythm 8/1, Respectable fifth of 11 in handicap at Chepstow (6.1f, good to firm, 9/1) 22 days ago, missing break but sticking to his task. Well worth another go at 7f and he's interesting. Slipping to a mark from which he may be more effective, especially now back up in trip.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (9/1 -6%) Calonne |
9/1(-6%) | (7) Calonne 9/1, Latest win at Lingfield in December. Respectable fifth of 12 in handicap (16/1) at this course (8f) 35 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and top apprentice booked. Needs to raise the bar on what he produced here last time but still an each-way possible.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (4/1 -33%) Ibn Aldar |
4/1(-33%) | (1) Ibn Aldar 4/1, 4/1, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 29 days ago, helped by being held up in strongly-run race. That was an excellent training performance having been off 19 months and there should be more to come back over 7f. Open to further progress now going back up in trip (has won over 7f); big player.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (3.33/1 +58%) My Mate Ted |
3.33/1(+58%) | (4) My Mate Ted 3.33/1, Course winner. Cheekpieces on for first time, creditable sixth of 12 in handicap (16/1) at Lingfield (7f, AW) 25 days ago. That was a shade more encouraging and he's now below his last winning mark. Last two runs hint he may need assistance from the handicapper; interesting if supported.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (28/1 -75%) Dynamic Talent |
28/1(-75%) | (2) Dynamic Talent 28/1, C&D winner. Last of 10 in handicap (12/1) at Newmarket (6f, good) 19 days ago. Step back up in trip will suit but others still more persuasive. Handy mark after some below-par efforts but dangerous to write him off.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (14) (33/1 -32%) Sisters In The Sky |
33/1(-32%) | (14) Sisters In The Sky 33/1, C&D winner. 50/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Bath (8f, firm) 12 days ago. Some way below level of C&D win in four starts since joining this trainer; revival needed.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (5) (33/1 -83%) Profit Given |
33/1(-83%) | (5) Profit Given 33/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Fourth of 12 in novice event at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 11/1) 15 days ago. Makes handicap debut and mark demands more. Initial mark suggests she'll need improvement to get competitive on handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (3) (80/1 -220%) Impeach |
80/1(-220%) | (3) Impeach 80/1, 16/1, last of 6 in handicap at Pontefract (5f, good) 12 days ago, missing break. Significantly up in trip. Blinkers/tongue strap back on. Others more persuasive, with tardy starts becoming an increasing concern. Disappointing latest but a player if back in the form of his two AW starts preceding that.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (13) (20/1 -43%) Broxi |
20/1(-43%) | (13) Broxi 20/1, 3/1, respectable third of 7 in handicap at Yarmouth (7f, good) 36 days ago. Visor the headgear of choice this time and he's on his last winning mark. Acts around here; visor replaces blinkers (won in first-time blinkers); could have a say.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
IBN ALDAR should not be inconvenienced by stepping back up to 7f as he looks to follow up his most recent victory at Lingfield having returned from a break. Charlie Hills' charge gets the vote ahead of Wolverhampton runner-up Ikkari and With Respect, who ran with credit when fourth over C&D last time out. Handicap debutant Profit Given is another to note.
RICH RHYTHM made up plenty of ground having blown the start over 6f at Chepstow 3 weeks ago and there was enough promise in that effort to recommend him this time back over 7f. There's plenty of depth to this, though, with Ibn Aldar and Calonne a couple of potential threats.
The impression left by IBN ALDAR last time suggests there will be more to come from him now back up in trip and he gets the vote.

