Nighteyes

0.73
0.73/1(+0%)
(2) Nighteyes 0.73/1, Sets clear standard on her runner-up effort at York last month. Below form second of 12 in novice event at Thirsk (7f, good to soft, evens) 10 days ago but this is a good race to bounce back in.
Lowther entry whose best two efforts set the form standard.

Roast Chestnut

2/1(+33%)
(4) Roast Chestnut 2/1, Fifth of 13 in novice event at Windsor (6f, good to firm, 12/1) on debut 21 days ago. Expected to build on that.
Encouraging debut at Windsor; respected with progress on the cards.

3rd (1) Chumbaa (10/1 -33%)
Chumbaa

10
10/1(-33%)
(1) Chumbaa 10/1, Fair filly. Creditable second of 7 in maiden (10/3) at Pontefract (5f, good to soft) 8 days ago, no match for winner. Limit looks well established.
Consistent maiden but record of 0-10 reflects her limitations.

Treat Of Treats

16/1(-146%)
(5) Treat Of Treats 16/1, Foaled March 6. 60,000 gns foal, Kodiac filly. Closely related to 5f-7f winner Annie's Song and half-sister to 11f winner Hopespringseternal.
60,000gns foal; by Kodiac; heed the market signals.

30,000gns yearling; by Soldier's Call; market can guide.
LTO Selection:

14:45 Ripon Stakes (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Although NIGHTEYES was no match for the impressive Darnation at Thirsk last time, the David O'Meara-trained filly looks more than capable of shedding her maiden tag at this level and is hard to oppose. Roast Chestnut is entitled to build on her debut fifth at Windsor last month and may give the selection most to think about. Treat Of Treats is an eye-catching newcomer and would be interesting with any market support.

ROAST CHESTNUT rates a sure-fire improver on the back of a promising debut at Windsor and with form-pick Nighteyes disappointing last time, she could be the answer. Treat of Treats is another to note on debut.

Another chance, albeit somewhat tentatively, is given to NIGHTEYES. Likely improver Roast Chestnut is feared most.

The Spinmeister

200
200/1(-60%)
(5) The Spinmeister 200/1, Offered little in 2 starts of the latter stages of last season and hopes very much pinned on the first-time hood sparking improvement.

1st (2) Havana Pursuit (2.75/1 +77%)
Havana Pursuit

2.75
2.75/1(+77%)
(2) Havana Pursuit 2.75/1, Showed a bit more than he did on debut when fourth in a 9-runner novice here (6f, good to soft) recently. Should cope with this drop to the minimum trip but improvement will be needed if he's to emerge on top.
7
2nd (7) Corellian Star (1.5/1 +25%)
Corellian Star

1.5
1.5/1(+25%)
(7) Corellian Star 1.5/1, Third both starts over this trip on soft ground at Nottingham and Leicester. Form looks pretty modest but, of those with experience, she still sets the standard and bold show anticipated.
4
3rd (4) No More Heroes (5.5/1 -57%)
No More Heroes

5.5
5.5/1(-57%)
(4) No More Heroes 5.5/1, 50,000 gns yearling who offered something to work on when making his debut at Leicester (5f, soft) recently, for all that he finished nearer last then first. Should be more street-wise this time and no surprise if he takes a step forward.
9
4th (9) Opal Storm (25/1 +69%)
Opal Storm

25
25/1(+69%)
(9) Opal Storm 25/1, Just minor promise in a couple of 6f novice events so far and she's another who will probably do better in handicaps later on.
1
5th (1) Frank The Spark (80/1 +36%)
Frank The Spark

80
80/1(+36%)
(1) Frank The Spark 80/1, Little impact both starts to date and probably more one for handicaps in due course.
6
6th (6) Bonny Scot (40/1 -100%)
Bonny Scot

40
40/1(-100%)
(6) Bonny Scot 40/1, Bated Breath filly. Dam unraced out of half-sister to Summer Mile winner Aljamaaheer. Yard seldom strikes with newcomers but worth a second look in the betting nonetheless.
3
7th (3) Haworth Star (11/1 +0%)
Haworth Star

11
11/1(+0%)
(3) Haworth Star 11/1, Signs of ability amid greenness when fifth on debut at Carlisle (7f). Inexperience again in evidence dropped to 6f here next time and this further drop in trip is of dubious benefit. Yard also saddles No More Heroes.
8
8th (8) Juri (4/1 -190%)
Juri

4
4/1(-190%)
(8) Juri 4/1, Invincible Spirit filly. Sister to smart 2-y-o 5.4f/6f winner Ajaya and half-sister to very smart winner up to 1½m Extra Elusive. Slight concern that she sports a hood on debut but very appealing on paper otherwise.
LTO Selection:

15:20 Ripon Stakes (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Corellian Star sets a fair standard judged on her two third-placed finishes at Nottingham and Leicester, but she could prove vulnerable to the well-bred newcomer JURI. Roger Varian's filly is a full-sister to Ajaya, who won the Gimcrack, and the daughter of Invincible Spirit could take some stopping. Havana Pursuit and Haworth Star may battle it out for the minor money.

