Dam, 9.2f-12.5f winner (2-time Prix de Pomone winner), half-sister to smart 7f/1m winner Pablo 160,000gns yearling; one of three for top yard and market strength would be worth noting. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (7/2 -8%) Individualism |
7/2(-8%) | (8) Individualism 7/2, Placed all 3 starts, best effort when second of 11 in novice at Ayr (7.2f, good to soft, 5/2) 43 days ago. Can make presence felt again. Runner-up on two of his three starts and latest form is working out very well; key player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (7) (250/1 -150%) Inappropriate |
250/1(-150%) | (7) Inappropriate 250/1, Twice-raced maiden. 125/1, ninth of 12 in novice at Yarmouth (7f, soft) 18 days ago. Well beaten this autumn on his first two starts and considerable improvement is required. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (13) (300/1 -100%) Warmonger |
300/1(-100%) | (13) Warmonger 300/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eleventh of 12 in novice (300/1) at this course (8f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Well beaten at massive odds on all three starts; one for handicaps over further next year. |

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (6) (20/1 -43%) Global Asset |
20/1(-43%) | (6) Global Asset 20/1, Foaled January 21. Night of Thunder colt. Dam, 7f winner, half-sister to useful 11.4f/1½m winner Grand Bazaar out of useful 6f (including at 2 yrs) winner Damaniyat Girl. Dam from good family; top stable runs three newcomers and the betting could be informative. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (12) (33/1 +0%) St Mungos Park |
33/1(+0%) | (12) St Mungos Park 33/1, Foaled February 20. 1,000 gns yearling, Siyouni colt. Half-brother to useful 2-y-o 7f winner One Nation. Dam, 10.5f winner, half-sister to very smart winner up to 9f (Breeders' Cup Filly And Mare Turf) Wuheida out of very smart winner up to 1½m (Fillies' Mile at 2 yrs) Hibaayeb. Godolphin cast-off who makes his debut; 1,000gns yearling; others make greater appeal. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Zoum Zoum made a winning debut when beating the favourite on the day by just over a length at Kempton and he should take a step forwards from that to have a say here. However, he carries a 6lb penalty and could find it difficult to give that weight away to the beautifully-bred KIKKULI, The son of Kingman has a striking pedigree and should have no issues with this trip, so it would be no surprise to see him go in at the first time of asking. Any market support for 160,000gns purchase Economics should also be considered.
ZOUM ZOUM looked a useful prospect when making a winning debut in a decent time at Kempton and can defy a penalty. Individualism can put his experience to good use and be thereabouts again, while Kikkuli is a very interesting newcomer being a half-brother to Frankel.
Kempton winner ZOUM ZOUM is taken to defy a 6lb penalty, with the Roger Varian-trained newcomer So Deuce feared most.

1st (12) (5/1 +50%) The Reverend |
5/1(+50%) | (12) The Reverend 5/1, Foaled February 3. 150,000 gns yearling, Lope De Vega colt. Brother to smart 1m-10.5f winner Angel Power, closely related to 10.5f winner Burkina Faso and half-brother to 2-y-o 7f winner Bellport. Dam maiden. 150,000gns yearling who is a half-brother to Italian Group 2 winner Angel Power; possible. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (11) (3/1 +14%) Strong Opinion |
3/1(+14%) | (11) Strong Opinion 3/1, 1,000,000 gns yearling, Dubawi colt who shaped as if in need of the experience when fourth of 12 in a C&D novice 9 days ago. Open to improvement. Well beaten over C&D on debut but this 1,000,000gns yearling may be a lot sharper today. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (100/1 -100%) Craig |
100/1(-100%) | (3) Craig 100/1, Foaled March 28. 10,000 gns yearling, Territories gelding. Half-brother to winner abroad by Ardad. Dam unraced half-sister to smart 7f winner Iptisam out of useful 1¼m winner Grain of Truth. Others have more appealing pedigrees. 10,000gns yearling; third foal; half-brother to Italian 1m winner; others appeal more. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (13/2 +0%) Valentine Catcher |
13/2(+0%) | (1) Valentine Catcher 13/2, Bated Breath colt overcoming greenness and testing conditions to make a winning start in 11-runner minor event at Redcar (6f, heavy, 14/1) on debut 14 days ago. Has an experience edge over most and is open to improvement, but defying a penalty in this field won't be easy. 14-1 win on recent debut; trainer's 2yos rarely win first time which bodes well for career. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (13/2 +35%) Great Chieftain |
13/2(+35%) | (5) Great Chieftain 13/2, Foaled February 11. €170,000 yearling, Gleneagles colt. Closely related to useful winner up to 1m Elounda Queen. Dam French 9f winner. 170,000euros yearling; closely related to French 1m Group 3 winner; on the shortlist. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (20/1 -43%) Aulis |
20/1(-43%) | (2) Aulis 20/1, Foaled February 23. Ulysses colt. Closely related to 1¼m/10.5f winner Oriole, and half-brother to useful winner up to 8.5f Bullace and 1½m winner Roost. Dam 7f winner (including at 2 yrs). One of 2 in the race for Ralph Beckett. From a family connections have done well with & no surprise if he makes an impact on debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (9/4 +59%) Hutchence |
9/4(+59%) | (6) Hutchence 9/4, Foaled May 9. 310,000 gns yearling, Frankel colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including smart winner up to 1¼m Best of Days and 2-y-o 1m winner Lenormand. Dam 1m-11f winner. Bred to be smart and must be taken seriously on debut. 310,000gns yearling; trainer having fine season with 2yos; firmly in calculations on debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (40/1 +60%) Kapparis Kid |
40/1(+60%) | (8) Kapparis Kid 40/1, Has shown more temperament than ability in 2 starts so far. First run for yard after leaving Amy Murphy. Well beaten on debut at Leicester then ran out in Germany; subsequently sold for 7,000gns. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (7) (10/1 +9%) Jackson Street |
10/1(+9%) | (7) Jackson Street 10/1, Foaled April 24. €49,000 foal, €78,000 yearling, Dandy Man colt. Brother to smart winner up to 7f Lord of The Lodge, and half-brother to 7f winner Tsikina and 1½m winner Kingston Joy. Interesting newcomer. Brother to talented stablemate Lord Of The Lodge; betting may be informative on debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (4) (33/1 -65%) Double Red |
