(7) Metallo 40/1, Twelfth of 13 in minor event at Newbury (6.5f, firm, 12/1) on debut 13 days ago. Significantly more is required.

3.5
3.5/1(-40%)
(3) Dancing Gemini 3.5/1, Foaled April 1. Camelot colt. Dam 2-y-o 1m winner who stayed 1¼m. No forlorn hope.

4.5/1(-29%)
(9) Watcha Matey 4.5/1, Twice-raced colt, better effort when second of 7 in minor event at Haydock (6f, firm) 14 days ago. May do better still so he's one to consider.
Sets a fair standard on his second at Haydock and he's open to more progress upped in trip.

Crimson Road

6
6/1(+0%)
(2) Crimson Road 6/1, 26,000 foal, 55,000 yeearling. Dam, maiden (stayed 7f), closely related to smart 5f-7f winner Rose Bonheur out of smart winner up to 1m (2-y-o 7f winner) Red Feather. In the mix.
55,000gns yearling; yard is in good form and interesting to see how he figures in market.

(4) Jubilee Walk 4.5/1, Foaled May 8. €185,000 yearling, Study of Man colt. Half-brother to several winners, including 6f-7f winner Seychelloise and 6f winner Sablonne, both useful. Dam 2-y-o 5f/5.5f winner. Interesting.

Unreal Connection

25
25/1(+0%)
(11) Unreal Connection 25/1, Foaled March 26. 20,000 gns foal, 22,000 gns yearling, Calyx filly. Half-sister to 1½m winner Sophie Gray and useful 2m/16.2f winner Platform Nineteen. Betting can prove a good indicator.
Has plenty of stamina in pedigree and she's probably a longer-term prospect.

Aragon Castle

7/1(-8%)
(1) Aragon Castle 7/1, Foaled March 8. €32,000 foal, 120,000 gns yearling, Territories colt. Half-brother to winner abroad by Make Believe. Dam twice-raced half-sister to very smart winner up to 7f Ouqba. Greatly respected.

(6) Mad Punter 4.5/1, Seventh of 13 in minor event (11/1) at Newbury (6.5f, firm) on debut 13 days ago. Needs to build on it.

Yard 2-34 with 2yos this season and others are preferred.
LTO Selection:

14:10 Salisbury Maiden (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Watcha Matey sets the standard of those to have raced after stepping forward from his introduction to fill the runner-up spot at Haydock. He may put that experience to good use against some interesting newcomers, but JUBILEE WALK cost 185,000 euros at the Goffs Orby sale and James Ferguson's colt, who is related to several winners, gets the vote to make a winning debut. Aragon Castle and Dancing Gemini are others worth noting.

The market should reveal plenty in this juvenile maiden and James Ferguson's JUBILEE WALK, bred to be useful, is taken to go in at the first time of asking ahead of fellow newcomer Aragon Castle. Watcha Matey appeals as the best of those with experience and can claim minor honours once more.

The vote goes to WATCHA MATEY, who sets a fair standard on his second at Haydock and is open to more progress on this step up in trip.

4
1st (4) Just Glamorous (22/1 -100%)
Just Glamorous

22
22/1(-100%)
(4) Just Glamorous 22/1, C&D winner who drew a blank in a light 2022 campaign. Record fresh isn't particularly encouraging but he's been given a major chance by the assessor.
Won this in 2021 but he generally struggled last season; plenty to prove on comeback.
5
2nd (5) Stone Circle (10/1 -25%)
Stone Circle

10
10/1(-25%)
(5) Stone Circle 10/1, Well prepared to make a winning reappearance at Yarmouth. Struggled to hit the same heights since, though there were excuses at Haydock a fortnight ago.
Won off this mark in April but he's not easy to predict and was laboured last time.
1
3rd (1) Sampers Seven (1.25/1 +44%)
Sampers Seven