While it's somewhat disconcerting that JURI is equipped with a hood for this belated debut, she certainly wouldn't need to be anything out of the ordinary to make a winning start here and confidence behind her in the betting would look significant. Corellian Star is the pick of those with experience and is second choice ahead of likely improver No More Heroes.

Corellian Star is the form pick but nicely bred JURI may prove good enough to make a winning debut.

Ey Up It's Maggie

1.25
1.25/1(+38%)
(2) Ey Up It's Maggie 1.25/1, Gambled on to make a winning return at Doncaster and having edged back towards that mark in a quiet spell subsequently, she shaped as if a return to form may not be too far away in a big field at York last time. Respected.
Ran respectably in big field at York nine days ago; spring win came off this mark.

Origintrail

6.5
6.5/1(+41%)
(1) Origintrail 6.5/1, On a handy mark and has offered signs of encouragement this term, so can't be completely discounted down in class if settling better.
Not entirely disgraced dropped to bare 5f last time; now drops in grade off handy mark.

Storm Fox

3.33/1(+70%)
(5) Storm Fox 3.33/1, Winner at Thirsk in June and went close at Leicester next time. Well held at Doncaster latest but should bounce back.
Consistent spell in May/June; form dipped last time but may bounce back.

Mrs Trump

4
4/1(+0%)
(6) Mrs Trump 4/1, Still a maiden but did run best race when second in 5f Doncaster apprentice handicap last time. One to consider.
Maiden who has shown signs that she's capable of winning an ordinary handicap.
3
5th (3) Selby's Pride (9/1 -29%)
Selby's Pride

9
9/1(-29%)
(3) Selby's Pride 9/1, C&D winner. 50/1, fifteenth of 16 in handicap at York (6f, good) 10 days ago. Blinkered for 1st time. Needs headgear to perk her up.
Chance partly depends on whether new headgear prompts a revival.
LTO Selection:

15:55 Ripon Handicap (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

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

MRS TRUMP posted another sound effort in defeat when runner-up at Doncaster last month and compensation could await off the same mark here. Ey Up It's Maggie was far from disgraced when fifth of 19 at York nine days ago and is feared most off 1lb lower. Storm Fox wasn't at her best when upped to an extended 5f on her most recent outing and may prove more competitive returned to this distance.

EY UP IT'S MAGGIE could resume winning ways if the ground stays on the slow side, following a promising run at York. Star of Lady M and Mrs Trump are feared.

Back down in class off her last winning mark, EY UP IT'S MAGGIE gets the verdict. Origintrail is second choice.

Bay Breeze

2.5
2.5/1(+25%)
(3) Bay Breeze 2.5/1, Three-3-time C&D winner, the latest on soft in April. Also successful at Thirsk in May but not at best in recent starts. This the sort of race he could bounce back in, though.
C&D record at Class 3 or lower reads 1113; interesting back in ideal scenario.
4
2nd (4) Fortamour (2/1 +0%)
Fortamour

2
2/1(+0%)
(4) Fortamour 2/1, Won this race in 2021 and added two more C&D wins last year (including on heavy). Back on a good mark and had the 7f trip as a possible excuse for a lesser effort at York last time. Well handicapped back at his favoured venue.
Three-time C&D winner off higher marks, including in this race two years ago.
1
3rd (1) Twelfth Knight (2.75/1 -38%)
Twelfth Knight

2.75
2.75/1(-38%)
(1) Twelfth Knight 2.75/1, Pair of wins this spring, the latter over C&D on heavy. Even better form when placed twice over C&D in June and he can have a line put through his latest run at Ayr as he simply did too much too soon.
This is easier than latest assignment; form figures over C&D read 123; respected.
2
4th (2) Faro De San Juan (4/1 +27%)
Faro De San Juan

4
4/1(+27%)
(2) Faro De San Juan 4/1, Sprung a 25/1 surprise at Chester (6f, good) in June but below par at Pontefract and Yarmouth since, albeit in more competitive races than this. Acts on heavy. Engaged 4.45 Haydock Sunday.
Won at Chester in June; below that form since, including at Haydock on Sunday.
LTO Selection:

16:30 Ripon Handicap (Class 3) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

FORTAMOUR was second by a length behind Twelfth Knight over C&D in May, but he is now aided by an 8lb pull in the weights and the gelding may benefit from a return to softer ground. That said, Twelfth Knight cannot be discounted and is an obvious threat once again. Bay Breeze eases in grade and he could also get into contention.

