1st (2)  (1.75/1 +30%)Carolina Reaper |
1.75/1(+30%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Carolina Reaper 1.75/1, Twice-raced filly. 25/1, excellent 2 lengths sixth of 16 to Snellen in Chesham Stakes at Royal Ascot (7f, good to firm) 28 days ago. Good form claims. Improved from her debut when a close sixth in the Chesham; that form sets the standard. |
|||
2nd (10)  (16/1 +0%)Ambiente Amigo |
16/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Ambiente Amigo 16/1, Foaled April 18. Postponed filly. Half-sister to 1m winner Scherzo and useful 1¼m-12.4f winner Barenboim. Dam, 1¼m winner, half-sister to very smart winner up to 9f Mufarrh. Betting can prove a good indicator. Something to like on pedigree and stable has the occasion winning 2yo newcomer. |
|||
3rd (5)  (22/1 -38%)Phoenix Duchess |
22/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Phoenix Duchess 22/1, 11/2, fourth of 10 in maiden at Goodwood (6f, good to firm) 36 days ago, not knocked about. Likely to improve again. Possibilities. Has shown some ability in two of her three starts, but improvement is needed. |
|||
4th (11)  (3/1 +50%)Squeaker |
3/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Squeaker 3/1, Promising Saxon Warrior filly. 10/1, second of 10 in maiden at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) on debut 21 days ago, running on. Can build on it and is one to consider. Just beaten on her Doncaster debut; probably needs to improve, but that is possible. |
|||
5th (1)  (3.33/1 -67%)Al Hujaija |
3.33/1(-67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Al Hujaija 3.33/1, Promising individual. 20/1, second of 8 in minor event at Newbury (6f, good to firm) 16 days ago, clear of rest. Should improve further. Player. Improved from debut when just beaten at Newbury last time; extra furlong should suit. |
|||
6th (4)  (18/1 -140%)Oops |
18/1(-140%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Oops 18/1, Lightly-raced filly. 16/1, good third of 10 in nursery at Ascot (6f, good) 8 days ago, nearest finish. May do better still back at 7f so she's one for the shortlist. In frame in three of her four starts; should run her race, but vulnerable to an improver. |
|||
7th (7)  (40/1 -150%)Asteverdi |
40/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Asteverdi 40/1, Foaled March 12. 24,000 gns yearling, Advertise filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including 2-y-o 6f winner Owney Madden and 7f/1m winner Carouse. Dam 1¼m-15f winner who stayed 2½m. Noteworthy newcomer. Stable enjoying a fine year with its 2yos including first time out; market revealing. |
|||
8th (8)  (14/1 +0%)Marie's Secret |
14/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Marie's Secret 14/1, Twice-raced filly. Third of 10 in minor event at Thirsk (6f, good to firm, 16/1) 17 days ago, running on. Open to more improvement. Can go well. Beaten less than a length on her second start, but not sure to be suited by extra furlong. |
|||
9th (6)  (40/1 -60%)War Chimes |
40/1(-60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) War Chimes 40/1, Foaled April 12. €62,000 yearling, Summer Front filly. Dam, useful US winner up to 9f (French 2-y-o 6.5f/7.5f winner) who stayed 11f, half-sister to useful 1½m-15f winner Chipiron. Market can guide. Something to like on pedigree and stable can get one ready first time; check market. |
|||
10th (3)  (14/1 +13%)Hagwa |
14/1(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Hagwa 14/1, 12/1, fifth of 6 in maiden at this C&D (good to firm) on debut 21 days ago, slowly away. Can build on it now. Fifth of six on her debut over C&D; needs to improve. |
|||
11th (9)  (150/1 -200%)Union Jackie |
150/1(-200%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Union Jackie 150/1, Lightly-raced filly. Ninth of 12 in maiden (22/1) at Chelmsford City (6f) 30 days ago. Has lots to find on form. Out of the frame in four starts; longer trip should suit, but still hard to enthuse over. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
AL HUJAIJA took a big leap forward to go down narrowly at Newbury just over a fortnight ago and, given the way she finished off her race on that occasion, this extra furlong should suit. Squeaker shaped with plenty of promise to finish runner-up at Doncaster on debut, despite being slowly away, and improvement is likely. Carolina Reaper wasn't disgraced when sixth behind Snellen in the Chesham at Royal Ascot last month and will appreciate these calmer waters.
