1st (7)  (1.62/1 +41%)Flag Of St George |
1.62/1(+41%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Flag Of St George 1.62/1, U S Navy Flag colt who displayed definite promise despite finding things happening a little quickly when fourth in 7-runner novice event here (5f) 4 weeks ago, outpaced halfway but keeping on again final 1f. Step up to 6f will suit and he's another likely improver. Strong possibilities. The form of his debut was franked at Chester last week and 6f looks sure to suit.. |
|||
2nd (12)  (22/1 +56%)Maymay |
22/1(+56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Maymay 22/1, €33,000 yearling, Cloth of Stars filly. 14/1, eighth of 13 in novice event at Goodwood (5f, good to soft) on debut 13 days ago, racing off the pace and making late headway. Entitled to come on for that initial experience but she's best watched here. Related to winners but was soon on the back foot after starting slowly at Goodwood.. |
|||
3rd (4)  (125/1 -279%)States |
125/1(-279%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) States 125/1, Territories colt. Showed some ability when sixth in 8-runner Newbury maiden (5f, heavy) on debut in April and best not judged too harshly on his subsequent Salisbury run (hampered soon after start). This his third quick run and he may do better in handicaps later on. Comfortably held in 5f events at Newbury (soft) and Salisbury (good to soft).. |
|||
4th (13)  (6.5/1 +35%)Mimi Kakushi |
6.5/1(+35%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Mimi Kakushi 6.5/1, Galileo Gold filly. Showed a bit when fifth in 8-runner Bath novice (5f) on debut 4 weeks ago, bumped after 1f and lit up as a result. In good hands and she's entitled to do better with that under her belt. Should improve on his Bath experience but lots more is needed.. |
|||
4th (2)  (16/1 +11%)Centurion Dream |
16/1(+11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Centurion Dream 16/1, Foaled March 14. £50,000 2-y-o, Kodiac colt. Brother to 1m winner Barud and half-brother to several winners, including useful 7f winner Dutch Treat and 2-y-o 5f winner Queen of Deauville. Makes appeal on paper and worth a check in the betting for clues. £50,000 2yo; seventh foal; brother to KSA 1m winner Barud; likely best watched.. |
|||
6th (11)  (100/1 -52%)Diddy Man |
100/1(-52%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Diddy Man 100/1, Foaled March 17. £16,500 yearling, Dandy Man colt. Never figured when seventh in 8-runner Bath maiden (5f, soft) on debut 17 days ago. Down the field at Bath and that run gives him no obvious form claims here.. |
|||
7th (14)  (100/1 -150%)Tokyo Dreamer |
100/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Tokyo Dreamer 100/1, Foaled April 29. 20,000 gns foal, 30,000 gns yearling, Advertise filly. Half-sister to 6f/7f winner Oh So Hot. Dam, 9.4f winner, closely related to useful 8.6f-1½m winner Bashiyr. Probably best watched on debut unless market vibes proved particularly strong. 30,000gns yearling; third foal; half-sister to Belgian 6f/7.5f winner Oh So Hot.. |
|||
8th (6)  (7/1 -56%)White Christmas |
7/1(-56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) White Christmas 7/1, 40,000 breeze-up purchase who displayed plenty of ability when finishing close-up last of 3 in a 5f maiden here 11 days ago, running green and not quicken inside final 1f. Very much the type to improve and he's expected to feature upped to 6f. Last of three here 11 days ago but ran well and it could be decent form.. |
|||
9th (3)  (12/1 +33%)Goodeveningmrbond |
12/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Goodeveningmrbond 12/1, Acclamation colt. Dam maiden (stayed 8.5f), half-sister to useful 8.5f/9f winner Media Luna. Offered something to work on when keeping on third in 5-runner Nottingham novice (5f, soft) on debut 26 days ago and he's fancied to build on that here. Not the only one to be well beaten by an impressive debutante at Nottingham (soft).. |
|||
10th (1)  (5/1 -67%)Art Historian |
5/1(-67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Art Historian 5/1, Foaled January 11. 25,000 gns yearling, 55,000 gns 2-y-o, Havana Grey colt. Half-brother to 1m winner Greg The Great. Dam 7f/1m winner. One for shortlist on debut given connections. 55,000gns 2yo; second foal; half-brother to 1m winner Greg The Great (RPR 72).. |
|||
11th (8)  (40/1 -186%)Magnificentforce |
40/1(-186%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Magnificentforce 40/1, Foaled March 1. Charm Spirit colt. Dam 1m winner who stayed 1½m. Betting should guide on debut but yard may well hold stronger claims with Flag of St George. Partnered by 7lb claimer Tommie Jakes and more than likely one for another day.. |
