1st (1) (3.33/1 +5%) Musical Mystery |
3.33/1(+5%) | (1) Musical Mystery 3.33/1, 6/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at Bath (5.7f, good to firm) 41 days ago. Up in trip. First run for yard after leaving Ali Stronge. Nicely treated on best form and merits respect under Marquand. Maiden for previous yard; new trip may help on debut for new stable; dam 7f winner. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (7/1 +7%) Purple Poppy |
7/1(+7%) | (7) Purple Poppy 7/1, C&D winner in April. Creditable second of 9 in handicap (12/1) at Kempton (8f) 34 days ago. Should give another good account. Won gamely over C&D in April; solid second at Kempton on sole start since; strong chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (7.5/1 -25%) Dulcet Spirit |
7.5/1(-25%) | (5) Dulcet Spirit 7.5/1, C&D winner. 5/1, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Chepstow (7f, good to soft) 18 days ago, just holding on. Only nudged up 1 lb and should remain very competitive. Held on for narrow success at Chepstow last month; C&D winner off this mark in January. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (33/1 -83%) Sir Sedric |
33/1(-83%) | (8) Sir Sedric 33/1, One win from 27 Flat runs. Visored first time, respectable seventh of 12 in handicap (8/1) at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 50 days ago, never nearer. Close fourth in this race last year but subsequent form is substandard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (11/1 -69%) Ajrad |
11/1(-69%) | (3) Ajrad 11/1, C&D winner. 16/1, sixth of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, heavy) 10 days ago. Defied a 5lb higher mark over C&D last November; great chance if back to that form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (0.83/1 +53%) Embarked |
0.83/1(+53%) | (2) Embarked 0.83/1, Improved on recent efforts to win 8-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (7f, evens) 21 days ago, well on top finish. A 4 lb rise doesn't look enough to stop him going in again. Opened his account at Wolverhampton three weeks ago; still unexposed on AW; respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (40/1 -82%) Mount Mogan |
40/1(-82%) | (4) Mount Mogan 40/1, C&D winner. Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. Fifth of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, good to soft, 16/1) 15 days ago. Others more persuasive. Inconsistent since winning over C&D in early 2022. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (6) (40/1 -300%) Copper Mountain |
40/1(-300%) | (6) Copper Mountain 40/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Visored first time, ninth of 13 in handicap at Yarmouth (1m, good, 22/1) 34 days ago. Far from consistent this year but shaped well on last AW attempt. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (9) (150/1 -200%) Bonnie Blandford |
150/1(-200%) | (9) Bonnie Blandford 150/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 11 in novice at Salisbury (6f, good, 100/1) 17 days ago. Tongue strap on for first time. Makes handicap debut. Handicap debutante who has decidedly poor claims on her novice form. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
EMBARKED got off the mark at Wolverhampton last month on his third start for James Fanshawe after a couple of promising efforts and a 4lb rise for that success may prove to be lenient, with Hollie Doyle taking over in the saddle. A winner on her last go at this distance and not beaten far over a mile at Kempton since, Purple Poppy looks to be the selection's main danger, along with Chepstow winner Dulcet Spirit.
EMBARKED was quite nicely on top at the finish at Wolverhampton last time and can make light of a 5 lb rise. Fellow last-time-out scorer Dulcet Spirit may give him most to do ahead of Musical Mystery, who has his first outing for a new yard here.
Game mare PURPLE POPPY holds solid claims on 2023 form. Embarked is feared most.

