1st (1)  (6/1 +0%)Tessy Lad |
6/1(+0%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Tessy Lad 6/1, C&D winner who shaped as if better for the run after 5 months when seventh of 10 in handicap at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) 24 days ago. Can take a step forward. Fruitful 2022 Flat campaign at 1m2f-1m4f included C&D win; not disgraced on return to Flat. |
|||
1st (7)  (10/1 +38%)Lenny's Spirit |
10/1(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Lenny's Spirit 10/1, Won 3 times last year but only eighth of 12 to Mabre in 1m handicap here 27 days ago. Sort to bounce back stepped up in trip. Well handicapped judged on form last June/July on good to firm over about 1m; yard in form. |
|||
3rd (3)  (4.5/1 +50%)Dark Island |
4.5/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Dark Island 4.5/1, Ended last year below par but he resumed with a creditable fifth of 12 in handicap at Sandown (10f, good) 21 days ago. One for the shortlist. 1m3f AW win last September; easily best effort since when 5th of 12 last time (1m2f, good). |
|||
4th (11)  (7/1 +56%)Luna Magic |
7/1(+56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Luna Magic 7/1, Dual 7f/1m scorer last season who returned with a solid third of 10 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f). Off 148 days and not discounted reverted in distance. Two wins 2022; has won up to 1m1f and runner-up four times at 1m2f; well-handicapped 9yo. |
|||
5th (4)  (9/1 -20%)Mabre |
9/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Mabre 9/1, Bagged his third win of 2023 in 1m handicap at Newbury in May before posting a solid second of 8 at Bath 20 days ago. Another bold showing is on the cards now stepping up in trip. In-form 6yo but, from 58 races, he's only twice been tried over this far. |
|||
6th (13)  (16/1 +20%)Fillyfudge |
16/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Fillyfudge 16/1, Off 6 months before posting a good third of 10 in handicap at Yarmouth (8f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Back up in trip and needs considering in her bid for a breakthrough success. 0-8; best efforts when placed at Yarmouth over 1m2f (October) and 1m (two weeks ago). |
|||
7th (8)  (12/1 +14%)Ermin Street |
12/1(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Ermin Street 12/1, Arrives in decent nick, fourth of 8 in 1m handicap at Bath 20 days ago. Proven over this longer trip. Enters calculations off a 2 lb lower mark. Edging down the weights and showed he stays 1m2f on penultimate start; considered each-way. |
|||
8th (9)  (22/1 +21%)Gavi Di Gavi |
22/1(+21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Gavi Di Gavi 22/1, Resumed winning ways at Wolverhampton in February but only seventh of 9 in handicap there (9.5f) 80 days ago. Others are more persuasive. 0-8 on turf but placed twice, 2nd under Georgia King last July; unraced over this far. |
|||
9th (6)  (14/1 -17%)King's Castle |
14/1(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) King's Castle 14/1, Won this event 12 months ago when with Joseph Tuite. Largely in good form since, including over hurdles for his current yard. Merits consideration in a first-time tongue strap. 2-23 on Flat but latest was a division of this race (good to soft; off 3lb lower) in 2022. |
|||
10th (10)  (7/1 +0%)Point Louise |
7/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Point Louise 7/1, First run since leaving Harry Dunlop when winning 8.5f handicap at Wolverhampton 7 months ago. Not taken lightly on her return with yard going well. Won in November on sole run for new connections; stays 1m2f and no ground problems. |
|||
11th (2)  (4.5/1 +18%)Tele Red |
4.5/1(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Tele Red 4.5/1, Arrives in good nick, third of 7 in handicap at Ripon (9.8f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Can give another good account. Two 1m2f wins last year, with close second over C&D in between; placed on latest two runs. |
|||
12th (12)  (50/1 +0%)Satellite Call |
50/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Satellite Call 50/1, Comes here below par, last of 14 in handicap at Bath (10.2f, soft) 45 days ago. Has something to find on form. 0-10; didn't shine in AW campaign last winter and tailed off back on turf on latest outing. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
MRS MEADER wasn't disgraced last time at Windsor when she finished third by just under six lengths, and she has been dropped 1lb in the weights for that effort which puts her just 3lb higher than when she won this race easily last year. Therefore, she could be feasibly treated. Mabre filled the runner-up spot last time over a mile and looks an interesting contender going back up in distance, while Fillyfudge is also of interest.
