1st (1) ( ) Creative Force |

2nd (3) ( ) Perotto |
() | (3) Perotto , Dual winner last year and ended his season with a good third in a valuable sales race over C&D in October, but now returns to handicap company much higher in the weights. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) ( ) Bickerstaffe |
() | (4) Bickerstaffe , Promising type who made a winning start at Hamilton last year. Not in quite same form in Ayr listed race but back on the up when making a winning handicap bow/return (6f) at Pontefract. More to come. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) ( ) If You Dare |

Al Muffrih |
(9) ( )() | (9) Al Muffrih , Respectable efforts this year but winless since 2019 and bit of a surprise if he snaps that losing run in a race as competitive as this back on turf. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Overwrite |
(7) ( )() | (7) Overwrite , Bagged the rail and made all in a 1m handicap here last month. Ridden differently when third at Ripon last week and looks vulnerable to less-exposed sorts. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Mascat |
(8) ( )() | (8) Mascat , Maiden winner here at 2 yrs and largely creditable efforts in handicaps at up to 1½m last season. Kept on well for second at Ripon a fortnight ago under this rider but nudged up 2 lb for that. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Bright Melody |
(1) ( )() | (1) Bright Melody , Runner-up on January's reappearance at Meydan and built on that when going one place better at the same venue a month later (9f). Lightly raced for a 4-y-o and he should be very competitive again. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Graphite |
(5) ( )() | (5) Graphite , Smart miler in France for Andre Fabre in 2019. Missed all of last year and dropped away in the Lincoln on debut for new connections. This will reveal more. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Starcat |
(6) ( )() | (6) Starcat , Looked a very useful prospect when making a winning debut on the AW in 2019. With that in mind, last year was disappointing, but he wouldn't be the first to get back on track as a 4-y-o. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Gill Brothers |
(10) ( )() | (10) The Gill Brothers , Lightly raced on turf and caught the eye in a couple of AW runs this spring, pulling hard and keeping on in messy Chelmsford race. Disappointing at Newbury, however. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (2) ( ) Bell Rock |
() | (2) Bell Rock , Didn't do a great deal wrong in big-field handicaps last term after making a winning reappearance in a 1m handicap at this venue. Clearly very capable fresh and mark is within reach. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) ( ) Maydanny |
() | (3) Maydanny , Back on the up in no uncertain terms when landing 9.9f handicap at Glorious Goodwood in July. York run easy to forgive but ended campaign with a disappointing effort at Newbury. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) ( ) Dubai Legacy |
() | (4) Dubai Legacy , Doesn't look completely straightforward but broke on terms in a refitted visor and showed more when third in 7f handicap at Meydan in February. Cheekpieces now on up in trip. |

Judicial |
(8) ( )() | (8) Judicial , Smart veteran who was as good as ever last year, winning twice, including at this level at Newcastle. Runner-up twice in this on his return in the last 3 seasons so another bold show likely. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Aljady |
(2) ( )() | (2) Aljady , Enjoyed a productive campaign and climbed the handicap ladder last term, winning on 4 occasions. Respectable return when nose second in Chelmsford minor event and not taken lightly up in class. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Garrus |
(7) ( )() | (7) Garrus , Smart as a 3-y-o and defied a 19-month absence in a minor event at Wolverhampton (5f). Proved better than ever when close second to Came From The Dark at Newbury 2 weeks ago and 4 lb better off here. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Arecibo |
(3) ( )() | (3) Arecibo , Countless creditable efforts in major sprint handicaps for David O'Meara and took advantage of career-low mark for new yard here (5f) on return. This a much sterner examination, however. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Dubai Station |
(5) ( )() | (5) Dubai Station , Won the Pavilion Stakes at Newcastle on his 3-y-o return. Well held 2 of next 3 starts but was a good third in a Group 3 at Deauville. Sold from K. R. Burke 150,000 gns in October. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Glamorous Anna |
(9) ( )() | (9) Glamorous Anna , Useful filly whose best performance last season (beaten a length and a half by Lazuli in a Group 3 at Newbury) is backed up by the timefigure. Stiff task on return but track could suit her style. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (1) ( ) Lazuli |
() | (1) Lazuli , Smart gelding who won twice last year, including Group 3 at Newbury in September. Respectable return at Meydan in January and remains lightly raced for s sprinter. High on shortlist despite penalty. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) ( ) Came From The Dark |
() | (4) Came From The Dark , Did well last season and further improvement this spring, just losing out at Musselburgh on return before making amends at Newbury, doing well to reel in Garrus. Remains one to be positive about. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) ( ) Emaraaty Ana |
() | (6) Emaraaty Ana , Hasn’t progressed as expected since winning the Gimcrack as a juvenile in 2018 but has still shown smart form on both outings this season, close third in C&D Group 3 16 days ago. Respected. |