33/1(-65%) | (4) Double Red 33/1, Improved on debut form when seventh of 11 in minor event at Salisbury (8f, heavy) last month but not enough to be of interest here. Showed ability when seventh at Salisbury on second start but needs another step forward. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
There are plenty of well-bred newcomers to cast your eye on in this contest, but the one that appeals most is GREAT CHIEFTAIN. The son of Gleneagles was a 170,000-euro purchase and is bred to relish this distance, so it would be no surprise to see him figure on debut for a Paul & Oliver Cole stable that won a division of this race last year. Strong Opinion showed ability when fourth on debut over C&D and he should be thereabouts with normal progression. Any market confidence behind the well-related Kilt should be noted.
Ralph Beckett's 2-y-os have been firing for some time now and HUTCHENCE, who's bred to be smart, could be another to make a winning debut. Kilt and Lord of Love are a couple of other choicely-bred newcomers from top stables who are highly respected, while Strong Opinion should have learnt from his recent C&D debut and completes the shortlist before market clues.
Ralph Beckett has enjoyed an fine season with 2yos and HUTCHENCE, who cost in excess of 300,000gns, is taken to make a winning debut.

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (4) (18/1 -100%) Parisiac |
18/1(-100%) | (4) Parisiac 18/1, Has slipped to a handy mark and produced his best effort for a while when runner-up at Redcar last time. Could feature if he's able to back that up. Usually runs well in Class 5s; all wins at 6f but he's quick enough for 5f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (11) (17/2 -6%) Willingly |
17/2(-6%) | (11) Willingly 17/2, 3/1, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Nottingham (5f, soft) 16 days ago, bit in hand. Can make presence felt again. Nottingham winner; 5lb higher now back in a Class 5, but hard to dismiss. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (12) (10/1 +0%) Big Bard |
10/1(+0%) | (12) Big Bard 10/1, Scored on soft at Nottingham in July and, while not in the same form since, he's likely to strip fitter for his latest outing at Windsor. One to be interested in. Had a good year; below par the last twice but he's not handicapped out of it. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (11/2 +80%) Maxzeno |
11/2(+80%) | (9) Maxzeno 11/2, Fair maiden. Good second in 5f Nottingham handicap (heavy) in May. Not in the same form since but might have needed his latest run at Leicester, so can't be ruled out. Only fifth last time after a break; that was 6f and dropping back to 5f may help. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (22/1 +12%) Hover On The Wind |
22/1(+12%) | (8) Hover On The Wind 22/1, Down the weights and took a positive step when seventh on debut for this yard at Chelmsford last time. Back in cheekpieces and could go well under a positive ride. Maiden; only seventh at Chelmsford (6f) on his first run back with this yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (14) (7/1 +42%) Munificent |
7/1(+42%) | (14) Munificent 7/1, Scored at Wolverhampton in September and shaped as if back in form when fourth over a trip that stretches him at Yarmouth last time. Not dismissed. Returns to his best trip (ran over 7f latest) and he's had a solid year in the main. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (10) (11/2 +15%) Showalong |
11/2(+15%) | (10) Showalong 11/2, Scored at York in May, Below form twelfth of 19 in handicap at York (5f, good, 18/1) 97 days ago. Break needs to have perked him up ahead of this. Off since July but has run well fresh in the past and his mark is fine. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (6) (7/1 -40%) Cavalier Approach |
7/1(-40%) | (6) Cavalier Approach 7/1, On the up lately and justified support to gain his third win of the campaign at Hamilton last time. Might not have reached his limit and demands respect once again. On a career-high mark but in form and he likes these tracks with stiff finishes. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (1) (15/2 +6%) Antiphon |
15/2(+6%) | (1) Antiphon 15/2, On an appealing mark and bounced back to form when second at Windsor (excellent record there) 18 days ago, so could feature if he's able to back that up. Enjoyed the return to turf when beating all bar an unexposed improver at Windsor. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (3) (11/1 +8%) Sound Reason |
11/1(+8%) | (3) Sound Reason 11/1, Won at Beverley in July and, while he hasn't really fired since, his mark has edged back down and he was better than the result when third at Newcastle last time. Considered. None too consistent but a capable sprinter on his day; tongue-tie added. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (7) (10/1 -25%) Sera Dawn |
10/1(-25%) | (7) Sera Dawn 10/1, Creditable third of 9 in handicap (13/2) at Windsor (5.1f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Leaves the impression there's a race in her from this sort of mark if everything drops right. Has won off a higher mark and it was a solid run last time at Windsor. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (13) (11/1 -57%) Herakles |
11/1(-57%) | (13) Herakles 11/1, First run since leaving Bryan Smart when creditable third of 11 in handicap at Leicester (5f, good, 28/1) 39 days ago, nearest finish. Very much the type his new yard do well with and no surprise were he capable of better still. Encouraging stable debut when close up at Leicester and might well build on that. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (5) (66/1 -100%) Kessaar Power |
66/1(-100%) | (5) Kessaar Power 66/1, Doesn't seem to be firing at present, so others make more appeal. Won twice for a different yard earlier this year but patchy since and others more likely. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Willingly went in by just over a length when landing a class 6 event at Nottingham last month and she should go well once again off 5lb higher. However, preference is for THE THAMES BOATMAN, who was only denied by a half-length when second at Salisbury in September and he should have no problem with conditions off only 1lb higher. Cavalier Approach was victorious at Hamilton on his latest outing and also has to be considered.
