1st (2)  (6/4 +55%)Sirona |
6/4(+55%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Sirona 6/4, Useful 7f scorer for Charlie Johnston in 2023 and compiling a solid record for her new yard, edged out only late on when second of 8 in listed company at Longchamp (1m) 26 days ago. Holds good claims on these terms and her stable continue in good order. Largely encouraging form this season for new stable; leading contender on the figures. |
|||
2nd (5)  (5/2 +58%)Fair Point |
5/2(+58%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Fair Point 5/2, Progressive filly who was seen to good effect but well on top at the line in any case when winning 6-runner handicap at Ascot (8f, good to soft, 7/4) 20 days ago. Remains one to be positive about now her sights are set higher. Made all in fillies' handicap at Ascot last time; steadily improving filly; possibilities. |
|||
3rd (3)  (4/1 -20%)Spiritual |
4/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Spiritual 4/1, Made breakthrough at listed level under a fine ride at Sandown (1m) and dispelled a lesser run in France when fourth from the front in Group 3 Atalanta Stakes (1m) 4 weeks ago. Likely she can figure and further easing of the ground would play to her strengths. Made all for Listed win at Sandown in July; possibilities granted an uncontested lead. |
|||
4th (7)  (10/1 -100%)Rolica |
10/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Rolica 10/1, landed a 7f maiden here on return and excellent effort fast-tracked to Group 1 when sixth in 1000 Guineas. Not had race run to suit either start since, latterly when fifth in Atalanta Stakes at Sandown (1m) 4 weeks ago. Good gallop to aim at will help here. Showed progress at this course in the spring, notably good sixth in the 1,000 Guineas. |
|||
5th (4)  (8/1 +33%)Arisaig |
8/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Arisaig 8/1, Did well after conceding first run to land 12-runner handicap at Goodwood (1m) in July. Excuses in big field handicaps at York/Leopardstown since and whilst she's a bit to find at this level, it would come as no great surprise to see her thereabouts. Fairly useful handicapper; won at Glorious Goodwood; stiffer task upped in class. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
Punters will need to be in a forgiving mood to side with SPIRITUAL, but it may pay to do so. She was too keen for her own good when fading into fourth close home over a mile at Sandown most recently, but the form of her victory over the same C&D in July has a strong look to it. With that effort in mind, she gets the vote to stamp her authority on this trappy-looking contest from the front. Sirona got back on track with a solid second over a mile at Longchamp recently and looks the pick of the remainder, while the progressive Fair Point also catches the eye.
SIRONA gave best only to a similarly rejuvenated type when runner-up in listed company at Longchamp (1m) 26 days ago and the balance of this season's efforts give her sound claims kept to this level. Spiritual holds sound claims on these terms and she's feared, whilst another 3-y-o, Rolica, likely has a bigger effort in her locker.
The excellent record of 3yos in this race heightens interest in ROLICA, who has good Newmarket form, and the improving Fair Point.