1st (3) (1.5/1 +33%) Hellfire Bay |
1.5/1(+33%) | (3) Hellfire Bay 1.5/1, Promise effort amidst clear greenness when third of 7 in maiden at Goodwood (6f, good to firm, 11/2) on debut 11 days ago, not knocked about. Open to plenty of improvement. Promising third at Goodwood and she should know much more this time; big player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (4.5/1 +0%) Kinako Mochi |
4.5/1(+0%) | (4) Kinako Mochi 4.5/1, Foaled January 14. 350,000 gns yearling, Siyouni filly. Half-sister to 11f winner Cowboy. Dam 1m winner (including at 2 yrs). Noteworthy newcomer for powerful connections. Cost 350,000gns as a yearling and she needs watching in market on debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (16/1 +20%) Rating |
16/1(+20%) | (7) Rating 16/1, Shaped as though better for the run when sixth of 10 in minor event at Newmarket (6f, good, 9/1) on debut 18 days ago. Capable of better. Showed some promise when sixth at Newmarket 18 days ago but was behind Oops in that race. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (4.5/1 +36%) Whoop Whoop |
4.5/1(+36%) | (8) Whoop Whoop 4.5/1, In need of the experience when fourth of 6 in novice event at Salisbury (5f, good to firm) on debut 20 days ago, not knocked about but the penny was dropping late. More to come. Ran green at Salisbury and she's a likely improver upped in trip on her second start. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (25/1 -14%) Delicacy |
25/1(-14%) | (2) Delicacy 25/1, Foaled April 28. €25,000 foal, €14,000 yearling, £58,000 2-y-o, Saxon Warrior filly. Half-sister to 5f winner Victors Lady. Dam unraced half-sister to very smart winner up to 6f Inxile. £58,000 half-sister to a 5f AW winner; market should guide on debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (10) (33/1 -83%) Works Of Art |
33/1(-83%) | (10) Works Of Art 33/1, Foaled February 14. Zoffany filly. Half-sister to smart winner up to 7f Tactical. Dam 2-y-o 6f winner (stayed 7f). Makes plenty of appeal on paper. Plenty to like on paper and she's an interesting newcomer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (100/1 -100%) Woodhay Wonder |
100/1(-100%) | (9) Woodhay Wonder 100/1, Foaled April 7. 26,000 gns yearling, Tamayuz filly. Half-sister to winner up to 1m Nuvolari. Dam 7f-8.6f winner out of US Grade 2 11f winner Sauvage. This looks a tough starting point and she's probably a longer-term prospect. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (1) (8/1 -60%) Dazzling Star |
8/1(-60%) | (1) Dazzling Star 8/1, Foaled March 7. Blue Point filly. Half-sister to 2-y-o 7f winner Wakening and smart winner up to 1m Bold Act. Dam 1m winner. Obvious claims on paper for powerful connections. Well-bred filly and she's an interesting newcomer for top yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (6) (8.5/1 -113%) Oops |
8.5/1(-113%) | (6) Oops 8.5/1, Greenness evident when fourth of 10 in novice event at Newmarket (6f, good) on debut 18 days ago. Will know a lot more this time. Eyecatching fourth at Newmarket on debut and she's a key player on that form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (5) (14/1 +13%) Mirroring |
14/1(+13%) | (5) Mirroring 14/1, Offered plenty to work on when third of 12 in maiden at Yarmouth (5.2f, good to firm, 12/1) on debut 14 days ago. Should improve, particularly over 6f. Encouraging third at Yarmouth but was beaten 5l and she needs improvement upped in trip. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
A promising third on her debut at Goodwood when keeping on well, HELLFIRE BAY must hold every chance for her in-form connections as she makes the switch to the all-weather. Oops wasn't beaten far either at Newmarket and she must enter calculations, along with Whoop Whoop. A half-sister to recent London Gold Cup second Bold Act, Dazzling Star is an intriguing newcomer for strong connections, while the same can be said of the Siyouni filly Kinako Mochi.
A bunch to be positive about with HELLFIRE BAY expected to take a leap forward having displayed plenty of ability amidst obvious greenness starting out at Goodwood 11 days ago. Dazzling Star and Kinako Mochi are well-bred newcomers for powerful connections so demand respect, particularly if the market vibes are positive.
An interesting race in which the Gosdens' HELLFIRE BAY gets the vote ahead of Oops and Godolphin's newcomer Dazzling Star.

1st (9) (2/1 +20%) Merlin The Wizard |
2/1(+20%) | (9) Merlin The Wizard 2/1, Camelot gelding who showed plenty of ability when second of 13 in C&D novice on debut in December, clear of the rest, and made encouraging return when fifth in a strong Newmarket novice. Sets a good standard. Fair fifth in a hot 1m Newmarket novice on his return; respected back in calmer waters. |

2nd (3) (9/1 -100%) Botanical |
9/1(-100%) | (3) Botanical 9/1, 260,000 gns yearling, Lope De Vega gelding. Dam, 1¼m-1¾m winner, half-sister to smart 1¼m-13f winner Sea The Lion from excellent family of Irish 1000 Guineas winner Halfway To Heaven. Cost 260,000gns as a yearling and he's an interesting newcomer for in-form yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (12) (3.5/1 +89%) Tango Man |
3.5/1(+89%) | (12) Tango Man 3.5/1, 110,000 gns yearling, £496,000 2-y-o, Kingman colt. Half-brother to several winners, including smart 1m-13.3f winner Agent Murphy. Ninth of 10 in maiden (11/4) at Catterick (7f, good to soft) on debut. Off 10 months. First run for yard after leaving David Loughnane. Tongue strap on for 1st time.

