14:10 Salisbury Stakes (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Deteriorating ground conditions will make this hard work for some inexperienced juveniles, but EUPATOR could revel in the mud. Richard Hannon's charge is likely to appreciate further in time but stamina may come to the fore on this ground and it would come as no surprise were he to make a winning start. Another who should handle testing ground is the filly Perfect Your Craft, while stablemate Too Don Juan heads the remainder.
This will go to one of the newcomers, with Futurity entry EUPATOR chanced before betting clues. Ralph Beckett has a tremendous record in this contest and saddles a very appealing pair of runners in Perfect Your Craft and Too Don Juan.
Ralph Beckett's record in this earns PERFECT YOUR CRAFT the vote. He also runs Too Don Juan. Eupator has a Gr 1 Futurity entry.
(3) Launceston 150/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 125/1, last of 6 in novice at Redcar (7f, good) 8 days ago. One for handicaps up in trip. Poor form in three runs in August/September; he'll be of more interest next year.
8
1st (8) (6/4 +0%) Chantilly Lace
1.5
6/4(+0%)
(8) Chantilly Lace 6/4, Foaled March 16. 375,000 gns yearling, Lope De Vega filly. Half-sister to several winners, including high-class 6f winner Ten Sovereigns and ungenuine 6.7f winner Eden Quay. Highly respected on debut. 375,000gns half-sister to top-class Ten Sovereigns (RPR 125); yard run two; likely type.
2
2nd (2) (3/1 +33%) Char
3
3/1(+33%)
(2) Char 3/1, Foaled February 5. €38,000 foal, 60,000 gns yearling, New Bay colt. Dam, third at 1m in France on sole start, half-sister to smart 2-y-o 6f winner (stayed 1m) Rahiyah from an excellent family. Noteworthy newcomer. 60,000gns yearling; dam a well-related maiden; market confidence would heighten interest.
1
3rd (1) (2/1 +33%) Brize Norton
2
2/1(+33%)
(1) Brize Norton 2/1, Twice-raced maiden. Fourth of 11 in novice at this course (6f, good to firm, 15/2) 34 days ago, not knocked about. Likely to improve again but probably vulnerable to a newcomer or two. Both runs left impression he's capable of better; encouragement for slow ground on paper.
7
4th (7) (9/1 -13%) Tremolo
9
9/1(-13%)
(7) Tremolo 9/1, Foaled February 13. Bated Breath gelding. Half-brother to 8.6f winner Yeoman. Dam, 1m/8.3f winner, closely related to smart 7f-1¼m winner Tiffany. Half-brother to 8.6f AW winner Yeoman (RPR 86); yard's 2yos often better for a run.
6
5th (6) (50/1 -213%) Top Of Pleinmont
50
50/1(-213%)
(6) Top Of Pleinmont 50/1, Foaled February 4. 35,000 gns yearling, Recorder colt. Half-brother to smart 9f-1½m winner Naval College and 1m/8.6f winner Desert Caravan. Market may point the way. Half-brother to 2 useful winners out of winning half-sister to Sinndar; appealing pedigree.

14:40 Salisbury Stakes (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
A half-sister to the classy Ten Sovereigns, CHANTILLY LACE looks the part on paper and with ground conditions unlikely to inconvenience her, Ralph Beckett's filly is fancied to score at the first time of asking. Stall eight might not be the kindest draw, but the New Bay colt Char must enter calculations, while Brize Norton is most appealing of those with previous experience.
CHANTILLY LACE is a very appealing sort on paper and gets the vote before market clues. Char and Pakal are also of firm interest in a novice the newcomers could dominate.
Ralph Beckett saddles two strong contenders in Brize Norton and CHANTILLY LACE. The well-bred filly can make a winning debut.
(1) Bob Mali 11/10, Maintained unbeaten record in 8-runner novice at Chester (6.1f, heavy, 5/4) 20 days ago, well on top finish. Should progress again so he's on the shortlist. Unbeaten winner over 6f on good to soft and heavy; this stiff 6f looks sure to suit.
4
2nd (4) (9/1 +18%) Marvelman
9
9/1(+18%)
(4) Marvelman 9/1, Foaled March 17. 140,000 gns yearling, Invincible Spirit colt. Dam maiden, sister to smart 1m winner (stayed 10.5f) Volta and half-sister to smart winner up to 12.5f Calvados Blues. Displayed ability amidst obvious greenness when fifth of 8 at Newmarket in June. Sure to progress. Useful pedigree but major improvement needed on 7f debut at Newmarket in June.