|||
12th (9)  (16/1 +36%)Sugarloaf Lenny |
16/1(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Sugarloaf Lenny 16/1, Foaled February 26. €10,000 foal, €28,000 yearling, Land Force colt. Dam, French 11.5f winner, half-sister to useful winner up to 1¼m Alder. 28,000euros yearling; fourth foal; dam French 11.5f winner.. |
|||
13th (5)  (22/1 -22%)Townsend Manor |
22/1(-22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Townsend Manor 22/1, Foaled February 25. 62,000 gns yearling, Advertise colt. Dam 6f winner. Market should guide. 62,000gns yearling; first foal; dam 6f AW winner (RPR 82); makes sense to check market.. |
|||
14th (10)  (14/1 -56%)Survivalist |
14/1(-56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Survivalist 14/1, Foaled April 16. 37,000 gns yearling, Invincible Army colt. Dam 7f/7.5f winner (including at 2 yrs). Yard 2-6 with their newcomers on turf so far this campaign and he's one to note. 37,000gns yearling; stable had a newcomer collect at Ascot last week.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Preference among those who have run is for FLAG OF ST GEORGE whose fourth here at the Craven meeting is already looking pretty good.

1st (13)  (22/1 +33%)Zara's Return |
22/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Zara's Return 22/1, Fair maiden who wasn't totally disgraced when eighth of 10 in handicap at Yarmouth (7f, good) 16 days ago. Others more persuasive, however. She's not hit the ground running this campaign and is best watched for now.. |
|||
2nd (5)  (2/1 +20%)Star Guest |
2/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Star Guest 2/1, Promising type who got off the mark in 8-runner minor event (10/11) at Lingfield (8f, AW), always holding on. Off 124 days but well in the mix now going handicapping. The form of her novice win has worked out well; strong contender on handicap debut.. |
|||
3rd (6)  (33/1 -230%)Tulekya |
33/1(-230%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Tulekya 33/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time when getting off the mark in 4-runner handicap (6/4) at Doncaster (8f, soft) 19 days ago. Had a bit in hand there so she's in the picture despite taking a 5 lb rise. A weak-looking four-runner handicap in which she justified favouritism at Doncaster.. |
|||
4th (7)  (14/1 +13%)Bloomwithgrace |
14/1(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Bloomwithgrace 14/1, Fair form when third on her first two runs but below that form when fifth in the mud in 1m minor event at Newbury on her final start. Can bounce back on her handicap debut. Lightly raced and she brings potential to her handicap/seasonal debut.. |
|||
5th (3)  (8/1 +43%)Zabbie |
8/1(+43%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Zabbie 8/1, Fair 7f winning juvenile who posted a good second of 8 in handicap at Goodwood (7f, heavy) 12 days ago. Solid claims nudged up just 1 lb. Back to form at Goodwood; stamina to prove over this far but hard to rule out.. |
|||
6th (11)  (28/1 -75%)Mildyjama |
28/1(-75%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Mildyjama 28/1, Modest maiden. Beat only one in 10f maiden here on her final start so she needs to bounce back now going into handicaps after 7 months off. First two runs promising; looks the type to pay her way in handicaps this season.. |
|||
7th (14)  (20/1 -25%)Risotto |
20/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Risotto 20/1, Fair maiden. 4/1, creditable third of 10 in handicap at Yarmouth (7f, good) 16 days ago. Not ruled out with this step up to 1m a plus. Built up a head of steam to be close up in a 7f handicap at Yarmouth; bred for 1m.. |
|||
8th (1)  (11/1 +8%)Mayfair Gold |
11/1(+8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Mayfair Gold 11/1, Made it 2-2 this year in 10f handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 14 days ago, despite going freely. Up another 2 lb but she can't be taken lightly. Consistent filly who could easily be 3-3 in handicaps; did well to win the latest; up 2lb.. |
|||
9th (10)  (16/1 +20%)Canadiansmokeshow |
16/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Canadiansmokeshow 16/1, Fair juvenile maiden. Failed to land the odds when only fifth of 8 in minor event at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 40 days ago. More is needed on her handicap debut. Worryingly only fifth when odds-on for her return in a Wolverhampton 7f novice.. |
|||
10th (2)  (6/1 -50%)Icy Dip |