7.5/1(-25%) | (10) Oliver Show 7.5/1, 160,000 gns half-brother to several winners, including winner up to 7f Loch Lein and winner up to 6f Full Authority, both useful. Better effort 7 months apart when fourth of 11 in novice at Newbury (7f, good) 19 days ago, though didn't look straightforward. Promising fourth at Newbury last month and he should continue to improve with experience. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (14/1 -40%) Endless Power |
14/1(-40%) | (5) Endless Power 14/1, Fastnet Rock colt. Dam unraced half-sister to Oaks winner Qualify out of useful 12.7f winner (should have stayed 2m) Perihelion. Out of a half-sister to Oaks winner Qualify and he needs watching in market on debut. |

Dam, 7f winner, closely related to smart 5f-7f winner Rebellion. 14/1, sixth of 15 in maiden at Doncaster (7f, heavy) on debut 40 days ago. Likely to improve.

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (5/1 -50%) Mindthegap |
5/1(-50%) | (1) Mindthegap 5/1, Confirmed debut promise to win 11-runner novice at Chelmsford City (6f), forging clear. Off 7 months. That form has worked out very well so he may well do better again. 4l win at Chelmsford (6f) in November and he's a big player again under penalty on return. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (22/1 -57%) Akkadian Thunder |
22/1(-57%) | (2) Akkadian Thunder 22/1, 125,000 gns foal, £110,000 2-y-o, Night of Thunder gelding. Dam, French 1½m winner, half-sister to smart 1m-1¼m winner Extremis out of Prix Saint-Alary winner Fidelite. £110,000 2yo; yard also runs Botanical and market should be useful. |

Very green when fourth of 6 in novice at Windsor (6f, heavy, 10/1) on debut 23 days ago, late headway. Open to improvement.

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (7) (50/1 -25%) Lunar Landscape |
50/1(-25%) | (7) Lunar Landscape 50/1, Caught the eye when fourth of 10 in C&D novice on debut in October, running on late under hands-and-heels ride. Pulled too hard over 1m here following month. Had two runs (7f/1m) as a 2yo and his standout effort was an eyecatching fourth over C&D. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (13) (80/1 -627%) Wild Hoofer |
80/1(-627%) | (13) Wild Hoofer 80/1, 52,000 gns yearling, Jungle Cat colt. Half-brother to several winners, including very smart Hong Kong 6f-1m winner Rewarding Hero and smart 7f-8.5f winner Dance And Dance. Dam 2-y-o 5f winner who stayed 7f. 52,000gns half-brother to five winners and he needs checking in market on debut. |

Was beaten 11l at Catterick last month and needs stacks of improvement on her second start. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (4) (300/1 -100%) Dunmore East |
300/1(-100%) | (4) Dunmore East 300/1, Twice-raced maiden. Sixth of 7 in maiden at Brighton (5.3f, good, 66/1) 36 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. In rear at big prices in both his runs this spring and can only be watched. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (6) (300/1 -100%) King Elvis |
300/1(-100%) | (6) King Elvis 300/1, Equiano gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to useful 1m-1¼m winner El Dessert. 100/1, last of 11 in novice at this C&D on debut 14 days ago, slowly away. 100-1 over C&D on recent debut and he finished a tailed-off last of 11. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
A tentative vote goes to MERLIN THE WIZARD, who ran well on his debut over C&D last December before being slightly unlucky when short of room at Newmarket last month. With improvement expected, he can get the better of Chelmsford winner Mindthegap and Magic Memories, who was an eye-catcher when staying on from off the pace at Windsor on his racecourse bow. Akkadian Thunder and Botanical look to be the pick of the newcomers.
MERLIN THE WIZARD confirmed debut promise here when fifth in a strong Newmarket novice on his return and shades the vote over penalised-winner Mindthegap, who beat 3 subsequent winners by a wide margin at Chelmsford in November. Magic Memories offered something to work on at Windsor and looks best of the others.
It might be worth sticking with MINDTHEGAP, who won by 4l at Chelmsford in November and is open to more progress on his return.