MABRE is enjoying an excellent season yet still features on a good mark so can garner win number four of 2023 at the chief expense of 2021 victor Mrs Meader who seems primed for another bold showing. The returning Point Louise, last year's winner King's Castle and C&D winner Tessy Lad complete the shortlist in a very open handicap.
Plenty have possibilities but the best four options may be MRS MEADER, Tessy Lad, Point Louise and Luna Magic.

1st (3)  (3.5/1 +22%)Iberian |
3.5/1(+22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Iberian 3.5/1, Foaled February 15. 200,000 gns yearling, Lope De Vega colt. Dam, 1m winner, sister to very smart winner up to 1½m High Heeled, third in Oaks, a very good family. Plenty of appeal on paper. 200,000gns yearling from a fine family; may need further but check the market. |
|||
2nd (5)  (33/1 -18%)Judge Frank |
33/1(-18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Judge Frank 33/1, Foaled March 2. 16,000 gns yearling, Inns of Court colt. Dam unraced half-sister to useful 1m winner (stayed 1¼m) Muhtaram. Yard's only 2-y-o seen out in 2023 was a 150/1-winner second time up here. 16,000gns yearling; unraced dam closely related to Listed-placed 6f/7f winner Volatile. |
|||
3rd (10)  (28/1 -75%)Overlooked |
28/1(-75%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Overlooked 28/1, 100,000 gns foal, Dark Angel colt. Dam, 1m winner, half-sister to very smart winner up to 1m Kinross out of useful winner up to 10.3f (2-y-o 8.3f winner) Ceilidh House. Sixth of 7 in maiden at Chester (6.1f, good, 14/1) on debut 19 days ago. Should improve. Should be all the wiser for making his debut at Chester (6f) but he beat only one home. |
|||
4th (8)  (2.5/1 +9%)Mafnood |
2.5/1(+9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Mafnood 2.5/1, Foaled February 24. Kingman colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including smart winner up to 7.4f Motafaawit and useful 2-y-o 6f/7f winner Tajaanus. Lots to like on paper and yard do well with their youngsters here. Bred to be decidedly smart and appeals as a likely type for this. |
|||
5th (1)  (6.5/1 -44%)Double Jump |
6.5/1(-44%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Double Jump 6.5/1, 90,000 gns foal, 180,000 gns yearling, Dark Angel colt. Closely related to 5f winner Refuge and half-brother to 5f winner True Hero. 17/2, sixth of 11 in novice at Goodwood (6f, good to firm) on debut 20 days ago, looking green. Good vibes for the form of that race and he can do better. Never really sighted with a chance when 17-2 at Goodwood (6f, good). |
|||
6th (4)  (16/1 +11%)Inishfallen |
16/1(+11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Inishfallen 16/1, Foaled April 25. £70,000 yearling, Exceed And Excel colt. Half-brother to 6f winners Alex Gracie and Hurt You Never. Dam, 7.5f-9.2f winner, closely related to smart winner up to 9.5f Move Swiftly. £70,000 yearling; fifth foal; half-brother to a couple of ordinary 6f winners. |
|||
7th (7)  (11/1 +67%)Mad Punter |
11/1(+67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Mad Punter 11/1, Foaled February 8. £58,000 yearling, Expert Eye colt. Dam, maiden (stayed 7f), half-sister to smart winner up to 7f Twilight Blues. £58,000 yearling; dam maiden 6f-1m; looks stable second string on jockey bookings. |
|||
8th (11)  (50/1 +50%)Time Signature |
50/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Time Signature 50/1, Well held in C&D/Windsor events. Well down the field in both his starts (over 6f) and looks one for nurseries. |
|||
9th (12)  (8.5/1 -55%)Treasure Time |
8.5/1(-55%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Treasure Time 8.5/1, Foaled February 18. 80,000 gns yearling, Time Test colt. Half-brother to several winners, including 5f winner Equality and 5f-7f winner Badri, both smart, and useful winner up to 7.6f Outgate. Dam 6f winner. 1 of 2 interesting newcomers for top yard. 80,000gns yearling; market can guide on debut for top yard. |
|||
10th (14)  (25/1 -127%)Marcella |