HERAKLES is well treated and, having been picked up cheaply by current connections, he shaped encouragingly when third at Leicester in September. With a strong pace on the cards, he's worth taking a chance on, with Sera Dawn another one likely to benefit from the run of things. Cavalier Approach also merits plenty of respect.
Soft ground suits ANTIPHON (nap), who bumped into an unexposed improver at Windsor, and his turn may well have come around again.

Serene Seraph |
(12) (3/1 +10%)3/1(+10%) | (12) Serene Seraph 3/1, Ran with plenty of promise in maidens at Doncaster and Salisbury and duly opened her account at Newbury (7f, heavy) last month. Likely contender. Faces tougher opposition here but she's highly regarded and could be up to the task. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Romantic Style |
(11) (3/1 +25%)3/1(+25%) | (11) Romantic Style 3/1, Much improved when taking 12-runner minor event at Yarmouth (6f, good to soft) 44 days ago, plenty in hand. Steps up in grade now but it's likely we haven't seen the best of her yet. Won at Yarmouth on second start and could have plenty more to offer for top connections. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Navassa Island |
(10) (4/1 +11%)4/1(+11%) | (10) Navassa Island 4/1, Off the mark at the Curragh in August and backed that up with creditable third of 9 in Firth of Clyde Stakes at Ayr (6f, good, 9/2) 41 days ago. Will be dangerous if handling these slower conditions. Cheekpieces on first time. Irish challenger; Group 3 third at Ayr last time and she's a leading candidate on form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Stop The Cavalry |
(13) (6/1 -9%)6/1(-9%) | (13) Stop The Cavalry 6/1, 200,000 gns purchase who was a ready winner on her introduction at Haydock (6f, soft) in September. Should be plenty more to come and must enter calculations. Cruised clear to win on debut at Haydock and she could have lots more left in the tank. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Adaay In Devon |
(1) (12/1 +0%)12/1(+0%) | (1) Adaay In Devon 12/1, Completed the hat-trick at Carlisle in September and, though below par next time, she duly resumed winning ways with minimum fuss at Leicester (6f, heavy) 17 days ago. However, this is more demanding. Four wins from last five starts; up in grade here but knows how to get the job done. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Works Of Art |
(14) (14/1 -40%)14/1(-40%) | (14) Works Of Art 14/1, Kempton winner in July who upped her game when second of 10 in listed Two-Year-Old Trophy at Redcar (6f, good, 22/1) 27 days ago. Remains low mileage and is another to consider. Listed runner-up at Redcar last month and she's an each-way possible once more. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Happy Hadeda |
(4) (16/1 +36%)16/1(+36%) | (4) Happy Hadeda 16/1, Improved with each start thus far and got off the mark in 10-runner minor event at Kempton (6f) 37 days ago. May be more to come yet although is yet to prove herself on slow ground. Others have more substance to their form but she's unexposed and progressive; interesting. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Lexington Belle |
(9) (17/2 +23%)17/2(+23%) | (9) Lexington Belle 17/2, Not disgraced in Chantilly listed race last time and had posted career best when runner-up at Goodwood (7f, soft) previously. Shortlisted. Her best form puts her in the mix and surplus stamina may well be a plus in the conditions. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Komat |
(8) (40/1 -60%)40/1(-60%) | (8) Komat 40/1, Made a winning debut at Redcar in April and better form in defeat at listed/Group level since. However, her form took a turn for the worse in a valuable Doncaster sales race last time and she looks vulnerable. Disappointing last time but lost a shoe; earlier form puts her in the picture. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Eminny |
(2) (40/1 -21%)40/1(-21%) | (2) Eminny 40/1, Fairly useful filly who looked unlucky not to score (forced to delay challenge) when close second of 10 in nursery (7/2) at Nottingham (6.1f, heavy) 38 days ago. Asked a bigger question now but further improvement isn't out of the question. Went close in Nottingham nursery in September but needs something extra today. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Je Ne Sais Quoi |
(7) (80/1 -21%)80/1(-21%) | (7) Je Ne Sais Quoi 80/1, Back to winning ways in 6-runner nursery at Nottingham (5f, soft) 16 days ago but since left William Haggas and faces a stiff task on debut for new connections. Something to find now up in grade on stable debut but unexposed in testing conditions. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Heritage House |