Roger Varian's AL HUJAIJA shaped very well when runner-up at Newbury last time and looks the way to go with the extra furlong a plus too for this Kodiac filly. Carolina Reaper also has the form to play a big part and is next on the list ahead of Squeaker and Oops who can fight it out for minor honours.
This can go to CAROLINA REAPER who sets a useful standard on her close sixth in the Chesham four weeks ago.

1st (4)  (5/1 +29%)Equiano Springs |
5/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Equiano Springs 5/1, Not getting any younger and yet to put his best foot forward this year. That said, there were positives to glean from his Haydock effort (7f, good to firm) on penultimate start and this C&D winner (also successful 3 times on the other course here) is not without hope back at 6f off a reduced mark. Goes well at Newmarket and penultimate run was encouraging; on a dangerous mark; chance. |
|||
2nd (3)  (4/1 -14%)Abate |
4/1(-14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Abate 4/1, C&D winner last season and already a winner of 2 handicaps this time round. Didn't do a great deal wrong when third off 1 lb higher at Hamilton (5f, good) last time but likely to find one or two too good here, too. Having a good summer and he has a good record over C&D; one to take seriously. |
|||
3rd (6)  (5/1 +50%)Capote's Dream |
5/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Capote's Dream 5/1, Prolific in 2021 but failed to add to his tally in handicaps last year. Remains capable of winning a race off this sort of mark judged on this season's evidence but some of these nevertheless make more appeal. On losing run but down in the weights and he retains ability; return to 6f in his favour. |
|||
4th (5)  (12/1 -243%)Almaty Star |
12/1(-243%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Almaty Star 12/1, Got back on track after 6 months off when second of 10 in minor event at Kempton (6f) in April. However, he disappointed (not for the first time) when odds on for a Doncaster novice since and improvement needed now handicapping in a first-time hood. Flopped last time but the form of his first three runs is strong; been gelded; hood on now. |
|||
5th (2)  (11/1 -69%)Mokaatil |
11/1(-69%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Mokaatil 11/1, Hit the target off a 3 lb higher mark at Sandown last summer and wasn't beaten far in the Epsom "Dash" on penultimate start. Bettered that when third at Nottingham (6f, good to firm) since and he's one to consider. Down in the weights and ran quite well last time; one to consider dropped in class. |
|||
6th (9)  (12/1 +14%)Epic Express |
12/1(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Epic Express 12/1, Produced his best effort yet when seeing off 9 rivals in a C&D handicap (good) in May. However, that was in a lower-grade race and he was put in his place off this 4 lb higher mark at Yarmouth next time. 6f winner on the other course here in May; below par latest (7f); up in class. |
|||
7th (7)  (3.33/1 +17%)Just A Spark |
3.33/1(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Just A Spark 3.33/1, Progressive on AW, completing a hat-trick in 5f Southwell handicap in April. Opened turf account at the fourth attempt over C&D (good) last time (second has won since) and she has to enter calculations up 3 lb. Three 5f AW wins; took form to next level with C&D win last month; could be more to come. |
|||
8th (8)  (6.5/1 +35%)Hover On The Wind |
6.5/1(+35%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Hover On The Wind 6.5/1, Made the frame all 3 starts at 2 yrs and placed in 6f handicaps at Doncaster and Lingfield for new yard this year (gelded since latest start). Still, he will need to improve for the addition of blinkers in order to get his head in front in this contest. Consistent five-race maiden; gelded since latest; new headgear could help; unexposed. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Just A Spark has been given a 3lb rise for her game success over C&D last month and there appears to no reason to suggest why she won't go close again. James Ferguson applies blinkers for the first time to the newly gelded Hover On The Wind, who merits respect, but the vote goes to ABATE. The seven-year-old has been in fine form so far this season, having won twice already, and, although beaten at Hamilton last time, he is capable of getting back to winning ways.
A chance is taken on EQUIANO SPRINGS, who is now 2 lb below his last winning mark and a reproduction of his Haydock effort at the end of May would bring him firmly into the reckoning. The 9-y-o paid the price for racing up with the pace in a strongly-run contest over 7f at York since and dropping back in trip here looks a good move. Just A Spark scored over C&D last time and should be on the premises once again, while Mokaatil is also shortlisted.
Just A Spark is progressing well but ABATE has looked as good as ever this year and he can register his third C&D success.