2
3rd (2) (18/1 -29%) Rock Hunter
18
18/1(-29%)
(2) Rock Hunter 18/1, Well prepared to make a winning start at Chantilly (5f, heavy) and runner-up next 2 starts. Hasn't progressed, however, looking half-hearted in sales race at York last time fitted with tongue tie. Gelded. Won 5f debut but not gone on from spring form and stamina still to prove at 6f.
5
4th (5) (85/40 -93%) Persian Spirit
2.125
85/40(-93%)
(5) Persian Spirit 85/40, Foaled February 15. Invincible Spirit filly. Dam lightly-raced sister to very smart 1¼m/10.4f winner Danadana and useful 1¾m-16.6f winner Zeeband. Ignored in the betting but travelled with plenty of zest when making a winning start at Newbury a month ago. More to come so plenty to like. Unfancied but highly promising 6f debut when winning on soft at Newbury; should improve.
3
5th (3) (6/1 -9%) Ardennes
6
6/1(-9%)
(3) Ardennes 6/1, Good fourth of 16 in a hot nursery at Goodwood (6f) in August before flying too high in listed company at York last time. Eased in class and the one to beat on the pick of his form. C&D winner in June; unraced on slower than good and has to prove himself in the mud.
6
6th (6) (150/1 -582%) Ejuna
150
150/1(-582%)
(6) Ejuna 150/1, Foaled May 13. €50,000 foal, 20,000 gns 2-y-o, Invincible Spirit filly. Closely related to useful winner up to 1m Maystar and winner up to 7f Pocket The Packet. This is no easy introduction. Two siblings won as 2yos but tackles warm race on debut; likely to improve for the run.
15:15 Salisbury Stakes (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
BOB MALI was able to defy a penalty in comfortable fashion at Chester last month and, although Ollie Sangster's colt will need more to maintain his unbeaten record, he could be up to the task. Persian Spirit outran a big price when winning on her debut at Newbury and she merits respect in receipt of 5lb, while Rock Hunter, another who should handle forecast ground conditions, could also have a say.
PERSIAN SPIRIT created a fine impression when making a winning debut at Newbury a month ago and in receipt of weight from most, is fancied to remain unbeaten. Ardennes will find this easier than the listed race he contested last time so he commands respect, along with hat-trick seeking colt Bob Mali.
Bob Mali and PERSIAN SPIRIT make much the most appeal as they are the two who have shown they are suited by 6f in testing conditions
(1) Amazonian Dream 28/1, Has been in very good form over 6f at Windsor this summer, winning twice and placed on 3 other occasions. Not seen to best effect when fifth of 9 in handicap at Yarmouth 2 weeks ago and whilst he's yet to defy a mark this high, he was a good third in this race 12 months ago. Has won on soft but best on quick surfaces; needs improvement on 3rd in this last year.
9
1st (9) (13/2 -86%) Nariko
6.5
13/2(-86%)
(9) Nariko 13/2, Produced a career best when winning 15-runner handicap at Haydock (6f, good to soft) in May, keeping on well. Off since but that form has worked out well and a 7 lb rise may not be enough to prevent another bold bid with Oisin Murphy again in the saddle. Off since May when impressive in her first 6f handicap on soft; up 7lb; interesting.
14
2nd (14) (11/2 +54%) Land Of Magic
5.5
11/2(+54%)
(14) Land Of Magic 11/2, Bagged a third career success over C&D last month and matched that level from 4 lb higher mark when 1¼ lengths second of 9 to Solar Aclaim in handicap at Goodwood (6f, heavy) 8 days ago. Each-way possibilities again in a competitive affair. C&D winner last month; weights chance with Solar Aclaim on form since but more needed.
5
3rd (5) (11/4 +54%) Solar Aclaim
2.75
11/4(+54%)
(5) Solar Aclaim 11/4, 3-y-o who is building up a solid profile on soft/heavy, bouncing back to his best when winning 9-runner handicap at Goodwood (6f, heavy, 16/1) 8 days ago. No surprise to see him out under a penalty and another with claims in a competitive affair. Return to heavy ground was ideal at Goodwood last week; competitive under penalty.
2
4th (2) (7/1 +0%) Executive Decision
7
7/1(+0%)
(2) Executive Decision 7/1, Useful handicapper, successful at Goodwood and Chepstow (both 6f) last summer and highlighted her turn may be imminent when second of 5 in handicap at Newmarket (6f, heavy) 7 days ago. Very much one to bear in mind from this mark. Good 2023 season; slow to peak this year but back to form at Newmarket last week.