Thunderous |
(5) ( )() | (5) Thunderous , Last year's Dante winner at York but he disappointed on his first run since in Gordon Richard Stakes at Sandown last week. Should appreciate this step up in trip though and could easily bounce back. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Pablo Escobarr |
(2) ( )() | (2) Pablo Escobarr , Gained reward for a string of consistent efforts last season when landing a Group 3 at Goodwood. Likely to give a good another account of himself on his return despite eight-month absence. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Al Zaraqaan |
(1) ( )() | (1) Al Zaraqaan , Progressed rapidly as 3-y-o and took his form up a notch when impressively landing Rosebery Handicap at Kempton on return. Needs to take another big step forward here but by no means ruled out. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (4) ( ) Sir Ron Priestley |
() | (4) Sir Ron Priestley , Very smart in 2019, 2nd in St Leger. Off 19 months before ready winner of 1m6f listed race at Nottingham last month. Drops back in trip now but still very much one for the shortlist. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Mutasaabeq |
(8) ( )() | (8) Mutasaabeq , Course debut winner at 2 who looked really good when bolting up in small-field conditions race back here (7f, good to firm) 18 days ago. Subsequently supplemented for this. Not to be underestimated. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Naval Crown |
(10) ( )() | (10) Naval Crown , Improved form when readily making all in 1m listed race at Meydan in February by 1¾ lengths from Master of The Seas. Backed that up when second in Free Handicap here 17 days ago. One of 3 for stable. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Albadri |
(1) ( )() | (1) Albadri , Useful effort when winning 1m Southwell handicap in January but well beaten in Saudi Arabia and a Kempton conditions event since. Big outsider. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Battleground |
(2) ( )() | (2) Battleground , Chesham and Vintage winner last summer who wasn't seen to best effect (caught too far back) when staying on for 3 lengths second in Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf (1m) final start. Likely more to come. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Chindit |
(3) ( )() | (3) Chindit , Bombed out in Dewhurst but that's his sole defeat in 5 starts, leaving impression 1m is sure to suit when leading late on in Greenham at Newbury. Stable had several go well in this down the years. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Devilwala |
(4) ( )() | (4) Devilwala , Smart effort when fourth in Dewhurst here last autumn but that's comfortably his best run to date, beaten 5½ lengths into fourth by Master of The Seas in Craven on C&D return. Would be a shock winner. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Legion Of Honour |
(5) ( )() | (5) Legion Of Honour , Confirmed turf debut promise when landing odds in Newcastle novice in November and shaped very well when ½-length second of 4 to Megallan in listed race back there (1m) 29 days ago. More to come. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Mystery Smiles |
(9) ( )() | (9) Mystery Smiles , Very useful colt who proved his stamina for 1m when good 3¾ lengths third of 10 to Master of The Seas in Craven on C&D return. Yard won this last year but surprise if he can stage a repeat. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
One Ruler |
(11) ( )() | (11) One Ruler , Beat Van Gogh by 1¾ lengths to win C&D Group 3 last October and just as good when ¾-length second to Mac Swiney in Futurity at Doncaster a fortnight later. Buick looks elsewhere but still respected. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Thunder Moon |
(13) ( )() | (13) Thunder Moon , Looked potentially high-class when overcoming trouble to beat Wembley in National Stakes last September. Possible excuses when behind that rival in Dewhurst and remains a top prospect. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Van Gogh |
(14) ( )() | (14) Van Gogh , Runner-up 3 times in Group company before finally getting job done at pattern level in Criterium at Saint-Cloud (1m, heavy) in October. One of 3 solid contenders for yard seeking eleventh win in this. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Wembley |
(15) ( )() | (15) Wembley , Didn't win a maiden until his fourth start, but improved in leaps and bounds in the autumn, chasing home Thunder Moon in National before finishing ahead of that rival in Dewhurst. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (12) ( ) Poetic Flare |
() | (12) Poetic Flare , Wrapped up his juvenile campaign with a 7f Leopardstown Group 3 success and reappeared with win in 2000 Guineas Trial there last month. Will stay 1m and capable of better still. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) ( ) Master Of The Seas |
() | (7) Master Of The Seas , Turned over at short odds by Naval Crown on Meydan return but showed his true colours with hood added when quickening up well to win Craven over C&D last month. The choice of Buick from yard's trio. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

() | (6) Lucky Vega , Ready winner of Group 1 Phoenix at the Curragh last August. Met trouble when behind a few of these in National (7f) and back on song when second in Middle Park here final start. Stamina an unknown. |

(6) ( )() | (6) Embour , Useful handicapper who bounced back to his best returning from 5 months off when winning 12-runner handicap at Redcar (6f, good to firm) 26 days ago. Just a 3 lb rise to deal with so he's respected. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Great Ambassador |
(3) ( )() | (3) Great Ambassador , Sold from Ralph Beckett's yard for 40,000 gns and took his form up a level when winning at Kempton on reappearance 5 weeks ago. Could be more to come back on turf and he's high on the shortlist. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Huraiz |
(5) ( )() | (5) Huraiz , Unable to build on previous promise when finishing last at Wolverhampton back in March. Has since left Mark Johnston (60,000 gns) and is probably best watched for now. Tongue strap on 1st time. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (2) ( ) Chil Chil |
() | (2) Chil Chil , Won over C&D as a 3-y-o and added to her tally when taking 6f Ascot handicap in good style in August. At least as good as ever when runner-up here on return but will need to step forward again. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

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.