6/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Icy Dip 6/1, Improving filly who resumed with comfortable win in 10-runner handicap at Kempton (8f) 29 days ago. Leading player in hat-trick bid. Won twice over 1m at Kempton, latterly on handicap debut and with a bit in hand; up 5lb.. |
|||
11th (9)  (66/1 -164%)Baccarat Baby |
66/1(-164%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Baccarat Baby 66/1, Fair maiden for Ralph Beckett, creditable fourth of 6 in 1m handicap (11/2) at Chelmsford City in January. No forlorn hope for her new yard after a break. Had four races for Ralph Beckett, latterly finishing close up in a small-field 1m handicap. |
|||
12th (8)  (11/1 +31%)Fariba |
11/1(+31%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Fariba 11/1, Fair filly who landed a Kempton maiden (1m) in August. Raced keenly and not disgraced on her return when third of six in 9.5f handicap at Wolverhampton 43 days ago. Needs considering. Returning to her winning trip should help but doesn't look obviously well handicapped.. |
|||
13th (4)  (4/1 +38%)Maid In London |
4/1(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Maid In London 4/1, 15/2, won 7-runner minor event at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 33 days ago, despite conceding first run. Open to further improvement now making her handicap debut. Convincing winner second time out on the AW and she's bred to do better again.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Star Guest smacks of a likely contender but MAID IN LONDON was also impressive in winning her novice on the AW.

1st (6)  (4.5/1 +50%)English Rose |
4.5/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) English Rose 4.5/1, Frankel filly. Dam winner up to 1¼m (Prix Saint-Alary and 2-y-o 1m winner). One to note on debut. Wears hood. Hooded for this belated debut and James Doyle presumably prefers Spring Dawn.. |
|||
2nd (10)  (0.73/1 +0%)Spring Dawn |
0.73/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Spring Dawn 0.73/1, Related to three winners and made an eye-catching start when second (conceded first run and finished strongly) over C&D on debut. Looks open to a good deal of improvement and should be up to opening his account this time. Came from off the pace to push the promising favourite close over C&D last month.. |
|||
3rd (1)  (66/1 +0%)Achillea |
66/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Achillea 66/1, 33/1, not knocked about when fourth of 12 in minor event at Newbury on debut but failed to build on it at this course next time and has been off 10 months since. Stable has a modest strike-rate with 2yos and she should have more to offer this season.. |
|||
4th (8)  (3.5/1 +13%)Ludmilla |
3.5/1(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Ludmilla 3.5/1, Plenty of encouragement when third at this course on debut last year and is easily excused her reappearance (still green and on the wrong part of the track), so looks a big player. Big eyecatcher here last year but ran moderately at the Craven meeting.. |
|||
5th (11)  (50/1 +24%)Valtellina |
50/1(+24%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Valtellina 50/1, 35,000 gns foal, 52,000 gns yearling, Caravaggio filly. Half-sister to several winners, including smart French/UAE 5f-7f winner Al Tariq and useful French winner up to 5.5f Lehaim. Dam lightly raced. Stable has been going well lately. 52,000gns yearling related to four winners; ridden by 7lb claimer on debut.. |
|||
6th (7)  (100/1 -100%)Ludden Lass |
100/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Ludden Lass 100/1, Signs of ability both starts to date but looks like more one for handicaps on the back of this. Decent debut last May but made an underwhelming return from ten months off.. |
|||
7th (9)  (33/1 -106%)Platinum Jubilee |
33/1(-106%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Platinum Jubilee 33/1, 65,000 gns yearling, Oasis Dream filly. Half-sister to 6f-7f winner Sip And Smile. Dam unraced sister to high-class 1m-1¼m winner Arod. Worth a market check. 65,000gns yearling; third foal; half-sister to 6f AW/7f turf winner Sip And Smile (RPR 85). |
|||
8th (4)  (8.5/1 +39%)Beautiful Summer |
8.5/1(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Beautiful Summer 8.5/1, Dark Angel filly. Half-sister to several winners, including high-class winner up to 8.3f Space Blues and very smart winner up to 9.5f Shuruq. Makes plenty of appeal on pedigree. Half-sister to Space Blues; jockey bookings suggest she's not the yard's principal hope.. |
|||
9th (2)  (18/1 -50%)Al Haan |