11
5th (11) (25/1 -56%) Grenham Bay
25
25/1(-56%)
(11) Grenham Bay 25/1, C&D winner. Respectable 2½ lengths fourth of 10 to Bishop's Crown in handicap at this C&D (good to soft, 11/1) 20 days ago. Fallen back down to last winning mark ahead of this but others appeal more for win purposes. C&D winner in May 2023; yet to race on soft and needs to improve for it.
3
6th (3) (12/1 -50%) Under The Twilight
12
12/1(-50%)
(3) Under The Twilight 12/1, Made it 3-3 here when landing this race 12 months ago. Added to her tally on return at Windsor during the spring and best effort since when ninth of 16 back there last month (unlucky not finish closer having encountered traffic problems). One to consider. Made it 3-3 here when winning this last year; back on winning mark; can go well.
4
7th (4) (17/2 -6%) Bishop's Crown
8.5
17/2(-6%)
(4) Bishop's Crown 17/2, Bright start to the campaign when winning at Windsor prior to finishing runner-up at Goodwood (6f, heavy) in May. Back at that level of late, cheekpieces refitted when landing 10-runner C&D handicap 3 weeks ago. Respected nudged up 3 lb. Won 3-7 over 6f since last August, including on soft; might improve on C&D win latest.
10
8th (10) (66/1 -100%) Bourgeoisie
66
66/1(-100%)
(10) Bourgeoisie 66/1, Lightly-raced maiden who finished runner-up on 3 of her 4 starts at 2 yrs. Opening mark looked high enough and she failed to come on for a recent run when eleventh of 16 in handicap at Newbury (7f, good to firm) 35 days ago. Others stronger returned to sprinting. Maiden; not yet lived up to 2yo form in two runs this year; easier handicaps await.
6
9th (6) (14/1 -17%) The Good Biscuit
14
14/1(-17%)
(6) The Good Biscuit 14/1, Runner-up for the second time in 6f handicaps this summer when going down by only a head at Ripon (good) in June. Had a break since so fresh going into the autumn. Respected up just 2 lb for all this rates tougher. Both wins on good to firm; acts on soft; needs extra if he's to cope with some mudlovers.
8
10th (8) (13/2 +46%) Noel Fox
6.5
13/2(+46%)
(8) Noel Fox 13/2, Steadily progressive 3-y-o, who doubled her tally in 3-runner Lingfield handicap (5f) in June. Found life tougher when tenth in 16-runner handicap at Glorious Goodwood (5f) 63 days ago but she's in good hands and may yet have more to offer. Unproven on this sort of ground, however. C&D maiden winner; had few chances but still to prove she stays 6f on difficult ground.
12
11th (12) (14/1 -27%) Arnaz
14
14/1(-27%)
(12) Arnaz 14/1, Winner at Brighton in May. 3/1, creditable third of 9 in handicap at Newbury (6f, soft) 28 days ago, keeping on without threatening front pair. Claims of hitting the frame again for all a return to 7f may suit ideally. Sole win came over 7f but useful 6f form at Newbury (soft) last month; not far away.
7
12th (7) (33/1 -65%) Tyger Bay
33
33/1(-65%)
(7) Tyger Bay 33/1, Landed back-to-back handicaps at Catterick/Bath in April. Below form in pair of AW handicaps following a mid-season break of late but his mark is steadily easing at least. Running back into form but soft-ground wins in April came in easier races than this.
13
13th (13) (25/1 -127%) Snuggle
25
25/1(-127%)
(13) Snuggle 25/1, Latest win at Windsor (6f) in April. 18/1, good length second of 10 to Bishop's Crown in handicap at this C&D (good to soft) 20 days ago. No reason why he won't give another good account. Versatile ground-wise; fair C&D run latest; this will need more.
15:50 Salisbury Handicap (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Several hold chances and the betting market surrounding the likes of last-time-out C&D winner Bishop's Crown, the in-form Solar Aclaim and top-weight Amazonian Dream should be informative. However, it may be worth taking a chance on EXECUTIVE DECISION, who was just nabbed close to the line off this mark at Newmarket last week. She could be tough to stop in this company with ground conditions still in her favour.
NARIKO showed improved form and was notably strong at the finish when doubling her tally in a race that worked out well at Haydock in the spring. A 7 lb rise for that success looks fair and she could be worth siding with back from a break. Executive Decision knocked firmly on the door at Newmarket recently and she's a serious threat. Solar Aclaim and last year's winner Under The Twilight are others to consider. Bishop's Crown is in the mix too.