1st (4)  (13/8 +35%)Time Lock |
13/8(+35%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Time Lock 13/8, Smart winner of this race 12 months ago and ran much better than she had in the Coronation Cup when third of 6 to Giavellotto in Princess of Wales's Stakes at Newmarket (12f, good to soft) in July. Tongue strap on for 1st time and sets the standard back down in grade. Won this last year; not so good this term but still two respectable results; tongue-tie on. |
|||
2nd (5)  (10/1 +50%)Comic Book |
10/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Comic Book 10/1, Showed much improved form to get off the mark in a maiden at Bellewstown (12f) in July. Pinched some black type at the first attempt when fourth at Deauville next time and ran to a similar level in a listed event at Longchamp (13.9f) since. Close up in Group 3 at Deauville (1m4f, good) and Listed race at Longchamp (1m6f). |
|||
3rd (7)  (16/5 +20%)Place Of Safety |
16/5(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Place Of Safety 16/5, Confirmed debut when easily landing 11f Kempton novice in July and ran well upped in grade when second of 9 to Divina Grace in listed race at Newmarket (12f, good to firm) 55 days ago. Likely to improve further. 2nd to Divina Grace in Newmarket Listed race; hopes of further progress after just 3 races. |
|||
4th (8)  (25/1 +24%)Sinology |
25/1(+24%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Sinology 25/1, Left debut behind when leading close home in 1¼m Newbury maiden (good to soft) in April. Has faced stiff tasks last 2 outings and this isn't a whole lot easier. Won a maiden at Newbury in April but put firmly in her place in two Group races since. |
|||
5th (3)  (2/1 +69%)Sea Of Roses |
2/1(+69%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Sea Of Roses 2/1, Proved better than ever when winning 4-runner listed race at Windsor (11.4f, soft) 34 days ago, aided by run of race but showing a willing attitude all the same. More needed back up in grade, though. Windsor Listed win (11.4f, soft) latest; bids for Group-race breakthrough at 7th attempt. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
MISTRAL STAR was far from disgraced when finishing fourth in a classy renewal of the Yorkshire Oaks over this trip last month and, with her sights lowered, the daughter of Frankel may be the one to side with. Time Lock gave best to two stronger stayers when finishing third in a Group 2 over 1m4f on the July course here last time and she looks the main danger to the selection, especially if the application of a first-time tongue-tie has the desired effect. The unexposed Place Of Safety is respected most out of the remainder.
The vote goes to TIME LOCK, who sets the standard judged on her impressive win in this race 12 months ago. Mistral Star has a progressive profile and warrants plenty of respect back at a more suitable level, with 3-y-o Place of Safety also of interest with further improvement on the cards.
Time Lock, Place Of Safety and Mistral Star are shortlisted but testing ground could swing it in favour of SEA OF ROSES.

1st (1)  (11/8 +73%)Bubbling |
11/8(+73%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Bubbling 11/8, No Nay Never filly who landed 7f maiden at Galway in July before posting a good ¾-length third of 9 to Chantez in listed race at Leopardstown (7f, good) 13 days ago when not enjoying the clearest of passages. Open to progress. Considered. Ran creditably, amid traffic issues, at Leopardstown last time; enters calculations. |
|||
2nd (6)  (11/1 +67%)Serving With Style |
11/1(+67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Serving With Style 11/1, Landed her first two starts at Carlisle (7f) and Goodwood (1m) and not discredited when 7¾ lengths seventh of 9 to Desert Flower in May Hill Stakes at Doncaster (8f, good) 15 days ago. No forlorn hope. Came up short in the May Hill and has something to prove in another Group 2. |
|||
3rd (3)  (11/2 +35%)Duty First |
11/2(+35%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Duty First 11/2, Improving Showcasing filly who landed the odds in 7f novice at Ayr in August. Excellent 1¾ lengths second of 7 to Anshoda in Prestige Stakes at Goodwood (7f, soft) 34 days ago. One to consider. Brings progressive 7f form; ran well in Goodwood Group 3 most recently; solid chance. |
|||
4th (5)  (7/4 -17%)Formal |
7/4(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Formal 7/4, Dubawi filly has made a highly promising start in easily bagging maiden at Newbury and novice at Leicester this summer, both over 7f. Open to significant improvement and the one to beat despite this step up in grade. Well-bred filly who has recorded two comfortable wins and looks a smart prospect. |
|||
5th (2)  (16/1 -14%)Definitive |
16/1(-14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Definitive 16/1, Dark Angel filly made a winning debut in 6f maiden at Haydock before advancing her form when 2½ lengths fifth in Princess Margaret Stakes at Ascot (6f, good) later in July. Can do better still after a break with hood added. Gives the impression this step up to 7f may prompt a higher level of form; hood on. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
BUBBLING would have finished closer to the eventual winner if granted a clear passage when a never-nearer third in a Leopardstown Listed race recently and, provided the cards fall right for her here, this progressive daughter of No Nay Never looks well capable of plundering Group 2 honours. Formal has notched up two wins from as many career starts this season and she can give the selection most to think about, while this step up in trip may see Definitive in a better light.