18/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Al Haan 18/1, Frankel filly. Dam, 2-y-o 5f winner, half-sister to smart winner up to 1m (stayed 1¼m) Threading. Notable newcomer. Second foal; dam 5f 2yo winner (RPR 84), half-sister to 6f 2yo Group 2 winner Threading.. |
|||
10th (3)  (100/1 -150%)Ali Jewels |
100/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Ali Jewels 100/1, 4,500 gns yearling, Aclaim filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including useful 6f/7f winner Passionova and 11f/1½m winner Let Her Loose. 4,500gns yearling; fourth foal; half-sister to Passionova (6f-7f; RPR 96).. |
|||
11th (5)  (200/1 -203%)Dalrymple |
200/1(-203%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Dalrymple 200/1, Cracksman filly from a classy staying family (half-sister to Dal Harraild and Dal Horrisgle). Some encouragement on both starts to date but needs further and will likely be brought along gradually. Beaten about 9l at Newbury and a little under that distance when sixth of eight at Thirsk.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Despite the form of her debut race taking some knocks, SPRING DAWN still looks the one to be with.

1st (3)  (16/1 -33%)Lord Rapscallion |
16/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Lord Rapscallion 16/1, Bagged pair of 7f Chelmsford handicaps in December and remained in good form on AW since. Wasn't disgraced returned to turf over this C&D recently but likely to find a few too good once again. Blinkers refitted. Not easy to win with and was only sixth over C&D 13 days ago.. |
|||
2nd (8)  (6.5/1 +24%)Royal Musketeer |
6.5/1(+24%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Royal Musketeer 6.5/1, Off the mark at second attempt for present connections when landing this race 12 months ago. 3 lb lower this time round but form dipped at the end of last year may prove vulnerable back from a break. Won this last year off a higher mark; can go well fresh and hard to rule out.. |
|||
3rd (4)  (4.5/1 +63%)Makeen |
4.5/1(+63%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Makeen 4.5/1, Dual 7f/1m winner last spring but ended 2022 on a downer and reappearance effort at Ripon was pretty low-key, even allowing for the fact that he probably needed the run. Another quiet run on his return to action but the ability is there to be involved.. |
|||
4th (7)  (4.5/1 +31%)Granary Queen |
4.5/1(+31%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Granary Queen 4.5/1, Enjoyed a productive 2022 campaign, winning 4 times and placed on several occasions. Returned in similarly good order last month, in the money in 7f/1m handicaps at Lingfield (both on AW), and she's likely to be in the shake-up once more. Running well on the AW but her hold-up tactics might not be ideally suited to this track.. |
|||
5th (2)  (3.33/1 +45%)Global Esteem |
3.33/1(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Global Esteem 3.33/1, Hit the target twice in 2022 and encouraging enough start to the present campaign fifth in a 15-runner Ascot handicap (1m, good) earlier this month. Each-way claims off the same mark here. Last three wins off this mark; likeable return over 1m and he's better at 7f.. |
|||
6th (1)  (7.5/1 -25%)Priscilla's Wish |
7.5/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Priscilla's Wish 7.5/1, Won 5 on the bounce at Yarmouth last year and belied odds of 66/1 when making a winning reappearance at Chelmsford (7f) in April. Lost little caste in defeat when runner-up over the same C&D 7 days later and another prominent showing could be on the way. Multiple winner last season and is coping well with her inflated mark.. |
|||
7th (5)  (7.5/1 -200%)Brasil Power |
7.5/1(-200%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Brasil Power 7.5/1, Below par in handful of runs for two different yards in Ireland but resumed winning ways on first start since rejoining this yard (also first run since being gelded) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) recently. 3 lb rise fair enough and he's high on the list. Winning return for this yard; perhaps better on the AW than turf but has a chance.. |
|||
8th (6)  (7.5/1 -36%)Stockpyle |
7.5/1(-36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Stockpyle 7.5/1, Has made the frame off similar marks on each of his last 3 starts, most recently finishing fourth of 7 at Doncaster (7f, heavy). Not without each-way hope but the first-time cheekpieces will need to help eke out a bit more if he's to emerge on top here. Should be thereabouts and first-time cheekpieces could give him a lift.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Priscilla's Wish continues to surprise off her inflated mark but GLOBAL ESTEEM is off the same figure for his last three wins.