A small field but it includes a trio of C&D specialists. FORTAMOUR is well handicapped and can land this race for the second time in the last 3 years. Twelfth Knight can follow him home.

On favourable terms FORTAMOUR may well win this contest for a second time. Twelfth Knight is second choice.

Zarabanda

3
3/1(+14%)
(2) Zarabanda 3/1, Got back on the up to gain a first win in handicap company over 1m at Nottingham 20 days ago. Goes very well on soft ground so expected to be bang there nudged up just 1 lb.
Scored on soft ground at Nottingham last time; enters calculations up just 1lb.
6

Lerwick

3
3/1(-33%)
(6) Lerwick 3/1, Improved form to get off the mark in 7-runner handicap at Pontefract (8f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Up 4 lb but this longer trip should suit so he's very much one to consider.
Made all at Pontefract last month and looks open to further improvement in handicaps.
5
3rd (5) Poet's Dawn (4/1 +20%)
Poet's Dawn

4
4/1(+20%)
(5) Poet's Dawn 4/1, C&D winner who arrives in good order, second of 8 in handicap at this C&D (soft) 16 days ago. In the mix once more.
Runner-up over C&D 16 days ago; 1lb below last winning mark.

Casilli

6.5
6.5/1(+19%)
(3) Casilli 6.5/1, C&D winner who hinted at a revival when third of 8 in handicap at this C&D (soft) 16 days ago. Can go well off the same mark.
Respectable third, one place behind Poet's Dawn, here last month.

11/1(+21%)
(7) Vallamorey 11/1, Winner at Doncaster in April but in and out since, only fifth of 6 in handicap at Catterick (12.1f) 12 days ago. Others appeal more.
Return to forecast slower ground may help; spring win came on soft.
4
6th (4) Very Excellent (33/1 -371%)
Very Excellent

33
33/1(-371%)
(4) Very Excellent 33/1, Got off the mark for his current yard in 5-runner handicap at Beverley (9.9f, soft) 14 days ago. Needs considering despite taking a 2 lb rise.
Won a muddling race at Beverley; not certain to back up that form.
1
7th (1) Strawman (5.5/1 +8%)
Strawman

5.5
5.5/1(+8%)
(1) Strawman 5.5/1, C&D winner who wasn't disgraced when fifth of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f) 9 days ago. Can make his presence felt eased 1 lb now.
Has a respectable record (3133) at Ripon and he's on a workable mark.
LTO Selection:

17:05 Ripon Handicap (Class 4) 10f Race Class Flow

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

LERWICK made all to strike by two lengths over a mile at Pontefract last time and as he only carries 4lb extra, which could easily underestimate that success, the three-year-old can make it a double. The main danger could be Poet's Dawn, who was a good second over C&D in this grade on his latest outing and has to be respected off 1lb higher. Last-time-out victor Zarabanda completes the shortlist.

A few with chances but ZARABANDA handles soft ground very well so edges the vote nudged up only 1 lb for her recent Nottingham success. Pontefract scorer Lerwick rates a big threat now stepped up in distance, with in-form C&D winner Poet's Dawn also not taken lightly.

Unexposed LERWICK (nap) is taken to prove suited by the new trip and follow up his Pontefract success. Zarabanda is feared most.

0.73/1(-28%)
(1) Eastern Charm 0.73/1, Enjoying a most productive campaign and completed the hat-trick in 7-runner handicap at Sandown (1m, heavy) 5 days ago. Showed a good attitude to score readily last time and she can defy a penalty with further progress to come.

Nothing particularly compelling about his 7f efforts for new stable this year.

Went close in first-time blinkers at Beverley six days ago; fighting chance off same mark.

Maiden; non-stayer over 1m2f here last time; generally consistent at up to 1m.

Improvement looks possible dropped back to 1m on second handicap attempt.

25
25/1(-127%)
(5) Global Crisis 25/1, In first-time blinkers, made the frame but was below form when fourth of 8 in handicap at Leicester (6f, soft) 12 days ago. Needs to find more having his first try at 1m.
Doesn't appear to be crying out for this new trip.
LTO Selection:

17:40 Ripon Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

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

EASTERN CHARM has shown her incredible versatility recently with three victories all coming on different types of going. Therefore, the daughter of Kodiac is likely to prove difficult to beat, despite her 6lb penalty. Violeta could put up the biggest fight, as a drop back to a mile seems a good move, while Mister Sox makes the most appeal of the remainder.

EASTERN CHARM continued her progress when scoring readily at Sandown 5 days ago and she can defy a penalty to land a fifth win of the season. The biggest threat could come from Mister Sox, who produced his best effort to date when runner-up at Beverley last time, while Violeta is capable on a going day.

Improving filly EASTERN CHARM could well extend her winning sequence. Mister Sox is feared most.

About U.K Horse Racing

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