Sir Michael Stoute's FORMAL has looked a fine prospect when impressively landng lesser events at Newbury and Leciester so is fancied to take this step up in class in her stride and retain her unbeaten record. Aidan O'Brien's duo Ecstatic and Bubbling have better days ahead of them too and can chase home the selection in that order.
Highly promising FORMAL is taken to give the soon-retiring Sir Michael Stoute a fourth Rockfel win. Duty First is second choice.

1st (2)  (10/3 +33%)Prague |
10/3(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Prague 10/3, Failed to make the track during his time with Aidan O'Brien but has quickly made up into a smart performer for this yard, proving suit by the drop to 1m when ½-length second to Holloway Boy in Haydock Group 3 earlier this month. Should go well. Only made debut in June; looked unlucky not to win a Group 3 at Haydock last time. |
|||
2nd (1)  (2/1 +56%)Poker Face |
2/1(+56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Poker Face 2/1, Ran close to his best when second to Ice Max in Celebration Mile at Goodwood (soft) last month but only a respectable 2 lengths fourth to Diego Valazquez in Leopardstown Group 2 since. Needs to get back to his best. Ground too quick in Ireland last time so ran well; respected with a soft lead possible. |
|||
3rd (6)  (2/1 +60%)Task Force |
2/1(+60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Task Force 2/1, Smart and consistent colt who was tongue tied when posting a very good 1¼ lengths third of 9 to reopposing ownermate Lead Artist in Glorious Goodwood Group 3 (1m, firm) early last month. Met some trouble and shaped as if still in good form when fourth in York Group 3 since. Not had the best of luck in recent Group 3s; unexposed on rain-softened ground; respected. |
|||
4th (3)  (4/1 +20%)Ice Max |
4/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Ice Max 4/1, Started the year with a couple of very impressive performances in handicaps. Came up short at listed/Group 3 level on next 2 outings but back on the up with a bang when proving a length too strong for Poker Face in the Celebration Mile at Goodwood (soft). 3 lb penalty but still much respected. Beat Poker Face in the Celebration Mile and today's stiff finish will suit him ideally. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
Ice Max cosily took care of Poker Face (second) when securing the Celebration Mile at Goodwood last month and considering the manner of that victory, he is expected to confirm the form. However, they both might up against it with LEAD ARTIST, who was only denied by the smart Kinross in the Group 2 Park Stakes at Doncaster earlier in the month and the step back up in distance should suit. The son of Dubawi continues to improve and he can record his third career victory.
LEAD ARTIST will be suited by the return to 1m and can go one better than in similar company at the Doncaster St Leger meeting. Prague shaped well tackling 1m for the first time at Haydock earlier this month and may provide the main threat. Celebration Mile winner Ice Max would also firmly enter the reckoning should the ground turn soft.
In a tight renewal a chance is taken on TASK FORCE who tends to finish his races out strongly and he could improve on softening ground.

