|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
(1)  (10/3 -48%)Beronia |
10/3(-48%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Beronia 10/3, Stuck to her task when third of 13 in novice event at Thirsk (6f, good) 13 days ago, barely adequate test. Likely to improve, particularly over 7f. Engaged 5.15 Newmarket Friday. Placed in two 6f northern novices and another here yesterday; 7f can help. |
|||
1st (4)  (2/1 +20%)Remaat |
2/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Remaat 2/1, Much sharper second start when finding only one too good in 11 in maiden (15/2) at Kempton (6f) 24 days ago, running on. 7f will suit so she's an obvious contender. The form of her Kempton second reads well and bred to appreciate this step up in trip. |
|||
2nd (2)  (6/1 +8%)New Charter |
6/1(+8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) New Charter 6/1, Promising debut when second on the Rowley but unable to match that level both starts since, fourth of 8 in novice event at Salisbury (6f, good, 5/2) 13 days ago. Isn't really crying out for 7f either, though this is unlikely to be a thorough test. Talented but keen-going tendencies spell some danger now raised in trip. |
|||
3rd (3)  (100/1 -6035%)Paradise Springs |
100/1(-6035%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Paradise Springs 100/1, Foaled March 8. Ghaiyyath filly. Closely related to very smart winner up to 1m Naval Crown and half-sister to useful 7f winner Spring Promise. Trainer’s newcomers command utmost respect. Newcomer from a yard that's won the last two renewals of this with quality fillies. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Remaat improved from her debut to chase home a well-bred filly (engaged in the Empress Stakes here at 2.15) in a Kempton maiden earlier this month and rates a serious player here. New Charter has ability and can pay her way in handicap company before too long. However, as a close relative of Group 1-winning sprinter Naval Crown, it is PARADISE SPRINGS who stands out based on potential. Charlie Appleby boasts a fine strike-rate with his juveniles and this Godolphin home-bred can boost the trainer's statistics further.
None of the 4 can be safely ruled out, but BERONIA is crying out for 7f so she gets the tentative nod if taking up this engagement. Remaat is an obvious threat on form, while support for Paradise Springs on debut would put a different slant on things.
Newcomer PARADISE SPRINGS hails from a yard that has won the last two runnings of this race with fillies bound for Group-race honours.

(6)  (150/1 -50%)Naina |
150/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Naina 150/1, Only modest form when ½-length third of 9 to reopposing Tequila Rose in maiden (22/1) at Brighton 32 days ago. Big outsider. Engaged 2.20 Yarmouth Friday. Well beaten at Yarmouth yesterday and out of her depth here. |
|||
1st (2)  (10/1 +0%)Celandine |
10/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Celandine 10/1, Green on debut and different proposition when proving 1¾ lengths too strong for the reopposing Pouting at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 16 days later. More to come from her. Made pretty much all when pulling away from Pouting at Windsor 19 days ago. |
|||
2nd (11)  (5/1 -11%)Tales Of The Heart |
5/1(-11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Tales Of The Heart 5/1, 400,000 gns yearling who made a winning start to her career over 6f at Kempton 24 days ago, taking a while to get going but coming home strongly. Sure to progress for a yard with a good record in this. Impressed with finishing effort at Kempton; stable has won this twice in four years. |
|||
3rd (1)  (9/1 -50%)Arabian Dusk |
9/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Arabian Dusk 9/1, 525,000 gns breeze-up buy who shaped well when second of 12 on her 6.5f Doncaster debut. Can be expected to improve. Promising send at Doncaster and the winner ran okay to be seventh in the Albany. |
|||
4th (4)  (25/1 -150%)It Ain't Two |
25/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) It Ain't Two 25/1, Won a 5f Rowley Course maiden on debut in April. Poorly drawn when only eighth of 15 in 5f York listed race next time and back to winning ways in 6f Carlisle novice since. Won two of her three starts but others with greater potential appeal more. |
