1st (2)  (10/1 -54%)Friendly Soul |
10/1(-54%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Friendly Soul 10/1, Kingman half-sister to numerous winners, including very smart 1½m-2½m winner Call The Wind. Perfect start in 1m Kempton fillies' maiden in December, kept up to work under just hand riding and looking a smart prospect. More to come and 1 of 2 fillies for yard that have won 6 of the last 10 runnings. Late foal with fine pedigree; tenacious winner of a maiden at Kempton (1m, AW) in December. |
|||
2nd (4)  (4/6 +64%)Kalpana |
4/6(+64%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Kalpana 4/6, Overcame inexperience to make a winning debut at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in January and continued improvement when slamming 8 rivals on handicap/turf debut over C&D at the Craven Meeting, forging clear from 2f out. Open to further progress and leading claims. Plenty of promise on AW before routing her rivals in C&D handicap; the best form in this. |
|||
3rd (5)  (22/1 -100%)Kitteridge |
22/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Kitteridge 22/1, Confirmed debut promise in the manner of a useful prospect when landing Newcastle fillies' maiden over this trip 10 weeks ago, hitting the line strongly. Should have lots more to offer switched to turf now. 2nd and 1st in two 1m2f AW races early this year; much more required but she's promising. |
|||
4th (7)  (14/1 +0%)Strutting |
14/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Strutting 14/1, Improved nicely last year, looking more professional and getting off the mark in good style in 8.6f Wolverhampton fillies' novice in November. Longer trip will suit this term and she'll progress further. 1 of 2 runners for yard that have dominated this race. 2nd here as 2yo before winning on AW; looks sure to be well suited by this extra distance. |
|||
5th (6)  (12/1 -118%)Lunar Eclipse |
12/1(-118%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Lunar Eclipse 12/1, €350,000 yearling by Night of Thunder who made a winning start in 7f fillies' novice in the mud here in November, picking up well from off the pace. Track experience won't be lost on her and she's sure to progress up in trip. Novice win from the back here (7f, heavy) in November augured well for stamina/potential. |
|||
6th (8)  (9/2 -35%)Winter Snowfall |
9/2(-35%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Winter Snowfall 9/2, Superbly-bred filly who built on debut promise when landing Chelmsford fillies' maiden 3 weeks ago, overcoming a modest gallop and scoring cosily from one who has run out a wide-margin winner on turf since. Has an action to suggest she'll be just as good on turf and will progress again. Two AW runs last month, scoring last time (1m2f) from a filly who has looked useful since. |
|||
7th (1)  (14/1 -27%)Carolina Reaper |
14/1(-27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Carolina Reaper 14/1, Useful filly who won twice over 7f at 2 yrs, including on the other course here. Step up in trip will suit but exposed compared to most of her rivals and might want softer ground. 2-6 as 2yo but well held in her two British Group races; useful form at her best. |
|||
8th (3)  (33/1 -32%)Gray's Inn |
33/1(-32%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Gray's Inn 33/1, Fairly useful filly who won twice at up to 7f last summer. Should be suited by longer trip on breeding but has stacks to find. Some fairly useful form among her eight 2yo races; needs something of a higher order. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
With six of the eight a winner last time out, this looks better than average and although Galileo filly Winter Snowfall is bred to be special, she will need to improve from her Chelmsford maiden win to get the better of KALPANA. First and second in her two all-weather starts, she stepped up a gear to win a handicap here by 10 lengths and more than warrants a crack at this better contest. Lunar Eclipse holds an Oaks entry and may hold Friendly Soul in the race for third.
KALPANA looked right at home on this track when slamming a promising field in a C&D handicap last month and can take this step up in class in her stride if building on that as expected. Winter Snowfall is a big player for Godolphin, while the Gosden yard, which has won this 6 times in the last 10 years, have live contenders in Friendly Soul and Strutting.
Kalpana's 10l handicap win is easily the best form but there's notable promise among most of her rivals, including LUNAR ECLIPSE.

