150/1(-500%)
(8) Take The A Train 150/1, Foaled April 28. Showcasing colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including useful 1¼m-1½m winner First Light and 1¼m winner Sir Lowry's Pass. Bred to be useful and in need of a market check on debut. Showcasing half-brother to winners including First Light (1m2f/1m4f; RPR 97); late foal.

13:35 Newmarket Maiden (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Seacruiser was sent off favourite on his debut when finishing fifth at Goodwood earlier in the month and that experience is unlikely to be lost on Ralph Beckett's colt. That being said, he faces some very interesting newcomers on paper with NAVAL COMMAND appealing most. A half-brother to St Leger winner Eldar Eldarov, who also made a winning start to his career, it seems noteworthy that he already boasts a Group 1 entry in the Futurity. Devil's Advocate and Kingmaker are others likely to go well.
A field mostly made up of newcomers and the betting will likely prove a good guide. NAVAL COMMAND ticks plenty of boxes on paper and is seemingly the choice of Buick, so earns the vote before market clues. Present Times and Devil's Advocate are two other blue bloods to keep a close eye on, while Seacruiser showed promise on his Goodwood debut and can put that experience to good use.
Holding the Group 1 entry in a month's time and looking the stable first string today, NAVAL COMMAND appears the most likely winner.
(2) Olympus Point 6/4, Posted fair form in all 3 starts thus far, latest when second of 10 in novice at Thirsk (7f, good) 41 days ago, running on. Looks fairly treated on switch to nurseries and holds solid claims. Shaped last time as if he would stay 1m; this does not look a bad mark for handicap debut.
1
2nd (1) (13/8 +41%) Celeborn
1.625
13/8(+41%)
(1) Celeborn 13/8, Made a winning start at Leicester in June and backed that up when third of 12 in novice at Salisbury (8f, good to soft, 7/1) 13 days ago, not ideally placed. May well do better now sent handicapping. Won the first of his two starts; never nearer latest; brings potential to nurseries at 1m+.
4
3rd (4) (7/1 -56%) Gap Year
7
7/1(-56%)
(4) Gap Year 7/1, Made the frame in all 4 starts to date, latest when creditable fourth of 11 in novice at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm, 6/1) 24 days ago. Switch to handicaps looks a good move and he warrants respect. Up with best form last time; nursery debut, with lack of improvement since debut a concern.
7
4th (7) (28/1 -12%) Charming Fellow
28
28/1(-12%)
(7) Charming Fellow 28/1, No impact in a trio of maidens this summer, on the retreat when hampered before finishing last of 10 at Yarmouth (7f) last month. Plenty of improvement required on nursery bow. Well beaten at big odds in all three 7f maidens; needs much better on this handicap debut.
3
5th (3) (9/1 -157%) Louie The Legend
9
9/1(-157%)
(3) Louie The Legend 9/1, Much improved when landing 16-runner maiden at Chepstow (7.1f, good) 31 days ago, keeping on well. Should appreciate this longer trip and merits consideration on handicap debut. Marked progress in three 7f maidens, winning at Chepstow; further improvement looks likely.
5
6th (5) (16/1 -14%) Flying Fortress
16
16/1(-14%)
(5) Flying Fortress 16/1, Steadily progressive until finishing well-beaten second of 6 in maiden (9/1) at Yarmouth (9.1f, good to firm) 9 days ago. However, he has assistance of useful claimer on handicap debut and can't be ruled out.. Similar form last three starts, 1m1f maiden latest; needs markedly better on nursery debut.
6
7th (6) (16/1 +0%) Jack Andrea
16
16/1(+0%)
(6) Jack Andrea 16/1, Posted best effort yet when runner-up on nursery debut at Salisbury (8f) last month but wasn't in same form on softer ground at Sandown latest and forecast rain is a concern. 2nd in Salisbury nursery (1m, good to firm) on penultimate start; cheekpieces are enlisted.
14:10 Newmarket Handicap (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
CELEBORN looked a useful prospect when scoring on his first start at Leicester before getting withdrawn ahead of his intended second career outing at Doncaster due to being upset in the stalls. Gelded after that, he shaped well on his only outing since when third at Salisbury and an opening mark of 80 may well underestimate his true ability. Olympus Point has run with credit on all three starts to date and is expected to be in the mix, while Chepstow maiden winner Louie The Legend completes the shortlist.
CELEBORN acquitted himself well on slow ground at Salisbury earlier this month and remains with potential. He gets the nod here. Olympus Point and Louie The Legend are feared most.