|||
5th (9)  (50/1 -355%)Santa Savana |
50/1(-355%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Santa Savana 50/1, Bred to be useful and made a winning start to her career over 6f at Leicester (soft) last month, coming nicely clear in the latter stages. Another in this line-up who should have more to offer. Looked good at Leicester and there's some substance to that form; hard to rule out. |
|||
6th (8)  (80/1 +0%)Queue Dos |
80/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Queue Dos 80/1, 28/1, third of 8 in maiden (28/1) at Bath (5.7f, firm) on debut 5 days ago, late headway after slow start. Should do better but this is a big jump in class. Bath debut was promising but highly questionable whether she's up to this level. |
|||
7th (10)  (50/1 -317%)Sunshine State |
50/1(-317%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Sunshine State 50/1, Overcame unfavourable circumstances to make a winning debut at Chelmsford (6f) 9 days ago, quickening well once she got the hang of things to get up near the line. Looks sure to progress. Did well to win over 6f at Chelmsford from where she was positioned turning for home. |
|||
8th (3)  (100/1 -733%)Havana Gila |
100/1(-733%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Havana Gila 100/1, Left her Kempton AW debut behind when landing a 5f York novice 23 days later. The return to 6f will suit and she looks capable of better again. It was over 5f when off the mark at York but should have no trouble returning to 6f. |
|||
9th (12)  (100/1 -2122%)Teej A |
100/1(-2122%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Teej A 100/1, Mehmas filly who has progressed well, winning over 6f at Chester (maiden) and Epsom (conditions race, soft ground) in May. The Epsom form has taken a couple of knocks this week but she still appeals as one who can go on to better things. Big player. Beat the Coventry winner at Chester and duly followed up in the Woodcote; good form claims. |
|||
10th (7)  (80/1 -471%)Pouting |
80/1(-471%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Pouting 80/1, Cost £150,000 at the breeze-ups and has shown plenty of promise when runner-up in maiden/novice events at Windsor, latterly beaten 1¾ lengths by the reopposing Celandine. Met a bit of trouble on that occasion and remains capable of better. Put in her place by Celandine latest; may have her work cut out to reverse those placings. |
|||
11th (13)  (100/1 -203%)Tequila Rose |
100/1(-203%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Tequila Rose 100/1, Second on 5f Catterick debut before going one better at Brighton (6f) 4 weeks later. The form is only modest, though. It was by no means a strong race in which she justified odds-on favouritism at Brighton. |
|||
12th (5)  (100/1 -400%)Miss Nifty |
100/1(-400%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Miss Nifty 100/1, Sprung a 25/1 surprise on her 6f Brighton debut 11 days, green early but running on well to lead close home. More to come but a big chunk of improvement will be needed if she's to make it 2-2 here. Winning debut but that form is well beneath what some in here have achieved. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
The Woodcote form has taken a couple of knocks since Oaks day at Epsom but Teej A won it with something in hand and could still rise to this latest challenge. However, with eight other last-time-out winners in opposition, there is deep potential here. TALES OF THE HEART, who cost 400,000gns as a yearling, appeals most after making a striking impression with a nice turn of foot to score on debut at Kempton. It Ain't Two, Celandine and Santa Savana are other progressive types to consider.
TALES OF THE HEART looked a useful prospect when striking on her Kempton debut earlier this month and can provide Ralph Beckett with a third win in this listed contest since 2020. Teej A's Epsom form took a couple of knocks earlier in the week but Karl Burke's filly is still feared most ahead of Arabian Dusk.
It goes against the grain to trust a maiden at this level but the Crisfords are willing to take the plunge with ARABIAN DUSK.