1.25
1.25/1(+44%)
(1) Sampers Seven 1.25/1, Faced a stiff task but ran well when 4 lengths seventh of 16 to Happy Romance in listed race at Bath on return. Ran to similar level back in handicap company when third at Thirsk and not disgraced when mid-field in the "Dash" subsequently. This is easier.
On dangerous mark and she could make a bold bid on this big drop back in grade.
3
4th (3) Saaheq (4.5/1 +18%)
Saaheq

4.5
4.5/1(+18%)
(3) Saaheq 4.5/1, Dropped a long way in the weights and successful twice for new connections at Chelmsford in recent months. Poorly drawn and not ideally placed as a result at Beverley last time and in the circumstances, he shaped as though still in good nick.
Two AW wins this year but his last turf success was two years ago; others preferred.
6
5th (6) Redredrobin (2.75/1 +21%)
Redredrobin

2.75
2.75/1(+21%)
(6) Redredrobin 2.75/1, Completely different proposition this year, posting another dominant performance when making all for win number 3 of the campaign here 10 days ago. That was over 6f but no surprise were she to prove as effective over 5f.
Has won five of her last ten including over 6f here last time; respected under a penalty.

6th (2) Grandfather Tom (9/1 -170%)
Grandfather Tom

9
9/1(-170%)
(2) Grandfather Tom 9/1, Is now an 8-y-o but he's in the form of his life, completing the hat-trick at Leicester in comfortable fashion 11 days ago. 6 lb rise forces him into a better race but he's clearly thriving.
8yo who has won four of his last five starts and is as good as ever; big player again.
LTO Selection:

14:40 Salisbury Handicap (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Grandfather Tom completed a quickfire hat-trick at Leicester, but he has had the benefit of his jockeys' claims on his last couple of starts and faces a stiffer task. With that in mind, the vote goes to REDREDROBIN, who is another arriving in fine fettle, making it three wins from her last four starts over 6f here, and Malcolm Saunders' mare is unlikely to have any issue dropping back in trip. Saaheq and Just Glamorous appeal most of the remainder.

This is a drop in class for SAMPERS SEVEN and representing a yard in excellent order, she gets the vote in favour of the thriving pair Grandfather Tom and Redredrobin.

The vote goes to GRANDFATHER TOM (nap), who has won four of his last five starts and was as good as ever at Leicester 11 days ago.

0.73
0.73/1(+34%)
(6) Equity Law 0.73/1, Well bred and made a pleasing start to his career when 2 lengths second on his C&D debut 15 days ago. The one to beat with improvement likely.
Made a good start with his front-running second over C&D two weeks ago; big player.
10
2nd (10) Key To Cotai (20/1 +39%)
Key To Cotai

20
20/1(+39%)
(10) Key To Cotai 20/1, 25/1, sixth of 11 in novice at Windsor (6f, good to soft) on debut 16 days ago. May do better.
Never involved at Windsor two weeks ago and she needs to leave that form well behind.

3rd (1) Rednblue Sovereign (4/1 -14%)
Rednblue Sovereign

4
4/1(-14%)
(1) Rednblue Sovereign 4/1, Better with each start, finishing second of 9 at Sandown (7f, good, 18/1) 12 days ago. Unlikely to be far away if as effective back at 6f.
Clear second at Sandown last time and he's open to more progress back in trip; respected.

Daymer Bay

18
18/1(+0%)
(5) Daymer Bay 18/1, 10/3, third of 7 in C&D novice (firm) on debut 15 days ago, running green under pressure. Open to progress with that experience under his belt.
Some promise over C&D two weeks ago but he needs plenty of progress on his second start.
4
5th (4) Sleven (7/1 +36%)
Sleven

7
7/1(+36%)
(4) Sleven 7/1, 60,000 gns 2-y-o. Acclamation brother to 5f winner Banafsajjy. Dam, maiden (stayed 1½m), half-sister to smart winner up to 6f Justice Good. In good hands and it'll be interesting to see how much strength there is behind him in the market.
Yard has 17% record with 2yos this season and he's an interesting newcomer.
2
6th (2) States (28/1 -211%)
States