The top three may bring the most potential, in which case it would be best to concentrate on them, and CELEBORN gets the vote.
(4) Sophia's Starlight 13/2, Good effort when second in listed race at Haydock (6f) in May but hasn't repeated that effort in 3 subsequent outings, though the step back up in trip was probably against her at Chelmsford (7f) last time. Needs to get back on track. Good weights chance with Funny Story on C&D Listed form last October; mixed in 2024.
5
2nd (5) (9/2 +10%) Executive Decision
4.5
9/2(+10%)
(5) Executive Decision 9/2, Useful handicapper, successful at Goodwood and Chepstow (both 6f) last summer, and has shown promise in a light 2024 campaign, not ideally placed when fourth of 9 at Ascot in July. Edging back down in the weights and she's a major player. Won twice at 6f on good to soft as 3yo; not yet back to best in 2024 but well treated now.
7
3rd (7) (2/1 +27%) Dance And Romance
2
2/1(+27%)
(7) Dance And Romance 2/1, Unraced at 2 yrs but made it 2 wins from her first 3 starts when successful in a Nottingham handicap (6.1f) in July. Good third in handicap at Glorious Goodwood next time, so no surprise to see bounce back from a lesser effort at York last month. Up-and-coming handicapper before a short-priced disappointment at York last time.
1
4th (1) (15/8 +66%) Funny Story
1.875
15/8(+66%)
(1) Funny Story 15/8, Listed winner over C&D last October and runner-up at the same level on first 2 starts this season. Not quite in the same form since, 5 lengths fourth of 7 to Quinault in listed race at this venue (6f) in August, but she's respected back in a handicap. Won C&D Listed last October; below best latest but retains all ability; respected.
3
5th (3) (7/1 -133%) Pinafore
7
7/1(-133%)
(3) Pinafore 7/1, Useful filly who won a trio of 6f handicaps in 2023. Back to her best when runner-up in Musselburgh listed contest in June but below form since, racing freely in first-time blinkers in handicap at York (7f) last month. Visor now the choice of headgear. Big improver over 6f in 2023 but mostly below best this year, including on last 2 starts.
14:45 Newmarket Handicap (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
FUNNY STORY has been mostly consistent this season barring a rare blip at York in July. On the evidence of form shown in Listed company at Chester and here on the July Course last month behind Quinault, the four-year-old could take full advantage dropping back into handicap company. Dance And Romance is capable of better making just her sixth career start and she is likely to go well along with Pinafore, who is tried in a visor for the first time.
EXECUTIVE DECISION has shaped well when making the frame on her last 2 starts, having to make her ground away from the principals at Ascot on her latest outing, so she could be ready to strike from 3 lb below her last winning mark. Funny Story isn't taken lightly as she makes her first handicap start of the season, with Dance And Romance also considered.
The forecast rain will be no hindrance to FUNNY STORY and she can defy top weight at the expense of Sophia's Starlight.
(7) The Waco Kid 13/2, Won novice at Newbury in July and has taken his form up a level since, 1¼ lengths third of 7 to Benevento in listed race at Doncaster (7f, good) 13 days ago. Place claims once more. Has largely progressive RPRs; ties in closely with Symbol Of Honour on Doncaster running.
3
2nd (3) (9/2 +36%) Diego Ventura
4.5
9/2(+36%)
(3) Diego Ventura 9/2, Made a winning debut for Gavin Cromwell at Naas in July and folloowed up for his new yard in 10-runner novice (6/5) at Ascot (6f, good to soft) 20 days ago. This requires much more however. Brings a 2-2 profile, having won at Naas (for Gavin Cromwell) and Ascot; has potential.
5
3rd (5) (5/4 -14%) Monumental
1.25
5/4(-14%)
(5) Monumental 5/4, Most progressive Kingman colt who landed 7f Gowran maiden before an excellent ½-length second of 5 to Bay City Roller in Champagne Stakes at Doncaster (7f, good) 12 days ago. Holds leading form claims. Close second in only a substandard Champagne Stakes but still brings the best rating.
6
4th (6) (2/1 +40%) Symbol Of Honour
2
2/1(+40%)
(6) Symbol Of Honour 2/1, Expensive purchase who bagged a Lingfield maiden in May. Has advanced his form since, gelded before coming in runner-up in listed race at Doncaster (7f, good) 13 days ago. Much respected for yard with a good record in this event. Close second in Doncaster Listed race on return from layoff; continues to show improvement.