1st (7)  (5/1 +17%)Stay Alert |
5/1(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Stay Alert 5/1, Developed into a smart performer at 3, the highlight being a Group 3 success at Newbury. Hold-up tactics not as effective in very good company last term, only really giving her true running once when runner-up in a first-time tongue tie in the Pretty Polly. Has the form to be major player on return. Brings respectable Group 1 form back into a Group 2; major claims at the weights. |
|||
2nd (6)  (6/4 +25%)Running Lion |
6/4(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Running Lion 6/4, Impressive when easily completing a 4-timer in the 1¼m Pretty Polly (soft) at this meeting a year ago. Back on track after her flop in the French Oaks when placed twice after before finishing mid-field in Group 1 company at Ascot. Major player on reappearance back in trip. Still to prove fully that she can compete at this level but the potential is there. |
|||
3rd (3)  (7/1 -17%)Caernarfon |
7/1(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Caernarfon 7/1, Reached the frame in the 1000 Guineas and the Oaks on her first 2 outings last year. Ran right up to her best when beaten only 2¾ lengths into fifth in the Nassau at Goodwood and Salisbury race less than a fortnight later may have come too soon. Off since. Held her own in three Group 1s last season and she's quick enough for this drop in trip. |
|||
4th (4)  (20/1 -82%)Heartache Tonight |
20/1(-82%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Heartache Tonight 20/1, Yet to add to her heavy-ground Longchamp debut success at 2 but she showed useful form when in the frame at Group level in France last spring. Off since creditable 2½ lengths sixth in Deauville Group 2 (12.5f, soft) in August. Close up a 1m2f French Group 1 last season; there could well be better to come as a 4yo. |
|||
5th (2)  (15/2 +25%)Astral Beau |
15/2(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Astral Beau 15/2, Very progressive handicapper in 2022 and improved another chunk when landing a listed race at Doncaster on 2023 reappearance. Plenty of solid efforts in defeat since, including when runner-up on last month's repeat bid. Likeable mare who will give it another good go. Third last year and showed even better form afterwards; should come on for reappearance. |
|||
6th (1)  (16/5 +29%)Silver Lady |
16/5(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Silver Lady 16/5, Career-best effort when landing Group 2 at Meydan in January (1m) displaying a willing attitude in the process. 3 lb penalty to carry as a result but she's in top hands and is still unexposed. Classy filly but best form has been at 1m and she's notoriously headstrong. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
Stay Alert is officially the best horse in this line-up, but she hasn't won since September 2022 and is passed over on her first start of the season. Running Lion heads the early betting after her eighth in the Group 1 Champion Fillies and Mares last October but her best win so far was in Listed class, and a chance is taken on SILVER LADY. Lightly raced with just five starts, she won the Group 2 Cape Verdi at Meydan in January and looks all set for a successful season.
RUNNING LION won at this meeting last year and while she lacks a prep run this time that's no concern given the yard she represents and this drop in trip may help her cause. She's just about the most persuasive option, though Stay Alert is a huge threat on her best form, while Silver Lady isn't yet exposed and is another danger, even with a penalty.
It's feasible that Running Lion can deliver the career best she'll need but ASTRAL BEAU is smart and she has the benefit of a run.