(5) (100/1 -100%)100/1(-100%) | (5) Heritage House 100/1, Off the mark at Leicester in August and acquitted herself well in defeat behind Adaay In Devon at Leicester latest. This is tougher, however. Looked progressive when going close in Donny nursery but no match for Adaay In Devon since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Ziggy's Dream |
(15) (200/1 -400%)200/1(-400%) | (15) Ziggy's Dream 200/1, Back to winning ways in minor event at Wolverhampton last month but in much deeper waters here. Two wins from her nine starts; looks vulnerable now back up in grade. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Imperiality |
(6) (200/1 -300%)200/1(-300%) | (6) Imperiality 200/1, Opened account at Hamilton in July but ran poorly in Firth of Clyde Stakes latest and has plenty to find on form here. Hamilton maiden winner but last of nine in Group 3 at Ayr last time out. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
NAVASSA ISLAND finished a fine third in the Group 3 Firth Of Clyde at Ayr in September and a similar level of performance may suffice on this drop in class. Romantic Style justified strong support when opening her account at Yarmouth last time out and Charlie Appleby's filly isn't taken lightly. The Night Of Thunder filly may give the selection most to think about, ahead of in-form duo Works Of Art and Serene Seraph.
Plenty with claims here including STOP THE CAVALRY, who is in good hands and made a good impression on her Haydock debut in September. She gets the nod up in class. Serene Seraph and Lexington Belle are proven in testing conditions and may provide the chief threat.
Top of the list is STOP THE CAVALRY who impressed on her debut on soft ground at Haydock. Second choice is Romantic Style.

Al Qareem |
(1) (5/2 +38%)5/2(+38%) | (1) Al Qareem 5/2, Strong galloper who arrives better than ever, completing a double in good style in the Cumberland Lodge Stakes at Ascot last time. Another bold showing seems likely. Career-best form last two starts, winning a Listed race at Chester and Group 3 at Ascot. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Hamish |
(2) (5/4 -51%)5/4(-51%) | (2) Hamish 5/4, Three from three at pattern level this year, underlining how good he is in the mud when pulling 4 lengths clear in a Glorious Goodwood Group 3 when last seen in August. Hard to beat. Pipped by Max Vega at levels in this last year on heavy; six Group 3 wins (3-3 this term). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Max Vega |
(5) (11/1 +8%)11/1(+8%) | (5) Max Vega 11/1, Smart 6yo who has showed he retains plenty of ability this season but shaped as if amiss at Longchamp last time, leaving him with a bit to prove. Won this race last year on heavy going by a head from Hamish; similar revival is needed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
King Of Conquest |
(3) (11/2 +8%)11/2(+8%) | (3) King Of Conquest 11/2, Completed a four-timer in May and has remained in form since, far from discredited when second to My Prospero in listed race at Goodwood last time. Likeable type who should be on the premises again. Fair chance on pedigree that he'll stay and he ran on well last time; form player. |

(4) (17/2 +47%)17/2(+47%) | (4) Lone Eagle 17/2, Useful sort who wasn't discredited in a listed contest at Chester last time but is probably flying a bit too high at this level. 2nd to Hamish at Chester (1m5f, soft) in May is clearly the best of five runs this season. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Ching Shih |
(6) (20/1 -11%)20/1(-11%) | (6) Ching Shih 20/1, Useful filly who was much improved when second (clear of rest) to Arrest in the Geoffrey Freer Stakes here (13f) in August and ran close to that form when fourth in the Park Hill at Doncaster since. Respected for all that she has a bit to find. Form case rests on August's Gr 3 second at Newbury; even that leaves her with work to do. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
HAMISH looked better than ever when completing a hat-trick in the Group 3 King's Plate at Goodwood in August and a 3lb penalty may not be enough to prevent the gelded son of Motivator from going in again. King Of Conquest rates a potential improver now upped to 1m4f and the four-year-old shouldn't be far away if seeing out the trip, while Al Qareem's determined attitude is likely to stand him in good stead once more.
HAMISH stands out on form and relishes testing conditions, so he's a straightforward answer to this acknowledging that Al Qareem arrives on the up. King of Conquest is another reliable sort who should give his running again.
The solid option is HAMISH who has been selectively campaigned to win five of his seven races over the last two seasons.