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (8) (1.1/1 +45%) New Business |
1.1/1(+45%) | (8) New Business 1.1/1, Twice-raced maiden. 4/1, fourth of 6 in minor event at York (7.9f, good to firm) 19 days ago, still looking green. Very much the type to do better and feasible to think he can play a part here from handy draw. Has run well enough in both starts over 1m to be a leading contender. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (1.62/1 +1%) Orchid Bloom |
1.62/1(+1%) | (3) Orchid Bloom 1.62/1, Promising type who made perfect start when landing Newmarket novice (7f) on debut in October. Similar form back from 7 months off when runner-up under a penalty at Chester (7.6f) 11 days ago and big shout here with prospect of more to come. Newmarket winner last October and good second on recent return; sets decent standard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (9) (28/1 -100%) Photon |
28/1(-100%) | (9) Photon 28/1, Once-raced maiden. 22/1, sixth of 13 in maiden at this C&D on debut 35 days ago, effort over 3f out and running on. Probably one for further down the line. Some promise on C&D debut but this looks harder. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (7/1 -40%) Battista |
7/1(-40%) | (5) Battista 7/1, 32,000 gns yearling, New Bay colt. Half-brother to useful 11.6f winner Valsad. Dam, 1½m/12.4f winner, half-sister to smart winner up to 10.3f El Drama. Represents leading yard and the betting should guide. Hood fitted for debut. Bred to want further and hooded for debut but in top hands and market check needed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (13) (22/1 -10%) Eyeshadow |
22/1(-10%) | (13) Eyeshadow 22/1, Expert Eye filly. Half-sister to 2-y-o 6f/7f winner Gavota and 6.5f/7f winner Fiduciary, both useful. Looked in need of experience when seventh of 12 in novice event at Newbury (7f) on debut 19 days ago, running green and never on terms. This will reveal more. Little impact when seventh on last month's debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (10/1 -54%) Extrication |
10/1(-54%) | (1) Extrication 10/1, 85,000 gns yearling, Iffraaj gelding. Dam, French 1¼m-15.5f winner, half-sister to useful 1½m winner Tipitena out of useful 1m winner (stayed 1¼m) Flora Trevelyan.

33/1(-136%) | (10) Rollz Royz 33/1, Ribchester gelding. Brother to 6f winner Ribaldry and half-brother to 1¼m-1¾m winner Houlton and useful winner up to 1m Kingmania. Dam 2-y-o 8.4f winner. Wears hood. Some appeal on pedigree and worth a look on debut; hooded. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (12) (66/1 -32%) Where's Freddy |
66/1(-32%) | (12) Where's Freddy 66/1, Twice-raced maiden. Last of 8 in maiden at Leicester (7f, heavy, 16/1) 25 days ago. Another likely type for handicaps moving forward. Some promise on debut but finished last on second start. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (14) (200/1 -100%) Miss Billie |
200/1(-100%) | (14) Miss Billie 200/1, Koropick filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including useful 5f-6f winner Intrinsic Bond and 6f-7f winner Billy Wedge. Dam unraced. Likely best watched on debut. Half-sister to three winners; possibly best watched on debut from wide draw. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (4) (100/1 -203%) All For Show |
100/1(-203%) | (4) All For Show 100/1, Once-raced maiden. Offered something to work on when fourth of 7 in minor event (80/1) at Chelmsford City (7f) on debut 27 days ago. Open to progress. Shaped quite well when fourth on debut but this looks too tough. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (2) (250/1 -67%) Gautrey |
250/1(-67%) | (2) Gautrey 250/1, Twice-raced maiden. 100/1, last of 12 in minor event at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 15 days ago, very slowly away and always behind. Handicaps entitled to be more his bag moving forward. Well beaten twice at Wolverhampton this spring. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (11) (200/1 -150%) The Yodeller |
200/1(-150%) | (11) The Yodeller 200/1, Once-raced maiden. Showed only greenness when last of 5 in maiden at Brighton (7f, good to soft, 14/1) on debut in September. Gelded ahead of return and this ought to reveal more. Tailed off on 7f debut last year; gelded since. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Orchid Bloom sets the form standard and she confirmed her well-being when second at Chester on her seasonal return recently. That said, she may struggle to give 2lb to NEW BUSINESS, who has contested two very competitive races this year and he may benefit from this drop in trip. Battista and Extrication boast smart pedigrees and rate the pick of the newcomers.
ORCHID BLOOM matched the form of her debut success as a 2-y-o when runner-up on return at Chester 11 days ago, and with further progress in the offing she gets the nod to build on that and make it 2 wins from 3 starts. New Business has a bigger effort in him and is feared most back down in class from a handy draw. Battista is a newcomer to note.
Several interesting newcomers in this line-up but ORCHID BLOOM is taken to defy her penalty.