1st (10)  (6/1 +0%)Bague D'or |
6/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Bague D'or 6/1, Likeable sort proved as good as ever for his new yard when runner-up in a heritage handicap at York (11.8f) in August and again gave his running upped to this trip at Doncaster the following month. Still unexposed in this kind of contest and he's not ruled out. Very solid record in handicaps, particularly on good or good to firm; player if he gets it. |
|||
2nd (9)  (16/1 -167%)Vaguely Royal |
16/1(-167%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Vaguely Royal 16/1, Developed into a useful performer after winning at Doncaster maiden in June, winning back-to-back handicaps on all-weather in the winter. Arrives after a pair of decent efforts over 2m and should be competitive with race-fitness on his side. Good third over 2m on penultimate start; major player if his best AW form is transferred. |
|||
3rd (4)  (11/2 +21%)Intinso |
11/2(+21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Intinso 11/2, Took his form up a notch to resume winning ways in good style at Wolverhampton in March. Seemingly just found out for pace when third at Kempton last time and longer trip could draw out further improvement returned to turf. Tends to race freely but keeps on well over 1m4f; AW form needs to be carried over. |
|||
4th (5)  (15/2 +46%)Kihavah |
15/2(+46%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Kihavah 15/2, Thrived last summer, recording a 4-timer (including a handicap hurdle) between May and June before a fine second in a heritage handicap at the July Course here. Shaped as if needing the run at Kempton on his comeback and he can give a good account. Never dangerous three months ago after an absence; has a chance if back to his peak form. |
|||
5th (1)  (3/1 +14%)New London |
3/1(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) New London 3/1, Placed in 2 listed races here last season and not disgraced when making the frame in a pair of Meydan Group 3s in the winter. Interesting having his first start in handicap company for the best part of 2 years. Runner-up in the 2022 St Leger; lightly raced since and has not hit the same heights. |
|||
6th (6)  (11/1 +0%)Berkshire Rocco |
11/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Berkshire Rocco 11/1, Winner over 2m at Southwell last January and plenty of solid efforts later in the season, notably fifth of 22 in the Ebor at York. Returns from 7 months off with cheekpieces reapplied. Form of two runs last August gives him a shout but he does not look the percentage call. |
|||
7th (8)  (17/2 -31%)Adjuvant |
17/2(-31%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Adjuvant 17/2, Beaten only a neck into equal-second by HMS President in this race last season before going one place better over C&D 12 days later. Ended Flat campaign with a couple of below-par efforts and perhaps didn't quite match expectations sent hurdling this winter, so others are preferred. 2023 campaign petered out but he'd be a big player if reverting to his best. |
|||
8th (2)  (40/1 -233%)Wise Eagle |
40/1(-233%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Wise Eagle 40/1, Continued his progress when making a winning return at Musselburgh last season before a fine effort to finish runner-up in the Sagaro Stakes next time. Seemed amiss in Ascot Gold Cup, though, so best watched after 10-month absence. Very productive and progressive before tailing off in the Ascot Gold Cup last June. |
|||
9th (7)  (6/1 +45%)Struth |
6/1(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Struth 6/1, Won at Chester last May and generally held form well in defeat later in the season, headed only late on when runner-up in the November Handicap at Newcastle (12.4f) on his final outing. Gelded over the winter and is hard to rule out on return. Rather a mixed record as 3yo but both 1m6f attempts were creditable; has been gelded. |
|||
10th (11)  (14/1 +22%)Cannon Rock |
14/1(+22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Cannon Rock 14/1, Won a maiden here for Charlie Appleby on his second of 2 starts as a juvenile. Sold relatively cheaply having missed all of 2023 but made an impressive return for his new yard at Southwell in March and wasn't seen to best effect sent handicapping at Kempton next time. Could do better still. Two wins from four starts; handicap debut was best form but marked improvement is needed. |
|||
11th (3)  (16/1 -45%)Hms President |
16/1(-45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Hms President 16/1, Better than ever when winning this race last season and before going down only a neck in the Duke of Edinburgh Stakes at Royal Ascot. Below expectations sent hurdling last time but merits respect back on the level. Won this race by a neck last year and beaten a neck at Royal Ascot; needs a career best. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
HMS President won this last year for Alan King and is capable of another decent showing, despite carrying an extra 8lb on this occasion. New London has every chance in handicap company after coming home fourth and third at Meydan in Group 3 contests, but asking him to give 10lb to INTINSO looks a big ask. A winner at Wolverhampton in March and a running-on third at Kempton since, this trip may bring plenty of improvement from the lightly-raced four-year-old.