Mexicali Rose |
(8) (4/1 +11%)4/1(+11%) | (8) Mexicali Rose 4/1, Easy winner of 7f Chepstow novice in August and produced her best effort yet when second of 12 in 1m handicap at Pontefract (1m, good to soft) last time. This stiffer test promises to suit and, with the forecast slow ground no problem, she's a big player. Strong finish when 2nd in 1m handicap at Pontefract (good to soft) latest start, best form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
First Officer |
(12) (5/1 +50%)5/1(+50%) | (12) First Officer 5/1, Seemed to be going through the motions, but tumbled down the weights and, with the headgear discarded, he resumed winning ways over C&D at the end of September, staying on to lead well inside final 1f. Up just 1 lb and merits respect, for all that this is a tougher assignment. Won off reduced mark latest; excellent places last autumn in his only two runs on heavy. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Decoration |
(7) (7/1 +22%)7/1(+22%) | (7) Decoration 7/1, Frankel filly who got off the mark at the third attempt in a Windsor maiden in July. Has made the frame both completed starts since, most recently finishing fourth of 9 upped to 1½m here last month, and she's an each-way player back at this trip. Fair first stab at 1m4f here on latest start but now needs to resume improvement; ground ?. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Cantora |
(10) (7/1 +22%)7/1(+22%) | (10) Cantora 7/1, Winner of back-to-back nurseries at the end of last season and back on the scoresheet at Beverley (1¼m, good to soft) in April. Has made the frame both starts since and recent rain will aid her cause, so she's worth considering. May have needed her latest run and it's possible she can resume her improvement. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Toshizou |
(3) (9/2 +31%)9/2(+31%) | (3) Toshizou 9/2, Useful operator for Joseph O'Brien and not far off that level for current yard, again finding only a 3-y-o too strong from his reduced mark at York (10.2f, soft) last month. Remains on a workable mark up 2 lb and he's one to consider. Placed over about 1m2f at Newbury (heavy) and York (soft) on last two outings. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Kamanika |
(15) (10/1 -67%)10/1(-67%) | (15) Kamanika 10/1, Enjoying a good campaign, registering win number 4 for the season when recently landing a Leicester handicap (1¼m, heavy). 3 lb rise fair enough and it would be no surprise to see this filly feature prominently once again. Four 1m2f wins this season, including on soft at Sandown and Leicester on last two outings. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Western Stars |
(11) (11/1 -38%)11/1(-38%) | (11) Western Stars 11/1, Made a bright start for new yard, landing handicaps at Haydock/Windsor (at up to 11.5f) and he looked unlucky not to finish closer having been short of room at latter-named venue recently. Clearly at the top of his game at present and possibilities again. Below form sole run on heavy; resurgent for new stable since; hampered last time out. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Warhol |
(14) (12/1 +33%)12/1(+33%) | (14) Warhol 12/1, Winner at Windsor (11.5f, heavy) in April and didn't do much wrong when runner-up there over this trip 18 days ago. This is more competitive, but he's in with an each-way shout nonetheless. Record is just 1-16 but there are plenty of positives too; each-way chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Hartswood |
(6) (18/1 -29%)18/1(-29%) | (6) Hartswood 18/1, Made successful return from much-reduced mark at Thirsk in May and, following a strong of consistent efforts, he resumed winning ways with his sights lowered at Ayr (1¼m, soft) last month. Not at his best last time, but he could easily bounce back with a bold show. Back up to 1m2f when winning at Ayr (soft) in October; not disgraced at York latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Ectocross |
(16) (18/1 -29%)18/1(-29%) | (16) Ectocross 18/1, Recorded a third win of this campaign at Nottingham (10.2f, heavy) in September and matched that when runner-up back at that venue last time. Dangerous to discount in current form, but he could prove vulnerable from 3 lb out of the handicap here. Won two of last five starts and 2nd in the others; acts on heavy; 3lb out of handicap. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Laafi |
(2) (20/1 -100%)20/1(-100%) | (2) Laafi 20/1, Nottingham maiden winner on second of his 2 starts as a juvenile, and performed with credit when third to Not So Sleepy back from a break/first run since being gelded at Newbury in September. Wasn't in the same form tried in cheekpieces (discarded) here next time and he needs to raise his game. Six races but it's already a pretty mixed record; a tongue-tie returns. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Expressionless |
(9) (28/1 -100%)28/1(-100%) | (9) Expressionless 28/1, Made winning return at Nottingham in April before following up in similarly testing conditions in an 8-runner Epsom handicap (8.5f) in April. However, put in his place off this mark back from a 6-month break at Goodwood recently and looked a non-stayer on sole previous try at this trip. Lesser show last time after layoff; looked capable of better in 1m wins (soft) this spring. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Throne Hall |
(1) (66/1 -100%)66/1(-100%) | (1) Throne Hall 66/1, Useful handicapper who tasted success twice over hurdles during second half of last year. Mixed bag under both codes since, though, and others are preferred for win purposes on this occasion. Not discredited trying 2m4f at Royal Ascot; others bring more pressing claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Tashi |
(13) (66/1 -100%)66/1(-100%) | (13) Tashi 66/1, Encouraging third on return/debut for this yard at Epsom during the spring, but she has largely struggled since and hopes now pinned in the first-time tongue strap/visor working the oracle. Placed in two (1m4f on soft) of six runs for new yard but the others were poor; new aids. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Deja |
(4) (100/1 -100%)100/1(-100%) | (4) Deja 100/1, Now the best part of 20 lb below his last winning mark, but he showed nothing on his sole start last season and it was much the same on his belated reappearance this time round at Windsor 11 days ago. Very lightly raced and he's been well beaten over the last three years (seven races). |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Kamanika arrives at the top of her game and a hat-trick cannot be ruled out off only 3lb higher than last month's victory at Leicester. Preference, however, is for fellow progressive three-year-old MEXICALI ROSE. The daughter of Zoffany has scope for improvement now tried over 1m2f for the first time and she ticks plenty of boxes. First Officer, Toshizou and Ectocross are all worth a second look in their current form, in a contest that is likely to work out well.
