---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (1) (2.5/1 -33%) Sovereign Spirit |
2.5/1(-33%) | (1) Sovereign Spirit 2.5/1, Fair form. 10/3, third of 4 in handicap at Southwell (1½m) 17 days ago, tending to race a little in snatches in a first-time hood. No surprise to see that quickly discarded. Makes polytrack debut. Finished 2l third in Southwell handicap most recently; major contender on that form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (4/1 +33%) Lionella |
4/1(+33%) | (2) Lionella 4/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 25/1, sixth of 9 in nursery at Wolverhampton (8.6f). Off 170 days. Significantly up in trip. Makes polytrack debut. Pedigree strongly suggests she'll improve for this step up in distance; interesting. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (1.38/1 +39%) Book Of Tales |
1.38/1(+39%) | (4) Book Of Tales 1.38/1, Limited impact in 3 qualifying runs around 1m but well bred and rates a potential big improver now tackling handicap company over a much longer trip. Has been gelded. Should prove suited by this step up to 1m4f on handicap debut; respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (7.5/1 -67%) Duveen |
7.5/1(-67%) | (5) Duveen 7.5/1, Modest maiden. Good third of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (1½m) 18 days ago, staying on from the rear. Close third in similar event at Wolverhampton last time; good chance on form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (10/1 +29%) Highland Flyer |
10/1(+29%) | (3) Highland Flyer 10/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eighth of 12 in novice at Kempton (1m) on final 2-y-o start. Goes up significantly in trip for handicap debut after 6 months off. Cheekpieces on first time. Has been gelded. Open to improvement now handicapping over a new trip and fitted with headgear. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
It is difficult to predict with full confidence based on the limited information given, but 1.88/1 (1) SOVEREIGN SPIRIT and 2.25/1 (4) BOOK OF TALES seem like the strongest contenders. 1.88/1 (1) SOVEREIGN SPIRIT has recent form and a fair track record, while 2.25/1 (4) BOOK OF TALES is well-bred and could be a big improver over a longer trip in handicap company. 4.5/1 (5) DUVEEN and 14/1 (3) HIGHLAND FLYER also have some form and potential, but 6/1 (2) LIONELLA seems like more of a long shot.
Duveen had her first crack at this trip last time and was beaten under a length into third at Wolverhampton in this grade. She is likely to remain competitive, but preference goes to SOVEREIGN SPIRIT, who has Oisin Murphy booked. The three-year-old was dropped 2lb from his latest effort at Southwell, when racing wide and staying on well at the finish, and he is fancied to be on the premises once more. Book Of Tales completes the shortlist.
BOOK OF TALES is bred to be a lot better than an opening mark in the 50s and earns the vote, with confidence in his chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. Oisin Murphy takes over in the saddle on Sovereign Spirit for the first time and Andrew Balding's charge may give the selection most to think about.
The form standard is set by SOVEREIGN SPIRIT and Duveen. The others are open to improvement (check for market moves).