1
5th (1) (33/1 -65%) Assertively
33
33/1(-65%)
(1) Assertively 33/1, Winless since his debut in a Ripon novice but he posted a fairly useful effort when fourth of 7 to Santagada in Zukunfts-Rennen at Baden-Baden (7f, good to soft) 29 days ago. No forlorn hope. Beaten favourite in German Group 3 last time and this is a stiffer task for the grade.
2
6th (2) (200/1 -203%) Balzarini
200
200/1(-203%)
(2) Balzarini 200/1, Landed 5f maiden at Windsor in July and seemed to excel himself when 3½ lengths sixth of 7 to Santagada in Zukunfts-Rennen at Baden-Baden (7f, good to soft) 29 days ago. This is no easy ask though. Finished behind Assertively in Germany; faces a difficult task in this stronger race.
15:20 Newmarket Group 3 (Class 1) 7f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
Having overcome a slow start when maintaining his unbeaten record over 6f at Ascot earlier this month, Diego Ventura looks likely to improve for going up to 7f. The Mehmas colt shouldn't be underestimated, but MONUMENTAL is likely to prove difficult to beat. The Aidan O'Brien-trained colt arrives on the back of a close-up second in the Champagne Stakes at Doncaster and a similar performance may prove sufficient. Symbol Of Honour also has the form to feature.
MONUMENTAL has improved a chunk with each of his four runs to date so rates a confident choice to go one better than his recent fine second in Doncaster's Champagne Stakes. Charlie Appleby's consistent Symbol of Honour appeals as the one to chase home Aidan O'Brien's son of Kingman ahead of The Waco Kid and Huscal.
Top rated MONUMENTAL gets the vote but Symbol Of Honour and The Waco Kid are certainly feared with further progress plausible.
(2) Al Nayyir 11/8, Developed into a smart stayer trained in France, his best effort coming when 2 lengths second of 15 in Dubai Gold Cup in March. Excellent start for new yard when second in the Lonsdale Cup last month, closing all the way to the line and that is the best form on offer. Strong-finishing, short-head second in York Group 2 (2m, good) on stable debut last time.
1
(1) (5/2 +44%) Harbour Wind
2.5
5/2(+44%)
(1) Harbour Wind 5/2, Low-mileage 4-y-o who picked up where he left off when landing 8-runner listed race at Limerick in June. Sound 2-lengths second of 10 to Sevenna's Knight in Prix Gladiateur at Longchamp (15.4f, good to soft) 18 days ago and he should be in the mix despite having to concede weight all round. Should give his running but others bring serious form and don't have to carry his penalty.
7
(7) (4/1 +0%) Fighter
4
4/1(+0%)
(7) Fighter 4/1, Took a little while to find his feet but he's improving quickly in blinkers now. landing a big-field maiden at the Curragh last month before taking apart a handicap from the front at Leopardstown. This trip/grade asks a new question but he's not to be underestimated. Transformed in blinkers on last two of his five races, making all; needs plenty of respect.
4
(4) (6/1 +0%) Samui
6
6/1(+0%)
(4) Samui 6/1, Fairly useful hurdles winner who has thrived since switched to the Flat, showing smart form when a 17-length winner of 2m handicap at Killarney before backing that up with placed efforts at York (handicap) and Chester (listed), latterly in first-time cheekpieces. Return to 2m will suit. Needs better but this return to 2m looks a big plus and he may still be open to progress.
3
(3) (25/1 +38%) Beamish
25
25/1(+38%)
(3) Beamish 25/1, Quickly attained a useful level when trained by P.Twomey. Missed all of 2023 and recorded several sound efforts in handicaps for this yard but it's not easy to make a case for him on these terms. Head 2nd at the Shergar Cup at Ascot (2m) on penultimate start; this demands much better.
15:55 Newmarket Listed (Class 1) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
Boasting a rating of 114, AL NAYYIR boasts leading claims on the back of his narrow second in the Group 2 Lonsdale Cup at York last month. Tom Clover's charge makes plenty of appeal dropping into Listed company and he can get the better of Night Sparkle. The daughter of Postponed finished four lengths behind the selection on the Knavesmire and a subsequent runner-up effort in the Group 2 Park Hill at Doncaster shows that she is still in good heart. Harbour Wind should make his presence felt as well.
AL NAYYIR was just about better than ever when making Vauban pull out all of the stops in the Group 2 Lonsdale Cup on last month's stable debut and a reproduction of that form will see him very hard to beat in listed company. Harbour Wind must concede weight all round but he's a likable type with an excellent strike rate, while Fighter is the unknown quantity in the race.
