LTO Selection:

13:30 Nottingham Maiden (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

MEDICI CHAPEL has been running with credit on the all-weather over the winter months and connections might wonder how she has yet to get her head in front. The daughter of Iffraaj is bred to appreciate further than the minimum trip but she's likely to be allowed the lead here and, if stamina comes into play on forecast soft ground, the others might find it hard to catch her. Popular Dream shaped with promise when finishing a good third at Chelmsford in December and he must enter calculations with improvement likely. Storm Fox ran well on soft ground at Beverley last season and this less demanding finish could see her to greater effect.

POPULAR DREAM showed plenty amidst greenness when third on her debut at Chelmsford in December and seems sure to progress, especially with her yard going well, so she's an appealing candidate. Fair Wind is clear pick of the newcomers before market clues, while it would come as no surprise to see Medici Chapel placed again.

Nicely bred for sprints, FAIR WIND has been found a realistic opportunity on debut. Popular Dream is taken to chase him home.

Goldkit

Zara's Return

4
4/1(+43%)
(5) Zara's Return 4/1, Below par when last seen in August but had posted fair form previously and must enter calculations on return to action.
LTO Selection:

14:05 Nottingham Stakes (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

INVESTED kicked clear to score over 6f at Chelmsford in February and, with stamina in her pedigree, a step up in trip could unlock further improvement. Her biggest danger could arrive in the form of Goldkit, who continues to run well in defeat and she may relish the switch to turf. Expressionless outran her odds in a valuable auction race at Newmarket first time out and, though he failed to kick on, Dylan Cunha's gelding is likely to have strengthened up over the winter and should not be underestimated.

GOLDKIT has proved consistent on the AW this winter and can get off the mark at the first time of asking on turf. Invested is progressive and rates the principal danger.

The change of surface poses a big question but INVESTED and Goldkit, who have been in AW action this year, top the list.

Bleak

1.38
1.38/1(+54%)
(5) Bleak 1.38/1, Half-brother to a couple of winners and shaped with promise when fifth in a novice at Newcastle. Will have learned plenty from that, so he's worth a chance to open his account.

Blondelle

200

4
11th (4) Bauhinia Rhapsody (4/1 -14%)
Bauhinia Rhapsody

4
4/1(-14%)
(4) Bauhinia Rhapsody 4/1, Placed on two of his three starts last year and appeals as the type to do better as a 3-y-o (gelded since last seen). Sets the standard and demands respect.
3
12th (3) The Waiting Game (11/1 +78%)
The Waiting Game

11
11/1(+78%)
(3) The Waiting Game 11/1, From an excellent family but hasn't shown enough to date to make her of serious interest in this.
LTO Selection:

14:40 Nottingham Maiden (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Bauhinia Rhapsody sets the standard with an official rating of 76 and he's likely to make his presence felt, along with Bleak, who made a promising debut at Newcastle 22 days ago despite racing freely. However, the vote goes to MILITARY TYCOON, who wasn't beaten far by a potentially smart rival, Yaanaas, first time out. Jim Crowley alluded to the latter having the ability to contest much stronger races in the upcoming season, giving a solid look to the form. With improvement likely from Hugo Palmer's charge, and in the hands of promising apprentice Harry Davies, he could open his account.

BLEAK made a promising start and should improve plenty, so he takes marginal preference over Bauhinia Rhapsody, who has the best form to date. Regheeb strikes as a notable newcomer.

The William Haggas-trained BLEAK showed promise when fifth on his debut at Newcastle three weeks ago and earns the vote.