1st (2)  (5/2 -67%)King Of Conquest |
5/2(-67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) King Of Conquest 5/2, Completed a 4-timer when landing a listed race at Goodwood last May and made the most of a good opportunity in quite comprehensive style when landing a similar event there (12f, good to firm) just under 3 weeks ago, beating Aimeric by 2¾ lengths. Sure to be on the premises again. Accounted for Aimeric in Goodwood Listed latest; leading claims despite 3lb penalty. |
|||
2nd (3)  (11/2 -38%)Aimeric |
11/2(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Aimeric 11/2, Bookended last season with a pair of wins and, after 8 months off, proved better than ever when scoring at Lingfield (11.6f) in May. Good effort when 2¾ lengths second to King of Conquest in listed race at Goodwood (12f, good to firm) earlier this month and is now 3 lb better of with that rival. Second to King Of Conquest in 1m4f Goodwood Listed latest; 3lb better off with him now. |
|||
3rd (5)  (14/1 -17%)Deauville Legend |
14/1(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Deauville Legend 14/1, Most progressive at 3 yrs, winning twice at Group level before excellent fourth in the Melbourne Cup. However, wasn't able to match that last year and has fared no better in blinkers both outings this season, not really looking up for a scrap at Goodwood (12f) earlier in the month. Very smart at 3 but below that level since, including behind two of these latest. |
|||
4th (6)  (100/1 -614%)Verbier |
100/1(-614%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Verbier 100/1, Wolverhampton debut winner and took her form up a notch in listed event at Lingfield in December. Matched that in a first-time hood without it getting to the bottom of her after 5 months off when fourth at Ayr (10f, good to firm) last month and this step up in trip looks sure to suit. Low mileage; improved again when fourth in 1m2f Listed on return; should stay 1m4f. |
|||
5th (4)  (100/1 -2122%)Crystal Delight |
100/1(-2122%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Crystal Delight 100/1, Plenty of creditable efforts last year for the now-retired William Jarvis and well backed, ran out an emphatic winner from the front on debut for new yard at Epsom in April. Found another chunk of improvements when bolting up at York (11.8f, good) since, so is one to keep on the right side of. Has readily made all in two handicaps for new yard; well worth place in higher grade. |
|||
6th (1)  (100/1 -1329%)Kemari |
100/1(-1329%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Kemari 100/1, First win since the 2021 Queen's Vase when seeing off 4 rivals in this corresponding event 12 months ago. Failed badly to back that up 6 weeks later in Geoffrey Freer Stakes at Newbury (13.3f, good) and not seen since. Yard also saddle King of Conquest so a watching brief is advised on return. Second and first in last two runnings off this but off 315 days and Buick looks elsewhere. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
KING OF CONQUEST was comprehensive in holding runner-up Aimeric when they clashed in the Tapster Stakes and is hard to see past as he bids to follow up that Listed success, while granting Charlie Appleby a third consecutive winner of this race in the process. His Goodwood rival again rates the chief danger, although Kemari, who won this 12 months ago, is not to be underestimated. Crystal Delight is 2-2 for Harry Eustace, but has more on at this level.
Charlie Appleby's quiet start to the season has been well publicised (had only 6 Royal Ascot runners) but KING OF CONQUEST could provide just the tonic for Moulton Paddocks stable. He was back to his very best when accounting for Aimeric at Goodwood earlier this month and can confirm his superiority with that rival despite being 3 lb worse off. Crystal Delight has found a chunk of improvement since joining Harry Eustace, so he rounds off the shortlist stepping up in grade.
Godolphin's KING OF CONQUEST can confirm recent Goodwood superiority over Aimeric despite having to concede him 3lb this time.