The level of achievement shown by AL NAYYIR (nap) in the Lonsdale at York last month is a shining recommendation at this lower level.
(4) Candyman Stan 11/4, Completed a simple task at odds of 1/6 in 5-runner maiden at Lingfield (12f, AW) just over a fortnight ago, well in command when hanging left straight. Now sent handicapping and warrants considerable respect for his top stable. 9l win when 1-6 in AW maiden at Lingfield (1m4f) 16 days ago; unexposed handicap debutant.
3
(3) (10/3 +5%) Fighter Command
3.333333
10/3(+5%)
(3) Fighter Command 10/3, Placed on first 2 starts and made it third time lucky in 1¼m Windsor maiden in April. Finished well held in London Gold Cup next time but back on track in a smaller field when second of 6 in handicap on the July course (12f, good to firm) just under 8 weeks ago. Gelded and can do better again. Improved when front-running 2nd of six at Newmarket (1m4f, good to firm) last time; gelded.
2
(2) (7/2 +42%) Wonder Kid
3.5
7/2(+42%)
(2) Wonder Kid 7/2, Improving sort who won Newbury and July course handicaps over this trip first 2 starts this season and found only another progressive 3-y-o too good back at the latter venue in July. Unsuited by the way the race developed at Ascot later that month and returns from a 2-month break. Nearly completed a hat-trick over 1m4f in first three handicaps; fair 6th on latest start.
1
(1) (11/2 -83%) Baltic
5.5
11/2(-83%)
(1) Baltic 11/2, Improving Frankel colt who is unbeaten in handicaps, completing a five-timer in 7-runner event at Newcastle (12.4f) a couple of months ago by neck from Tryfan, battling well and leaving the impression that he had something left. Up another 4 lb and he's open to further progress. 5-5 over about 1m4f since handicapping in cheekpieces; hard to rule out further progress.
5
(5) (9/1 -38%) Tryfan
9
9/1(-38%)
(5) Tryfan 9/1, Made a winning start to his handicap career on AW at Newcastle (12.5f) in June. Also a good second there in July but wasn't up to better company when eleventh of 16 at York (13.8f, good to firm) last month. Returns to a much more realistic level back down in trip. Ran Baltic to a neck at Newcastle (1m4f, AW) on penultimate outing; more to prove on turf.
6
(6) (14/1 -56%) Don Simon
14
14/1(-56%)
(6) Don Simon 14/1, Promise when close fifth at Chelmsford on debut last winter but has failed to build on that twice at Southwell this summer, finishing a well-beaten fourth of 14 in novice (12.1f) earlier this month. Makes handicap/turf debut and worth keeping an eye on in the betting. Late foal who should be open to progress off a reasonable mark for handicap/turf debut.
8
(8) (16/1 -78%) Raja Raja
16
16/1(-78%)
(8) Raja Raja 16/1, Limited encouragement on debut but showed more next 2 starts. Failed to improve for the switch to a handicap after 12 weeks off when ninth of 13 at Doncaster (11.9f, good) a fortnight ago but this represents a drop in grade, and he should strip fitter for the outing. Needs better but these are early days for him and he's worth a market check.
7
(7) (18/1 -29%) Macari
18
18/1(-29%)
(7) Macari 18/1, Yet to get his head in front on the level but confirmed himself a horse on the up when third of 12 in handicap at Windsor (10f, good) 10 days ago. Could have more to offer over this trip so he's one to consider from an unchanged mark. Placed in Class 5 over 1m2f on the Flat in his two races this month; 1m4f looks plausible.
16:30 Newmarket Handicap (Class 4) 12f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
BALTIC appears to go from strength to strength, making it five wins in a row at Newcastle latest, and he can defy a further 4lb rise in the ratings to complete the six-timer. Easy Lingfield maiden scorer Candyman Stan starts handicap life off a workable mark of 80 and he must enter calculations, while Wonder Kid and Fighter Command are others to watch out for.
BALTIC stretched his unbeaten record in handicaps to 5 at Newcastle a couple of months ago and, with his level of ability yet to be ascertained, Harry Charlton's progressive colt is fancied to go in again at the expense of Candyman Stan, who completed a simple task in a Lingfield maiden earlier this month and can kick on now handicapping for his top yard. Fighter Command can edge out Macari for minor honours.
Baltic has been racking up the wins but another chance is given to WONDER KID who was going great guns prior to his latest start.