1st (10)  (13/8 +54%)Seaplane |
13/8(+54%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Seaplane 13/8, Stepped up on the form of his 6f debut second in May when filling the same position over 7f at Ascot (good to soft) just over 3 months later. Looks capable of better again and likely to be winning soon. Runner-up in both outings, latest at Ascot; looks a winner waiting to happen. |
|||
2nd (1)  (16/5 -16%)Archivist |
16/5(-16%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Archivist 16/5, Held back by inexperience on Lingfield debut and duly improved when second 11 in novice at Leicester (7f, soft) 17 days ago. Can progress again. Nicely bred; posted a solid-looking effort at Leicester this month; big player. |
|||
3rd (5)  (9/4 +68%)Frankini |
9/4(+68%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Frankini 9/4, Promising fourth of 9 in maiden at Ascot (7f, good to soft) on debut 21 days ago, nearest finish. The reopposing Seaplane was around 1½ lengths ahead in second on that occasion but he may get closer to him this time. Ties in with Seaplane on Ascot running; set for an interesting rematch. |
|||
4th (9)  (5/1 +38%)Sea Force |
5/1(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Sea Force 5/1, Sea The Stars colt. Half-brother to useful winner up to 7f Pretty Crystal. Dam winner up to 7f (2-y-o 6f winner). Would enter the reckoning if the betting suggests he's fancied. Sea The Stars colt; yard won this race with a newcomer (SP 33-1) in 2018. |
|||
5th (2)  (40/1 -150%)Azoozi |
40/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Azoozi 40/1, 50/1, sixth of 12 in maiden at Haydock (7f, good) on debut 22 days ago. Best to look elsewhere. Haydock effort is below the required standard in this race. |
|||
6th (12)  (125/1 -89%)Spirit Of Albion |
125/1(-89%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Spirit Of Albion 125/1, 25,000 gns Invincible Spirit gelding. Half-brother to 6f/7f winner Okami. A watching brief is advised on debut. 25,000gns yearling; some of the other newcomers are more appealing. |
|||
7th (13)  (25/1 +0%)Towerlands |
25/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Towerlands 25/1, 55,000 gns Earthlight colt. Half-brother to useful 2-y-o 7f-1m winner Lady Hayes and 1m-1¼m winner Pugin. Will need to be very useful to make a winning start to his career here. 55,000gns yearling; by Earthlight; yard is only 1-25 with 2yos this term. |
|||
8th (6)  (150/1 -127%)Le Pelerin |
150/1(-127%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Le Pelerin 150/1, 33/1, ninth of 13 in novice at Kempton (1m) on debut 21 days ago. Likely booked for another struggle. Soundly beaten in 1m AW event at Kempton. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Seaplane has shown plenty of ability in both of his starts to date, with his latest effort when runner-up at Ascot possibly the strongest piece of form on offer. However, a chance can be taken on newcomer SECRET THEORY, who is the choice of William Buick from the Godolphin pair in this contest and he is related to plenty of Group winners. The son of Dubawi goes for the in-form Charlie Appleby stable and it would be no surprise to see him make an immediate impact. Archivist completes the shoirtlist.
An interesting race in which the market could prove informative, particularly regarding the Godolphin newcomers. SEAPLANE shaped well when second at Ascot recently and gets the nod with further progress likely. Frankini wasn't too far behind the selection at Ascot and is second choice ahead of Archivist before any betting clues are known.
With further progress on the cards, ARCHIVIST is preferred. Interesting newcomer Secret Theory is second choice.

1st (2)  (10/1 +17%)Burdett Road |
10/1(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Burdett Road 10/1, Won handicap at Royal Ascot last year and developed into a useful hurdler for this yard during the winter. Back on the Flat, raced freely when mid-field in Ebor at York, before unsuited by way the race developed at Chester (12.3f, soft) last time. Not written off. Settling him remains a major issue and marked overall improvement is needed. |
|||
2nd (9)  (10/11 +55%)Military Academy |
10/11(+55%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Military Academy 10/11, From an excellent family and ran to a useful level first time up when winning at Hamilton (11.1f, heavy) in August. Still green but followed up at Salisbury (9.9f, good to soft) 2 weeks ago, quickening clear impressively, so he's not taken lightly upped in grade. Makes a big step up in class but a bold show would not surprise after two novice wins. |
|||
3rd (1)  (9/2 -13%)Aimeric |
9/2(-13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Aimeric 9/2, Won handicap at Lingfield on return before runner-up in listed races next 2 starts. Not seen to best effect the last twice, though shaped encouragingly on first run since leaving Roger Varian when close third of 4 in listed event at Windsor (11.4f, soft) last time. Respected. Minor honours this summer in three Listed events and a Group race; a leading player. |
|||
4th (4)  (5/2 +17%)Epic Poet |
5/2(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Epic Poet 5/2, Smart in France and back on track for current yard this year, building on his previous promise this season when landing the Old Borough Cup at Haydock (14f, good) 20 days ago. Pulled clear with the runner-up last time and he's a major player back up in grade. Cracked it in a good handicap last time and that form makes him a player at this level too. |
|||
5th (8)  (33/1 -106%)Lucentio |
33/1(-106%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Lucentio 33/1, Has thrived since going up in trip with cheekpieces added, completing the hat-trick in 6-runner handicap at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) when last seen in June. Going the right way but faces a much tougher task this time around. 3-3 in this headgear combination in 11.4f handicaps at Windsor; this is a leap up in class. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
Unbeaten three-year-old MILITARY ACADEMY has shaped like a smart prospect in both victories to date and he looks ready to score at Listed level. The son of Fastnet Rock made all in ready fashion over 1m2f at Salisbury earlier in the month and this 1m4f distance should hold no fears. Having landed Haydock's Old Borough Cup over 1m6f, Epic Poet certainly won't be lacking for stamina down in trip and he's feared most, ahead of Aimeric.