Bespoke |
(3) (40/1 -233%)40/1(-233%) | (3) Bespoke 40/1, Once-raced maiden. 11/1, tenth of 12 in maiden at Catterick (5f, good to firm) on debut 34 days ago. Work to do. Achieved little at Catterick but this scenario may suit; out of 5f AW winner. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (4) (2.5/1 -25%) Hot Front |
2.5/1(-25%) | (4) Hot Front 2.5/1, Produced a promising first effort when second in Wetherby maiden in June. Outclassed in Queen Mary Stakes at Royal Ascot subsequently but posted good third of 8 at Windsor (5.1f, good) last time and holds leading claims here. Placed a couple of times; could well have an ordinary race in her; respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (8.5/1 -70%) Leaves Of Grass |
8.5/1(-70%) | (6) Leaves Of Grass 8.5/1, Twice-raced maiden. 9/1, fifth of 10 in minor event at Windsor (6f, good) 17 days ago. Further improvement may be forthcoming. Has shown ability while shaping as if this drop to 5f will suit; interesting. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (1/1 +70%) Princess Chizara |
1/1(+70%) | (1) Princess Chizara 1/1, Defied big odds to win 4-runner maiden at Brighton (5.3f, firm) on debut in June. Struggled in Queen Mary next time and weakened quickly on heavy ground at Goodwood latest but better expected here. Hammered her three rivals at Brighton; stiffer tasks at major festivals since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (10/1 -11%) Sea Of Angels |
10/1(-11%) | (7) Sea Of Angels 10/1, Foaled February 15. 20,000 gns yearling, 30,000 gns 2-y-o, Harry Angel filly. Dam maiden (stayed 7.5f). Market check advised on debut. 30,000gns 2yo; by Harry Angel; sole newcomer in the field; market instructive. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (11/1 -10%) Alnoory Star |
11/1(-10%) | (2) Alnoory Star 11/1, Twice-raced maiden. 14/1, fourth of 6 in maiden at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) 53 days ago. Drops back to minimum trip and not discounted, Has ability but it's not clear whether she'll improve for this drop to 5f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (22/1 -100%) Lady Showcasing |
22/1(-100%) | (5) Lady Showcasing 22/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 8 in minor event (13/2) at Hamilton (5f, good to firm) 55 days ago. Needs to bounce back on polytrack debut. Possibly isn't progressing but this return to AW may help. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
This can go the way of HOT FRONT, who has shown more than enough in three career outings to suggest that she can get off the mark on this occasion. Not beaten far at Windsor last time out, the daughter of Soldier's Call is preferred to the likes of Alnoory Star, who could be well suited by dropping back in trip. and debut winner Princess Chizara.
HOT FRONT got back on track behind a couple of colts at Windsor last time and is taken to open her account. Princess Chizara and Leaves of Grass rate the principal dangers.
Marginal preference is for HOT FRONT, ahead of Princess Chizara.

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (1) (4.5/1 -13%) Onight |
4.5/1(-13%) | (1) Onight 4.5/1, Won 2 AW novices in the spring. Creditable sixth of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford (7f) 37 days ago. Has come up short in Class 3 handicaps; this drop back in grade may help. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (5.5/1 -38%) Desert Falcon |
5.5/1(-38%) | (5) Desert Falcon 5.5/1, Progressive, winning a 7f turf maiden here on reappearance and following up in handicap at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) 13 days later. 4 lb rise may not stop him with further progress likely. 2-2 this term; from the Prescott yard and could easily run up a sequence. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (2.25/1 +70%) Resolute Man |
2.25/1(+70%) | (3) Resolute Man 2.25/1, Fairly useful form. Won on Yarmouth debut last autumn. Hasn't advanced his form when reaching the frame in 2 novices this season but retains potential now handicapping after a short break. Beaten favourite in both runs this term but may progress now handicapping. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (8.5/1 -89%) Desert Voice |
8.5/1(-89%) | (4) Desert Voice 8.5/1, Promising sort. Won maiden at Yarmouth and handicap at Doncaster (both 7f, good to firm) this summer. Had softish ground as a possible excuse for a lesser run at Newmarket (7f, good to soft) last time. Makes polytrack debut. Can resume her progression. Possibly best to forgive latest effort; may still have more to offer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (5/1 +0%) Nogo's Dream |
5/1(+0%) | (7) Nogo's Dream 5/1, Possibly not straightforward but largely consistent, running with credit again when second of 6 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good) 17 days ago. More exposed than some of these rivals but arrives in form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (6/1 -33%) Restrict |
6/1(-33%) | (6) Restrict 6/1, Won a 6f Wolverhampton maiden and 7f Kempton handicap in March. Likely capable of better again back from a 139-day break (has had wind surgery). Progressive sort; major player if returning from layoff in good order. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (8) (20/1 -11%) Grenham Bay |
20/1(-11%) | (8) Grenham Bay 20/1, Latest win at Salisbury in May. Sixth of 9 in handicap at Ascot (7f, good to soft, 8/1) 18 days ago. Others more persuasive. Two 6f wins in the spring; no further progress since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (33/1 -106%) Al Khazneh |
33/1(-106%) | (2) Al Khazneh 33/1, Last of 7 in handicap at Sandown (9f, good to firm, 16/1) 59 days ago. Back down in trip. Cheekpieces back on. Something to find on form. Record stands at just 1-11 and others are less exposed. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
The William Haggas stable can do little wrong at present and DESERT VOICE looks just the type to bounce back from a disappointing effort at Newmarket last month. Returning to better ground is major plus this time around, and the daughter of Invincible Spirit may have too much for the hat-trick-seeking Desert Falcon, as well as the largely unexposed Resolute Man. Nogo's Dream and Restrict cannot be ruled out either.