A really competitive heat, with NEW LONDON fancied to defy top weight dropping back into handicap company for the first time since winning at the July Meeting in 2022. Intinso should be suited by the longer distance this time and remains low-mileage in handicaps, with Vaguely Royal and the unexposed Cannon Rock others to consider.
The suggestion is to side with BAGUE D'OR if the ground is good or firmer, and Struth if it is softer than good.

1st (4)  (28/1 +15%)Elmalka |
28/1(+15%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Elmalka 28/1, AW winner on debut in November and left that form behind when ½-length third of 6 to Folgaria (Regal Jubilee neck ahead in second) in Fred Darling at Newbury (7f, good) 15 days ago, nearest finish. Should improve again now stepping up to 1m. Close third in the Fred Darling; twice-raced and well-bred filly who has potential. |
|||
2nd (6)  (11/1 +45%)Porta Fortuna |
11/1(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Porta Fortuna 11/1, Caravaggio filly who numbered the Albany at Royal Ascot and Cheveley Park here (both 6f, good to firm) among her 4 wins at 2. Proved her stamina for further when good second Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf at Santa Anita (1m, firm) final start. Productive, consistent and versatile but is held by Fallen Angel on Moyglare form. |
|||
3rd (8)  (9/2 +55%)Ramatuelle |
9/2(+55%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Ramatuelle 9/2, Won Group 2/3s over 6f at Chantilly last summer and narrowly denied in the Prix Morny at Deauville final 2-y-o start. Shaped well when ½-length second of 7 to Romantic Style in Prix Imprudence at Deauville (7f, heavy) on reappearance 26 days ago. Leading form claims now stepping up to 1m. Notable French challenger; second in last year's Morny; respected on the figures. |
|||
4th (15)  (33/1 +50%)Tamfana |
33/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (15) Tamfana 33/1, Won a 7f Chantilly Group 3 on heavy on her final 2-y-o start and bettered that form when length third of 7 to Romantic Style (Ramatuelle ½ length ahead in second) in Prix Imprudence at Deauville (7f, heavy) on reappearance 26 days ago. 1m should be within range. Improving filly who ties in with Ramatuelle on reappearance form. |
|||
5th (16)  (5/1 -25%)Ylang Ylang |
5/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (16) Ylang Ylang 5/1, Frankel filly who won 3 of her 5 starts as a juvenile, notably the Fillies' Mile over C&D (good to soft) in October, leading late on to beat Shuwari ½ length. Her outstanding trainer is seeking a sixth win in this since 2016. A must for the shortlist. Fillies' Mile winner; big player on form; trainer has won this race seven times. |
|||
6th (10)  (50/1 +24%)Rolica |
50/1(+24%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Rolica 50/1, 320,000 gns purchase who is bred to be useful and built on her 1m debut promise last autumn when winning a 7f Craven meeting maiden 17 days ago. Will be suited by the return to 1m but this is a big jump in class. Bare form of her Craven meeting win is a long way short of Guineas standard. |
|||
7th (1)  (12/1 +40%)Cinderella's Dream |
12/1(+40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Cinderella's Dream 12/1, Stretched her unbeaten 4 in 1m Meydan listed event in March, forging clear despite a slipped saddle meaning her jockey was without irons from halfway. More to come but Buick sides with Dance Sequence this time. Still unbeaten and has had an identical prep to last year's winner Mawj; interesting. |
|||
8th (5)  (10/3 +5%)Fallen Angel |
10/3(+5%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Fallen Angel 10/3, Too Darn Hot filly who made won the Sweet Solera over on the July Course before ending her 2-y-o campaign with victory in the Group 1 Moyglare at the Curragh, impressing with how she quickened again when challenged. Likely even better to come at 1m. Big player. Very progressive 2yo campaign culminated in Group 1 Moyglare success; leading contender. |
|||
9th (2)  (13/2 -30%)Dance Sequence |
13/2(-30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Dance Sequence 13/2, Won a July Course maiden on debut and followed up in the Group 3 Oh So Sharp over 7f here in October. Beaten a neck by Pretty Crystal in Nell Gwyn here (7f again) on reappearance but has good prospects of turning those places around now stepping up to 1m. Should build on her Nell Gwyn effort with this new trip sure to suit; major contender. |