The one who appeals most is MEXICALI ROSE, who is clearly still improving judged on her solid effort at Pontefract and she may well have more to offer now faced with a stiffer test. Western Stars was unlucky not to finish closer when bidding for the hat-trick at Windsor and is feared most, while Toshizou's turn is surely near judged on recent displays and he is third choice ahead of the in-form Kamanika. Hartswood could also have a part to play if on-song.
This is a strong field but slight preference is for WESTERN STARS ahead of Mexicali Rose.

Havaila |
(8) (5/1 -25%)5/1(-25%) | (8) Havaila 5/1, Winner of a match over hurdles during the spring and followed that with a fine second back in this sphere at Goodwood (1¾m, good to soft). Beaten favourite both subsequent starts, but will be a threat if he gets a strong end-to-end gallop here. 130 days off before his recent outing when he might have needed the run but was favourite. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Clansman |
(10) (5/1 +17%)5/1(+17%) | (10) Clansman 5/1, Won 9-runner handicap at Ayr (15f, soft) early last month and followed that with a creditable third there (13f, heavy). He's reliable when the mud is flying and another bold show is on the cards. Raced too freely when he attempted 2m; in-form candidate after 1m7f and 1m5f runs at Ayr. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Dreams Adozen |
(9) (7/2 +42%)7/2(+42%) | (9) Dreams Adozen 7/2, Recorded third win of the year when successful at Chester in September. Not discredited when third of 11 in handicap at York (13.8f, heavy) next time before underperforming upped to this trip at Kempton. Likely to find one or two too good. Sixth of seven at Kempton (AW) nine days ago when attempting 2m for the first time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Haveyoumissedme |
(1) (10/1 -25%)10/1(-25%) | (1) Haveyoumissedme 10/1, Landed 6-runner handicap at Newcastle on final start of last season. Never in the hunt back from 13 months off at York, but that spin will have blown away the cobwebs and he's worth a second look. Mostly ran well last season but not seen this term until three weeks ago, when well beaten. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Black Kalanisi |
(7) (10/3 +26%)10/3(+26%) | (7) Black Kalanisi 10/3, Versatile veteran who justified good support when resuming winning ways at Pontefract (2¼m, good to soft), leading 2f out and keeping on well. 3 lb rise by no means the end of the world and he's a must for the shortlist. Pontefract win latest; usually thereabouts; there are more doubts over most of the others. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Coquelicot |
(6) (13/2 -30%)13/2(-30%) | (6) Coquelicot 13/2, Fairly useful winner at up to 3m over hurdles and showed much improved form in this sphere when forging clear in a 2m Nottingham (heavy) in April. Turned over at short odds both starts since, but conditions won't be a problem and she needs considering. Off since May; blinkers removed; needs better still but there's no doubt over her stamina. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Land Of Winter |
(3) (14/1 +13%)14/1(+13%) | (3) Land Of Winter 14/1, Wide-margin winner of a small-field handicap at Beverley off this mark in July, but been in the doldrums since and needs to bounce back in a major way. Won four-runner race at Beverley (2m, soft) in July but out of form since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Paricolor |
(11) (20/1 +20%)20/1(+20%) | (11) Paricolor 20/1, Absent since pulled up in a Plumpton handicap hurdle in March (since undergone another wind op), and it's hard to know what to expect of him on his first start for over 4 years. Had a troubled end to last jumps season and had wind surgery since; headgear change. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
September Power |
(5) (22/1 -144%)22/1(-144%) | (5) September Power 22/1, Has already scored 3 times this season, winning by a wide margin at Beverley in August before producing a clear career best from out of the blue when causing an upset in a York handicap in September. Not disgraced back on the Knavesmire last time and she's not without hope here. 2m wins at Beverley in August and York in September; needs a career best. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Ian Williams landed the corresponding event 12 months ago and he is fancied to repeat the dose with BLACK KALANISI. The 10-year-old showed an excellent attitude when recording a comfortable success at Pontefract last month and, with no concerns regarding the ground, he can follow up off just 3lb higher. September Power ought to fare better down in class and he must enter calculations, along with Coquelicot, who remains open to further improvement in this sphere.
The veteran BLACK KALANISI earns the vote on the back of his Pontefract success, for which a 3 lb rise looks fair. Clansman has been in good form at Ayr of late and is likely to emerge as the main danger ahead of September Power. Coquelicot and Havaila are also dangerous.
A second attempt at 2m looks in order for CLANSMAN, whose stout finish saw him finish on top over 1m7f on soft going at Ayr.