25/1(-127%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Marcella 25/1, Foaled February 13. €58,000 yearling, Areion filly. Dam unraced half-sister to smart winner up to 1m Meerjungfrau. Can't be discounted on debut for good yard but starts out against the colts and will need to be right on her game. 58,000euros yearling; well related; major stable; betting informative. |
|||
11th (2)  (10/1 -11%)Enpassant |
10/1(-11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Enpassant 10/1, Foaled March 18. €44,000 yearling, 160,000 gns 2-y-o, Starspangledbanner colt. Half-brother to several winners, including winner up to 1½m House of Kings and 2-y-o 7f winner One Last Look. Fetched a bit at the Breeze-Ups and he's one to note. 160,000gns breeze-up buy; stable not noted for debut 2yo winners but he's interesting. |
|||
12th (9)  (12/1 +40%)Metallo |
12/1(+40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Metallo 12/1, Foaled February 9. €65,000 yearling, Caravaggio colt. Half-brother to several winners, including winner up to 9f Rusper and winner up to 8.3f Roxy Star, both useful. Dam unraced. One to keep an eye on. 65,000euros yearling; will stay further and perhaps vulnerable to sharper types. |
|||
13th (6)  (22/1 -38%)Laabbij |
22/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Laabbij 22/1, Foaled February 14. €62,000 foal, 110,000 gns yearling, Acclamation colt. Dam unraced half-sister to useful French winner up to 1m Sceptre Rouge out of useful French 1m winner Marque Royale. 110,000gns yearling; sire an influence for speed; market can guide as to expectations. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
MAFNOOD is related to a few winners, including being a half-brother to Tajaanus, who was also trained by Richard Hannon and struck on his debut. The son of Kingman can show enough speed to make his first start a winning one. Treasure Time is another newcomer to note, as he has more than enough speed in his pedigree to suggest he can be a player. Double Jump has the benefit of experience, having contested a warm 6f race at Goodwood, and he could put that to good use.
Usually a very informative 2-y-o contest and the newcomers can come to the fore, with MAFNOOD, Enpassant and Iberian put up before market clues. Double Jump is the clear pick of those with experience.
This looks booked for a newcomer. MAFNOOD makes plenty of appeal on paper. Treasure Time is next best.

1st (4)  (5.5/1 +54%)Back See Daa |
5.5/1(+54%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Back See Daa 5.5/1, Close second on Newcastle's AW last November and showed improved form when repeating the feat on her 7f Doncaster reappearance 12 days ago. Thereabouts. Beaten by a newcomer at Doncaster and probably tackling classier opposition now. |
|||
2nd (2)  (7/1 +36%)Sea Of Thieves |
7/1(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Sea Of Thieves 7/1, Left last year's debut behind when springing a 66/1 surprise in 7f Haydock novice on reappearance 3 weeks ago. May do better again but a good deal more will be required to defy a penalty in this line-up. Looked nice in winning at Haydock but a penalty asks plenty of her this time. |
|||
3rd (11)  (2/1 +64%)Satirical |
2/1(+64%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Satirical 2/1, Kingman filly who went off at 8/11 but was just denied on her Haydock debut last May. Not seen again until seventh of 13 at Doncaster in the autumn, travelling before tiring on testing ground. Remains capable of better and Frankie Dettori's only ride on the card. Soft ground perhaps to blame for second run having shaped well on good-ground debut. |
|||
4th (13)  (14/1 +0%)Tajalat |
14/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Tajalat 14/1, Useful pedigree but achieved no more than fair form when third in 2 outings over 7f last month. Early days but more will be needed here. Open to further progress but this might be a shade tough for her. |
|||
5th (14)  (11/1 -29%)Value Added |