Nariko is highly intriguing but preference is for last year's winner UNDER THE TWILIGHT who has such a good record here.
(11) High Point 12/1, 7/2, last of 8 in handicap at Sandown (10f, good) 15 days ago, possibly amiss. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Dropped to a handy mark but has a bit to prove. Ended last term with two wins but he finished last in September in his two runs this term.
2
2nd (2) (5/2 +38%) Indemnity
2.5
5/2(+38%)
(2) Indemnity 5/2, Didn't need to be at best when opening his account in a Nottingham maiden (8.3f) in June. Creditable efforts since, not staying the straightest up in trip at Doncaster last time. One to consider back down in grade/distance. Has never finished far away, but expensive to follow with sole win at 1-2 in a maiden.
4
3rd (4) (9/1 +10%) Expert Witness
9
9/1(+10%)
(4) Expert Witness 9/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Epsom in August. Eighth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW, 25/1) 28 days ago. Progressed this season before heavy defeat when 25-1 last time (first AW race this term).
8
4th (8) (5/2 +55%) New Chelsea
2.5
5/2(+55%)
(8) New Chelsea 5/2, Winner at Windsor in June. 7/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Kempton (11f) 36 days ago. Visor on 1st time/has had breathing operation since last seen. Looks competitive on form. Disappointing on last two starts, which has led to wind surgery and today's visor.
9
5th (9) (15/2 -88%) Odin Legacy
7.5
15/2(-88%)
(9) Odin Legacy 15/2, Lightly-raced maiden. 18/1, good third of 9 in handicap at Sandown (10f, soft) 20 days ago. Might not have reached his limit and should give another good account. Progressive in his four races, close third on handicap debut at Sandown (up to 1m2f, soft).
3
6th (3) (6/1 -9%) High Fibre
6
6/1(-9%)
(3) High Fibre 6/1, Fairly useful handicapper, lightly raced and not seen to best effect back from another absence at Kempton last week. One to consider. Shaped well on return but has not figured in his two starts since; favourite on AW latest.
6
7th (6) (9/1 -64%) Bucephalus
9
9/1(-64%)
(6) Bucephalus 9/1, 4/1, creditable second of 11 in handicap hurdle at Ffos Las (15.8f, good) 141 days ago. Fairly useful on the Flat. Not dismissed. Showed his best hurdles form on latest start (May); player if he returns on song.
5
8th (5) (20/1 0%) Gray's Inn
20
20/1(0%)
(5) Gray's Inn 20/1, 50/1, sixth of 9 in handicap at Newbury (10f, soft) 12 days ago. Not easy to make a case for. Outsider all four starts this term and has not made an impact in any of them.
10
9th (10) (33/1 -175%) Throne Hall
33
33/1(-175%)
(10) Throne Hall 33/1, Latest win at Doncaster in March. Won 3-runner minor event hurdle at Bro (18.9f, good) 18 days ago, comfortably. Back down in trip. Fair on the Flat, 4/9 on last Flat outing. 10l win on soft in March; 1lb lower now, having underperformed; recent Swedish hurdle win.
7
10th (7) (150/1 -650%) Kolisi
150
150/1(-650%)
(7) Kolisi 150/1, C&D winner. 13/2, bit below form second of 12 in handicap hurdle at Newton Abbot (16.8f, good to firm). Off 15 months. Tongue strap on for 1st time in this code. Creditable on last Flat outing. His Flat races were in 2021; not seen since 2nd over hurdles on both starts in June 2023.
1
11th (1) (80/1 -400%) Cephalus
80
80/1(-400%)
(1) Cephalus 80/1, Sixth of 8 in handicap (22/1) at Goodwood (7f, good to firm) when last seen, left poorly placed. Off 116 days. Cheekpieces back on. Others more persuasive. Very productive on AW but lots to find on turf form; off since June and stamina to prove.
16:20 Salisbury Handicap (Class 4) 10f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
ODIN LEGACY has bags of scope to improve and, having been beaten by just a length over this distance in similar company at Sandown last month, he's the most intriguing option on just his second try over 1m2f. The class-dropping Indemnity rates a key player at this level and should go well if handling the ground. Similar comments apply to New Chelsea, who is noted with a hood added for his first run after wind surgery.
INDEMNITY has been in good order and this represents a drop in grade for him, so he gets the nod over High Fibre, who is sliding in the weights and has been shaping better than the result this term. Odin Legacy is another one to consider with few miles on the clock.
Question marks left, right and centre. A chance is taken on NEW CHELSEA, ahead of Odin Legacy and Bucephalus.