Torcello |
(5) (5/1 +0%)5/1(+0%) | (5) Torcello 5/1, Won this event (off 5 lb lower) last year and posted solid fourth in stronger contest at Goodwood (14f, heavy) when last seen 90 days ago. Shortlist material. Goes well on softer than good and has a good record at this track; interesting. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Wind Your Neck In |
(10) (5/2 +72%)5/2(+72%) | (10) Wind Your Neck In 5/2, Course winner who returned to form when creditable third of 8 in handicap at Nottingham (10.2f, heavy) 23 days ago, needing stronger gallop. 1 lb lower now and merits consideration. 2nd in three of nine starts this season and fair third (1m2f, heavy) on latest outing. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Crystal Delight |
(6) (9/1 -20%)9/1(-20%) | (6) Crystal Delight 9/1, Plenty of creditable efforts in handicaps this year, latest when second of 9 over C&D (good to firm) 36 days ago. Effective on slower ground and ought to give another good account. Recent slow starts are a concern, as is his heavy defeat at on soft ground in September. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Mr Alan |
(1) (9/2 -13%)9/2(-13%) | (1) Mr Alan 9/2, Back to winning ways when narrowly taking 8-runner handicap at Nottingham (10.2f, heavy) 16 days ago. 3 lb rise fair and holds solid follow-up claims. Won by a nose last time (1m2f, heavy); 5th in last Year's November Handicap (1m4f, heavy). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Splendent |
(3) (11/2 +39%)11/2(+39%) | (3) Splendent 11/2, Successful for the third time this year when scoring in Hungary under Frankie Dettori in September. Raced freely when third over C&D (good to firm) since, leaving the impression that a stronger gallop would've been ideal. Versatile ground-wise and warrants respect. Three wins this season; his form dipped three starts back when he encountered heavy going. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Kardia |
(11) (15/2 -50%)15/2(-50%) | (11) Kardia 15/2, Lightly-raced filly who was back from 5 months off when second of 5 in minor event at Ripon (12f, soft) 34 days ago, clear of rest. Handicapping may bring about further improvement. Only three races; this handicap debut should be stamina test at 1m4f; needs a second look. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Carzola |
(4) (16/1 -167%)16/1(-167%) | (4) Carzola 16/1, Completed the hat-trick in facile fashion switched to turf in 4-runner event at Doncaster (16.5f, heavy) during the spring. Misfired at Haydock when last seen in May and while fast ground may have been the issue that day, she will need to improve back from a break here. Her chance is presumably boosted by a return to testing ground on this first run since May. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Soto Sizzler |
(2) (22/1 -57%)22/1(-57%) | (2) Soto Sizzler 22/1, Course winner who arrives on back of good second of 6 in handicap at Epsom (10.1f, good to firm) 33 days ago. On a workable mark but isn't the easiest to win with these days. This year's three placings having come in smaller fields but he is not dismissed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Graphite |
(8) (25/1 -39%)25/1(-39%) | (8) Graphite 25/1, Has slipped to a potentially handy mark, but losing run stretches back to August 2021 and hasn't troubled the judge in either start this term. Two respectable efforts this summer; absent 111 days; has a good record on soft ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Whipmaster |
(9) (40/1 -60%)40/1(-60%) | (9) The Whipmaster 40/1, Improved last season, completing 4-timer in the first half of the year. Took advantage of a falling mark when resuming winning ways at Windsor in June, but mixed bag since and tends to do most of his racing on good/good to firm. Six wins on turf, none on worse than good to soft; has a competitive mark if again on song. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Southern Voyage |
(7) (40/1 -21%)40/1(-21%) | (7) Southern Voyage 40/1, Ended last year with victory for Archie Watson at Newcastle but made little impact in a couple of outings for new connections this year. Absent nearly a year before well held this autumn; not proven on softer than good. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
An open event which could go the way of MR ALAN, who got back on track with a narrow success at Nottingham 16 days ago. George Boughey's charge must compete off 3lb higher today, but he was a creditable fifth in the November Handicap from 1lb lower last year and will have no problem with forecast ground conditions. Torcello seldom runs poorly around here and must be given the utmost respect, while others to note include the returning Carzola and handicap debutant Kardia.
Preference is for Nottingham winner MR ALAN, who has had a light campaign and goes well with plenty of give underfoot. Sole 3-y-o Kardia is feared most on handicap debut whilst last year's winner Torcello also enters calculations.
Last year's winner Torcello is not passed over lightly but CARZOLA might prove too hot for him given the win on soft ground in May.