1st (4) (1.38/1 +15%) Sausalito |
1.38/1(+15%) | (4) Sausalito 1.38/1, Comes here on a roll, landing quick-fire 5-timer in a 12f handicap here in March and enhanced his form in defeat subsequently, solid second of 14 in handicap at this course (12f, AW, 14/1) 19 days ago, well positioned. Ought to go well again under Billy Loughnane. Not looked back since the visor went on, winning his first five including three here.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (3.5/1 +53%) Pride Of Nepal |
3.5/1(+53%) | (3) Pride Of Nepal 3.5/1, Three-time winner in turf handicaps at upto 12f last summer before good fourth at Goodwood (9f) in September. Didn't see things out back over hurdles at Fakenham (2m) a month later and he did come on for his respective reappearance effort last term. Could appreciate this return to Flat action and he's a triple winner who goes on the AW.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (5.5/1 +21%) Endued |
5.5/1(+21%) | (2) Endued 5.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Fourth of 7 in handicap (11/2) at Leicester (8.2f, heavy) 12 days ago, underfoot conditions probably catching him out. Type to bounce back returned to an artificial surface and he's unexposed at this sort of trip. Stamina is not assured over this far but likely to have more to offer.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (10/1 -25%) Semser |
10/1(-25%) | (5) Semser 10/1, Course winner. 22/1, ninth of 11 in handicap at this course (8f, AW) 30 days ago, seemingly in need of the run on the back of 6 months off. Back up in trip and he's not out of things from this sort of mark. Previous winner on a handy mark and well worth considering.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (3.5/1 +13%) Motataabeq |
3.5/1(+13%) | (6) Motataabeq 3.5/1, Lightly-raced 5-y-o who matched previous best when second in 13-runner C&D handicap in December, every chance 1f out and keeping on. Not discounted on return to action. Lightly raced; off since early December when finishing second of 13 over C&D.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Based on the summary, 1.63/1 (4) SAUSALITO seems to have the best chances of doing well, having won five races including three at the current course. He also had a solid performance in his last race, finishing second. 7.5/1 (3) PRIDE OF NEPAL also has a good record and could do well on the all-weather track. 6/1 (1) MASQOOL and 7/1 (2) ENDUED are in good form, but their marks and stamina could be a hindrance. 4/1 (6) MOTATAABEQ and 8/1 (5) SEMSER are not discounted but have fewer wins to their name.
Sausalito has been in splendid form this year, winning five of his eight starts, but he has been raised 22lb since the first of those victories, which could give a chance to the Jeremy Scott-trained PRIDE OF NEPAL. The son of The Gurkha ran well off this mark at Goodwood when last seen on the Flat in September, that was a warmer contest than this and, therefore, he could prove too good for these. Motataabeq is best of the remainder.
SAUSALITO has come a long way on all-weather in recent months, winning 5 times prior to a solid second in the All-Weather Vase over further here 3 weeks ago. He shades the vote with Billy Loughnane taking off a handy 5 lb. The returning Motataabeq and the selection's stablemate Semser head up the dangers.
Gary Moore's SAUSALITO is tactically versatile and has been a model of consistency since the visor went on.