|||
10th (7)  (33/1 -136%)Pretty Crystal |
33/1(-136%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Pretty Crystal 33/1, Came up short in 4 attempts at pattern company at 2 but improved when edging out the reopposing Dance Sequence in the Nell Gwyn here (7f, good to firm) on reappearance 18 days ago. Quite a bit more will be needed to follow up here, though. Gamely beat Dance Sequence in the Nell Gwyn; may well build on that win. |
|||
11th (9)  (28/1 +15%)Regal Jubilee |
28/1(+15%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Regal Jubilee 28/1, C&D listed winner (heavy) on her final 2-y-o start and bettered that form when neck second to Folgaria (Elmalka close up in third) in Fred Darling at Newbury (7f, good) on reappearance 15 days ago. Will benefit from the return to 1m. Good second in the 7f Fred Darling; may have more to offer back up in distance. |
|||
12th (12)  (15/2 +17%)See The Fire |
15/2(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) See The Fire 15/2, July Course debut winner last summer . Excellent effort on only second start when 3 lengths second to Darnation in May Hill at Doncaster and progressed again when 1¼ lengths third of 8 to Ylang Ylang in Fillies' Mile over C&D (good to soft) final start. Looks capable of better again. Good third in the Fillies' Mile; bred to do even better as a 3yo; appealing type. |
|||
13th (11)  (33/1 +50%)Sacred Angel |
33/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Sacred Angel 33/1, Raced only at 6f, winning Group 3 Princess Margaret at Ascot (good to soft) last summer. Ran with credit when reaching the frame in Prix Morny at Deauville (Ramatuelle 4½ lengths ahead in second) and Cheveley Park here (1½ lengths third of 11 to Porta Fortuna) on final 2 starts. Will stay further. Useful over 6f at two; this extra 2f presents a question mark. |
|||
14th (3)  (25/1 +38%)Darnation |
25/1(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Darnation 25/1, Won Prestige at Goodwood (7f, heavy) and May Hill at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) at the end of last summer. Respectable 6¾ lengths fifth of 10 to Opera Singer in Prix Marcel Boussac at Longchamp (1m, good to firm) final start. One of 2 runners for the stable. Any easing of the ground in her favour. 3-3 on soft ground, including May Hill win; interesting granted such conditions. |
|||
15th (14)  (25/1 +0%)Star Style |
25/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Star Style 25/1, Well backed and looked something out of the ordinary when an impressive 5½-length winner on her Newbury debut. This a big ask only 16 days on but she's a very exciting prospect. Impressive in newcomers' event at Newbury; fascinating contender on second start. |
|||
16th (13)  (150/1 -127%)Star Music |
150/1(-127%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Star Music 150/1, Useful effort when third to Dance Sequence in Oh So Sharp here (7f, good to soft) last autumn but she finished well behind a couple of these when a disappointing last of 6 in Fred Darling on Newbury reappearance. Form dipped sharply in the Fred Darling; needs to prove she's trained on. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
FALLEN ANGEL took on the Irish and comprehensively beat them in their own back yard when she emerged as an impressive winner of the Moyglare at the Curragh last September. That was an outstanding performance and, given the daughter of Too Darn Hot had previously blown away the opposition when landing last year's edition of the Sweet Solera on the July course, this highly progressive filly has a major chance of obtaining Karl Burke a first Classic success. Ylang Ylang was only third in the Moyglare but blew that out of the water when she landed the Fillies' Mile on her next start. That experience of the trip could give Aidan O'Brien's sole representative an edge if stamina becomes an issue for the selection. French Group 2 winner Ramatuelle, along with Nell Gywn principles, Pretty Crystal and Dance Sequence, are others with rock-solid credentials in a fascinating renewal.