An interesting 3-y-o handicap. DESERT FALCON should have more to come and can complete the hat-trick but there are a few dangers, headed by Desert Voice and Restrict.
Prescott improvers often run up a sequence and therefore it's worth sticking with DESERT FALCON (nap). Restrict is feared most.

1st (2) (0.14/1 +53%) Elnajmm |
0.14/1(+53%) | (2) Elnajmm 0.14/1, Promising sort who has come close in both starts this season, latest when second of 11 in minor event at Newmarket (8f, good) 25 days ago. The one to beat. Has gone close in both runs this term; sets the standard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (6.5/1 -30%) Liseo |
6.5/1(-30%) | (1) Liseo 6.5/1, Fairly useful gelding. Remains a maiden after 10 Flat runs. 6/1, creditable second of 5 in handicap at Epsom (10.1f, good to soft) 12 days ago. Should give another good account. Exposed but consistent; likely to perform well again. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (14/1 -17%) Walderstern |
14/1(-17%) | (4) Walderstern 14/1, 320,000 gns yearling, Sea The Stars gelding. Half-brother to 1m winner Waldlowe and useful winner up to 1m Wanees. Interesting newcomer. 320,000gns yearling; by Sea The Stars; interesting newcomer. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Denied by the narrowest of margins over a mile at Newmarket last month, this represents a good opportunity for ELNAJMM to break his maiden tag. The fact that William Haggas' inmate has filled the runner-up spot on all three career starts suggests he can be firmly in the picture here and he is taken to get the better of Quietness, who finished a decent second over C&D on her racecourse bow in May. Liseo is another to bear in mind.
This looks good for ELNAJMM, who has hit the crossbar in both starts this season and remains with potential. Quietness gets the nod for the forecast.
Triple silver medallist ELNAJMM is top on bare figures and taken to go one better. Quietness is feared most.

1st (4) (4.5/1 +44%) Kentucky Kingdom |
4.5/1(+44%) | (4) Kentucky Kingdom 4.5/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. 5/1, good fourth of 9 in handicap at this course (11.5f, good to soft) 15 days ago. All wins on AW but ran well in turf event here two weeks ago; in the mix. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (3/1 +14%) Angel Of Peace |
3/1(+14%) | (6) Angel Of Peace 3/1, Creditable third of 13 in handicap (5/2) at Bath (1¼m, good to soft) 20 days ago. Should go well again. Engaged 7.30 Windsor Monday. In-form 3yo maiden who gives the impression there's a race of this nature in her. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (6.5/1 -44%) Billaki Mou |
6.5/1(-44%) | (8) Billaki Mou 6.5/1, 11/2, creditable second of 13 in handicap at Bath (1¼m, good to soft) 20 days ago. One to consider. Has form figures of 232 in his turf attempts since wearing visor; shortlisted. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (11/1 -47%) Quoteline Direct |
11/1(-47%) | (5) Quoteline Direct 11/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Good second of 12 in handicap (25/1) at Newcastle (1¼m) 55 days ago. Veteran who retains ability but hasn't scored on turf for five years. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (22/1 -10%) Pysanka |
22/1(-10%) | (1) Pysanka 22/1, Below form seventh of 13 in handicap (25/1) at Windsor (1m, good) 22 days ago. Up in trip. Bounce back needed. Chance partly depends on whether he improves for the new trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (5/1 +38%) Lisdarragh |
5/1(+38%) | (3) Lisdarragh 5/1, Well held on AW here last time but claims on his second here (AW again) prior to that. Remains on a workable mark and has Hollie Doyle up for first time; respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (2.75/1 +21%) Calcutta Dream |
2.75/1(+21%) | (2) Calcutta Dream 2.75/1, Dual AW winner in January. Good second of 9 in handicap at Yarmouth (1¼m. good) 34 days ago, never nearer. Has to be taken seriously. 0-9 on turf but ran well at Yarmouth most recently; possibilities off same mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (33/1 -136%) No Such Luck |
33/1(-136%) | (7) No Such Luck 33/1, Modest performer. Well below best when eighth of 10 in classified event at Brighton (1¼m, good, 15/2) 6 days ago. Has failed to back up Windsor effort; not solid. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Quoteline Direct has been knocking on the door of late and the fact Aiden Brookes knocks 5lb off his back here makes him of additional interest, but CALCUTTA DREAM gets the vote. He did well to finish second over this distance at Yarmouth last month and, although he loses Adam Farragher's 3lb claim, must enter calculations if getting away on level terms here. Billaki Mou completes the shortlist.