(1)  (3/1 +40%)Tiber Flow |
3/1(+40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Tiber Flow 3/1, Brought down in 1895 Duke of York Stakes at York but he bounced back in fine style to land John of Gaunt Stakes at Haydock (7.2f, good to firm) 21 days ago with a bit in hand. Much respected despite conceding weight all round here. Took his 7f record to 3-4 when leading late on in Haydock Group 3 latest; should go well. |
|||
1st (3)  (2/1 +11%)Noble Dynasty |
2/1(+11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Noble Dynasty 2/1, Low-mileage 6-y-o who took his form up a notch when readily landing 10-runner handicap at Newmarket (7f, good) 57 days ago. Goes up in grade but this halt-brother to the high-class miler Barney Roy looks to have more to offer. Big player. Dominated a 7f Rowley course handicap last month and bold bid likely again. |
|||
2nd (4)  (4/1 +11%)Nostrum |
4/1(+11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Nostrum 4/1, Resumed in 2023 with a 1m listed win here but he came in last of six and looked an awkward ride too in the Mile at Sandown on his reappearance this time around. Has something to prove now. Disappointing lately but a danger to all if a gelding operation has a positive effect. |
|||
3rd (6)  (25/1 -213%)Witch Hunter |
25/1(-213%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Witch Hunter 25/1, Won the Buckingham Palace Handicap at Ascot and Group 2 Hungerford at Newbury last season. Not quite hit the same heights so far this term despite making the frame in the Lockinge and Queen Anne Stakes at Royal Ascot. Still shortlisted. Held up; Won Group 2 over 7f last year; fourth in Royal Ascot Group 1 last week;. |
|||
4th (5)  (4/1 +11%)Pogo |
4/1(+11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Pogo 4/1, Took this contest in 2022 and he comes here on the back of a solid 1½ lengths third of 11 to Tiber Flow in John of Gaunt Stakes at Haydock (7.2f, good to firm) 21 days ago. Ought to be thereabouts. Won this in 2022 and third last year; third to Tiber Flow in Haydock Listed latest. |
|||
5th (2)  (100/1 -525%)Dear My Friend |
100/1(-525%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Dear My Friend 100/1, Developed into a smart performer on AW at the start of this year, winning 3 times over 1m, including a Lingfield listed. Yet to match that form in two turf runs since but he faced a stiff task in Newbury's Lockinge Stakes last time so possibilities. Really smart on AW but has yet to better useful form on turf; others preferred. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
Noble Dynasty thumped runaway Buckingham Palace winner English Oak on the Rowley Mile last month and he is a fascinating contender back at Group 3 level, but POGO shades preference. The winner of this contest in 2022 before taking third last year, the admirable eight-year-old arrives having made the frame behind Tiber Flow in the John Of Gaunt at Haydock. The winner must shoulder a 3lb penalty now, however, and is far from certain to confirm the form. Nostrum possesses undoubted talent but he needs to bounce back from a lacklustre return in the bet365 Mile at Sandown.
Charlie Appleby's NOBLE DYNASTY takes a step up in grade here but this half-brother to the high-class miler Barney Roy looks capable of better so gets the nod in an open Criterion Stakes. John of Gaunt winner Tiber Flow rates a big threat though, while Queen Anne fourth Witch Hunter and 2022 victor Pogo can't be discounted easily either.
Nostrum could bounce back after a gelding operation but preference is for NOBLE DYNASTY.

(5)  (7/1 +42%)Surveyor |
7/1(+42%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Surveyor 7/1, Bred to be useful and, after 7 months off, showed a good attitude when winning maiden at Lingfield (8f, AW) in April. Not seen to best effect on handicap debut next time, before racing too freely when down the field at Southwell 37 days ago. Hood now reached for. Too keen to last home at Sandown latest and sports a hood now; retains potential. |
|||
1st (6)  (11/1 +21%)Mercury Day |
11/1(+21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Mercury Day 11/1, Chased home the now-smart Frost At Dawn on final 2-y-o start/last run for Ralph Beckett and made a winning start for current yard in a Nottingham maiden (8.3f, good) in May. Could still have more to offer at this trip as she makes her handicap debut. Won Nottingham maiden on reappearance for new yard; handicap debut. |
|||
2nd (4)  (20/1 -400%)Aurora's Beauty |
20/1(-400%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Aurora's Beauty 20/1, 600,000 gns yearling who was much improved from her debut when third in maiden at this venue (8f, good to firm) in April. Wasn't at the same level when third in similar event at Windsor 40 days ago, so she needs to resume her progress on her handicap bow. Best effort when third in Rowley Course maiden in April; handicap debut. |
|||
3rd (1)  (3/1 +33%)Queen's Reign |
3/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Queen's Reign 3/1, Has shown much improved form sent handicapping this year, suited by the step up in trip when winning 11-runner contest at Goodwood (8f, good) last month. Scored only narrowly but she remains unexposed so could be capable of following up. Nudged up only 2lb for latest Goodwood win and probably has more to offer. |
|||
4th (3)  (100/1 -2400%)Islanova |
100/1(-2400%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Islanova 100/1, From a family that the yard knows well and left her debut form behind when runner-up in maiden at Bath (8f, good) on return. Left poorly placed when fifth of 12 in minor event at Goodwood last time, so she could yet do better as she goes handicapping. Has shown promise in her qualifying runs but a mark of 80 demands improvement. |
|||
5th (2)  (66/1 -4300%)Speriamo |
66/1(-4300%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Speriamo 66/1, Successful over C&D last summer and shaped better than the result when eighth of 13 at this venue (8f, good to firm) on her latest outing, faring best of those who raced in the centre. Back down to her last winning mark so she's not written off. Won off this mark over C&D last summer and better than result on Rowley course last time. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Soft ground didn't appear to suit SURVEYOR at Sandown last month, but she ought to fare better under quicker conditions. James Fanshawe's filly chased home some smart types in maiden/novice events last year so her current mark is well within range, especially if the first-time hood helps her to settle. Goodwood scorer Queen's Reign can give another good account of herself from 2lb higher, while Aurora's Beauty is also noted.