Mayz |
(17) (6/1 +50%)6/1(+50%) | (17) Mayz 6/1, Upped in trip and faced with softer ground than previously, much improved when getting off the mark in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, heavy) 11 days ago. Task is now to build on her latest effort under a penalty. Won comfortably when upped to 1m and switched to heavy ground last month; 6lb penalty. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Forward Flight |
(5) (6/1 +14%)6/1(+14%) | (5) Forward Flight 6/1, Bounced back to his best when winning handicap at Yarmouth (1m, soft) 18 days ago, deserving extra credit having never been far away in a soundly-run race. Remains on a workable mark so he's not one to take lightly. Kept on well to lead close home on soft ground last month; 2lb rise ought to be manageable. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Kalamunda |
(4) (7/2 +22%)7/2(+22%) | (4) Kalamunda 7/2, Has been going the right way since switched to handicaps, getting off the mark at Southwell last month before comfortably defying a penalty at Kempton (1m) 8 days later. Leading contender as he bids for the hat-trick. Bids for hat-trick after two emphatic AW wins last month; should be okay back on slow turf. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Marsh Benham |
(1) (9/2 +63%)9/2(+63%) | (1) Marsh Benham 9/2, In first-time cheekpieces, proved better than ever when landing handicap at Windsor (8.1f, heavy) 11 days ago, proving his effectiveness on testing ground. Now has a career-high mark to overcome under his penalty. Looked as good as ever when winning on heavy ground last week; respected under penalty. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Poet's Dawn |
(3) (10/1 +29%)10/1(+29%) | (3) Poet's Dawn 10/1, Capitalised on reduced mark when winning at Redcar (1m) in September and, after finishing well held next time, quickly back to form when making the frame at York (10.2f, soft) 20 days ago. Could be thereabouts once more. No longer the force of old but ran well when fourth on soft ground at York last month. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Mount King |
(7) (10/1 -67%)10/1(-67%) | (7) Mount King 10/1, Opened account under an enterprising ride at Thirsk in September and has run well both starts since, recording a narrow success at Pontefract (1m, good to soft) on his latest outing. Going through a good spell at present. Just held on at Pontefract last month and has now won two of his last three. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Monkmoor Pip |
(8) (11/1 +8%)11/1(+8%) | (8) Monkmoor Pip 11/1, Made some appeal on paper and got off to a winning start at Lingfield (1m, AW) in September. Ran at least as well when third in minor event at the same C&D next time, but will need to find more again as he makes his turf/handicap debut. Made bright start to career on AW this autumn; switched to slow turf for handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Albus Anne |
(16) (11/2 +31%)11/2(+31%) | (16) Albus Anne 11/2, Gained a first success at Bath (1m, soft) in October and backed up that effort faced with even more testing conditions when second at the same C&D 16 days ago. Merits consideration in her current mood. Consistent filly; suited by slow ground and in good form but others look better treated. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Macho Sun |
(13) (20/1 +20%)20/1(+20%) | (13) Macho Sun 20/1, After 11 weeks off and with cheekpieces on for first time, went backwards from his previous effort when down the field at Leicester (10f, heavy) 17 days ago. Headgear quickly discarded, but others still preferred as he looks for his first win. Flopped in cheekpieces last time but has claims if judged on heavy-ground second in August. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Big Bear Hug |
(11) (25/1 -108%)25/1(-108%) | (11) Big Bear Hug 25/1, Handles testing ground well and belatedly shed her maiden tag at Leicester (8.2f) in May. After 4 months off, possibly needed the run when third of 6 at Bath 16 days ago. Cheekpieces on first time and she could fare better with her recent run behind her. Well held when third of six at Bath this month and today's race is much stronger. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Glencalvie |
(9) (25/1 +38%)25/1(+38%) | (9) Glencalvie 25/1, Making handicap debut, fared little better than on previous starts for her current yard when a never-threatening fourth at Yarmouth (1m, soft) in September. Has plenty to find on form with tongue strap now reached for. Made encouraging handicap debut when fourth on soft ground in September; 2lb lower now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Lunanera |
(6) (40/1 -100%)40/1(-100%) | (6) Lunanera 40/1, Made his second handicap start a winning one when scoring in good style at Chepstow (1m) in August. However, well held both starts since so he needs to get back on track, though it does still remain early days with his current yard. Clearcut winner in August, his second British run, but two poor efforts have followed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Superluminal |
(14) (50/1 -25%)50/1(-25%) | (14) Superluminal 50/1, Ran to a fair level when second in Windsor minor event (8.1f, soft) in May, but that remains a standout effort. Application of blinkers not enough to tempt. Well beaten in all three handicaps; drops back in trip with blinkers added today. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Mhajim |
(12) (125/1 -525%)125/1(-525%) | (12) Mhajim 125/1, Down the field all 5 starts for his current yard but, in first-time hood, caught the eye when 5½ lengths ninth of 13 at Chelmsford (10f) 22 days ago. Lurks on a dangerous mark as he drops down in trip. Well down the field on all five stable starts but still needs attention in the betting. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Tiger Touch |
(15) (125/1 -150%)125/1(-150%) | (15) Tiger Touch 125/1, Fairly useful winner in France but has struggled for form in Britain, finishing well held at Newcastle on his latest outing last summer. Off 16 months ahead of first run for yard after leaving David O'Meara. Not seen since a poor run for David O'Meara in June 2022; probably best watched. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
KALAMUNDA has found significant improvement since turning his attentions to handicaps. A commanding winner at Southwell last month, he followed up under a penalty at Kempton eight days later and a further 8lb rise might not be enough to prevent him from landing the hat-trick. Albus Anne should not be far away having finished a creditable second at Bath last time. Mount King, Forward Flight and Marsh Benham are just a few others to be interested in.
KALAMUNDA continued his progress when scoring comfortably at Kempton 16 days ago and he can go on to land the hat-trick in his current form. Heading the list of dangers is Forward Flight, who returned to his best when successful at Yarmouth on his latest outing, while Albus Anne and Poet's Dawn are two others to consider in this open-looking contest.
Preference is for FORWARD FLIGHT, who did well to reel in the warm favourite on soft ground at Yarmouth 18 days ago.

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.