Diamond Vega |

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (5) (2/1 +43%) New Endeavour |
2/1(+43%) | (5) New Endeavour 2/1, C&D winner. Good fifth of 14 in handicap at York (7f, good to firm, 10/1) 21 days ago, the combination of a big move into contention and the lack of a recent outing seeming to tell in the dying stages. Can give a good account. C&D winner who was a good fourth at York on his return last month; in the mix. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (7/1 +50%) Berkshire Phantom |
7/1(+50%) | (4) Berkshire Phantom 7/1, 2 wins from 5 runs this year. Latest win at Wolverhampton in February. Tenth of 13 in handicap at Newmarket (7f, good, 25/1) 18 days ago. Dual Tapeta winner but he struggled at Newmarket last time and has something to prove. |

3rd (1) (7/1 +0%) Animate |
7/1(+0%) | (1) Animate 7/1, 1 win from 2 runs this year. 4/7, career best when winning 5-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 23 days ago, driven out. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Player. Made it 2-6 when scoring back at 7f at Wolverhampton last month; respected up 3lb. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (10) (25/1 -25%) Ajjaj |
25/1(-25%) | (10) Ajjaj 25/1, C&D winner in May. Creditable fifth of 13 in handicap (12/1) at Newmarket (6f, good) 20 days ago. C&D winner on penultimate run and he could kick on again on this step back up in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (8.5/1 -42%) Alpha Crucis |
8.5/1(-42%) | (8) Alpha Crucis 8.5/1, 1 win from 2 runs this year. 15/8, good second of 8 in handicap at Epsom (8.5f, heavy) 43 days ago, making effort earlier than ideal. Can make presence felt. Win and good second since switched to handicaps this season; respected back in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (11/1 +61%) Awtaad Prince |
11/1(+61%) | (2) Awtaad Prince 11/1, 33/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Goodwood (7f, heavy) 32 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. Down the field in both runs this season and has a bit to prove on this switch to Polytrack. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (10/1 -43%) Ertebat |
10/1(-43%) | (9) Ertebat 10/1, Winner at Pontefract in May. Good second of 13 in handicap at Newmarket (6f, good, 3/1) 20 days ago, clear of rest. Shortlist material up in trip. Creditable second at Newmarket last time and he should have more to offer at this new trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (3) (12/1 -9%) Dark Trooper |
12/1(-9%) | (3) Dark Trooper 12/1, C&D winner. 2 wins from 3 runs this year. 1½ lengths third of 4 to Berkshire Phantom in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 10/11). Off 114 days. Two AW wins in January and he still has potential; dangerous back from a break. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (11) (150/1 -200%) Strictly Dreaming |
150/1(-200%) | (11) Strictly Dreaming 150/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 10 in nursery at Newmarket (7f, good, 33/1). Off 8 months. Easy to look elsewhere. Lightly raced filly but she struggled at a big price on her handicap debut at Newmarket. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (6) (6/1 -33%) Lunatick |
6/1(-33%) | (6) Lunatick 6/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Went like the best horse at the weights after 5 months off/wind op when second of 8 in maiden at Windsor (10f, heavy, 2/1) 30 days ago. Down in trip. Makes handicap debut. One to consider. Improved second at Windsor and he looks interesting now dropped to 7f on handicap debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
In a wide-open event marginal preference is for LUNATICK, who put in a career best when second at Windsor on his return a month ago. If finding further improvement, the son of Sea The Moon could be hard to beat on his handicap debut off a mark of 83. Diamond Vega struggled in Listed company on her final start as a juvenile but she should not be underestimated at this level. New Endeavour is another with strong form claims, while Ertebat and Alpha Crucis complete the shortlist.
ERTEBAT pulled clear of the rest when second to a similarly progressive type at Newmarket 3 weeks ago and remains of plenty of interest stepping up to 7f. Lunatick and New Endeavour head the dangers after making eye-catching reappearances at Windsor and York respectively.
This looks wide open but Hughie Morrison's handicap newcomer LUNATICK gets the vote ahead of Animate and Ertebat.