Upped to 1m, QUEEN'S REIGN continued her progress when making her second handicap start a winning one at Goodwood last time and she can score again with the potential of further improvement to come. A pair of handicap debutantes could be the main dangers, with the well-bred Islanova feared most ahead of Mercury Day.
Ed Walker's QUEEN'S REIGN (nap) has made steady progress and is taken to defy a small rise for her Goodwood win.

(6)  (22/1 -38%)Cherry Burton |
22/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Cherry Burton 22/1, Won a Doncaster maiden in April then was flying too high in the Oaks Trial at Lingfield since. Has had a break and, while mark demands improvement, she's still unexposed. Bit to prove after Lingfield Oaks Trial (28-1) but, like all of these, she is not exposed. |
|||
1st (2)  (17/2 -6%)Mrs Twig |
17/2(-6%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Mrs Twig 17/2, Got back on the up when landing an 8-runner event at Kempton in emphatic fashion a month ago. More required but the runner-up has given that form a solid look and she's not one to rule out. 1m3f and 1m4f wins on Kempton AW; not so potent front-running at Newbury in between. |
|||
2nd (5)  (4/1 +0%)Alhattan |
4/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Alhattan 4/1, Promising individual who opened her account at Newcastle in January. Best effort to date when a narrow second at Salisbury last time and shapes like she'll get this trip, so one to consider. Short-headed in handicap at Salisbury (1m2f, good to firm) and 1m4f looks well worth a go. |
|||
3rd (3)  (13/2 -189%)Precious Jewel |
13/2(-189%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Precious Jewel 13/2, Confirmed debut promise when winning 6-runner novice event at Rowley course in May. That form has been boosted since and the drop in trip was against her last time, so worth a chance to get back on the up. Newmarket 1m4f win second start; lightly raced, well-bred filly could have more to offer. |
|||
4th (4)  (100/1 -4344%)Candle Of Dubai |
100/1(-4344%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Candle Of Dubai 100/1, Promising start to career when runner-up first 2 starts and responded well to an attacking ride when opening her account in a Chelmsford novice (1¼m) 23 days ago. This tougher now handicapping but she's going the right way and looks sure to be suited by this increase in trip. There's stamina in the family and 1m4f for this handicap debut looks interesting. |
|||
5th (1)  (80/1 -1500%)Meribella |
80/1(-1500%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Meribella 80/1, From a good family and made a winning start over 7f at this course last August. Only fourth of 5 in listed event at Newbury on sole subsequent outing and handicapper has taken no chances with the mark. Won debut here (good to firm) last August; fourth of five in 1m2f Listed event at Newbury. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Cases can be made for all of these but none more so than CANDLE OF DUBAI, who got off the mark in a novice event over 1m2f at Chelmsford last time. The daughter of Zoffany could improve further now switched to handicaps and a mark of 81 should be workable. Precious Jewel was behind the selection when last seen but might get closer on 4lb better terms, while Alhattan and Mrs Twig are best of the rest.