Racingbreaks Ryder

3
3/1(+45%)
(7) Racingbreaks Ryder 3/1, Off the mark at the fourth attempt at Brighton when last seen 174 days ago. Likely to do better this season, so merits respect if strong in the betting for return.
6
2nd (6) Supreme King (12/1 +57%)
Supreme King

12
12/1(+57%)
(6) Supreme King 12/1, Fairly useful form as a juvenile and bred to do better still, so worthy of interest if the market speaks in his favour after 166 days off.
8
3rd (8) Spioradalta (16/1 +11%)
Spioradalta

16
16/1(+11%)
(8) Spioradalta 16/1, Proved opening mark a fair one when scoring at Catterick (7f) in September, staying on to lead final 100 yds (in first-time cheekpieces). Similar form when runner-up on each of his 3 starts since. Returns from 5 months off with solid claims.
9
4th (9) Gifted Angel (25/1 +0%)
Gifted Angel

(9) Gifted Angel 25/1, Fair performer who was below form at Newmarket when last seen. Looks vulnerable to less-exposed types.

Serious Look

2
6th (2) Solutre (8/1 +56%)
Solutre

8
8/1(+56%)
(2) Solutre 8/1, Clear of the rest when chasing home a potentially smart Godolphin colt in Naval Power at Leicester in June and scored in a Newcastle maiden following month. At least respectable efforts both starts after and can't be ruled out back from 5 months off.
1
7th (1) Just Bring It (4.5/1 +18%)
Just Bring It

4.5
4.5/1(+18%)
(1) Just Bring It 4.5/1, Career best when winning 5-runner handicap (8/11) at Kempton (8f) 35 days ago, bit in hand. Going the right way and a 4-lb rise might not be enough to stop him.
4
8th (4) Woodstock (3.5/1 +42%)
Woodstock

3.5
3.5/1(+42%)
(4) Woodstock 3.5/1, Built on debut second when comfortably landing short odds at Chelmsford and didn't need to improve again to double his tally at Kempton. Remains with potential now switched to handicaps.
3
9th (3) Goodfella (12/1 -140%)
Goodfella

12
12/1(-140%)
(3) Goodfella 12/1, Progressive last season, just denied in a novice at Newbury on final outing. Could do better still and a good gallop will suit on return.
LTO Selection:

15:15 Nottingham Handicap (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Just Bring It landed the odds at Kempton on his reappearance last month and a subsequent 4lb rise in the handicap could prove lenient, but WOODSTOCK edges the vote. He finished a good second on his racecourse debut having attracted significant market support and the Sixties Icon colt gained immediate compensation, winning his next two starts. The switch to turf should hold no fears and he could provide Jack Channon, who has enjoyed a productive start to his training career, with another winner. Racingbreaks Ryder should relish the forecast ground conditions and he merits respect on his handicap bow.

JUST BRING IT boasts a progressive profile and had something to spare when scoring at Kempton recently, so he should take the beating if he proves as effective back on turf. Woodstock arrives on a hat-trick and is a big danger, while Goodfella is worthy of interest having set a solid platform in 3 runs last season.

Topweight JUST BRING IT was a well-backed winner on his reappearance at Kempton last month and is taken to follow up.

Coquelicot

2.25
2.25/1(+63%)
(8) Coquelicot 2.25/1, Plugged on for fourth on October's reappearance over 14f here and won back-to-back handicap over hurdles to end 2022. Brushed aside back on the level at Southwell and needs to leave that effort behind.
10

Tuddenham Green

2.12
2.12/1(+29%)
(10) Tuddenham Green 2.12/1, Race-by-race progress in novice/maidens at up to 1m as a 2-y-o. Ran only twice in handicaps last year but arrives on the back of a hurdles win (match) and he retains plenty of potential on the level from this sort of mark.
7
3rd (7) Jon Snow (33/1 -83%)
Jon Snow

33
33/1(-83%)
(7) Jon Snow 33/1, Useful hurdler for Willie Mullins. Low-key stable debut over hurdles but fitted with blinkers, he showed a bit more on the level at Kempton last month. Did have the run of the race on that occasion.
1
4th (1) Orin Swift (18/1 -64%)
Orin Swift