It was hard not be taken by the way FALLEN ANGEL picked up again when joined in the closing stages of the Moyglare and, with 1m likely to suit on that evidence, she can improve again and provide the increasingly-powerful Karl Burke stable with a first British Classic success. French-raider Ramatuelle is second choice ahead of Dance Sequence, who should relish the step up to 1m, and Fillies' Mile winner Ylang Ylang.
Having been so progressive and strong at the finish last season, FALLEN ANGEL (nap) gets the vote. Second choice is Ramatuelle.

|||
4th (1)  (25/1 -25%)Baileys Jubilation |
25/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Baileys Jubilation 25/1, Foaled January 31. Oasis Dream filly. Half-sister to several winners, including useful/ungenuine 5f/6f winner Nigel Nott and 2-y-o 6f winner Baileys Breathless. Dam 2-y-o 5f winner. Yard has already had 2 winning 2-y-o newcomers this year. Speedily bred; starts in a race packed with newcomers and the market should guide. |
|||
5th (8)  (12/1 -60%)Ripple Effect |
12/1(-60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Ripple Effect 12/1, Foaled January 21. Kameko filly. Half-sister to several winners, including Japanese winner Mikki Charm and useful 1m winner Ripples Effect. Dam, 5f-6f winner, half-sister to smart 2-y-o 6f/7f winner Peak To Creek. From the first crop of Kameko; Oisin Murphy rode her sire in all races; interesting. |
|||
6th (5)  (11/1 -57%)Mademoiselle |
11/1(-57%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Mademoiselle 11/1, Foaled February 18. 220,000 gns yearling, Blue Point filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including 2-y-o 5f winner Natural Force and 7f winner Centrefold. Dam unraced half-sister to very smart 6f-7f winner (stayed 9f) Regal Parade. Yard had a winning 2-y-o newcomer last month. 220,000gns yearling; by Blue Point; this debutante looks potentially above average. |
|||
7th (3)  (9/2 +63%)Jakarta |
9/2(+63%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Jakarta 9/2, Foaled May 6. Night of Thunder filly. Closely related to 1¼m winner African and half-sister to several winners, including smart winner up to 1½m Highland Chief. Dam 1¼m-1½m winner. Yard has already had 2 winning 2-y-o newcomers this season but this one is bred for further. Has a useful pedigree; stable is 2-3 with 2yos this term; interesting contender. |
|||
8th (4)  (17/2 -42%)Lucky Gift |
17/2(-42%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Lucky Gift 17/2, Foaled January 30. Dubawi filly. Dam 2-y-o 5f-6f winner (Queen Mary Stakes/Duches of Cambridge Stakes). Trainer’s newcomers command respect but Buick prefers Mountain Breeze. Wears hood. Attractively bred but Mountain Breeze looks the yard's first string; hooded on debut. |
|||
9th (10)  (33/1 +50%)Tearaway Two |
33/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Tearaway Two 33/1, 55,000 gns foal, Churchill filly. Sister to 2-y-o 1m winner Gentle Whinny and half-sister to 7f winner Celtic Warrior. Dam, 2-y-o 5f winner, half-sister to useful 2-y-o 9f/1¼m winner Wonderment. Ninth of 13 in maiden (25/1) at this C&D (good to firm) on debut 18 days ago. Down the field in C&D contest at the Craven meeting having looked green. |
|||
10th (2)  (12/1 -20%)Ballet Show |
12/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Ballet Show 12/1, Foaled February 10. Dubawi filly. Dam, 9f winner, half-sister to smart winner up to 9f Life In Motion. Trainer’s newcomers command respect but Buick prefers Mountain Breeze. Dubawi filly; one of three runners for this yard; Mountain Breeze looks first string. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
Charlie Appleby and Godolphin throw three darts at this contest and although Lucky Gift and Ballet Show both have excellent pedigrees, it is MOUNTAIN BREEZE, a close relative of three-time Group 1 winner Pinatubo, who captures the imagination as the main suggestion here. We have yet to see the best of Appleby's current crop of juveniles but this regally-bred trio suggests the ball is about to gather strong momentum. Mademoiselle and River Seine are a couple of others to monitor in the betting.