11/1(-29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Value Added 11/1, Plenty to like about her C&D debut second on heavy ground last backend, travelling powerfully before lack of experience found her out. Withdrawn after breaking out of the stalls on her intended reappearance in May. Definitely more to come. Runner-up on heavy here last season, shaping well; did hold an Oaks entry. |
|||
6th (3)  (33/1 +50%)Avon Light |
33/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Avon Light 33/1, Lightning Spear filly. Closely related to 7f-9.5f winner King of Naples and half-sister to several winners, including useful winner up to 1¼m Drochaid. Will need to be very useful to make a winning debut here. Well bred but needs to be smart to defy her lack of experience. |
|||
7th (6)  (8/1 +33%)Classic Times |
8/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Classic Times 8/1, Sister to very smart winner up to 8.5f Newspaperofrecord and half-sister to smart 6f winner Classical Times. David Egan on stable's other runner but she catches the eye on pedigree and needs a betting check. Plenty to like on paper and from a strong stable so needs a market check. |
|||
8th (12)  (66/1 +56%)Showy |
66/1(+56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Showy 66/1, More one for the longer term judged on her 1¼m course debut in April. Allowed to go off at 150-1 for her debut here in April (1m2f, soft) and ran accordingly. |
|||
9th (5)  (66/1 +0%)Beach Kitty |
66/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Beach Kitty 66/1, Very green but ultimately caught the eye when ninth of 14 on her 1m Haydock debut 3 weeks ago, finishing with running left after being badly hampered over 1f out. Capable of better but this looks a warm race. Outpaced from an early stage when ninth at Haydock (1m, good to firm). |
|||
10th (10)  (6/1 +57%)Sanction |
6/1(+57%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Sanction 6/1, Camelot half-sister to very smart 6f and winner Sense of Duty. Dam 1m winner. Interesting newcomer. Excellent pedigree and in top hands, but lack of experience may hold her back. |
|||
11th (9)  (25/1 +62%)Fox Island |
25/1(+62%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Fox Island 25/1, Fair fourth in fast-ground maidens at Leicester (6f) and Nottingham (1m) last summer. Improvement will be needed on this return to action. Probably best watched with a view to when she enters handicaps. |
|||
12th (15)  (12/1 +14%)Without Remorse |
12/1(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (15) Without Remorse 12/1, Make Believe filly. Sister to smart winner up to 1m Tammani and half-sister to 1¼m winner Meadow Creek and winner up to 7f Solomon's Bay, both smart. Dam 1½m winner. It'll be interesting to see how much strength there is behind her in the betting. Related to some smart types; top connections and market informative. |
|||
13th (8)  (100/1 -52%)Fast Affair |
100/1(-52%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Fast Affair 100/1, More one for handicaps based on her 2 outings over 1m 6 months apart. Well held in a pair of 1m novices and has loads to find in this company. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
LOSE YOURSELF sets a very high standard for this contest with a rating of 101, after she was only beaten a head in the Oh So Sharp Stakes at Newmarket when last seen in October. She could have way too much class for these and it's highly likely this will be a stepping stone to better things. Value Added shaped very well on debut when only touched off by a neck and should have much more to come, while Satirical may appreciate the return to a better surface.
LOSE YOURSELF sets a very useful standard and has to be the call. Satirical drew a blank in 2 outings last year but the fact she went off at short odds on her debut suggests she's well regarded and it's potentially significant that Frankie Dettori comes across for the ride. Value Added should have more to offer on the back of her promising C&D debut second last autumn, while Sanction and Without Remorse are newcomers to monitor in the betting.
For all that there's some nice potential on display, LOSE YOURSELF sets the bar intimidatingly high on her Group-placed form.