1st (1) (8/1 -45%) Tamarama |
8/1(-45%) | (1) Tamarama 8/1, Fourth of 7 in handicap (4/1) at Haydock (10.2f, good to firm) 12 days ago. Back down in trip. Not discounted. Triple winner who is on a workable mark but has bit to prove from tough draw back on AW. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (2.5/1 +29%) Marksman Queen |
2.5/1(+29%) | (6) Marksman Queen 2.5/1, Unbeaten in 2 starts. Won 8-runner minor event (2/1) at Southwell (8.1f) 30 days ago. Hood on 1st time and open to further progress on handicap debut, so makes plenty of appeal. Won both her novice events and she's respected on handicap debut; hood added. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (11) (18/1 -50%) Molly Valentine |
18/1(-50%) | (11) Molly Valentine 18/1, 9/2, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy) 56 days ago, suited by increase in trip. Should go well again. Improved form upped to 8.3f when a clearcut winner at Nottingham; respected up 7lb. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (14/1 +30%) Beccara Rose |
14/1(+30%) | (9) Beccara Rose 14/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 10/1, last of 11 in handicap at Ascot (8f, soft) 25 days ago. Others make more appeal. Disappointing in both runs this season and she has some questions to answer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (40/1 -21%) Crystal Casque |
40/1(-21%) | (2) Crystal Casque 40/1, 3-time C&D winner. Latest win here in January. 25/1, ninth of 14 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW) 61 days ago, never nearer. Others make more appeal. Five-time course winner but she needs to rediscover her spark back up in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (2.25/1 +10%) Prepense |
2.25/1(+10%) | (4) Prepense 2.25/1, Won 9-runner maiden at Newmarket (7f, good to soft, 15/8) 48 days ago, getting first run. Makes handicap debut. Type to go on improving and is of obvious interest despite her wide draw. Newmarket winner who is open to more progress upped to 1m on handicap debut; key player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (22/1 -267%) Rainbow Sky |
22/1(-267%) | (3) Rainbow Sky 22/1, Thrice-raced winner. C&D winner. Fifth of 7 in minor event at Wetherby (10f, good to soft, 4/9) 38 days ago, finding little. Has been handed a stiff mark for handicap debut. C&D winner who is still unexposed and is a possible improver back at 1m on handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (16/1 +0%) Speriamo |
16/1(+0%) | (8) Speriamo 16/1, Course winner. 12/1, fourth of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 72 days ago, not ideally placed. Others look better treated. Dual winner at up to 7f but she needs to find more at this new trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (7) (4/1 +47%) Maid In Kentucky |
4/1(+47%) | (7) Maid In Kentucky 4/1, 1 win from 2 runs this year. Bit below form third of 10 in handicap at Brighton (9.9f, good, 3/1) 36 days ago, making effort earlier than ideal. Very much of interest back on AW. Dual AW winner who looked stretched over 1m2f at Brighton latest; dangerous back in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (5) (22/1 +0%) Mayfair Gold |
22/1(+0%) | (5) Mayfair Gold 22/1, 2 wins from 3 runs this year. Latest win at Chelmsford City in May. 11/1, below form eighth of 13 in handicap at Newmarket (8f, good) 20 days ago, left poorly placed. Others preferred. Two AW wins this year but both in Class 5 events and she was laboured back on turf latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (10) (80/1 -300%) Switchel |
80/1(-300%) | (10) Switchel 80/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 7/1, second of 7 in maiden at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy) 26 days ago. Makes handicap debut. More to come and can't be discounted. Unexposed filly but opening mark looks on the high side and she needs improvement. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
PREPENSE readily accounted for some decent rivals in a 7f Newmarket maiden in April and the daughter of Kingman is hard to oppose off an opening mark of 85. The unbeaten Marksman Queen is an obvious threat to the selection and may improve for the application of a first-time hood. Rainbow Sky should be noted now returning to the all-weather, while similar comments apply to Maid In Kentucky and Mayfair Gold.
MARKSMAN QUEEN is 2 from 2 and open to more progress on her first go in handicaps, so she's preferred to Prepense, who opened her account at Newmarket last time and is bred to do much better. Maid In Kentucky is another one to consider.
The vote goes to PREPENSE, who won a Newmarket maiden in April and is open to more progress at this new trip on her handicap debut.