1st (11) (4.5/1 +55%) Tiger Bay |
4.5/1(+55%) | (11) Tiger Bay 4.5/1, Reached the frame over 6f/7f at Wolverhampton at the end of 2022. Has the potential for better again back from a break. Showed ability in two races at Wolverhampton last term; form has been boosted. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (10) (3.33/1 +49%) Regal Fanfare |
3.33/1(+49%) | (10) Regal Fanfare 3.33/1, 7/1, sixth of 10 in novice at Kempton (7f) on debut in November, never nearer. In top hands and can be expected to improve, possibly considerably so. Attractively bred; shaped with promise at Kempton on sole 2yo run; should improve. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (1.62/1 +28%) Bell Song |
1.62/1(+28%) | (2) Bell Song 1.62/1, Promising individual. Left debut behind when third of 11 in novice at Southwell (7f) 22 days ago, staying on well. Likely to progress again. Ran well behind two useful colts at Southwell on reappearance; possibilities. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (2.5/1 -25%) Inverlochy |
2.5/1(-25%) | (7) Inverlochy 2.5/1, Promising sort. Fourth of 10 in novice at Newmarket (6f, good, 5/2) on debut last May, not knocked about. Tongue strap on first time. It's taken a while to get her back but in good hands and it'll be interesting to see how strong the betting vibes are. Finished fourth in above-average race at Newmarket last May; interesting on reappearance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (66/1 -100%) Expert Witness |
66/1(-100%) | (5) Expert Witness 66/1, 50/1 and tongue tied, seventh of 10 in novice at Chelmsford (1m) on debut 55 days ago, not knocked about. May do better. Ran to a modest figure on debut; others preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (100/1 +0%) Fitzroy River |
100/1(+0%) | (6) Fitzroy River 100/1, Well held in 2 outings on Kempton's AW last year. Looks more one for handicaps after this. Pair of duck eggs at Kempton as a 2yo. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (66/1 -100%) Break The Spell |
66/1(-100%) | (3) Break The Spell 66/1, Second on Epsom debut last July but not in the same form at Kempton (7f) 4 months later. Cheekpieces on first time. Others are preferred. Chance partly depends on how well she takes to first-time headgear. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (28/1 -12%) Labiqa |
28/1(-12%) | (8) Labiqa 28/1, Twice-raced maiden. 16/1, sixth of 8 in novice at Wolverhampton (7f) 18 days ago. Improvement will be needed. Likely to be more interesting when switched to handicaps. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (9) (33/1 +50%) Mine That Ship |
33/1(+50%) | (9) Mine That Ship 33/1, Twice-raced maiden. Eighth of 10 in novice at Kempton (6f, 33/1) 28 days ago. Others are preferred. Needs improvement on her two efforts. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (4) (66/1 +0%) Diamond Hands |
66/1(+0%) | (4) Diamond Hands 66/1, 50/1, sixth of 9 in C&D maiden on debut 26 days ago, slowly away. Hinted at ability in C&D maiden last month. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Based on the summary, 2/1 (7) INVERLOCHY and 2.25/1 (2) BELL SONG appear to have the most promising recent form, with both horses finishing well in their respective races. 3.5/1 (1) PASTICHE also has potential, having won a maiden at Southwell and coming from a leading stable, but does have a penalty to overcome. 6.5/1 (10) REGAL FANFARE and 10/1 (11) TIGER BAY have shown some ability in their past races and could improve. 25/1 (8) LABIQA and 33/1 (3) BREAK THE SPELL may need more time or a switch to handicaps to show their potential. 33/1 (5) EXPERT WITNESS and 66/1 (9) MINE THAT SHIP have not shown enough to be considered top contenders. 66/1 (4) DIAMOND HANDS and 100/1 (6) FITZROY RIVER are also unlikely to be major players in this race.
INVERLOCHY was sent off favourite for an extremely warm maiden that has worked out very well at Newmarket in May last year, with seven subsequent winners coming out of it. She is a half-sister to recent Earl Of Sefton winner Ottoman Fleet and should appreciate the step up to 7f. Last-time-out winner Pastiche carries a 7lb penalty, which makes life tougher, but she could have more to come. Regal Fanfare is another to note.
BELL SONG showed promise behind a couple of useful colts at Southwell earlier this month and could be the way to go with further improvement on the cards. Inverlochy hasn't been seen since her Newmarket debut fourth last May but the fact she went off favourite suggests she's quite well regarded and it will be interesting to see if her supporters return back from a lay-off. Regal Fanfare could easily leave last November's debut effort well behind and also makes the shortlist.
There should be improvement to come from INVERLOCHY. Southwell winner Pastiche is second choice, ahead of Bell Song.