28
28/1(-211%)
(2) States 28/1, Best effort in 3 outings in the spring when third of 14 at Newmarket (6f) 6 weeks ago but he'll need to up his game again to go close here.
Promising third at Newmarket (6f) last time and has claims if he can build on that.
3
7th (3) Luas (10/1 +38%)
Luas

10
10/1(+38%)
(3) Luas 10/1, 52,000 gns Dark Angel colt. Dam unraced half-sister to very smart 5f (including Prix de l'Abbaye de Longchamp) winner Wizz Kid out of useful 6.7f winner Lidanski. One to note in the betting on debut.
Plenty to like on paper but yard is 0-14 with 2yos this season.
7
8th (7) Never Dream (28/1 -40%)
Never Dream

28
28/1(-40%)
(7) Never Dream 28/1, 28,000 gns Showcasing colt. Dam unraced, half-sister to smart 1¼m/10.4f winner Libel Law out of smart 1¼m-1½m winner (stayed 14.6f) Innuendo. One of 2 runners for the stable. The betting should help guide to expectations.
Has good standard to aim at on debut and he could be a longer-term prospect.
8
9th (8) Royal Blaze (25/1 -178%)
Royal Blaze

25
25/1(-178%)
(8) Royal Blaze 25/1, Promise amidst greenness on both starts, nearest at the finish when second of 6 in 6f Brighton maiden 15 days ago. Should be more to come from him.
Eyecatching second at Brighton last time but he needs another major step forward here.
LTO Selection:

15:10 Salisbury Stakes (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Ralph Beckett has already sent out two juvenile winners here this season and SLEVEN may well add to that tally. A 60,000gns purchase at the Craven Breeze-Up sale, the son of Acclamation is expected to know his job and could potentially get the better of rivals that have already shown promise, including Equity Law, who finished runner-up over C&D on debut. Rednblue Sovereign and Luas complete the shortlist.

Quite a valuable prize for a novice and it can go the way of EQUITY LAW who shaped well on his C&D debut a fortnight ago. Rednblue Sovereign took another step forward when runner-up over 7f at Sandown last time and can provide the chief threat unless the betting vibes are strong surrounding Ralph Beckett newcomer Sleven.

Top of the list is EQUITY LAW, who made a bold bid when runner-up over C&D two weeks ago and sets a good standard on that debut form.

Bluelight Bay

9
9/1(-38%)
(5) Bluelight Bay 9/1, Fairly useful form last year and, having been gelded, ran better than on his first start this season when mid-field at Epsom at the beginning of the month, though off the bridle a long way out. Needs to find more again, but step up in trip could suit.
Mark is falling but he's now 1-6 and needs to raise his game at this new trip.

Top Secret

5.5
5.5/1(+45%)
(3) Top Secret 5.5/1, Won at Kempton on his final 2 starts last year and ran well after 6 months off when second at Newbury (1m) in May. However, failed to come on for his return when down the field back at Newbury (7f) 13 days ago. Could bounce back given his previous form.
His form dipped at Newbury (7f) 13 days ago and he needs to step up again after that.
2
3rd (2) Zozimus (22/1 -175%)
Zozimus

22
22/1(-175%)
(2) Zozimus 22/1, Useful sort for Donnacha O'Brien in 2021 (fourth in Cambridgeshire at Newmarket that season) before missing last year. Took a step forward from his stable debut when sixth of 8 at Beverley (7.4f) last time and could build on that.
Missed 2022 and he's finished down the field in two runs for new yard this season.
1
4th (1) Helm Rock (2.5/1 +38%)
Helm Rock