1st (6) (8.5/1 +6%) Savvy Knight |
8.5/1(+6%) | (6) Savvy Knight 8.5/1, Won first 3 starts last year before a distinctly mixed bag in competitive handicaps thereafter. However, back on track when fourth over 11f here on return in April and likely soft ground caught him out at Ascot since. Not out of things back on AW. Had an excuse on soft ground last time and has claims if he can bounce back near his best. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (3.5/1 +22%) Educator |
3.5/1(+22%) | (5) Educator 3.5/1, Creditable third of 8 in handicap at Doncaster (11.9f, good to firm, 3/1) 5 days ago, clear of rest. Makes polytrack debut. Cheekpieces back on. Dual turf winner who was placed at Doncaster (1m4f) last week; in the mix on AW debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (3.5/1 -17%) Stay Well |
3.5/1(-17%) | (1) Stay Well 3.5/1, C&D winner. Respectable eighth of 13 in handicap at York (10.2f, good to firm, 12/1) 19 days ago, keeping on gradually. Boasts a positive profile on AW and his mark remains a workable one. Claims. C&D winner who looks interesting dropped back in grade in his second run after an absence. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (11) (10/1 +29%) Enthrallment |
10/1(+29%) | (11) Enthrallment 10/1, 9f maiden winner as a 2-y-o who ran with credit on 4 of his 5 starts in handicaps at up to 12f last term. Changed hands for 42,000 gns ahead of return and interesting what the market makes of him. Ex-Irish; returns for new yard after 244 days off but he needs checking in the market. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (12) (6/1 +40%) Neandra |
6/1(+40%) | (12) Neandra 6/1, Dual winner on AW at Lingfield last term and signed off with an encouraging sixth in 14-runner York handicap (13.8f) in October, impressing in how she travelled. Unproven on ground, below best when eighth of 10 in handicap at Epsom (12f, heavy) 6 weeks ago but better expected here. Both wins have come on Polytrack but she needs a major revival back on AW. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (10/1 -11%) Moving Light |
10/1(-11%) | (7) Moving Light 10/1, C&D winner who is very lightly raced for a 6-y-o, not at best when last of 4 on sole start at Doncaster (10.2f) last summer. Does at least return with yard amongst the winners and he's still unexposed on AW. Good showing anticipated. His last win came over C&D but he has plenty to prove after another lengthy absence. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (4.5/1 +63%) Second Slip |
4.5/1(+63%) | (2) Second Slip 4.5/1, Low-mileage 6-y-o who proved steadily progressive on AW during 2021, justifying strong market support to make it 2 wins from last 3 starts at Newcastle (12.5f) in September of that year. Absent/undergone wind surgery ahead of return and the market may prove a useful guide. Back from long absence but he ended 2021 on a high and needs a market check; had wind op. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (3) (50/1 -25%) Graphite |
50/1(-25%) | (3) Graphite 50/1, Ran right up to best when third in this race 12 months ago before finding Northumberland Plate trip taxing his stamina next time. Not disgraced back on turf at Windsor (11.5f) on final start in October but he may find a couple too good on return here. Lightly raced since his last win in 2021 and comes with risks attached after another break. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (4) (25/1 -25%) Civil Law |
25/1(-25%) | (4) Civil Law 25/1, Six wins from 21 Flat runs. Latest win at Wolverhampton in December. Respectable fourth of 9 in handicap at this C&D (25/1) 14 days ago, needing stronger gallop. His five AW wins have all come over shorter trips on Tapeta; others look stronger. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (13) (40/1 -82%) Dal Mallart |
40/1(-82%) | (13) Dal Mallart 40/1, 12/1, not seen to best effect when third of 7 in handicap at Windsor (10f, heavy) 30 days ago, shuffled right back on rail before straight. Arrives here operating from last winning mark. All three wins have come at 1m2f and she looks opposable back up in trip and grade. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (9) (28/1 -12%) Celtic Art |
28/1(-12%) | (9) Celtic Art 28/1, Twice successful on AW in 2022 before some lesser runs on turf. Added maiden/novice hurdle victories to his tally earlier this year. Jumping let him down on handicap debut at Sandown (2m) in April but returns to the level operating below last winning mark. Pulled up over hurdles latest but he's not ruled out off a workable mark back on the Flat. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (8) (20/1 -150%) Tashi |
20/1(-150%) | (8) Tashi 20/1, Just the one win from 21 starts for Sheila Lavery in Ireland but she shaped encouragingly on back of 6 months off when third for new yard at Epsom (12f) in April. Slow starting not ideal but she's certainly not out of things if building on that here. Record of 1-22 but placed at Epsom (1m4f) on her stable debut in April; in the mix. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (10) (25/1 -150%) Winterwatch |
25/1(-150%) | (10) Winterwatch 25/1, Made a winning return to action over 2m here this time last year. Disappointed at Galway next time but quickly back on track when twice a runner-up over hurdles thereafter. Arrives here on back of a 7-month break but fact he's gone well fresh an obvious plus. Down in trip. His last win came over 2m here and he has some work to do back at this trip on his return. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (14) (100/1 -150%) Sea Appeal |
100/1(-150%) | (14) Sea Appeal 100/1, Sixteenth of 19 in handicap at Newbury (10f, good to firm, 100/1) 19 days ago. That was his first start for 7 months but he's tough to assess nevertheless. Won at Chelmsford last summer but has struggled since and others are preferred. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
STAY WELL offered something to work with when eighth on his reappearance at York last month and he makes plenty of appeal now returned to the C&D of his last triumph. Educator returned to form with a third-placed finish at Doncaster on Friday and is another to be interested in if proving as effective on this all-weather debut. Tashi also hit the frame last time at Epsom and completes the shortlist.
Plenty arrive with claims and it could pay to side with STAY WELL. He ought to have come on for his reappearance run and, boasting a progressive profile on all weather, he can confirm his present mark a workable one. Moving Light is very lightly raced for a 6-y-o but it's interesting connections have kept the faith and he's worth a look back from a break. Savvy Knight back on polytrack and Neandra are others to consider.
An open race in which vote goes to EDUCATOR, who was a good third when stepped back up to 1m4f at Doncaster last week.