1st (14) (18/1 +45%) Purple Poppy |
18/1(+45%) | (14) Purple Poppy 18/1, Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. Ran well after 10 months off when third of 11 in handicap at Kempton (8f, 40/1) 8 weeks ago. Needs to back that up here. Ran okay at Kempton last month but more will be needed in this field. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (2/1 +20%) Buraback |
2/1(+20%) | (8) Buraback 2/1, C&D winner. 5/1, fared better dropped into a 0-60 for the first time when fourth of 14 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 8 days ago, running on when forced to switch. Shortlist material with the booking of Oisin Murphy catching the eye. Promising stable debut last week; two C&D wins to his name; Oisin Murphy on today; player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (12) (11/1 -38%) Inaam |
11/1(-38%) | (12) Inaam 11/1, 3-time course winner this year, latest in March. 10/3, creditable close third of 11 in handicap at this C&D (AW) 32 days ago, running on. Can give another good account. Three course wins this year; near miss latest; another big run looks on the cards. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (10/1 -82%) Taskheer |
10/1(-82%) | (6) Taskheer 10/1, Course winner. Followed up under a penalty after just 3 days off in 7-runner handicap at Chelmsford City (8f, 5/1) 46 days ago, again not having much to spare at the line. 3 lb higher and should make a bold bid for the hat-trick. Chasing a hat-trick after two 1m Polytrack wins last month; big player back at 7f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (7/1 +65%) River Wharfe |
7/1(+65%) | (4) River Wharfe 7/1, C&D winner. Not disgraced when sixth of 11 in handicap at this course (8f, AW, 22/1) 30 days ago. Not taken lightly down to his last winning mark. Chance on this winter's best but he needs to step up on his last two runs to win. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (7/1 +0%) The Nail Gunner |
7/1(+0%) | (1) The Nail Gunner 7/1, Three wins from 10 runs last year. 7/2, run best excused when sixth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 3 weeks ago, worst of draw. Can bounce back. All wins at 6f but he has gone close over C&D; well drawn to attack but others appeal more. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (10) (28/1 -12%) Nefarious |
28/1(-12%) | (10) Nefarious 28/1, C&D winner. 22/1, seventh of 12 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 9 days ago. Easy enough to look elsewhere. Yet to find his best form this winter but last time was a bit more promising. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (3) (14/1 +30%) Ajrad |
14/1(+30%) | (3) Ajrad 14/1, C&D winner in November. Again below form when seventh of 10 in handicap (11/2) at this C&D (AW) 4 months ago. Will need to hit the ground running. C&D win in November brings him into the reckoning; less good twice since though. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (11) (20/1 +9%) Bear To Dream |
20/1(+9%) | (11) Bear To Dream 20/1, 28/1, bounced back to form when a close fourth of 11 in handicap at this C&D (AW) 32 days ago, running on. Enters calculations from the same mark. Fair run over C&D when too free and racing wide; needs to settle better. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (7) (10/1 +17%) Luna Queen |
10/1(+17%) | (7) Luna Queen 10/1, C&D winner in April. Respectable third of 11 in handicap at Yarmouth (6f, heavy, 15/2) 11 days ago, plugging on final 1f. Can go well back at this venue provided a wide draw doesn't scupper his chance. C&D winner this month and also ran well on turf last time; tricky draw now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (13) (18/1 -157%) Swiss Rowe |
18/1(-157%) | (13) Swiss Rowe 18/1, 12/1 and visored for 1st time, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Kempton (7f) 47 days ago, pushed out. 6 lb higher here and could go well on his first try at this track. Two wins on AW this winter for B Loughnane; up 6lb so another career best is required. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (5) (20/1 -43%) Mount Mogan |
20/1(-43%) | (5) Mount Mogan 20/1, C&D winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2022. 2¼ lengths fifth of 6 to Inaam in handicap (3/1) at this C&D (AW) 7 weeks ago. Mark continues to tumble. Two solid efforts over C&D last month but more will be needed if he's to add to his tally. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (2) (12/1 +25%) Split Elevens |
12/1(+25%) | (2) Split Elevens 12/1, Unreliable sort. C&D winner. Two wins from 6 runs this year. 11/1, not in same form as previously when sixth of 11 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f) 26 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Quirky customer who needs things to drop just right. Two wins this year and he'll appreciate the return to Class 6; yard also run Inaam. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Based on the summary, 2.5/1 (8) BURABACK and 5.5/1 (6) TASKHEER seem like strong contenders with their recent wins and good performances. 8/1 (12) INAAM also has a good track record with three course wins this year and a creditable third place in the latest race. 7/1 (13) SWISS ROWE and 12/1 (7) LUNA QUEEN also have a chance, but their higher odds suggest they may need to perform exceptionally well to win. The other horses, including 25/1 (10) NEFARIOUS and 33/1 (14) PURPLE POPPY, seem less likely to win based on their recent form.
The veteran INAAM has a terrific recent record around here and there is no reason to suggest why he can't continue in that vein as he looks to make it four wins in his last seven starts. Taskheer has done it well over further the last twice, including here last month, and he is likely to be thereabouts, along with Luna Queen and Swiss Rowe.
Plenty in with a squeak but BURABACK found life easier dropped in grade when fourth at Southwell 8 days, and with this being just his third outing for Mick Appleby, he gets the verdict to notch career success number 4 with the booking of Oisin Murphy catching the eye. The Nail Gunner's last effort is easy to excuse so he may emerge as the main danger, ahead of Bear To Dream and the hat-trick-seeking Taskheer.
Inaam and Taskheer are high on the list but BURABACK may be able to strike at the second time of asking for his new stable.