Having been shaping up well, EPIC POET proved better than ever when battling well for success at Haydock last time, so he looks well worth his place back in this higher grade. He is taken to get the better of Military Academy, who is respected as he bids to maintain his unbeaten record, while Aimeric can also make his presence felt.
The solid option looks to be AIMERIC (nap), although Military Academy has to be feared and Epic Poet is also in calculations.

1st (11)  (7/2 +75%)First Officer |
7/2(+75%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) First Officer 7/2, Made a winning reappearance at Windsor in April and largely creditable efforts in defeat since, having every chance when fifth of 9 at Chester (10.3f, soft) just under a fortnight ago. Mark does look about right, however. Has form figures of 312 at this track, the success gained a year ago; could go well. |
|||
2nd (12)  (9/4 +74%)Battle Queen |
9/4(+74%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Battle Queen 9/4, Opened her account in a Nottingham maiden in May and shaped well when sixth in Sandringham handicap at Royal Ascot (second home in group) next time. Conceded first run when second at Newbury in July but proved a let-down at York (10.2f, good to firm) 5 weeks ago. Bounce back required. Form dipped last time but consistent otherwise and may well rebound; not dismissed. |
|||
3rd (9)  (2/1 +73%)More Thunder |
2/1(+73%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) More Thunder 2/1, Off the mark at Nottingham in May and good second on his handicap bow at Chester (10.3f, good) when last seen a couple of months ago. That form has received several boosts since and he's a big player off the same mark here with Ryan Moore taking over. Unexposed; form of latest effort is working out very well; interesting off the same mark. |
|||
4th (8)  (11/1 +56%)Sweet Reward |
11/1(+56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Sweet Reward 11/1, It's now 11 runs since his last win in 2023 and only seventh of 10 in handicap at Goodwood (9.9f, soft) just under 5 weeks ago. Now 1 lb below his last winning mark so shouldn't be underestimated. Form dipped last time in a Goodwood race he'd won 12 months earlier; opposed. |
|||
5th (6)  (6/1 +50%)Zozimus |
6/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Zozimus 6/1, Dual 1m winner at Pontefract last month but subsequent rise has left him with little room for manoeuvre, finishing down the field at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) just under 4 weeks ago. Others seemingly better treated. Consistent on turf this year; however, faces a stiffer assignment back up in grade. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Having found only a subsequent winner too strong on his handicap bow at Chester in July, MORE THUNDER could gain compensation today. Sir Michael Stoute's charge races off an unchanged mark and he likely has more to offer after only four starts. Shamran opened his account in a Salisbury novice contest in late August and a handicap mark of 82 looks workable. The son of Kingman is unlikely to be far away, while Siempre Arturo may have been freshened up by a 64-day break.
Chances can be given to plenty, but the suggestion is MAGNUM OPUS, who shaped as if still in good form when fifth at Doncaster just under a fortnight ago and Simon & Ed Crisford's 3-y-o likely has a bigger effort in his locker. More Thunder progressed another chunk when runner-up at Chester a couple of months ago, so he can provide most resistance to the selection, with Westridge and Gloucestershire another couple worth considering, too.
Judged on his latest effort, MORE THUNDER holds particularly strong claims. Westridge, a similar type, is feared most.