The newcomers are likely to dominate so the market should prove informative. Charlie Appleby saddles 3 well-bred newcomers with MOUNTAIN BREEZE the standout being a close relation to connections' top-class 2-y-o Pinatubo. Karl Burke won this 2 years ago with subsequent Royal Ascot winner Dramatised so the same connections' River Seine is another likely type.
There are some very interesting types among the debutantes, most notably RIPPLE EFFECT. Second choice is River Seine.

1st (5)  (11/4 +8%)The Actor |
11/4(+8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) The Actor 11/4, Showed plenty of promise amidst greenness when second of 6 in minor event at this C&D (good) on debut 19 days ago, staying on well. Can take a step forward from that first experience to open his account. Neck second in C&D contest at the Craven meeting; sets the form standard; solid claims. |
|||
2nd (6)  (6/1 +0%)Tropical Storm |
6/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Tropical Storm 6/1, An athletic sort and shaped encouragingly without given a hard time when fifth of 8 in newcomers race at Newbury (5.2f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Likely to improve with that first outing behind him. Half-brother to a useful sprinter for this yard; should build on Newbury effort. |
|||
3rd (1)  (9/2 +0%)Al Qudra |
9/2(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Al Qudra 9/2, Was the bigger-priced of his stable's duo but shaped well on debut when fourth in minor event at this C&D (good, 9/2) in April, keeping on without being knocked about. Has a bit to find with The Actor from last time, but he's open to progress. Only about 1l behind The Actor in C&D event at the Craven meeting; open to progress. |
|||
4th (2)  (16/1 +0%)Mr Chaplin |
16/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Mr Chaplin 16/1, Foaled March 1. 58,000 gns foal, 120,000 gns yearling, Without Parole colt. Half-brother to 6f winner Spenny's Lass and useful 7f-1m winner Mubtasimah. Market could be informative as yard's first 2-y-o runner of the season. 120,000gns yearling; from the first crop of Without Parole; market instructive. |
|||
5th (3)  (33/1 -32%)Saxonia |
33/1(-32%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Saxonia 33/1, Foaled April 10. 82,000 gns foal, 52,000 gns yearling. Saxon Warrior colt. Dam, 5.7f-7f winner, sister to useful 2-y-o 7f/1m winner (stayed 1½m) Caernarfon. Yard capable of readying a newcomer. 52,000gns yearling; less appealing than the other newcomers. |
|||
6th (4)  (2/1 -33%)Symbol Of Honour |
2/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Symbol Of Honour 2/1, Foaled February 9. 250,000 gns foal, 600,000 gns yearling, Havana Grey colt. Half-brother to very smart 5f-6f winner Dragon Symbol and useful winner up to 7f Celtic Champion. Dam 1¼m winner. Noteworthy newcomer for last year's winning connections. 600,000gns yearling; by Havana Grey; powerful stable; respected debutant. |
|||
7th (7)  (10/1 -25%)Yaroogh |
10/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Yaroogh 10/1, Foaled February 15. Dubawi colt. Dam, 7f winner, closely related to smart 7f-1m winner Quddwah out of very smart 1m-10.4f winner Sajjhaa. Makes plenty of appeal on paper. Attractively bred filly, by Dubawi out of a 7f winner for his connections; interesting. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
There was plenty of encouragement to be taken from THE ACTOR's never-nearer second on debut over C&D last month and that experience should stand him in good stead going forward. Richard Hannon's colt makes most appeal of those who have raced, although a big performance from newcomer Symbol Of Honour wouldn't surprise. The Havana Grey colt is a half-brother to the Group 1-placed Dragon Symbol and market support could prove significant. Al Qudra is also noted.