1st (4) (4.5/1 +59%) Just Amber |
4.5/1(+59%) | (4) Just Amber 4.5/1, Landed back-to-back handicaps on turf at around 1m last summer. Inflated mark seemed to catch her out in trio of starts thereafter, tenth of 14 in handicap at Kempton (1m) in October. May need this on return from 6 months off. 2 turf wins last summer; handicapper on top after but returns from break at a lower level. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (1.88/1 +0%) Granary Queen |
1.88/1(+0%) | (1) Granary Queen 1.88/1, C&D winner. Four wins from 18 runs last year. Creditable third of 14 in handicap at this course (7f, AW, 14/1) 19 days ago, caught further back than ideal. Expected to be bang there. Ran a mighty race over 7f here on Good Friday; needs luck but still on a good mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (6/1 -33%) Wadacre Grace |
6/1(-33%) | (5) Wadacre Grace 6/1, C&D winner. 4/1, career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Newcastle (8f) 23 days ago, making all. Respected for all this revised mark demands that little bit more now. Won 2 of last 3, both from the front in small fields; may enjoy the run of things again. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (3.2/1 -7%) Windsor Pass |
3.2/1(-7%) | (2) Windsor Pass 3.2/1, First run since leaving Mrs J. Harrington when second of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f, 11/1) 33 days ago. That was an excellent effort on the back of a lengthy absence and respected back at 1m. Good 2nd on stable debut after long absence last month (7f); 1m no problem; sound claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (5.5/1 +27%) Valentinka |
5.5/1(+27%) | (6) Valentinka 5.5/1, C&D winner. Respectable eighth of 14 in handicap at this course (7f, AW, 14/1) 19 days ago, weakening final 1f. Others more persuasive. Handicapper in command after an easy Wolverhampton win last summer; others look stronger. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (14/1 -133%) New Heights |
14/1(-133%) | (3) New Heights 14/1, Three wins from 11 runs last year. 12/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 13 days ago, shaping as if better for the run on the back of 6 months off. However, probably she's not got much in hand from this sort of mark. Three turf wins last season; sharper for recent return to action; high in the weights now. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
It is difficult to make a clear prediction as the summary provides limited information on each horse's form and capabilities. However, 1.88/1 (1) GRANARY QUEEN seems to have had recent success and has a good track record, making her a potential contender. 3/1 (2) WINDSOR PASS also had a strong performance on their stable debut and could be worth considering. 4.5/1 (5) WADACRE GRACE has won two of her last three races and may benefit from familiar conditions. Ultimately, further research and analysis would be necessary to make an informed prediction.
GRANARY QUEEN has been knocking on the door of late and on each occasion she has given the impression that she would be well served by stepping back up in trip. The C&D winner gets that opportunity now and she is preferred to the likes of Newcastle runner-up Windsor Pass and Wadacre Grace, who has only gone up 2lb for winning over this trip at Newcastle 23 days ago.
GRANARY QUEEN needs things to just drop right but ran really well on the back of 4 months off when third over 7f here 3 weeks ago and she gets the narrow vote from a 1 lb higher mark. Windsor Pass, who also ran well on the back of a lengthy absence, and Newcastle-scorer Wadacre Grace are others to consider.
Windsor Pass ran a fine race on her stable debut but GRANARY QUEEN also caught the eye last time and she gets the vote.

1st (4) (2.25/1 +44%) Gold Medal |
2.25/1(+44%) | (4) Gold Medal 2.25/1, First run since leaving Richard Hughes when 6/1, won 9-runner handicap at this C&D (AW) 28 days ago, keeping on well. Makes plenty of appeal once more. 2-2 over C&D, the latest success on stable/seasonal debut; respected kept to this track. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (8/1 +27%) Bezzas Lad |
8/1(+27%) | (3) Bezzas Lad 8/1, 12/1, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at this course (5f, AW) 26 days ago, comfortably. Has a tricky draw to overcome but can't be dismissed. Broke the 5f course record here last month; now 2-4 at Lingfield; effective over 6f. |

3rd (1) (28/1 +58%) Mamillius |
28/1(+58%) | (1) Mamillius 28/1, C&D winner. Last of 8 in handicap (80/1) at this course (7f, AW) 28 days ago. Out of sorts since his last success; opposed despite dropping back in grade. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (11) (66/1 -32%) Knockout Blow |
66/1(-32%) | (11) Knockout Blow 66/1, C&D winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2019. Respectable 2¼ lengths fourth of 10 to Lilkian in handicap (12/1) at this C&D (AW). Off 13 months. Not easy to make a case for. Absent for 13 months; 7lb out of weights; debut for new yard; opposed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (12/1 +0%) El Hombre |
12/1(+0%) | (7) El Hombre 12/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in March. Fifth of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 7/1) 16 days ago. Others more persuasive. Has form figures of 3121 under Billy Loughnane; not dismissed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (4.5/1 +18%) Lilkian |
4.5/1(+18%) | (6) Lilkian 4.5/1, 3-time C&D winner. Latest win here in March. Creditable second of 8 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 7/1) 7 days ago. Should go well again. Consistent this year; close second at Kempton last week; solid chance off same mark. |