1st (1)  (3.5/1 +13%)Cumulonimbus |
3.5/1(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Cumulonimbus 3.5/1, Won back-to-back over shorter trip at Yarmouth and Haydock last September before ending campaign with good third at Nottingham (10.2f) in October. Worth a try at this longer trip and should be straighter for last month's Pontefract return. Cheekpieces on first time. May have needed reappearance run; progressive form last autumn and retains potential. |
|||
2nd (2)  (14/1 -56%)Hasty Sailor |
14/1(-56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Hasty Sailor 14/1, Promising on the all-weather in 2021, scoring twice over this sort of trip. Lightly raced and unable to add to that success since but given a considerate return at Kempton recently and has been given a chance by the handicapper. Back down to last winning mark today, but there was no return to form on reappearance. |

3rd (5)  (5.5/1 -57%)Appier |
5.5/1(-57%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Appier 5.5/1, Progressive last season, winning 5 times (at up to 12.5f), and built on solid reappearance when taking 6-runner handicap (13/8) at Newcastle (12.4f) 16 days ago. 5 lb higher now but not taken lightly. Five wins last season and landed another at Newcastle last time; strong claims once more. |
|||
4th (3)  (3/1 +25%)Sonnerie Power |
3/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Sonnerie Power 3/1, Much improved when scoring over this trip at Lingfield in September and ended campaign with creditable third at Wolverhampton. Posted solid return/turf debut at Leicester last month and remains fairly treated. Made a solid start to his handicap career and he's in good hands to continue to progress. |
|||
5th (4)  (18/1 -50%)Captain Kane |
18/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Captain Kane 18/1, Prolific from a low base in handicaps last year, winning 7 times (at up to 12.1f) and best not judged too harshly on his latest run at Wolverhampton (9.5f), having had hopeless task from position. Mark is easing. Runs off last winning mark but has been below par on his last few starts. |
|||
6th (7)  (5/1 +17%)Star Angel |
5/1(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Star Angel 5/1, Opened account at Southwell (12.1f) in March and far from disgraced in a couple of Doncaster handicaps since, latest when fourth of 7 (16.5f, heavy) 20 days ago. Others look better treated, though. Cheekpieces on first time. Perhaps soft ground was against her in her first two handicaps; not written off. |
|||
7th (6)  (4/1 +0%)Liseo |
4/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Liseo 4/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Back from 10 months off when good second of 5 in minor event (4/1) at Beverley (9.9f, good to soft) 21 days ago, clear of rest. May have more to offer now upped in trip on handicap debut. 0-5 but some solid efforts behind good horses and has potential off his h'cap debut mark. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Having bumped into some good horses across his five starts, LISEO is taken to make a winning handicap debut.