18
18/1(-64%)
(1) Orin Swift 18/1, Gained reward for his consistency in 6-runner handicap over 17f at Bath in June. Excellent third from same mark at Goodwood when last seen in October and record fresh offers plenty of hope.
2
5th (2) Caldwell (28/1 -40%)
Caldwell

28
28/1(-40%)

5
6th (5) Justus (11/1 -83%)
Justus

11

3
7th (3) Haarar (6/1 -20%)

Tin Fandango

4
11th (4) De Vega's Warrior (25/1 -79%)
De Vega's Warrior

25
25/1(-79%)
(4) De Vega's Warrior 25/1, Has never stood much racing and shaped as though better for the run on AW reappearance 3 weeks ago. Worth another go at 2m with that under his belt.
LTO Selection:

15:50 Nottingham Handicap (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

It might pay to side with the Michael Bell-trained HAARAR in what would appear to be a wide-open contest. He kept on powerfully over 1m4f at Newmarket when last seen, only to be narrowly denied by a well-treated rival. His pedigree, along with that effort, would offer hope that he can stay the marathon trip and connections could use this as a springboard to other staying events over the upcoming turf season. Three-time hurdles winner Coquelicot remains open to improvement in this sphere, while Orin Swift has dropped to his last winning mark and he could be involved.

TUDDENHAM GREEN retains plenty of potential as a staying handicapper and fit from a hurdles win in a match a fortnight ago, he has a lot in his favour. Haarar returns with his yard among the winners so he's a threat, with Orin Swift completing the shortlist given his good record fresh.

Orin Swift and Tin Fandango can go well but this may be decided by the less exposed pair COQUELICOT and Tuddenham Green.

5

Al Hargah

14
14/1(-56%)
(5) Al Hargah 14/1, Caught the eye on qualifying run in novice events when fourth over 1m at Windsor in October. Easy to back and never figured on nursery debut at Newmarket (9f, soft) later that month and she may just find a couple too good on return to action.
LTO Selection:

16:25 Nottingham Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Each of these have the scope to progress up in trip, so only a tentative vote can go to ROADWAY. The 300,000-dollar purchase, a half-sister to Group 2 winner Storm The Stars, perhaps paid the price for pressing the pace at Wolverhampton last month. That shouldn't be the case here, however, and in receipt of weight all round (when factoring in Benoit De La Sayette's 3lb claim), she could get her head in front. Entrancement won here in October and that track craft could prove vital as she looks to mount another serious challenge on her stable debut for David Menuisier, while Reflective Star merits the utmost respect as the Godolphin juggernaut attempt to continue their dominance.

The market should prove informative but ENTRANCEMENT proved her effectiveness under these conditions when making her final start for Harry Dunlop a winning one over 1m here in the autumn and she shades the vote now tackling this longer trip. Peace of Mine and Reflective Star are others to consider, whilst Fantizzy is also well worth keeping an eye on.

Having won on soft ground over the extended 1m at this track last October for Harry Dunlop, ENTRANCEMENT (nap) has the least to prove.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

ECTOCROSS took a marked step forward on what he'd shown in novice events to make a successful handicap debut at Lingfield last month. Simon Dow's colt was value for much more than the winning margin would suggest, having been short of room in the closing stages, and a subsequent 2lb rise in the ratings might not be enough to halt further progress. Dog Fox ought to benefit from a step up in trip and he's one to monitor closely in the betting market ahead of his handicap bow, while similar comments apply to the Charlie Johnston-trained Peaceful Night.

ECTOCROSS proved a different proposition upped in trip on handicap bow when coming from last to first at Lingfield on his return last month and should prove hard to beat if handling these different conditions off only 2 lb higher. Peaceful Night and Dog Fox both appeal as the type to do better now stepping up in trip and handicapping so are feared most.

This will be on a very different surface but ECTOCROSS makes most appeal after his last-gasp win in a 1m2f handicap on AW at Lingfield.