7th (2) (12/1 +25%) Alafdhal |
12/1(+25%) | (2) Alafdhal 12/1, Five wins from 19 runs last year. 6/1, fourth of 6 in handicap at Brighton (5.3f, good) 4 days ago, merely closing up late. Others preferred. Bagged five AW wins from November to January; beaten in last seven races. |

8th (10) (12/1 +0%) Swiss Pride |
12/1(+0%) | (10) Swiss Pride 12/1, 6-time C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Creditable third of 8 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 8/1) 7 days ago. Not discounted. Ties in closely with Lilkian on Kempton form last week; won this race in 2021. |

9th (5) (14/1 -40%) Libertus |
14/1(-40%) | (5) Libertus 14/1, Last of 11 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f, 7/1). Off 6 months. Plenty to prove at present. Hindered by wide draw last time out; remains open to further progress in AW handicaps. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (8) (3.33/1 -11%) Cool Lightning |
3.33/1(-11%) | (8) Cool Lightning 3.33/1, Lightly-raced winner. 4/1, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 30 days ago, kept up to work. Likely to to better still. Made all for comfortable win at Wolverhampton last month; form has substance; unexposed. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Based on the summary, 3/1 (8) COOL LIGHTNING and 4/1 (4) GOLD MEDAL seem to have the best chances of winning, with solid recent form and strong performances at the track. 5/1 (9) BOBBY ON THE BEAT and 5.5/1 (6) LILKIAN also have solid claims and could be in contention. The other horses, including 10/1 (5) LIBERTUS, 16/1 (2) ALAFDHAL, 50/1 (11) KNOCKOUT BLOW, and 66/1 (1) MAMILLIUS, seem less likely to win based on recent form or other factors. It's important to note that upsets can and do happen in horse racing, so anything is possible.
GOLD MEDAL made a winning seasonal/stable debut over C&D a month ago and a 4lb rise for that success may not be enough to stop him here. That said, the unexposed Cool Lightning and Bobby On The Beat are also recent winners and they could give him plenty to think about. Others to note are Bezzas Lad, Lilkian and El Hombre.
GOLD MEDAL made a successful start for his new stable over C&D last month and looks up to defying a rise for all that it's a competitive race for the grade. Cool Lightning is an obvious danger and another solid showing is expected from Lilkian
Preference is for GOLD MEDAL, who may well have more to offer over this C&D and for his new yard. Cool Lightning is feared most.

9th (8) (14/1 +0%) Tilsworth Ony Ta |
14/1(+0%) | (8) Tilsworth Ony Ta 14/1, One win from 24 Flat runs. Seventh of 11 in handicap (13/2) at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 15 days ago. Visor on 1st time. Good mark on best form and the addition of a visor could pique his interest. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
It is difficult to make a definitive prediction based on this summary as there are several horses that could potentially do well. However, some horses that stand out as potential contenders are 3/1 (3) SPARKED Conditions, 5/1 (1) MEWS HOUSE, and 6/1 (4) STORM MELODY, all of whom have a recent good form and success over the course and distance.
SPARKED bounced back to form when only beaten a neck into second over C&D last week and she is hard to oppose off the same mark here. Mews House has not been disgraced on either start this year and is an obvious threat to the selection. Storm Melody edges out Reversion and Tilsworth Ony Ta to be the pick of the remainder.
SPARKED stepped up markedly on her reappearance and perhaps would have won with an unimpeded run over C&D last week. She can make amends at the main expense of Mews House and Storm Melody.
Last week's C&D handicap in which SPARKED (nap) finished in front of Storm Melody and I'm Mable may prove the key formline.
Ths is the racecard key.

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.