A repeat of the form CALCUTTA DREAM showed when second at Yarmouth last time might be enough to see him go one better this time. Fellow northern raider Quoteline Direct can fill the forecast spot ahead of George Baker's Billaki Mou.
Off a workable mark and with Hollie Doyle on board, LISDARRAGH may be the answer. Billaki Mou is second choice.

1st (2) (4/1 +20%) Asense |
4/1(+20%) | (2) Asense 4/1, Modest maiden. Creditable third of 15 in classified event at Windsor (11.5f, good to firm, 9/1) 57 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Likely to be in the shake-up. Still a maiden but gives the impression this new trip will suit. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (6.5/1 +28%) Mellow Mood |
6.5/1(+28%) | (8) Mellow Mood 6.5/1, Modest form. Only ninth of 13 in handicap at Bath (11.5f, good) 11 days ago but claims if back to the form she showed when second on C&D reappearance Looks held by Manyana on Chepstow running. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (2.75/1 +50%) Manyana |
2.75/1(+50%) | (5) Manyana 2.75/1, Modest filly. 6/1, creditable second of 10 in classified event at Chepstow (1½m, good to soft) 36 days ago, clear of rest. Inconsistent maiden but latest effort puts her in the picture. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (2/1 +0%) Iconic Mover |
2/1(+0%) | (4) Iconic Mover 2/1, Modest gelding. 9/2, creditable second of 11 in handicap at Epsom (1½m, good) 41 days ago. Enters calculations. Maiden whose turn seems near; solid second in three handicaps this summer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (20/1 -43%) The Resdev Way |
20/1(-43%) | (6) The Resdev Way 20/1, Eighteen runs since last win in 2022. 28/1, creditable fourth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (1¾m) 11 days ago. Veteran who has proved inconsistent this year. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (9/1 -157%) All About Alice |
9/1(-157%) | (1) All About Alice 9/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2022. Respectable fifth of 8 in handicap at Leicester (1½m, good, 4/1) 47 days ago. Not long with this yard. Likely to go well. 0-5 on turf but this slight step back up in distance looks a plus. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (50/1 -127%) Divination |
50/1(-127%) | (3) Divination 50/1, Modest maiden. 66/1, remote fifth of 12 in handicap at Kempton (2m) 48 days ago. Yet to make the frame; others preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (18/1 +45%) Bridle Beauty |
18/1(+45%) | (7) Bridle Beauty 18/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 80/1, sixth of 8 in novice at Wolverhampton (1½m) in April. Off 126 days. First run for yard after leaving David Evans. Tongue strap on first time. One to note in the betting. Soundly beaten in three AW races for David Evans; drops in class. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Runner-up on his last three starts, ICONIC MOVER deserves a change in luck and this looks like an ideal opportunity to finally get off the mark at the 16th time of asking. The step up in trip is a major plus, and the five-year-old is narrowly preferred to All About Alice, who has been finding her way since joining new connections, and the capable Manyana.
ALL ABOUT ALICE was back on form at the second time of asking for new trainer Dylan Cunha when fifth in a Leicester handicap last time and might prove the answer to this concluding classified stakes. Iconic Mover, Manyana and Asense are others to consider.
The main contenders on recent form are still maidens after numerous attempts. Tentative preference is for ICONIC MOVER.

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.