1st (7)  (4.5/1 -20%)Fox Journey |
4.5/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Fox Journey 4.5/1, Similar form in novice/maiden events in the autumn. Will be suited by 1¼m and type to do better at 3 yrs. Brings potential, particularly for 1m2f+, so is one to note on handicap/seasonal debut. |
|||
2nd (1)  (12/1 -33%)Mighty River |
12/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Mighty River 12/1, Novice winner on third start at Wolverhampton in December and went the right way in handicaps during the winter, second of 6 on next 2 starts. Well held back on turf last time but that was on heavy ground. His only two turf runs have been on soft, so perhaps that is not ideal; not ruled out. |
|||
3rd (4)  (16/1 -14%)Cavern Club |
16/1(-14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Cavern Club 16/1, Improved when making a winning nursery debut at Kempton in this headgear in December, still looking very raw once in front. May do better still assuming he keeps his quirks in check. Plenty of ability (won handicap debut) but a few quirks too, as he's been hanging badly. |
|||
4th (2)  (2.75/1 -38%)Connemara Coast |
2.75/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Connemara Coast 2.75/1, Well-bred gelding who was off the mark at the second attempt at Wolverhampton in October and not seen to best effect both starts this term, very much catching the eye when second here (1m) on handicap bow last month, running on from the rear after meeting trouble. Bred to stay and can go one better. Eyecatching second of 15 here (1m), given how long on the bridle looking for a clear run. |
|||
5th (6)  (2.5/1 +58%)Power Of Gold |
2.5/1(+58%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Power Of Gold 2.5/1, Stepped up on 2-y-o form when third at Redcar on handicap bow 2 weeks ago, staying on well from off the pace. Form has been boosted since so needs considering. Third of eight from off the pace in handicap at Redcar (1m2f, good to soft) two weeks ago. |
|||
6th (3)  (16/1 +0%)Pol Roger |
16/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Pol Roger 16/1, Won novice events at Haydock and Thirsk in August but underperformed at Musselburgh on return and never dangerous at Haydock since. Out of form lately but new trip may well be a plus and his yard is among the winners. |
|||
7th (9)  (28/1 -27%)Rhythm And Tyne |
28/1(-27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Rhythm And Tyne 28/1, Similar form in AW maiden/novice events at Dundalk for Mick Halford. Subsequently gelded and may do better now qualified for handicaps in first-time headgear for new yard. Three runs at Dundalk (1m, AW) in the winter for Michael Halford; gelded and cheekpieces. |
|||
8th (8)  (8/1 +20%)Muir Wood |
8/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Muir Wood 8/1, Improved in each of his 3 starts as a juvenile, ending campaign with fairly-useful second of 10 in novice event at Lingfield (10f, AW) in December. Warrants respect on return. Improved results in his three runs as a 2yo; should be open to progress as 3yo. |
|||
9th (5)  (10/1 -25%)Mindset |
10/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Mindset 10/1, Still green when getting off the mark at the second attempt at Beverley last year and showed improved form when third under a penalty in 7f novice at this course in October. Can't be discounted now stepping up in trip on handicap bow/return. Good chance he can stay 1m2f and he is open to improvement on handicap debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
After trouble in running last time, CONNEMARA COAST (nap) can make amends. Fox Journey and Cavern Club are feared most.