THE ACTOR produced a very promising first effort when narrowly denied over C&D last month and, with his trainer having won 2 of the last 4 renewals of this race, he is taken to go one better this time around. He can confirm the placings with Al Qudra from when the pair met here 19 days ago, while Symbol of Honour is one to note on debut.
It looks quite competitive among the runners with experience. SYMBOL OF HONOUR and Yaroogh are very interesting newcomers.

1st (2)  (9/2 +10%)Black Run |
9/2(+10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Black Run 9/2, Off the mark at second attempt in Goodwood novice last autumn and followed it with a good sixth in Group company at Lonchamp on return 21 days ago. Tongue tied and unlikely to have reached his limit, so one to consider on handicap debut. Tongue-tie added after dropping out in a French Group race; he's in the Dante. |
|||
2nd (6)  (9/1 -50%)Sun God |
9/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Sun God 9/1, Signs of temperament but put it all together to land a Lingfield nursery 4 months ago and further improvement can't be ruled out on turf debut. Impressive in the end at Lingfield (1m2f; 9lb lower) after doing plenty wrong in the race. |
|||
3rd (4)  (9/4 +25%)Sea The Thunder |
9/4(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Sea The Thunder 9/4, Left his fast-ground Ascot debut well behind when going down only narrowly under much softer conditions at Salisbury (1m) 4 weeks later. Similar form without having a hard time over C&D next time and should make a better 3yo, so one to note on handicap/seasonal debut. Possibly on a good mark for handicap debut; ground and stable form are the concerns. |
|||
4th (1)  (13/2 -18%)Hot Fuss |
13/2(-18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Hot Fuss 13/2, Solid record as a 2yo and looked an improved modely despite not being seen to best effect when fourth at Bath on reappearance, running on late having met trouble. Looks a player up in trip. The most exposed of these but has the form to feature and he should stay. |
|||
5th (7)  (20/1 -67%)Love Warrior |
20/1(-67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Love Warrior 20/1, Showed promise when runner-up at York on debut, but still looked green when fifth of 8 in maiden at Lingfield (8f, AW, 3/1) next time. Reappearance easy to excuse, so he's not one to write off yet. Best run last year was on debut; early days and he's in the right hands to pay his way. |
|||
6th (5)  (7/1 -75%)Mai Dubai |
7/1(-75%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Mai Dubai 7/1, Lightly-raced winner. 4/5, creditable third of 7 in nursery at Wolverhampton (9.5f). Off 7 months and gelded since last seen and very much the sort to make a better 3yo. Retains plenty of potential and he kicks off his 3yo campaign now gelded. |
|||
7th (3)  (3/1 +33%)Cynosure |
3/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Cynosure 3/1, Well-bred sort who set a solid platform last season and didn't need to improve to score readily at Lingfield on reappearance. Mark looks fair and he's open to improvement over this longer trip, so leading claims. Still looked a work in progress when edging home in a 1m AW novice at Lingfield. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Cynosure opened his account a shade cosily on his reappearance in a novice at Lingfield last month. His current rating of 85 shouldn't prevent another bold bid, but there is a sneaking suspicion that BLACK RUN could be the better handicapped of the two. The son of Nathaniel shaped better than the beaten distance suggests on his sixth-placed finish in a Group 3 at Longchamp in April and he might have too much class for these rivals. Sea The Thunder and Mai Dubai also warrant closer examination.
CYNOSURE is yet to run a bad race and his pedigree points to improvement now upped in trip, so he gets the nod over Mai Dubai, who should also make a better 3yo. Sea The Thunder and Black Run also have potential, so it could be a competitive event for the numbers.
Nearly all bring clear promise. BLACK RUN is the only runner with a fancy entry (Dante) and his French run should have brought him on.

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.