1st (5) (5.5/1 +45%) Wholeofthemoon |
5.5/1(+45%) | (5) Wholeofthemoon 5.5/1, Respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (13f, AW, 4/1) 25 days ago, considerately handled. Up in trip. Likely to be back to his best with a run under his belt. In the frame in all 5 handicaps; kept on nicely on return over 1m5f; new trip worth a go. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (4/1 +38%) Motazzen |
4/1(+38%) | (1) Motazzen 4/1, Respectable fifth of 11 in handicap at Goodwood (16f, heavy, 6/1) 32 days ago. Still of interest bearing in mind the encouragement he showed on his penultimate start (reappearance) at the same course. Mixed for both yards in Britain and not obviously ahead of his mark but does have C&D form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (8/1 +43%) Sharp Distinction |
8/1(+43%) | (8) Sharp Distinction 8/1, 6/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, respectable sixth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (15.8f, AW). Off 137 days. Handicapper looks in control at the moment. Close 2nd when upped to 2m here in November; lacks recent run; regular cheekpieces off. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (10) (150/1 -127%) Home And Dry |
150/1(-127%) | (10) Home And Dry 150/1, Temperamental sort. Blinkered for 1st time, last of 5 in handicap (16/1) at Yarmouth (14.1f, good to firm). Off 23 months. Hard to fancy for new yard. Won 2m handicap debut for Mark Johnston in 2021; off since July that year. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (11) (8/1 -7%) Kalamity Kitty |
8/1(-7%) | (11) Kalamity Kitty 8/1, Course winner. 13/8, career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Nottingham (16f, good to firm), responding well. Thriving when last seen but year-long absence is an obvious concern. Won last 4 starts, including on return in 2022 and over 2m last May; absence to overcome. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (2/1 +33%) Havaila |
2/1(+33%) | (2) Havaila 2/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. Fair winner at 20f over hurdles. 4/1, very good second of 11 in handicap at Goodwood (14f, good to soft) 33 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. Enters calculations. In good form, stayed on well when 2nd at Goodwood (1m6f); can go well on AW debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (25/1 -127%) De Vega's Warrior |
25/1(-127%) | (4) De Vega's Warrior 25/1, 14/1, second of 4 in handicap at Doncaster (16.5f, heavy) 32 days ago. Going through a good spell and likely to give his running once more. Some fair efforts at 1m4f-2m for this yard but 0-12 and looks to need weight off his back. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (10/1 +29%) Beggarman |
10/1(+29%) | (9) Beggarman 10/1, C&D winner. Last of 7 in handicap (6/1) at Chelmsford City (14f) 34 days ago. Should strip fitter for that, so not ruled out from a sliding mark. C&D winner; went off the boil in second half of 2022 and reappearance was inconclusive. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (6) (8.5/1 -42%) Spit Spot |
8.5/1(-42%) | (6) Spit Spot 8.5/1, Career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Chelmsford City (13.3f, 15/8) 13 days ago, getting first run. Up in trip. Unexposed for this stable and likely to make her presence felt once again. Mildly progressive at about 1m6f; has improvement in her off 2lb higher than latest win. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (3) (18/1 -140%) Eagle Court |
18/1(-140%) | (3) Eagle Court 18/1, 18/1, won 9-runner handicap at Salisbury (12f, good to soft) 34 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Heading back in the right direction recently. Won at 1m6f on Tapeta; worth another go at a staying trip after 1m4f turf win in May. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (12) (33/1 +0%) Dirham Emirati |
33/1(+0%) | (12) Dirham Emirati 33/1, 28/1, eleventh of 18 in handicap at Newbury (12f, good) 19 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Something to prove. In poor form on AW and turf since back from a spell over hurdles; remains risky. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
The progressive KALAMITY KITTY recorded a career-best performance when completing a hat-trick at Nottingham last May and a 5lb rise may not prevent a five-timer if resuming in the same heart. Havaila is only 1lb higher for his runner-up effort at Goodwood last month and shouldn't be far away if running to a similar level on this polytrack debut. Last-time-out winner Spit Spot arrives in good form and could find further improvement now stepped up to 2m.
SPIT SPOT opened her account at the second attempt for her current stable at Chelmsford recently and, up in trip, she's worth a chance to follow up with more progress on the cards. Havaila ran well at Goodwood a month ago, so he looks the main threat ahead of Wholeofthemoon.
Kalamity Kitty remains of interest despite the absence but SPIT SPOT (nap) is taken to continue her progress in staying events.

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.