1st (3)  (11/1 +31%)Chealamy |
11/1(+31%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Chealamy 11/1, Shaped well all 3 starts at 2 yrs and again when runner-up on return/handicap debut at Southwell (1m). Possibly didn't stay 1¼m in Haydock maiden won by the potentially very smart Al Asifah (listed winner since) and worth a second look back down in trip/returned to handicap company. Reasonable to forgive her two defeats since finishing second in an AW handicap. |
|||
2nd (1)  (28/1 -75%)Natzor |
28/1(-75%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Natzor 28/1, Promising third in an 11-runner Newcastle novice (1m) on debut in March. Possibly unsuited by testing conditions both starts since at around 1¼m and worth another chance back down in trip on better ground for this handicap bow. Gelded. Decent debut on the AW and subsequent defeats have come on soft turf (over 1m2f). |
|||
3rd (11)  (25/1 -14%)Outgun |
25/1(-14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Outgun 25/1, Positives to glean from his 3 starts on the AW last year and it's likely that he'll be seen in a better light now venturing down the handicap route, albeit this particular race looks competitive. Others preferred on this occasion. Open to improvement now handicapping on the turf but this initial mark is hardly a gift. |
|||
4th (12)  (8/1 +27%)Johnjay |
8/1(+27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Johnjay 8/1, Gelded during the winter and improved when making a winning handicap for new yard at Bath in April. Appeared to find 1¼m on deep ground too much of an ask next time but better when sixth of 13 at Windsor (1m, good to firm) recently and he's not without each-way hope. Gelded, with a new yard and back from a break when winning at Bath; not built on that. |
|||
5th (7)  (10/1 +29%)Forest Demon |
10/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Forest Demon 10/1, Ended 2-y-o campaign on a winning note in a 7f Kempton nursery. Bettered reappearance effort on deep ground when fifth of 9 at Wolverhampton (8.6f) last month but one or two of these make more appeal all the same. Nursery winner last season; can be forgiven his two below-par runs this campaign. |
|||
6th (2)  (1.88/1 +46%)Monopolise |
1.88/1(+46%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Monopolise 1.88/1, Ended 2022 with a pair of nursery wins and hasn't done much wrong in 3 starts this season, most recently finding just one too good in a 14-runner York handicap (7f, good to firm). Winner of that race has gone again since and he's a big player back at 1m off the same mark. Given how he finished last time at York, returning to 1m looks a bonus. |
|||
7th (4)  (20/1 -11%)Lunarscape |
20/1(-11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Lunarscape 20/1, Winner of 6f Goodwood novice on second of her 3 starts as a 2-y-o, and reappearance second in a Windsor handicap represented a step forward. Perhaps the race came too soon back at Goodwood a couple of weeks later and she remains of interest. Lost a shoe at Goodwood last time but that effort still raises some doubts. |
|||
8th (10)  (7/1 -75%)Inverlochy |
7/1(-75%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Inverlochy 7/1, Promising fourth in the Newmarket novice won by none other than Mawj on sole 2-y-o start. Reappearance effort on the AW was encouraging and while she failed to build on that at Carlisle (7f, good) next time, there could be better to come now upped to 1m for this handicap debut. There was no improvement in her latest third and bit to prove now handicapping. |
|||
9th (8)  (10/1 +9%)Gold As Glass |
10/1(+9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Gold As Glass 10/1, Successful sole start at 2 yrs in 7f Newmarket novice and shaped as though in need of the run when fourth on return at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in April. Needs to raise her game now handicapping but it's entirely possible that she will do just that. Not strong races in which he's finished first and fourth; handicap debut. |
|||
10th (13)  (25/1 -108%)Believe You Me |
25/1(-108%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Believe You Me 25/1, Showed a bit in a couple of Kempton maidens towards the end of 2022, and small step forward in first-time cheekpieces (retained) when fifth on return in 7f novice here (good) last month. More needed now pitched into a handicap. Seemingly better for cheekpieces when a never-dangerous fifth in a 7f maiden here. |
|||
11th (5)  (10/1 -122%)Achillea |
10/1(-122%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Achillea 10/1, Signs of ability on first of her 2 starts as a juvenile and improved when third to a pair of promising Godolphin fillies on return at Newmarket (7f, good) last month. Further progress could be on the cards now moving up in trip for this handicap debut. It wasn't a bad maiden in which she ran third at Newmarket; considered. |
|||
12th (14)  (14/1 -17%)Italian Magic |
14/1(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Italian Magic 14/1, Encouraging signs on his introduction at Nottingham in April and, though safely held both subsequent starts, he appears to have been brought along with handicaps in mind. Not discounted with start apprentice Billy Loughnane booked. Not progressed from an okay debut and this is no easy start to handicap career. |
|||
13th (9)  (14/1 +44%)Garrick Street |
14/1(+44%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Garrick Street 14/1, Related to numerous winners and made the frame on each of his 3 starts on the AW during the winter. However, he was out with the washing tackling turf for the first time on handicap debut at Sandown (1m, good) and needs to get back on track here. Easy to back ahead of his handicap debut at Sandown and ran no race at all. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
MONOPOLISE has the best form on offer and jointly sets a reasonable standard for the rest to aim at. This marks a slight drop in class for the three-year-old after his highly commendable second in a 14-runner handicap at York last moth, form which was boosted by the winner brushing aside an 84-rated rival on his next start. The unexposed Achillea is the main danger as she enters handicaps for the first time on a workable mark. Inverlochy completes the shortlist.