2.5
2.5/1(+38%)
(1) Helm Rock 2.5/1, Registered 3 victories during second half of last year, the latest at Haydock (1m) in September. Has been holding his form well since his return, faring best of those who helped force the pace when fourth at Sandown (1m) 11 days ago. Respected.
Has reached the frame in his last three runs and he should give it another good shot.
4
5th (4) Skysail (4/1 -60%)
Skysail

4
4/1(-60%)
(4) Skysail 4/1, Off the mark at the second attempt at 2 yrs and, in first-time blinkers, showed much improved form when making a successful handicap debut at Goodwood (1m) on his reappearance. Remains unexposed at this trip and he can score again.
Made it 2-4 with impressive win on his handicap debut at Goodwood; big player again up 8lb.
7
6th (7) Swift Lioness (6.5/1 -44%)
Swift Lioness

6.5
6.5/1(-44%)
(7) Swift Lioness 6.5/1, Having won twice last year, left her reappearance run behind back down in trip when resuming winning ways at Southwell (8.1f) 15 days ago, staying on to lead final strides. Could still have more to offer so she's not taken lightly.
Made it 3-7 when beating a clear second at Southwell; up 7lb in this tougher race.
6
7th (6) Zu Run (3.2/1 +42%)
Zu Run

3.2
3.2/1(+42%)
(6) Zu Run 3.2/1, Progressed with each outing as a juvenile, off the mark in a Chelmsford novice (7f) on second of 3 starts. Failed to meet expectations on seasonal/handicap debut at York (7f) in May, but it remains early days so he's not one to be writing off.
Down the field on handicap debut at York and he needs more progress on this step up to 1m.
LTO Selection:

15:40 Salisbury Handicap (Class 2) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

SKYSAIL appeals as just the type to continue improving after a comfortable success on his return at Goodwood last month. The son of Tasleet relished the step up to a mile on that occasion and he should have too much for surprise Southwell winner Swift Lioness and Helm Rock, who has been knocking on the door of late with some solid efforts in defeat.

In first-time blinkers, SKYSAIL relished the longer trip when making a winning handicap debut at Goodwood on his return and he can follow up with further progress to come. Swift Lioness also arrives on the back of a win last time out and could be the main danger, while Helm Rock can give another good account.

Top of the list is SKYSAIL, who improved his record to 2-4 when bolting up on his handicap debut at Goodwood last month.

Grabbed second of nine in novice at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) in May; leading contender.

Showed significant ability and potential but may find that one or two are too good for him.

200-1 and hooded, slowly away when tailed off in novice here (7f, good to firm) recently.
LTO Selection:

16:10 Salisbury Maiden (Class 4) 10f Race Class Flow

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

RAJASTHAN ran two highly creditable races as a two-year-old behind some classy individuals and he should be primed to go on his return. The step up in trip is a major plus and the well-bred son of Dubawi gets the vote ahead of Spectacular Style, who ran a race full of promise when second to a stable companion of the selection's on debut at Redcar. Sgian Dubh is one with experience of the track and could benefit from the drop in distance.

A 625,000 gns yearling son of Frankel, SPECTACULAR STYLE shaped promisingly amidst clear greenness when finishing runner-up at Redcar last month and with above-average improvement a distinct possibility, Roger Varian's 3-y-o is fancied to go a place better at the expense of Rajasthan, who showed plenty of ability when placed on both outings last year. Sgian Dubh can fill out third spot.

This rests between SPECTACULAR STYLE and Rajasthan. The former looks sure to step up significantly from his debut second.

Came from mid-division when creditable fourth of 13 at Epsom (1m2f); probably stays 1m4f.