1st (10)  (5/1 -11%)Dutch Decoy |
5/1(-11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Dutch Decoy 5/1, Five-time 7f/1m winner in 2022 (twice over C&D). Knocking firmly on the door in recent starts, likely to have gone close had he not been so far back when third at Sandown (1m) 2 weeks ago. Worth considering from same mark in present groove. 2-2 over C&D and rarely runs a bad race; again ran well when third at Sandown last time. |
|||
2nd (8)  (6/1 +33%)Hafeet Alain |
6/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Hafeet Alain 6/1, Represents a yard in good form and relished the return to front-running tactics to land a C&D handicap under today's pilot last month, in command over 1f out and kept up to work. Remains with handicapping scope but this undoubtedly tougher. 5lb higher than when making all over C&D last time, but still favourably treated. |
|||
3rd (2)  (8.5/1 +23%)Bopedro |
8.5/1(+23%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Bopedro 8.5/1, Irish Cambridgeshire winner in 2021 who struck for this yard on the Rowley Mile course here in April. Has run well whilst shaping as though 7f is an inadequate test on 2 of his last 3 starts and the return to 1m rates a plus. Visor discarded. Won on the Rowley Mile in April and ran well in Buckingham Palace last month; contender. |
|||
4th (9)  (8.5/1 -6%)Liberty Lane |
8.5/1(-6%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Liberty Lane 8.5/1, Impressive winner on sole start at 2yrs and built on that when runner-up behind Waipiro on return in April. Far from disgraced in Dante next time but he'll need to settle better than he did in Golden Gates Handicap at Royal Ascot (10f) latest. Ease in trip may help and he's still low mileage. Well held in the Dante and Golden Gates Handicap, but return to 1m may be a good move. |
|||
5th (12)  (3/1 +63%)Saxon King |
3/1(+63%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Saxon King 3/1, Good type physically who is steadily progressive, gaining third career success at Chester (7.6f) in June. Not seen to best effect in unfavoured group when midfield in Britannia at the Royal Meeting and feasible to think he could have more to offer on back of just 8 starts. Two wins this year and ran better than it looked in the Britannia; respected. |
|||
6th (5)  (16/1 -78%)Indemnify |
16/1(-78%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Indemnify 16/1, Made light of an 8-month absence to land 9-runner Sandown handicap (1m) in May. Changed hands for £125,000 after and encouragement to glean from his fifth back at that track/trip 14 days ago, arguably doing too much too soon. Ought to be more to come on back of just 8 career starts. Two wins in the spring and fair effort on stable debut, but bit more needed; hood on. |
|||
7th (13)  (25/1 -39%)Maysong |
25/1(-39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Maysong 25/1, Building up a good record under this pilot, holding off Dutch Decoy when back to winning ways at Sandown (1m) in June. Hard to knock his efforts from career-high mark either start since but the assessor may just have him right. Two wins this year, but behind two of these at Sandown last time; needs to bounce back. |
|||
8th (6)  (14/1 +30%)First View |
14/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) First View 14/1, Lightly raced for age and proved better than ever when landing London Mile at Kempton in September. Below par both starts in Meydan earlier this year but entitled to come forward for his run at Sandown (1m) in June. Cheekpieces refitted now. Behind a couple of these at Sandown last time and plenty more is needed. |
|||
9th (4)  (25/1 -56%)Bass Player |
25/1(-56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Bass Player 25/1, Doncaster maiden winner (7f) on debut who quickly made up in to a useful performer thereafter last term. However, yet to scale same heights so far this term and others arrive with more pressing claims despite an easing mark. Comfortably held in his last six starts despite sliding down the weights; others preferred. |
|||
10th (11)  (6/1 -50%)Havana Blue |
6/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Havana Blue 6/1, Opened his account in 7f handicap on the Rowley Mile in May and progressed again when following up in good style on this course (7f, good) recently. More needed up 6 lb but he's clearly progressive and completely unexposed at 1m. Lots to like. On a hat-trick after wins on the two courses here, but the extra furlong may be a problem. |
|||
11th (1)  (40/1 -150%)Justice Protecol |
40/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Justice Protecol 40/1, Useful and progressive handicapper who gained fourth win from last 5 starts when successful on dirt at Jebel Ali (1m) in March. Returns to these shores operating from career-high mark but his task is to prove himself as effective on turf. Four wins on dirt at Jebel Ali last winter; well beaten only turf start; run may be needed. |
|||
12th (7)  (9/1 -13%)One Nation |
9/1(-13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) One Nation 9/1, Dual winner (latterly here) last season and acquitted himself well from the front twice at up to 10f in Meydan earlier this year. However, offered very little back from 4 months off in last month's Britannia Stakes at the Royal Meeting. Needs to leave that well behind to figure. Won here last summer, but finished last in the Britannia and plenty to prove after that. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
Clive Cox appears to have found the key to HAVANA BLUE, who has won his last two races in cosy style, and although stepping up to a mile for the first time, his running style suggests it shouldn't be an issue. One Nation failed to beat a rival home in the Britannia at Royal Ascot last month, but he could be worth another chance, while the consistent Dutch Decoy, who is a previous C&D winner, looks to have solid place claims.