(12) Terries Royale 6/5, Off the mark in amateur riders' handicap at Ascot (1m) and comfortably went like best horse at the weights when second in Leger Legends race at Doncaster (1m) 11 days ago, clear when hanging badly left and headed close home. Well worth considering from this mark. Off the mark at Ascot before he seemingly threw away a Doncaster 1m race by veering left.
5
(5) (2/1 +56%) Amsterdam
2
2/1(+56%)
(5) Amsterdam 2/1, Steadily progressive son of Dutch Art who ran well on his first crack at this trip when second of 6 in handicap at York (7.9f, soft) 18 days ago, rallying well once headed. Still early days with him and he's of interest. Five-race maiden with three seconds, including from the front in 7f/1m handicaps.
9
(9) (7/1 -27%) Where's Freddy
7
7/1(-27%)
(9) Where's Freddy 7/1, Cheekpieces on when resuming winning ways on the July course here and quickly back from a lesser effort when second of 11 in handicap at this course (7f, good, 18/1) 5 days ago, running on. Another each-way player from unchanged mark back at 1m. Has done well at Newmarket over 7f; it wasn't the trip which beat him in two 1m placings.
11
(11) (11/1 0%) Pressure's On
11
11/1(0%)
(11) Pressure's On 11/1, Good second on reappearance here (7f) in April prior to catching the eye in a big-field handicap back here the following month. Not built on those exploits in 2 starts following a break but likely remains with a bigger effort in his locker and not one to write off. Not so good lately and he did not convince for stamina when trying 1m on latest start.
4
(4) (12/1 -9%) Mr Baloo
12
12/1(-9%)
(4) Mr Baloo 12/1, Dual winner at Kempton prior to a good fifth at Goodwood (1m) in May. Not disgraced when fourth of 11 in handicap at Chester (7f, heavy) 13 days ago but suspicion the handicapper has him about right. Returns to 1m now. Two 3yo wins on Kempton AW; something to find today judged on turf efforts in particular.
14
(14) (16/1 -100%) Lake Teo
16
16/1(-100%)
(14) Lake Teo 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden who matched pick of form in maidens (well backed) when fifth of 7 in handicap at Haydock (10.5f) 7 weeks ago, outpaced gradually. Remains early days with her but drop back in trip may not suit ideally. Needs to find a fair bit extra for today's drop back in trip if she's to get off the mark.
13
(13) (20/1 -67%) Desperate Dan
20
20/1(-67%)
(13) Desperate Dan 20/1, Ran to a fair level on 2 of his 3 starts in maidens and gelded, shaped bit better than bare result when eighth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f) 23 days ago, keeping on when hampered last ½f. Remains early days now dropped back down in trip. Hampered on handicap debut last time; improvement is still needed to win this, though.
3
(3) (25/1 +0%) Bajan Bandit
25
25/1(+0%)
(3) Bajan Bandit 25/1, Thrived for this yard last season, winning handicaps at Haydock/York before filling the frame all 3 starts thereafter. Yet to get near that level in handful of starts this term but probably needed first start for 4 months at Doncaster 12 days ago. Handicapper has afforded him a chance. Badly lost his form this spring and he was again among the backmarkers 12 days ago.
2
(2) (28/1 -40%) Stockpyle
28
28/1(-40%)
(2) Stockpyle 28/1, Won back-to-back handicaps in June and largely run with credit whilst looking in the grip of the assessor since. Too lit up in blinkers (discarded here) when well held at Haydock (8.2f) latest but others make greater appeal overall. Quick double when front-running in June but not so good since, particularly latest start.
17:05 Newmarket Handicap (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Where's Freddy was narrowly denied over 7f here last Saturday and he should go well stepping back up in distance, while Terries Royale also makes plenty of appeal following solid win and placed efforts at Ascot and Doncaster respectively. However, AMSTERDAM is less exposed than the aforementioned pair and produced his best effort yet when stepped back up to 1m at York last time. Down in class off just 1lb higher, he rates the one to beat.
CLASSIC ENCOUNTER shaped very well having had 9 months off when fifth in a Newcastle novice 16 days ago having been caught further back than ideal. Now handicapping from what could well prove a lenient mark, he earns the vote, ahead of Mick Appleby's Terries Royale who patently shaped best when runner-up at Doncaster 11 days ago. Amsterdam and Pressure's On are another pair to consider in an interesting finale.
A rising force in 1m handicaps lately, TERRIES ROYALE gets the vote ahead of Classic Encounter and Where's Freddy.