6.5
6.5/1(-30%)
(8) Krona 6.5/1, Much improved for a step up in trip when bolting up on handicap debut at Kempton in February before following up under a penalty at Southwell 6 days later. 10 lb higher again but is almost certain to continue progressing and she has to be taken seriously switched back to turf.
Transformed when handicapping in February on AW, running away with two 1m4f races.
LTO Selection:

16:40 Salisbury Handicap (Class 3) 12f Race Class Flow

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

Krona has shown significant improvement since going handicapping, bolting up at Kempton and Southwell. She will need to transfer that form to the turf, though, so she is passed over in favour of NADER KING, who could improve for this step up in trip after he was beaten into third behind a subsequent Royal Ascot winner over 1m2f at Newbury. Maasai Mara takes a step down in grade following a good fourth at the Derby meeting and has to be respected.

A competitive 3-y-o handicap, with the bottom-weight KRONA fancied to land the hat-trick after completing a quickfire double on AW in February. Gozo took a significant step forward on his handicap debut at Haydock last time and is feared most, with Nader King also open to progress stepped up further in trip.

Preference is for MAASAI MARA following his staying-on fourth over 1m2f in a better race at Epsom. Nader King is next best.

5/1(-25%)
(8) Racing Demon 5/1, Consistent sort who found a bit of improvement to open his account at Chepstow last time. This is tougher race but he should give his running once more.
Has been in good form since April and he won at Chepstow (1m) last time; respected up 3lb.

2.12/1(+29%)
(2) Vegas Jack 2.12/1, Proved a different proposition on handicap bow/return when third of 9 at Haydock and filled the same position at Goodwood last time. Still not fully exposed and likely to be on the premises.
Still has potential after only five starts and he could kick on again back at this trip.

5.5/1(+21%)
(1) Fariba 5.5/1, Fair performer who hasn't bene on her game the last twice but wasn't ideally placed at Pontefract last time. Can't be ruled out entirely.
Sole win was in a 2yo AW maiden and has been well held in handicaps this season.

(3) Perfect Gentleman 7/1, Dual winner at Kempton this year and showed himself equally effective on turf when runner-up at Yarmouth last time. Capable of going one better.
Dual Kempton winner who bounced back with a good second at Yarmouth last time; respected.

Lunar Landscape

9/1(+18%)
(6) Lunar Landscape 9/1, Caught the eye on debut last year and, while he has failed to build on that, he's likely to strip fitter for his reappearance at Kempton. Not completely dismissed on first go in handicaps.
Well held in last two novice runs and has a bit to prove back up in trip on handicap debut.

18/1(-50%)
(4) Guiteau 18/1, Failed to progress for David Loughnane. Has been picked up cheaply and gelded since (has been off 6 months) and joined a stable that's having a fruitful campaign.
Five-race maiden who has not really progressed and has something to prove on stable debut.

7th (5) Goodwood Vision (4.5/1 +10%)
Goodwood Vision

4.5
4.5/1(+10%)
(5) Goodwood Vision 4.5/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 9/1, encouraging third of 8 in minor event at Goodwood (6f, good) 8 months ago. Trainer's runners often progress once handicapping, so worth a market check with Oisin Murphy booked.
Unexposed handicap newcomer and she looks a possible improver on this step up to 1m.

Commission

22/1(+12%)
(7) Commission 22/1, Lightly-raced maiden who failed to beat a rival at Goodwood on handicap debut recently. Hard to make a case for.

LTO Selection:

17:10 Salisbury Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

PERFECT GENTLEMAN put a Kempton disappointment behind him when runner-up at Yarmouth and he only has to compete off a 1lb higher rating. He is also aided by the services of Harry Davies, who claims 3lb, so he might be tough to beat. Racing Demon stuck his neck out to triumph at Chepstow and he can go well once more off 3lb higher, while Commission's handicap debut on his Goodwood comeback was ordinary but he can't be written off just yet.

PERFECT GENTLEMAN is generally progressive and stayed on nicely to finish second at Yarmouth last time, so he's fancied to get back to winning ways. Vegas Jack is in good form and could pose the main threat, although Goodwood Vision is a likely improver on handicap debut.

An open race in which recent Chepstow winner RACING DEMON gets the vote ahead of Perfect Gentleman and Vegas Jack.

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.