A number arrive with claims, including progressive HAVANA BLUE. Clive Cox's 3-y-o posted a career-best effort when doubling his tally over 7f here 3 weeks ago and, totally unexposed at 1m, he could well be up to completing the hat-trick. Dutch Decoy is knocking firmly on the door and he's feared, along with Saxon King and Indemnify.
The vote goes to BOPEDRO following his close sixth in the Buckingham Palace, whilst his latest York effort can be forgiven.

1st (12)  (2.5/1 +29%)Novakai |
2.5/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Novakai 2.5/1, Progressive last season and signed off with a terrific effort to finish second in the Fillies' Mile at Newmarket. Fine second behind subsequent Oaks winner Soul Sister in the Musidora on her comeback run but made no impression the Prix de Diane last time. Leading player in this grade nevertheless. Second-place finishes in the Fillies' Mile and Musidora the best form on offer. |
|||
2nd (8)  (6.5/1 +28%)Cloudbreaker |
6.5/1(+28%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Cloudbreaker 6.5/1, Confired herself a useful performer with a creditable fourth of 19 in handicap (22/1) at Royal Ascot (12f, good to firm) 30 days ago. In the frame in listed company at Newbury on her previous outing and she can give a good account with posing a serious threat to the principals. Has run well to finish fourth the last twice; still needs more to trouble a few of these. |
|||
3rd (4)  (6.5/1 +46%)Star Fortress |
6.5/1(+46%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Star Fortress 6.5/1, Placed at this level over C&D on only her third career start last season and proved she retains her ability when sixth of 9 to Al Husn in Hoppings Fillies' Stakes at Newcastle (10.2f, 11/1) 22 days ago. Place claims with a recent run under her belt. May have needed last month's Newcastle return, but others make greater appeal. |
|||
4th (11)  (12/1 +25%)Lmay |
12/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Lmay 12/1, Didn't need to improve to get off the mark at the third attempt in a Newbury maiden last month and showed improve form despite doing plenty wrong (pulling hard/hanging left) when 10 lengths eighth of 17 in Ribblesdale Stakes at Royal Ascot (12f, good to firm, 50/1) 30 days ago. Hood applied. Easy winner of a Newbury novice but only eighth in the Ribblesdale; hood on. |
|||
5th (13)  (50/1 -52%)Perfect Prophet |
50/1(-52%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Perfect Prophet 50/1, Kempton novice winner on second start last year before finishing a good third in Group 2 May Hill Stakes at Doncaster. Hasn't really progressed at 3 yrs, though, and finished behind several of these at Royal Ascot. Has already had a rear view of four of these, in some cases more than once. |
|||
6th (14)  (4/1 +0%)Truthful |
4/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Truthful 4/1, Has looked a smart prospect when winning minor events at Salisbury and Haydock, pulling clear of another previous winner on her latter outing. Looks ready for this higher grade and she's respected. Unbeaten in two novices; more needed but she remains open to any amount of improvement. |
|||
7th (3)  (6.5/1 +35%)Sound Angela |
6.5/1(+35%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Sound Angela 6.5/1, Good efforts in listed company so far this term, proving her suitability for quicker ground when runner-up at Chantilly (11.9f, good to firm) last month. Should give another good account. Has already proved herself at this level as when second at Chantilly last month; player. |
|||
8th (7)  (12/1 +25%)Climate Friendly |
12/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Climate Friendly 12/1, Off the mark dropped back to novice company at Newmarket in May and exceeded expectations when 9½ lengths seventh of 17 in Ribblesdale Stakes at Royal Ascot (12f, good to firm, 80/1) 30 days ago. Will need more to take this, though. Not disgraced in the Ribblesdale last time; still needs more if she is to win this. |
|||
9th (10)  (18/1 +0%)Heavenly Breath |
18/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Heavenly Breath 18/1, Runner-up at Group 3/listed level over 1m in France. Ran as well as could be expected when fifth in the Hoppings Fillies' Stakes at Newcastle (10.2f, 80/1) 22 days ago and she holds frame claims here. Runner-up in Group 3/Listed company in France; should stay but could probably do with rain. |
|||
10th (6)  (22/1 +12%)Wickywickywheels |
22/1(+12%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Wickywickywheels 22/1, Won 5 handicaps at Hamilton and a listed race at Abu Dhabi in 2022 but probably will need to improve on her recent efforts to land a blow here. 0-8 since her latest win and behind Time Lock at Haydock last time. |
|||
11th (2)  (28/1 -12%)Belt Buckle |
28/1(-12%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Belt Buckle 28/1, Made successful start at Wolverhampton early last year and seen only twice seen, never dangerous on her return from a 14-month absence in the Hoppings Fillies' Stakes at Newcastle (10.2f) 22 days ago. Others preferred. Lightly raced 4yo; one of three for top stable, but others look more solid. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
NOVAKAI was a good second in the Musidora at York behind Oaks winner Soul Sister on her penultimate effort and that form entitles her to be the one to beat in this field. Karl Burke's charge struggled to land a blow in the Group 1 Prix de Diane at Chantilly last time, but she can stamp her authority back in these calmer waters. Time Lock should also be thereabouts after a creditable run in the Lancashire Oaks at Haydock last time, while Sound Angela completes the shortlist.