This looks very competitive and the suggestion is MONOPOLISE, who chased home the progressive Starnberg at York recently, form which the winner boosted when following up in good style at Nottingham last week. Achillea shouldn't be underestimated and is next on the list ahead of Chealamy, Inverlochy and Johnjay.
This looks very open. ACHILLEA is worth chancing on her handicap debut after surpassing market expectations in a Newmarket maiden.

1st (9)  (9/1 -29%)Flying Secret |
9/1(-29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Flying Secret 9/1, Stripped fitter for reappearance and produced an improved showing to score at Yarmouth last time. Promising apprentice takes 7 lb off, so he's worthy of consideration. Off mark at the 11th attempt when winning in Class 5 latest (good time); this is tougher. |
|||
2nd (1)  (6/1 +33%)Popmaster |
6/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Popmaster 6/1, Went without a win in 2022 but he posted some good efforts, notably when runner-up in the Wokingham at the Royal Meeting. Yet to fire this term but becoming well treated. 2nd in 2022 Wokingham off 8lb higher; nothing has gone right this year; stamina query. |
|||
3rd (10)  (9/1 +36%)King Cabo |
9/1(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) King Cabo 9/1, 11/2, career best when winning 7-runner handicap at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) 16 days ago, outbattling runner-up. Faces a much stiffer assignment back on turf in a more competitive race. Game winner at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) last month; up two grades and vulnerable. |
|||
4th (6)  (4.5/1 +10%)Persuasion |
4.5/1(+10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Persuasion 4.5/1, Is a long time without a win and needs things to drop right. He's on a feasible mark, however, and his recent third at Haydock was encouraging. Yet to win for this yard but usually runs well, including all 3 turf runs in 2023; claims. |
|||
5th (2)  (12/1 -71%)Lyndon B |
12/1(-71%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Lyndon B 12/1, Ended last year in top form and shaped as if he'd come on for his reappearance at Goodwood. Should be spot on now, so can't be discounted. 2nd of 19 over C&D on final run last year; should come on for recent return; respected. |
|||
6th (4)  (3.5/1 +42%)Mister Bluebird |
3.5/1(+42%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Mister Bluebird 3.5/1, Likeable type who picked up his first win of this campaign in typically straightforward style at Goodwood 4 days ago. Should go well under a penalty if the race doesn't come too soon. Got up late to win at Goodwood on Sunday; penalised but still unexposed over 7f. |
|||
7th (11)  (50/1 -67%)Kimifive |
50/1(-67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Kimifive 50/1, Gained his first win in over 3 years at Epsom in August and ran to a similar level when second at Carlisle on next start. Struggled in stronger race at Ascot on final outing and best watched after 8 months off. Ended long losing run at Epsom last summer; absent since a poor run 258 days ago. |
|||
8th (3)  (5/1 +23%)Top Secret |
5/1(+23%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Top Secret 5/1, Completed a double at Kempton towards the end of last season and returned to action with a creditable second here last month. Drop to 7f is no issue and he's likely to be on the premises. Ended 2022 on the up and ran well in a good 1m handicap here on his return; in the mix. |
|||
9th (5)  (8/1 +27%)Able Kane |
8/1(+27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Able Kane 8/1, Ended 2022 below par and yet to hit top form so far this term, although there was more encouragement at Goodwood last time. Not completely dismissed. Best run of the year when 4th at Goodwood three weeks ago; good mark on 2022 best. |
|||
10th (12)  (12/1 +45%)Sergeant Tibbs |
12/1(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Sergeant Tibbs 12/1, Course winner who wasn't disgraced when fourth here 8 days ago. Tends to struggle in this grade of handicap, though. Running well in defeat for his new yard but stepping back up to 7f not enough to tempt. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Mister Bluebird is highly regarded after his game effort to win at Goodwood on Sunday, but a 5lb penalty demands more of him and only a personal best will suffice. With that in mind, it might pay to focus more attention on PERSUASION, who runs off 7lb lower than his last winning mark and, given William Buick was in the saddle for that success, the jockey booking suggests connections are confident of another big run. Able Kane, Flying Secret and King Cabo also warrant respect.