(5) Berkshire Sundance 15/2, Reared and unseated rider in the stalls in handicap (9/2) at Chester (15.9f, heavy) 20 days ago. Won on final 2023 outing and this will reveal a lot more. Could have potential if there are no alarms, having reared over in the stalls on return.
7
2nd (7) (5/4 +44%) Small Fry
1.25
5/4(+44%)
(7) Small Fry 5/4, Confirmed he's at the very top of his game when winning 13-runner handicap at Chester (14.4f, soft) 12 days ago, cosily. Up 6 lb but remains the one to beat. Won three of six starts for current yard, including a quick double last month; appealing.
4
3rd (4) (11/2 +21%) Crown Of India
5.5
11/2(+21%)
(4) Crown Of India 11/2, Ran up to form when third of 9 in handicap at Sandown (10f, good, 7/1) 34 days ago. Significantly up in trip with a hood back on. Needs to settle much better over new trip; the hood (tried three starts back) returns.
2
4th (2) (7/1 -56%) Road To Wembley
7
7/1(-56%)
(2) Road To Wembley 7/1, Three wins from 8 runs this year. Seventh of 10 in handicap (11/1) at Haydock (14f, good) 26 days ago. Back down in class so he needs considering, Put in his place last time; needs to resume improvement on this very different surface.
9
5th (9) (13/2 +19%) Frankelian
6.5
13/2(+19%)
(9) Frankelian 13/2, Cheekpieces on for first time, creditable sixth of 11 in handicap (10/3) at Haydock (14f, good) 27 days ago. Blinkers now on and she's a consistent operator. Eight-race maiden; trying 1m6f and cheekpieces on latest outing was not her best form.
6
6th (6) (20/1 -11%) Zikany
20
20/1(-11%)
(6) Zikany 20/1, Fairly useful performer but has rarely stood much racing. Almost certainly needed the run after 22 months off when seventh of 10 in handicap (25/1) at Goodwood (14f, soft) 40 days ago. Absent 666 days before soundly beaten at Goodwood this August; well treated on 2022 form.
11
7th (11) (50/1 -52%) Jack The Savage
50
50/1(-52%)
(11) Jack The Savage 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. Modest winner over hurdles. 17/2, below form fourth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Worcester (16f, good) 36 days ago. Tongue strap on first time on the Flat and others more persuasive. Below form latest start over hurdles but overall jumps form means he needs a second look.
10
8th (10) (66/1 -100%) Wilderness
66
66/1(-100%)
(10) Wilderness 66/1, C&D winner. Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. Below form fifth of 10 in handicap (16/1) at Bath (14f, good to firm) 29 days ago. Blinkers back on and he doesn't look an easy ride. No win since July 2022; 2nd at Salisbury in June but not so good in her three starts since.
8
9th (8) (25/1 -127%) Nini Star

(8) Nini Star 25/1, Stepped up on previous efforts for this yard when fourth of 9 in handicap at Sandown (10f, soft) 20 days ago. Significantly up in trip, which looks worth exploring. Improved when staying-on fourth of nine in handicap at Sandown (1m2f, soft) last time.

(3) St Pancras 11/1, Successful handicap/stable debut at Pontefract in July. 7/2, third of 5 in handicap at Ripon (12f, good to firm) 53 days ago and he'll need to settle better to get home over this trip. Below form latest; dam won at up to 1m6f; lightly raced, so could still have potential.

150/1(-650%)
(1) Torre Del Oro 150/1, 4/6 and cheekpieces on for first time, fourth of 7 in seller at Goodwood (11.2f, soft). Off 13 months. Up in trip. First run for yard after leaving Andrew Balding but joined another good yard. Claimed out of Andrew Balding's for £20,000; gelded since; others look far more solid.
16:50 Salisbury Handicap (Class 4) 14f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
SMALL FRY has won three of his last four starts and has to be taken seriously once again. Admittedly, this is a deeper race than the one he won at Chester latest and the selection needs to be on his mettle. However, with main rivals St Pancras and Nini Star both needing to prove their stamina, there are still solid reasons to stick with the improving son of Harzand. Road To Wembley completes the shortlist.
SMALL FRY recorded his third win from his last 4 outings in ready fashion at Chester 12 days ago and is fancied to shrug off another hike in the weights. Road To Wembley is back in class and that should mean he bounces back, with Frankelian likely to give it another good shot.
Having won three of his last four starts SMALL FRY (nap) rather stands out. St Pancras, a more lightly raced 3yo, is next best.

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.