Ground firmer than good would be a minor concern for TIME LOCK but she's essentially a really solid performer in this grade and still appeals as the type who could do even better when circumstances allow. She's taken to get the better of Novakai, who needs to shrug off a below-par effort in France last time, with the unbeaten Truthful and Sound Angela others that can make their presence felt.
The choice is NOVAKAI whose runner-up finishes in the Fillies' Mile and Musidora make good reading at this level.

1.88/1(+32%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) I Still Have Faith 1.88/1, Made a complete mess of the start (forfeited at least 6 lengths) but that wasn't enough to stop him opening his account at Nottingham (10.2f, good to soft) a fortnight ago. Just 2 lb higher for that success so fancied to be bang there again despite his antics at the start. Has improved for the fitting of a hood, getting off the mark at Nottingham a fortnight ago. |
|||
2nd (2)  (6.5/1 -44%)Ala Kaifi |
6.5/1(-44%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Ala Kaifi 6.5/1, Fair form shown on all 3 starts, latest when going down by just a short head at Doncaster (10.2f, good to firm) just over 3 weeks ago. Makes handicap debut and could make his presence felt. Needs to find a bit more now handicapping, but he is the least exposed in the field. |
|||
3rd (8)  (12/1 +64%)Major Major |
12/1(+64%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Major Major 12/1, Has just the one standout effort and finished well held on handicap debut at Newbury (10f, good) when last seen 9 weeks ago. Needs to show more. Returns from two months off having been gelded in the meantime; major improvement required. |
|||
4th (9)  (9/1 +0%)Twoforthegutter |
9/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Twoforthegutter 9/1, Made much more impact than previously in first-time cheekpieces just 4 days on from a disappointing handicap debut when 2 lengths third of 8 to I Still Have Faith at Nottingham (10.2f, good to soft) a fortnight ago. Can be in the shake-up again. Improved when third behind I Still Have Faith at Nottingham last time; each-way claims. |
|||
5th (4)  (5.5/1 +31%)Moush |
5.5/1(+31%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Moush 5.5/1, Comes here in good nick, making the frame in each of his last 3 starts. More needed if he's to open his account. In the frame in seven of his nine starts; further probably suits him better. |
|||
6th (3)  (6/1 -71%)Kodiman |
6/1(-71%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Kodiman 6/1, Made an encouraging start on the turf when third at Lingfield (10f, good to firm) 4 weeks ago, especially given he wasn't seen to best effect having been shuffled back after 4f. Hood goes back on and it's unlikely we've seen the best of him yet. Fair effort last time, but still to build on the promise of his debut. |
|||
7th (6)  (22/1 -38%)Another Dimension |
22/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Another Dimension 22/1, Has failed to kick on this year, finishing a well-beaten fourth of 5 in maiden at Brighton (8f, good) 25 days ago. Given a chance by the assessor, but it remains easy enough to look elsewhere. Needs to settle better back up in trip and still has stamina to prove. |
|||
8th (7)  (80/1 -100%)Clenched |
80/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Clenched 80/1, Completely went the wrong way after his debut last year and makes return for a new yard after 10 months off. This should reveal where he's at. Up in trip and may well need this stable debut after 11 months off. |
|||
9th (10)  (10/1 +50%)Twilight Guest |
10/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Twilight Guest 10/1, Ran creditably having first try at this trip when runner-up at Brighton just under 6 weeks ago. Will likely need some respite from the handicapper before shedding his maiden tag. 0-10, but placed in three of his last four starts; return to a galloping track may suit. |
|||
10th (1)  (14/1 +13%)Bohemian Breeze |
14/1(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Bohemian Breeze 14/1, Beaten a long way in 3 handicaps this year but his latest effort in first-time headgear when fourth at Hamilton (8.3f, good) represented a step back in the right direction. Back up in distance but remains tough to support. In the frame in three starts as a 2yo, but not built on it since returning. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
ALA KAIFI very nearly shed his maiden tag when beaten a short-head over 1m2f at Doncaster last time and this looks like a nice opportunity to go one better. Ismail Mohammed's runner is making his handicap debut and an opening mark of 70 doesn't appear out of his grasp. Last-time-out winner I Still Have Faith should pose the biggest danger after scoring over 1m2f at Nottingham, while Kodiman shouldn't be ignored.