1st (4)  (6/1 -100%)Quinault |
6/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Quinault 6/1, Comfortably made a winning handicap debut at Chelmsford (6f) last month before following up in dominant fashion 6 days later under a penalty at Brighton (7f, good) earlier this month. One to keep firmly on side and looks sure to go well in pursuit of the hat-trick. Sudden improvement to win his last two and could well deal with latest 9lb rise.. |
|||
2nd (3)  (3/1 +33%)Ertebat |
3/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Ertebat 3/1, Got off the mark sporting first-time blinkers/tongue tie on handicap debut at Pontefract (6f, good to soft) just over a fortnight ago, knuckling down well enough under pressure to get up close home. Up 5 lb for that success but fancied to be in the mix again. The form of his Pontefract win has been franked so a 5lb rise seems fair.. |
|||
3rd (2)  (4.5/1 +63%)Fierce |
4.5/1(+63%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Fierce 4.5/1, Yet to get his head in front but hit the frame on his final 4 outings as a 2-y-o, latest when fourth at Southwell (5f) 5 months ago. Mark eases a shade and will need to hit the ground running to get involved. There are races to be won off this mark and market can guide after a break.. |
|||
4th (7)  (7/1 +61%)Champagne Sarah |
7/1(+61%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Champagne Sarah 7/1, Off the mark at Newcastle in November and ran respectably on both outings at Lingfield after 4 months off this year, though again not really handling the turn when fourth last month. This just her second outing on turf and could do better on a straight track. Doesn't look ahead of her mark but gives the impression that this stiff 6f might suit.. |
|||
5th (6)  (12/1 -9%)Ajjaj |
12/1(-9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Ajjaj 12/1, Showed much improved form to get off the mark on return after 8 months off at Kempton (7f) just over a fortnight ago, proving game having made most under this rider. Another step forward required now tackling handicaps. Beat a 100-1 chance in his maiden at Kempton and that form looks dubious.. |
|||
6th (8)  (5/1 +17%)Hiatus |
5/1(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Hiatus 5/1, Belatedly opened his account when narrowly outpointing Confederation at Kempton (6f) in January and showed improved form to resume winning ways in decisive style back on turf at Windsor (6f, heavy) 10 days ago. Should be in the mix under a penalty. The ground was soft when impressing at Windsor; only 1lb well-in with the penalty.. |
|||
7th (13)  (25/1 -400%)Mine That Ship |
25/1(-400%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Mine That Ship 25/1, Just modest form shown in a trio of minor events in recent months but could leave those efforts well behind now handicapping for her in-form yard. She's with a respected yard and should be seen to better effect in handicaps.. |
|||
8th (9)  (33/1 +18%)Skallywag Bay |
33/1(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Skallywag Bay 33/1, Put experience to good use when winning 10-runner novice event at Kempton (6f) in September but dropped out tamely making her handicap debut on return at Salisbury (6f, good to soft) a fortnight ago. Must bounce back. Finished last on handicap debut and her Kempton win is very much a standout.. |
|||
9th (5)  (12/1 +0%)Pierce |
12/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Pierce 12/1, Speedily bred sort who ran creditably despite still looking rough around the edges on return/handicap debut at Wolverhampton (6.1f) just over 5 weeks ago, hanging badly left over 1f out. Will need to take a big step forward to get involved. Stronger pace would have helped on comeback and now goes in blinkers.. |
|||
10th (10)  (18/1 +28%)Confederation |
18/1(+28%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Confederation 18/1, Brighton maiden winner for John Butler on final 2-y-o start and posted best effort for present yard when touched off by Hiatus at Kempton (6f) in January. Rather snatched defeat from the jaws of victory that day, and didn't look straightforward at Windsor (6f, heavy) earlier this month. Not on a bad mark and best to put a line through his Windsor run behind Hiatus.. |
|||
11th (11)  (25/1 +38%)Warminster |
25/1(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Warminster 25/1, Won maiden at Kempton in January but has run poorly in handicaps on his last 2 outings, beaten a long way out sporting first-time cheekpieces at Lingfield last time. Hard to fancy on recent efforts. Hasn't progressed from his January maiden win at Kempton (6f); enough to prove.. |
|||
12th (1)  (25/1 -108%)Beautiful Sunrise |
25/1(-108%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Beautiful Sunrise 25/1, Improved having been gelded when good second of 10 in handicap at Kempton (6f) on return from 8-month absence in February but disappointed 4 weeks later at Lingfield. Will need to leave that effort behind but it's still early days. He's a speedy sort who may struggle to get home on this stiffer course.. |
|||
13th (12)  (50/1 -79%)Mont Vallon |
50/1(-79%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Mont Vallon 50/1, Little to shout about on all 3 outings so far but worth monitoring in the market now switched to handicaps/gelded with a tongue tie applied. Gelded ahead of going handicapping and the tongue-tie is another notable addition.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Quinault has fairly dotted up the last twice but ERTEBAT could be every bit as progressive judged on his Pontefract display.

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.