HICKORY boasted a progressive profile prior to a minor blip at Kempton last time, so he's fancied to resume winning ways returning to turf. Mister Bluebird is an obvious danger following his win at Goodwood and Persuasion could make his presence felt if the race is run to suit.
Top Secret ran well here on his reappearance but LYNDON B can step forward from last month's return to action at Goodwood.

1st (7)  (9/1 -80%)Treacherous |
9/1(-80%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Treacherous 9/1, Ended lengthy losing run under a cool ride at Wolverhampton in December, suited by way the race developed. Stepped up on on his reappearance when fifth behind Showbiz at this C&D last month and he can give another good account. Multiple winner who likes to arrive late on the scene; ran okay behind Shobiz latest. |
|||
2nd (2)  (1/1 +0%)Shobiz |
1/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Shobiz 1/1, After 11 months off, ran creditably when third at Goodwood in May and took a step forward when returning to winning ways in 18-runner contest at this C&D 15 days later. Displayed a willing attitude with William Buick back on board last time, so he looks to hold leading claims. Uncomplicated ride who was always up in the van before running out a 1l winner over C&D. |
|||
3rd (6)  (4.5/1 +40%)Capote's Dream |
4.5/1(+40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Capote's Dream 4.5/1, Prolific in 2021 but failed to add to his tally in handicaps last year. Returned in good heart this season, making the frame on his first 2 starts before not ideally placed when mid-field at this C&D last month. Could bounce back in first-time tongue strap. Behind Shobiz in last two races and first-time tongue-tie will need to make a difference. |
|||
4th (1)  (11/1 +21%)American Star |
11/1(+21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) American Star 11/1, Reached a useful level when winning twice at 2 yrs. However, after a further 9 months off has struggled for form in handicaps this year, faring no better in first-time blinkers on his latest outing. Has enough to prove at present. Hasn't offered a great deal in three handicaps at Kempton since returning. |
|||
5th (9)  (10/1 +29%)Strike |
10/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Strike 10/1, Took advantage of a falling mark when opening his account in a Newmarket handicap (6f) last August and ran well when third at Kempton (7f) on his next outing. Probably needed the run after 6-month absence back at Kempton last time, but off a further 2 months since. Only 1-15 but on a useful mark and didn't run badly from a wide draw on AW return. |
|||
6th (8)  (40/1 -82%)Sarah's Verse |
40/1(-82%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Sarah's Verse 40/1, Having dropped below her last winning mark, bounced back to form when recording a fourth course success at Bath (5f) in April, albeit having a perfect trip along the inside rail. Has been below that level all 3 starts since, so may just find others stronger. Has looked high in the weights since winning valuable 5f handicap at Bath (soft) in April. |
|||
7th (5)  (5/1 +17%)Magnificence |
5/1(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Magnificence 5/1, Had little recent form to her name but bounced back to near her best when runner-up at Haydock 6 days ago, promising better still for much of the way. On a workable mark and she's respected with a good-value claimer on board. 2lb well-in after her Haydock second but looks vulnerable for win purposes. |
|||
8th (4)  (40/1 -43%)Dakota Power |
40/1(-43%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Dakota Power 40/1, Off the mark at the second attempt in a Wolverhampton minor event (6f) back in October 2021. Progressed again when third back at the same C&D next time, but tailed off when last seen in December of that year. Off 18 months ahead of his turf/handicap debut. Looked a promising type on the AW during second half 2021; gelded during absence. |
|||
9th (3)  (50/1 +0%)Jack's Point |
50/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Jack's Point 50/1, Ended losing run at Lingfield (6f, AW) on second start for Tony Carroll in 2022 but his form has gone the wrong way since, finishing down the field on all 3 outings this year for his current yard. Looks to be up against it. Down to a career-low mark on the back of some uninspiring runs. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Supporters of SHOBIZ will be pleased to see William Buick keeps the ride and a 4lb rise for a staying-on success over C&D last month doesn't look enough to hold him back. The five-year-old can get the better of Magnificence, who lost little in defeat at Haydock last Friday and is taken to go well off the same mark. Strike is now rated just 2lb above his last winning mark and may throw up some each-way value reverting to turf.