This can go the way of I STILL HAVE FAITH, who got off the mark in remarkable fashion at Nottingham a fortnight ago (blew the start and forfeited at least 6 lengths). Nudged up a just a couple of pounds, he's fancied to double his tally at the expense of Kodiman, who wasn't seen to best effect at Lingfield last month and should have more to offer. Ala Kaifi and Moush can do battle for third spot.
The vote goes to I STILL HAVE FAITH who has responded well to the fitting of a hood including when winning at Nottingham last time.

1st (3)  (1.88/1 +53%)Star Of Orion |
1.88/1(+53%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Star Of Orion 1.88/1, Well handicapped on his peak efforts form and he's been in reasonable form lately. Likely to be on the premises. 3lb lower than when winning this race two years ago and running well since returning. |
|||
2nd (7)  (25/1 +24%)Soar Above |
25/1(+24%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Soar Above 25/1, Course winner who arrives in good form from AW, third of 10 in handicap at Kempton (7f) in May. However, more on his plate in this stronger company back on turf. Won over 6f here, but all others wins on AW; question as to whether conditions will suit. |
|||
3rd (6)  (6/1 +25%)Mitrosonfire |
6/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Mitrosonfire 6/1, C&D winner last season and step back in the right direction when fourth here 23 days ago. Claims if he can build on that. C&D winner just 1lb higher than when last successful, but needs another step forward. |
|||
4th (10)  (7/1 +50%)Rich |
7/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Rich 7/1, Hasn't really progressed since last year's debut win and would be a surprise winner. Hasn't built on encouraging reappearance and well behind Candle Of Hope in the Sandringham. |
|||
5th (9)  (12/1 +40%)Siam Fox |
12/1(+40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Siam Fox 12/1, After 4 months off, gained his second success for his current yard at Yarmouth (1m) in May. However, not in the same form both starts since, eighth of 11 at York last month. Needs to get back on track having a rare try at this shorter distance. Twice held since his successful reappearance and looks up against it in this company. |
|||
6th (5)  (1.88/1 +32%)Final Watch |
1.88/1(+32%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Final Watch 1.88/1, C&D winner in September and ran well on his return when making the frame on the Rowley course in April. Had excuses next time and soon back in top form, adding to his tally at over C&D 8 days ago. Obvious claims Record over C&D reads 1221; may not want the ground to dry out too much. |
|||
7th (2)  (18/1 +45%)Meishar |
18/1(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Meishar 18/1, Good 4 lengths ninth of 15 to Al Dasim in Nad Al Sheba Turf Sprint at Meydan (6f, good, 28/1), not clear run. Off 140 days since and probably needs to find his best form if he's to make a successful return. 5-20 on the AW, but 0-11 on turf and he may need this after 140 days off. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Final Watch was a good winner over C&D last Friday and another bold bid can be expected, but he may be susceptible to some better treated rivals, such as STAR OF ORION. Ralph Beckett's charge wasn't disgraced in the Bunbury Cup at this venue last week and dropped 1lb in the ratings, he could be on a dangerous mark. First Folio completes the shortlist back in these calmer waters.
CANDLE OF HOPE fared best of those ridden prominently in the Sandringham at Royal Ascot and, up against much more exposed types, she's worth a chance to get back to winning ways. A bold showing is likely from recent C&D winner Final Watch and Star of Orion should be on the premises.
The vote goes to CANDLE OF HOPE (nap) who suggested the return to 7f would suit when fifth in the 1m Sandringham last month.

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.