The form of PRECIOUS JEWEL's win in May looks strong and she shaped as if still in good order dropped in trip next time. Back to 1m4f for her handicap debut, she is worth a chance to get the better of Candle of Dubai, who arrives on the up. Alhattan is also of interest.
This is an unexposed field but the three to concentrate on could be CANDLE OF DUBAI, Alhattan and Precious Jewel.

1st (6)  (28/1 -12%)Bint Al Daar |
28/1(-12%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Bint Al Daar 28/1, Bagged handicaps over a mile here last summer and added to her tally on the AW in November. However, she hasn't made much of an impact in 2 starts since returning to action last month. 1m course winner last August but well held on both starts this year. |
|||
2nd (7)  (9/2 -64%)Mafnood |
9/2(-64%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Mafnood 9/2, Winner of 1m Haydock novice as a 2-y-o and returned with solid place efforts upped to 1¼m on first 2 starts of this season. Rather one-paced in first-time blinkers (on again here) at Sandown a fortnight ago but he didn't enjoy the best of runs that day and is certainly one to consider. Better than result in blinkers latest; interesting taking on older opposition. |
|||
3rd (3)  (9/1 -125%)Majestic |
9/1(-125%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Majestic 9/1, Winless since landing the 2022 Cambridgeshire but has largely acquitted himself well since, including on all but one of his 4 starts this season. Best work at the finish when third at Sandown (1¼m, good) recently and he's a strong candidate off the same mark. Generally consistent 6yo who bounced back from rare below par run when third latest. |
|||
4th (2)  (33/1 -1000%)Elegancia |
33/1(-1000%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Elegancia 33/1, Useful dual winner over this trip last year, latterly a fast-ground Ascot handicap in September. Out of her depth on last 3 starts in Group/listed company but this is a more realistic assignment and it wouldn't be the biggest of surprises if she were to get back on track. Two 1m2f wins last year; remote fourth in Group 3 on return and this more realistic. |
|||
5th (4)  (14/1 -133%)Qitaal |
14/1(-133%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Qitaal 14/1, Rejoined former yard for just 4,000 gns following sole outing for Ken Condon in 2022 but proved that his ability remains intact when landing a Doncaster handicap (1¼m, soft) following a lengthy absence in March. Decent effort at York last time and he'll be dangerous if allowed a soft lead. This looks less competitive than the York race he was fifth in last time; not discounted. |
|||
6th (5)  (10/1 -67%)Sniper's Eye |
10/1(-67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Sniper's Eye 10/1, Opened his account in straightforward fashion when landing a 10-runner minor event at Southwell (1m) in September. Should come on for his encouraging belated reappearance over this trip in a first-tim hood (retained) at Chelmsford 9 days ago and he needs taking seriously. Entitled to come on for recent return and he was placed over C&D last June. |
|||
7th (1)  (100/1 -1438%)Machete |
100/1(-1438%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Machete 100/1, Winner of just one of his 15 starts on turf for Fabrice Chappet in France but shaped well on debut for this yard when fourth of 10 in the Zetland Gold Cup at Redcar (1¼m, soft) last month. Best to draw a line through subsequent York run and should give a good account, provided he handles conditions. Promising start for this yard at Redcar (soft) and excuses at York since. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
ELEGANCIA has been struggling in higher grades since she won her sole previous handicap start at Ascot last September. The daughter of Lope De Vega accounted for a decent field that day and merits plenty of respect off just a 4lb higher mark. Majestic is a consistent performer who is likely to be in the mix once again. Mafnood and Qitaal complete the shortlist.
There's a good chance that QITAAL will be allowed his own way out in front and he could prove hard to peg back with Oisin Murphy in the hot-seat. Mafnood didn't get the rub of the green at Sandown and is feared most ahead of Sniper's Eye and Majestic, both of whom need a strong pace to aim at, which is far from assured in this contest. Elegancia may well resume her progress now back in handicap company, so she needs a second look, too.
Sole 3yo MAFNOOD might prove the answer to this finale. Elegancia is second choice.

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.