SHOBIZ produced his best effort when winning a competitive event at this C&D last month, rallying to lead again close home having had the worst of draw, and the 5-y-o can continue to go the right way for Charles Hills. He can follow up with William Buick again in the saddle, though Magnificence returned to form last time and is feared most, ahead of Treacherous.
The standout contender is SHOBIZ (nap), an uncomplicated sprinter who is still progressing.

0.29/1(+68%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Blindedbythelights 0.29/1, Left previous form well behind when winning 7-runner handicap at Yarmouth (11.5f, good to firm) last week and was better than the bare result when beaten a short odds at Lingfield (12f, AW) 3 days ago, finding trouble at a crucial stage. Has to viewed positively again and will take the beating. Yarmouth winner who didn't look fully at ease on the Lingfield AW three days ago. |
|||
2nd (4)  (7.5/1 +32%)Scintillante |
7.5/1(+32%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Scintillante 7.5/1, Scopey sort who showed ability in a pair of novice events late last year. Spared a hard race when fifth of 8 in maiden at Chester (10.3f, heavy) 36 days ago and he should still have more to offer heading into handicaps. Promise as 2yo; reappearance forgivable; interesting handicap debutant. |
|||
3rd (2)  (8.5/1 -21%)Hedonista |
8.5/1(-21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Hedonista 8.5/1, Built on a promising debut second to win an 8-runner maiden (5/1) at Newcastle (12.4f) 41 days ago. No chances have been taken with her opening mark but she's open to improvement. Newcastle maiden win hasn't worked out but she looks open to any amount of improvement. |
|||
4th (6)  (28/1 +30%)Mirabello Bay |
28/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Mirabello Bay 28/1, Completed quickfire double on AW with victories at Lingfield and Wolverhampton in March but has looked no more than averagely treated returned to turf on his last 2 outings and probably needs a couple of these to falter. Record of 4-8 on the AW; recent turf form is none too inspiring. |
|||
5th (5)  (18/1 -29%)Lexington Hero |
18/1(-29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Lexington Hero 18/1, Easy winner of Wolverhampton seller here (8.6f) on second start and improved for the step up in trip when 2¼ lengths second of 6 to Mirabello Bay in handicap at that course (12.2f) last time. Bit more needed if he's to turn the tables here. No match for Mirabello Boy when last seen but he's armed with a 5lb pull; turf debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
HEDONISTA kept on well to break her maiden tag at the second time of asking over an extended 1m4f at Newcastle last month and the daughter of Ulysses gets the nod. Her dam is a full-sister to Ribblesdale and Lancashire Oaks runner-up Lustrous, so her pedigree suggests she will be able to act on turf and there is likely more to come from Ed Walker's inmate. Scintillante is taken to step forward on his handicap debut, while the improving Blindedbythelights also merits consideration despite getting turned over at cramped odds at Lingfield on Monday.
BLINDEDBYTHELIGHTS suffered a shock defeat at Lingfield earlier in the week but found nothing going his way there and should take plenty of beating turned out again quickly under a penalty. Great Bedwyn ran well in a strong event at York last time and is respected dropping in grade, whilst Scintillante and Hedonista rate as potential improvers on their handicap bows.
It would be unwise to be too negative about BLINDEDBYTHELIGHTS getting turned over at long odds-on the other day.

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.
